Positions by Ariana Grande Review

Updated for the deluxe version <3

shut up: Okay, this was a little strange. Big fan of the lyrics. Made me giggle, actually. And I really enjoyed the strings. Very pretty and plucky. I don’t think I absolutely loved the harmonies. They weren’t pleasant to me. That’s okay.

34+35: At first I was like no. Don’t even. But it’s really fun. And cute. And the way she says squeaky really just works for me. It’s pretty decent. Not the most thought provoking track, but that’s fine with me. She was cute anyways. Love the outro.

motive: This song has grown on me. I really like the production. Parts of it are pretty fun and cool. The chorus falls a little flat. Doja’s part is so unimportant to me.

just like magic: I really enjoyed this song. It was very fun and I was here for the rhymes. Good message. Love it lots. Probably will be stuck in my head.

off the table: The way this song builds. I’m not okay. I was so bored at first. It wasn’t doing much. Even when Abel came in. I felt nothing. But then shit got crazy. Miss Ariana started hitting those notes and all was right in the world. And the strings at the end!!!!

six thirty: Pretty average. Some fun lyrics but nothing crazy good. I’m a little disappointed in this track tbh. Not the best.

safety net: This song was nice. It was a nice change of pace. Pretty cool. I was nervous about it but it turned out alright. Could possibly even grow on me more.

my hair: Hearing good things about this one. Oh man you know I fuck with jazz. She ended by whistle singing the chorus again. I really appreciate that. It was very groovy and fun and I loved it.

nasty: Pretty catchy but not mind blowing. I thought the bridge was very good. I love when she actually uses her vocals to their full potential. That’s what I’m here for.

west side: I really liked this one. It was cool. And very short. I love short songs so much. I thought it was pretty fabulous.

love language: I really liked the production. It was very theatrical. It was a cute song too. The switch up at the end was interesting. I don’t know how much it really enhanced the song, though.

positions: This song is pretty solid. It gets stuck in my head a lot. I think it’s pretty good. Makes me happy.

obvious: I really love this melody. This is a fabulous song. Perfect length I think. I am so satisfied with this track it’s unbelievable. Good stuff.

pov: This was beautiful. I really liked the lyrics. Very cute idea.

someone like u (interlude): She usually nails interludes and similar stuff but this one was average. I didn’t love. It was kind of boring and not beautiful enough.

test drive: I didn’t feel anything towards this song. It’s not my favorite.

34+35 (Remix): I like Megan’s verse. Doja is fine. I like the “keep it squeaky” part in the original and I miss it here.

worst behavior: This song was so cute and fun. I love it.

main thing: How did it take 7 people to write this song? I wasn’t a fan. Boring.
