BuzzJack Music Forum _ Ariana Grande _ break up with your girlfriend, i’m bored • 3rd Single
Posted by: Cqmerqn Feb 7 2019, 07:03 PM
Surprised there isn’t a thread yet, but Ariana has confirmed that this is the next single and the music video drops tomorrow.
I’ve just listened to it and it’s... hideous.

Yep this is so meh 
Posted by: John-James Feb 7 2019, 08:20 PM
It's not as bad as you guys are making it out to be but I'm surprised they are going with this when Bloodlines is saying "sup b*tches"
Posted by: UltraReputation Feb 7 2019, 08:39 PM
Bloodline is gonna do a Breathin I think and end up being the next proper single despite this getting a video
Posted by: Jordan Lee Feb 7 2019, 09:11 PM
Gahhhhh.
I wanna listen but I don’t as I’m hearing it tomorrow anyways.
My Twitter seems to think bloodline and NASA would’ve better choices for single 3 though.

i feel like it must be one of them situations where (as very well we all know with her and her writing team / friends / fam) that they’re all in such a close bubble that ari doesn’t really ask anyone outside of that bubble what they think about the songs that it ends up just being personal to them and the songwriting process or connection sometimes.. which doesn’t really relate to the general public when they just finally want a pop bob again especially when you’re pushing former said single as a now album track and 3rd single from said probably already bought album by then

This sounds good from the snippets but Bloodline is screaming to be released.

Saving this til tomorrow but OMG Charles Melton is in the music video!

As I said in the album thread I'd have Bloodline and Bad Idea before this for sure and then Needy/NASA too, but I do really like this - the production *.* I don't think she needs another trappy single after there was already 7 Rings, like Jake said though I think she just doesn't really care and is in that little bubble of what matters to her and fair enough tbh. She's in a position where she can kind of do that, but it is frustrating when she has songs like Bad Idea and Bloodline, I'll miffed if she does end up just sitting on them 
Tbf in this day and age, it's fairly easy if something takes off to just make it a single anyway, as with Breathin', so they can always see what happens with the songs on the album and this can easily get pushed back if it's not the best single choice.

break up with your girlfriend, i’m bored will be a worldwide smash but it will drop quickly.
What Ariana is doing this era is everything Taylor tried to do with Reputation.
Posted by: La Vie En Code Feb 8 2019, 08:22 AM
Rihanna with the transition between the Loud/Talk That Talk eras is somewhat the same thing just spread across other formats.
Posted by: mdh Feb 8 2019, 08:30 AM
somehow even worse than "7 rings"
Posted by: UltraReputation Feb 8 2019, 08:37 AM
This is starting to grow but it's still one of her weakest singles for me atm
Yeah ngl I don't really get this either, Reputation was an absolute mess of an era which basically turned into Taylor sacrificing the campaign etc in order to regain her reputation (which low-key kinda worked as she's def receiving a lot less hate now then she did a couple of years ago). I agree with Cody that everything Ari has done this era feels more similar to Purpose/Back-to-back RiRi releases

My first listen of the song was watching the video and I'm immediately underwhelmed. It's by far the worst single/music video from this album so far, I'd even go as far as saying her worst single since Yours Truly. I hope it grows on me though, because the concept is fierce and I love the twist at the end of the video
Posted by: Juliano Feb 8 2019, 11:03 AM
It is the worst single of the era, but the video has helped it grow on me a little, as dull as it is. Bloodline and Bad Idea to rescue the era!
Posted by: Conderella Feb 8 2019, 12:32 PM
it's not her most exciting song but I like it
Posted by: blacksquare Feb 8 2019, 12:35 PM
There are so many better choices for singles on the album
Bad Idea is right there~
Posted by: BotchLikeThis Feb 8 2019, 09:19 PM
Personally, I love it and love the video too <3
Posted by: Stu1985 Feb 9 2019, 01:34 AM
Ok I love this.
Posted by: Euphorique Feb 9 2019, 04:37 AM
Another underwhelming single. This era totally doesnt deserve the success that she's having. I'm yet to be wowed. And this is coming from three great singles from Sweetener
Posted by: Theonix Feb 11 2019, 05:18 PM
So I now officially love this *.* I take back what I said about it being her worst single since Yours, Truly!
It's currently #2 in the UK midweeks and only 41 sales behind 7 rings at #1, it's just overtaken the latter on Spotify so expect Ari to replace herself at #1 officially this week! I can't remember the last time a female artist did that in the UK but I'm so pleased for just how huge this era has been already
Posted by: Theonix Feb 11 2019, 05:30 PM
Okay so if this goes to #1 this week, Ariana will be the first female artist EVER to replace herself as the #1 single in the UK! The only other artists to do so are:
The Beatles - I Want to Hold Your Hand and She Loves You (December 1963)
John Lennon - Imagine and Woman (February 1981)
Elvis Presley - Jailhouse Rock and One Night/I Got Stung (January 2005)
Justin Bieber - Sorry and Love Yourself (December 2015); I'm the One and Despacito (May 2017)
Ed Sheeran - Perfect and River (January 2018)
a living legend *.*

Finally you see sense *.* A bop
Posted by: Theonix Feb 13 2019, 04:47 PM
#1 in the UK mids! Herstory about to me made, keep streaming, girls!!!
Posted by: Tawdry Hepburn Feb 14 2019, 09:52 AM
The production on this is lit, but there's not much in the way of a song here is there?
Posted by: Theonix Feb 14 2019, 06:56 PM
The apartment that the video was filmed in is the same as the one in Selena Gomez's Hands to Myself video! I knew it looked familiar 
Apparently Charlie Puth's video for Attention was also filmed there
Posted by: BotchLikeThis Feb 14 2019, 09:17 PM
Two bops *.*
Posted by: Jordan Lee Feb 15 2019, 08:04 PM
This has entered at #1 in the UK replacing 7 rings.
3 number ones in less than 100 days!!
Posted by: SweetButJonjo👻 Feb 19 2019, 09:58 PM
This is probably one of the biggest ear worms of recent times for me! It's so infectious and I'm so happy to see it receiving so much success!
Posted by: blacksquare Feb 25 2019, 03:37 PM
This was disappointing to me at first but the production is just so stellar. I'm sold.

Covered by Sam Fender on the Radio 1 Live Lounge. I hear it, I like it.
