Posted March 12, 20241 yr To celebrate the release of Ariana's 7th studio album, the listening party concept returns for 'eternal sunshine'. Join us tomorrow (Wednesday 13th March) at 8:00 PM GMT. As a reminder of the concept, a5 7PM tomorrow, we will all separately press play on 'eternal sunshine' using our preferred streaming services so we're in sync. We will then listen along together and post any thoughts and comments in this thread. :D We'll listen to the 'slightly deluxe' version as it's only 12 minutes longer, so the whole session will last about 47 minutes.

March 13, 20241 yr Author I'll be here but I may be a little late unfortunately! What time can you make? We can delay it maybe. :)
March 13, 20241 yr I should be free up until about 9pm so happy to delay slightly if others are, maybe 8pm or so? But will make 7pm if the plans don't change ^_^
March 13, 20241 yr Author I don't mind delaying, unless anyone posts that they won't be able to make it, then let's say 8PM.
March 13, 20241 yr A really good intro imo, the production is really lush. A perfect way to introduce the album's aesthetic for me :heart:
March 13, 20241 yr Author I'm loving 'bye' at the moment. Definitely one that caught me on the first listen. :heart:
March 13, 20241 yr I absolutely adore 'bye' :heart: Probably my fav from the album already, a mega-bop. I also love the contrast between the fun vibe of the track and the deeply emotional lyrics from Ari's part.
March 13, 20241 yr Watching part 2 of Ariana's Zach Sang interview earlier helped me appreciate the maturity of these lyrics. I like the super personal touches ("Courtney just pulled up in the driveway") and the chorus is definitely an earworm, not a top tier favourite at the moment though.
