1. breathin
2. no tears left to cry 3. get well soon 4. goodnight n go 5. better off To be honest my order changes quite a lot.  But these 5 along with 'god is a woman' are by far my favourite and 'no tears left to cry' and 'breathin' are definitely my top 2!

Happy birthday 'Sweetener'!  My hand was forced to stream earlier with the combined power of the anniversary and her new streaming record *.*

Happy Birthday Sweetener! Despite some very high highs, I still think it's her weakest album since Yours Truly. Breathin is possibly my favourite song of hers though.
I was just about to post her tweet about her top 3  Some interesting choices.

Interesting to see her top 3!
I kinda guessed that R.E.M would be one. I seem to feel like she really personally wanted it to be a single. Arianas personal favourites from her albums though tend to be ones the fan base don’t stan much and the tracks she speaks of what she dislikes are major fan favourites (not so much this era bc she recalls this being her favourite album). For me personally tracklist order aside this album is so strong. I love the production on this and the message on certain tracks too. The singles holy trinity too.

Yeah she really adores ‘R.E.M.’ - I remember her being so excited about it during ‘Sweetener’ pre-release interviews. Now she’s even naming her latest perfume after it
it’s definitely grown on me over time but I’d still rank a sizeable chunk of songs on the album ahead of it! I’m glad she didn’t make it a single - that run of three is untouchable

i always skip r.e.m i don’t know why she loves it so much
 i’m still perplexed as to why she stans the pharrell productions, as a few seem to be cast off’s etc, when we know from interviews that she was heavily involved with the max tracks. i put it down to the singles wearing thin because she performs them so much? |

Lol at her still trying to make REM happen!! Ari, sweetie...
I don't mind this album. But if it was anyone else, I doubt I'd have given it more than the one play and just picked out my faves (the 3 singles, sweetener + goodnight n go pretty much) and if the tracklist was more cohesive, I'd be more tolerant towards it tbh. Thankfully a far superior album was released about 6 months later so...

R.E.M was the planned third single wasnt it. iirc at the time she seemed really confused that everyone seemed to really take to breathin in a very instant way.
I kinda wish this era got a few more singles tbh like everytime could’ve done well and then goodnight n go to close the era. I’m in the minority who doesn’t prefer thank u, next to this but I’d say it’s probably her second best album as a whole after this.

I still don't feel like I've ever been so disappointed in an album I'd hyped myself up and had such high hopes for.

A couple of 'Sweetener' outtakes called 'incline' and 'More' have leaked (not sure why that one says from 'Dangerous Woman', all the other leaks have been taken down so maybe it was their way of keeping it up? lol)
I presume these are from when the album was going to be 100% Pharrell? They both sound like his production. Apparently there are several versions of 'More' that exist including a Normani version. I prefer 'incline' out of the two - very catchy - not essential but probably better than a couple of songs that made the cut. |

Incline reminds me of something I've already heard but I can't put my finger on it.
