Thank_U,_Next_album_cover.png

 

This week it's time for the fifth and final Ariana album party - time flies! We conclude with her latest record-breaking release 'thank u, next'. This album contains three #1 singles in 'thank u, next', '7 rings' and 'break up with your girlfriend, i'm bored', plus a further two top 10s in 'imagine' and 'needy'. As always, this will begin at 8:30 BST time and the running time is around 41 minutes. Time to go out on a high! If you missed all the previous parties, here's how they work for a final time:

 

Hi all :hi:

 

Recently the Kylie and Spice Girls forums have showcased the brilliant idea of forum album parties. The way this works is simultaneously starting an album at the same time and commenting along with each track in the thread. I was wondering if there would be interest in doing the same with each album for Ariana? She only has 5 studio albums so not too daunting a task! I see a lot of comments on here saying that people haven't heard 'Yours Truly' before so this would be a great opportunity to rectify this.

 

There would be a separate session for every album with a decided day and time where we'd all start and comment along.

We all listen separately and just start at the same time so we're in sync! I used Spotify for the Spice Girls one for instance but whatever works for you - iTunes, a YouTube playlist of the album etc. I'll drop a YouTube embed of each song in the thread as it starts too.

 

It's done this way and not on plug to encourage the discussion to take place in the AF and not offsite if that makes sense! We all live comment along in here ^_^

 

Here's how the Spice Girls one worked: http://www.buzzjack.com/forums/index.php?s...t&p=6532317

 

Alternatively, here is a link to the 'Sweetener' party to get more of a feel for how it worked in action.

 

I hope that's clear enough but feel free to ask any questions if you need to!

 

Here are some handy links for tonight:

See you later :cheer:

Of course :D

 

I can’t believe it’s the last one already. We’ll have to think of ways of continuing it in the future. Charlie’s Angels’s soundtrack maybe?

I'll make an appearance! I seem to be here for the odd number albums in order of release :lol: Still quite familiar with all of these bar a couple of the album tracks so this should be fairly easy going :D
I'm in! Just waiting for the Tiebreaker vote then I've got just enough time to eat dinner... maybe watch some Modern Family during and I'll be here. :lol:
Missed the other ones but here for this! :)

Imagine is so good but I hardly go back to it outside the album.

 

The whistle notes though :wub :wub:

'imagine' is a beautiful opener :wub: I really underrated this when it first came out but it's quietly crept up on me. Love the strings and whistle notes especially!
The Imaaaaaaaaagine a world like that's always take my breath away :heart: Like I said in my countdown, I was totally underwhelmed by this after the genius of 'tu,n' but it's really quite magical when you get into it.

Her voice in 'imagine' is breathtaking! The track itself is just "ok" to me. This album's tracklist is weird to me, I feel like it should be completely reversed :lol: But this is a lovely track, just not essential for me.

01. imagine

Imagine is a really good album opener and promo single! It deserved it's top 10 peak in my opinion, would've liked it to be a proper single but I can't imagine (lol) it would've re-peaked so idk. Also adore the whistle-note ending!

Needy? A relatable anthem. And totally underrated by like almost everyone :cry:

 

It's so atmospherical and dark. Perfect for 'thank u, next', and the lyrics just add to that. One of my all time faves in her whole discography :wub: Who's with me :michelle:
