In regards to time length, I think it should be longer but in terms of the outro rather than the lyrical content. There's three verses which is absolutely sufficient, it's just a shame it just ends when she stops singing when there's room for a 30 second outro.

Debuts at 33 on US POP RADIO :o

 

(Also, thank u, next just went #1 there today!)

What an absolute jam. I think I prefer this to thank u, next as well! :o

It's very good. I definitely prefer this to 'thank u next', which I found a bit boring tbh.

ISSA BOP.

 

Easily the best from this era so far <3 I was a bit worried that the sample would come across tacky but it actually works fine (although the verses > - definitely getting a Beyoncé vibe from it in the best possible way)

For me.

 

I'm enjoying them, but I don't really care for them much. Well, 7R is growing on me, but we'll see.

Thought it was rather tacky but it's grown on me on second listen. I'd prefer it if they didn't base it so heavily around the Favourite Things sample but it's a bit of a bop.

This is easily my 3rd favourite Ariana song now, behind One Last Time and No Tears Left To Cry

I actually like the sample and the chorus. Not a big fan of the verses which are monotonous and repetitive. Prefer it to thank u next on balance, however.

Day 3 still smashing!

 

I think as well, if you take the track as the satire pop that it is, then it's far more enjoyable, if you take it seriously and see it as cocky, it's fun as well, it's a little too brash. There have been a few instances where satire pop has been taken far too seriously by the majority and completely backfired on an artist. "Hard Out Here" by Lily Allen springs to mind.

I’m at 207 plays already, half of NTLTC and more than double TUN :mellow:

Been listening to this a far bit I don't think I love it as much as No Tears Left To Cry or Thank U, Next etc but I do like it.

I think I'd put it on par with God Is A Woman in regards of how much I love it. Definitely not to No Tears amazingness levels for me, still bloody great.

LOVE 7 rings!

Ariana is truly killing it right now.

Very comfortably midweek #1 in UK

 

4th #1 incoming.

 

On sales only won’t this be her 6th as well!! I’m sure one last time and no tears were sales #1 but officially #2.

 

She’s easily gonna overtake most pop females and be up there with Madonna Rihanna and Spice Girls for female

#1s I think possibly even within the next few years.

Why am I hating this?! :(

 

I've loved every single one of her singles since Problem (even 'Everyday'!) and this is just.... nothing? It kind of feels very shallow and hollow, the majority of her other singles seemed to have a bit of depth to them. This just feels like female Drake, it's okay and it's perfectly fine and I'm so happy she's getting crazy success but I can't help but feeling underwhelmed.
