Ariana Grande: No Tears Left to Cry
No Tears Left to Cry is her first single since the Manchester attack May 22, 2017. Reportedly there were 500 injured and 22 actually killed. Reports stated Ariana 'cried for days'. And I can't go on without first noting her phenomenal philanthropy as she hosted the One Love Manchester benefit concert on June 4, 2017 with other stars like Miley Cyrus, Katy Perry, Justin Bieber & others. Tickets sold out within 6 days of the event notifications and all proceeds went to the families of the victims.
The last song performed was her single, One Last Time, & the entire crowd was moved to tears. Even Ari was crying by the end of the performance. Raising over $13 million in proceeds, I'd say the mission was accomplished. Either way, I'd like to take a moment to recognize those effected & give my deepest condolences to the victims & their families.
Moving onward, apparently she has 'no tears left to cry' and I, for one, am extremely excited for her & her upcoming album. Actual release date isn't noted; but, nonetheless, she still graced us with the first single from the new album and I am IN LOVE with it.
No Tears Left to Cry starts off as if she's about to give us a ballad and then the beat drops & it turns into the pop sound we're used to hearing from her as in the songs The Way, Side to Side & Love Me Harder.
Not to mention, this new album is produced by none other than Pharrell & Max Martin. Martin has worked with artists like Taylor Swift, Katy Perry, Justin Timberlake, and many, many more. And Pharrell, well...I don't think there's a need for an intro.
Keeping it going, this song debuted on 4/20 & has over 20 million views on YouTube so far. The video is #8 on the YouTube trending list. I think it's safe to say she's made a major comeback with this song. There's numerous reaction videos to this single & the results are all the same: everyone loves it.
And let me just say this about the video...it's a masterpiece. The effects are like those from a movie with Ari seemingly defying gravity and walking on ceilings to falling from the top of a building to her literally taking off her face. It's almost as if she's saying she's tired of the tears & the pain and is ready to start anew. And I completely agree with her. But you can view the video below & come to your own conclusions. And be sure to support Ari & get her new song from iTunes here & from Amazon here.
