September 13, 201410 yr Definately the best song she's released so far, that video is mind blowing, just love it, hope it becomes another smash in the UK for her
September 14, 201410 yr Just wondering if this still has that october impact date? I hoping for a Ariana X Factor UK performance this year!
September 15, 201410 yr I believe so, as Radio 1 have added it to their playlist (which starts it's playlist rotation today) and usually a song goes C-B-B-A and hits the A-list in time for it's "release date". So about 4 weeks, which is about right IIRC. We should start seeing it's airplay increase and video play maybe impact a bit more and result into to climbing on iTunes. I hope so at least! It deserves better than a stinky number 20 peak :\
September 15, 201410 yr Author Yeah it's impact date is October 5th at the moment, it was pushed forward a couple of weeks from the 19th.
May 29, 20187 yr This is still the ultimate bop :wub: Agreed! Still no song has had a bigger impact on me on first listen than this. IS THE PART WHEN... what?
May 29, 20187 yr Still my favourite Ariana song. It's such a bop with a huge chorus, her best melody for me. It's also really empowering, if you watch the Manchester One Love performance it just adds an extra layer of special. Actually probably one of my favourite pop songs of the decade.
May 29, 20187 yr ^^ Definately, this is still my favourite Ariana song and is unlikely to be beaten. That is unless she collabs with Zedd again (which I think there is a rumour going around where she is, could be wrong)
July 17, 20204 yr The 100 Greatest Music Videos of the 21st Century: Critics' Picks https://www.billboard.com/articles/news/lis...he-21st-century So the 'Break Free' video is Ariana's only appearance on this list :lol: an interesting choice 94. Ariana Grande feat. Zedd, "Break Free" (dir. Chris Marrs Piliero, 2014) “Brace yourself for something so fantastically fantastical that you’ll soil yourself from intergalactic excitement" reads part of the tongue-in-cheek Star Wars-style scroll that introduces Ariana Grande’s video for “Break Free." The stakes in this outer space-based video are as high as Grande’s ponytail, as she uses her blaster to shoot down guards and free prisoners. But wait! Ari herself has been taken captive! Will she... break free?! Yes, and then she will board a spaceship where Zedd is both captain and DJ. Phew. -- CHRISTINE WERTHMAN
July 17, 20204 yr The right choice :cheeseblock: I remember the build up to this so well, fond memories <3
July 17, 20204 yr Glad she's in there at all but this wouldn't even be in my top 5 Ariana videos! I'm a lot more fond of the song than the visuals :( 'no tears left to cry' forever paid dust in these lists x
July 17, 20204 yr I love it in all its cheapness :kink: Omg No Tears snubbed, that list is cancelled then x
July 17, 20204 yr good lord I hate the Break Free video. Over God is a woman, No Tears, heck! even Breathin and Boyfriend
July 18, 20204 yr Plus 'Side To Side', 'thank u, next' and '7 rings' :o (we definitely need to do a music video rate later in the year)
July 2Jul 2 11 years since 'Break Free' was released as a single!Sadly robbed of a top 10 peak here due to the Instant Grat rules in place at the time. Just realised that it ended up getting to 1 Billion streams before 'Problem'.
