There's a 15 second LQ snippet circulating, sounds catchy af, very R&B too.

Omg it samples My Favourite Things from Sound Of Music!!

 

It's... interesting. I definitely like it, it's like a more put together version of 7/11 by Beyonce to me a bit. The Julie Andrews melody works bizarrely well too :lol:

 

I WANT IT. I GOT IT. I WANT IT. I GOT IT.

 

I’m gonna have that stuck in my head when I go to sleep, thanks Ari

This is so infectious. Loving it on first listen.

WOW. I can see this being HUGE.

Couldn’t love this more. So infectious.

Omg I prefer this to thank u next.

 

It’s going to be massive omg

Fantastic!!!!! What an inspired use of the sample *.*

"You like. My hair. Gee, thanks. Just bought it."

 

This is such a catchy song! I was hooked by my first listen and I say that as someone who took time getting into 'thank u, next'. The sample doesn't really feel jarring despite being so recognisable. Pretty sure someone else sampled 'My Favourite Things' and failed to pull it off and the less said about JLS' 'The Club is Alive'... (although it is a bop).

This is amazing but it's far too short?! It kinda just ended abruptly. Would be amazing for it to be another #1 for her but we'll see, Sweet But Psycho is still doing good numbers

big brovaz wasn’t it LMAO

like it!! the video is gorgeous

I'm in two minds as to how I feel. It's infectious and catchy, but it's not really my thing and I doubt I'd be giving it the time of day beyond the first listen if it was pretty much anyone else..

 

The video is fantastic though! The visuals and aesthetics are orgasmic!

 

And ofc if it gets #1 it's gonna piss me off even more that NTLTC and GIAW didn't do it :lol:

Now that you mention it I do recall them sampling it although I feel they're could be a more recent example. I could just be remembering wrong. Either way, the sample in '7 Rings' doesn't feel jarring or corny and it's not even relied on as the main hook of the song.

On the subject of Sound of Music samples, who remembers this BOP:

 

Oh WOW what a bop yesssss Ari !

It reminds me of Scream by Kelis

 

I really love it though. On first two listens I like it more than I did thank u, next at the time of premiere.

 

Love the video too. It really makes a difference for me a song and video are released together.

 

I can easily see this being the next UK #1 and I can easily see it being her second US #1 too

More proof that Pharrell should stay away from everyone

This keeps growing like a rash, what a banger*.*

 

This dropping on payday while I pretend to be bougie for a day is perfect timing tbh

I'm sitting in the airport terminal after work trying my best not to just start playing it out loud and breaking into dance. WHAMBOP!!
