Why is no one talking about the haunting background synth, it makes me think about Mac's ghost floating around Ari while she's crying in confusion. Hits everytime.
The fact that she was forced to release this song and this was her moment to grieve just makes me cry. I love the song, but i dont like that it wasnt her decision to release it. She said in a interview that she didnt have the physical, and mental energy to do a third verse and thats why she harmonizes for the last bit of the song. Absolutely wrecks me.
I completely agree. I just wanted to add - I’ve always loved the last part of the song just being harmonies and strings. I feel it perfectly represents that feeling of having nothing left to say when the pain you’re in is so deep and complex. That probably wasn’t the intention but it’s what I’ve always thought about when hearing it. I do hope she has made some peace with this song being released. Thinking about scooter potentially pressuring her into it is upsetting.
@@ryliee16 100% agree with this. The part where you said a pain so deep and complex is such a powerful, and destructive yet human experience. It feels reassuring to see it written by another person. It's such an isolating experience.
she was not forced, stop running with that narrative just bc u dislike scooter braun. it was originally on the album aswell as remember, but ariana wanted to scrap both of them since they were too personal, to which scooter said he thinks it fit the album and that the songs were beautiful. then ariana decided to keep ghost in, but scrap remember. as far as we know, she was not forced into anything.
The line ‘he just comes to visit me when I’m dreaming every now and then’ is so beautiful. It’s both a beautiful but also sad feeling when you dream of someone who isn’t here anymore.
It is...I relate to this song so much...my fiance passed away in bed right next to me while I was asleep from an OD after 3 years clean and my world ended overnight...the worst night of my life... fast forward six months and my first love (& vice versa) contacted me and although I didn't want anything to do with another man I always still loved my first and he was the one who got away..I know my fiance would want me to be happy and if I skipped the opportunity I may never be... so we ended up getting back together and help heal each other bc he had gotten divorced from the mother of his 3 kids after she cheated 13x(that he has proof of)...I was still grieving and he was and has been nothing but 1000% supportive...I cried and broke down every single day and talked about my late fiance nonstop and he never once complained... it's been 3 years and I am still grieving and bring him up every day but there's no jealousy bc he knows that no matter what he's not a threat bc he's not here and if he hadn't passed, me and him would have never gotten back together... but the dream line is my favorite bc I'm a very vivid dreamer and my fiance absolutely comes to visit me in my sleep sometimes which is both amazing and devastating bc I wake up crying and overwhelmed with grief... this song is so beautiful but brings me to tears bc it's almost my exact situation... the only difference is that we didn't break up and then I got with someone and got engaged just to hear that he passed away...my fiance passed away and I found him and we were in love and happy...our last interaction was before I went to bed and he grabbed me and embraced me tightly while telling me he loved me so much and we kissed goodnight..I've been through horrific breakups and it's beyond hard to get over someone you truly loved..but, . breaking up with someone and someone just dying out of nowhere right next to you is a whole different thing and it's unbearable and incomparable and it's the hardest thing I've ever been through and I've had an extremely hard life from the time of conception...I don't think I'll ever fully recover and I have ptsd from that night when I was already dealing with depression, anxiety, and insomnia so it's a lot of mental anguish... plus I feel so guilty for being asleep...he died in his sleep and didn't suffer, but if I would have been awake or if I woke up sooner, I could have saved him and I tried as hard as possible but he'd been dead for about 2 hours...turns out by phone records and my timeline and the autopsy and toxicology report that he basically got something off someone in our apartment building right after I went to sleep and died right after, like within a half hour of me going to sleep...he hadn't used at all in 3 years and just did a small amount not knowing it was laced with fentanyl....💔🙏🏻💯
what's even sadder is the reason why the ending of the song is straight harmonies is because Ariana couldn't record the 3rd verse without breaking down into tears. she had written a verse, but every time she went to record it, she would start crying. so she compromised, and replaced the verse with those beautiful harmonies.
@@idiotsandwich4912 exactly !! they're not on the final album for a reason, the song we got was already heartbreaking. i'm glad she didn't push herself to record the verse
I do think it’s so sad an it’s so wrong for them to release this song even when she didn’t want them so I feel so bad for her honestly like I love Ari so much it breaks my heart knowing all this and she never deserves any of this I hope those lyrics won’t be released
this song was supposed to have a third verse, but she couldn't finish it, she would cry trying to do it, in a interview she said it was also the hardest song for her to record, in some background vocals from official stems you can hear the pain in her voice, so glad that she's okay now rip mac 🙏🏻
As an arianator, there are quite a few of her songs with deep lyrics and would be good reaction videos! Recommendations: fake smile, in my head, breathin’, Best Mistake, My Everything, One Last Time, needy, and Almost Is Never Enough. Love your content ❤️
@@inside_out1112 i used to be like full blown arianator. now im not that crazy cause of school, work, and im not really into her new album. but still love her tho. just not as crazy as i used to be. my everything - tun is the time when i really really love her.
@@XMilesX123 that’s literally a lie😭. It’s literally the fact that dalton got ariana’s name tattoed in june and put it as his pfp befor he deleted his account
Ah! I did not expect this video to pop up in my recommended but I’m so glad it did. I’ve been an Ariana fan for years and when Mac passed I decided to listen to his album ‘swimming’ and fell in love with his entire discography. Ghostin is a hard one to listen to and I’ve always skipped it. But I think you talking about it with us today will be really insightful. 💔 Mac will be forever missed
The last part of the song is the part that kills me the most. Its just so sad, cause it almost seems like ur entering heaven 😭 her vocals are so beautiful and the fact that she was crying during that part. 💔
she has an unrelesed song called "reMeMber" and also is it for Mac and it's an scrapped song from Thank u, Next. The song talk about not being able to say goodbye to him and the way she remember their relationship. Was leaked like a year ago, i hope you can hear that beautifull song
I can’t help to cry when I hear this song every time. My soon to be ex husband (not my choice) is an addict & I relate to her in that sense. I’m never certain when he’s going to leave (in the OD sense) and he will never have the opportunity to hear from or see his daughters ever again.
I hadn’t listened to this song since before I lost my best friend from high school. He and I had always had an unspoken thing between us, but timing never worked out. And even though we had both moved on, he was still in my life. In November, he passed away from alcoholism. His funeral was on my birthday. We were too young to have to deal with that. It hit me hard when I lost him and the guy I was dating at the time was wonderful about it, but I still struggling and I felt so guilty for it. I’d listened to this when it first came out, but it hits different now.
Thank you for sharing this. I wish I could hug you. I can only imagine how much you relate to this and I hope it gives you comfort knowing that you are not alone ❤
Beautiful reaction to this song, you really understood the meaning of this song to the core, and so do I. This may be controversial but i would go as far to say that this song is one of the most personal songs ever done by an artist.
I don’t listen to Ariana cause her music is just too “pop” for my taste, but this song is just pure perfection. I think it’s one of her best songs. The emotions, the vulnerability🩷
One of Ariana's most beautiful songs. It shows the most real and raw feelings from, perhaps, the worst phase of her life and it's clear that he was the love of her life. Mac was one of Ari's pillars in a complicated moment that was also mentioned in the video, when he had that attack on the show. Even though it's painful, I like the fact that she tells how he visits her while she sleeps. Although she doesn't talk about the subject today, clearly the respect and love for Mac still remains, including in several other songs
This is so sad when i was a kid i knew about macs death now im 15 this is so sad when i was like 10 and when this song came on i broke into tears we will always love ariana and mac miller no matter if hes dead we will always listen to both of them!! This is so sad and i hope she will feel better till this day♥️♥️
she’s definitely healed but not fully but very proud of how far she’s come. i cried so hard when she performed the way last year for the 10 year anniversary for her first album and when mac’s part came on you can see how she’s trying to be happy but it still hurts her. she’s so strong. i’ve been a fan of hers since i was 4 lmao and i’m 17 almost 18 now and i remember when the way came out and when the news broke out he passed away it broke my heart completely and still breaks my heart. mac and ari were meant for eachother. right place wrong time 😔🤍
listening to ghostin' intently again makes it so obvious that eternal sunshine (the song, not the album) was another letter written to him. I love that she has continued to include a note to him in all of her projects to this day. knowing that she considered them as best friends always and that he had similarly penned the note to her while he was here that the universe couldn't keep them apart, not even if it tried.
This is a great video. It almost made me cry🥺 I love Mac Miller’s music and his death hit me really hard. I can’t even imagine what it was like for her…
Vi um corte de seu vídeo no tiktok, e vim correndo pro UA-cam procurar. Sua reação e a forma de explicar o que ela sente e o que você sentiu quando ouviu a música é linda. Parabéns pelo vídeo ❤❤❤
@@sarahelizabeth9483 it’s from the manchester memorial concert she did, at one point when mac was on stage he said “we love you ariana”. at 9:42 you can hear it, it’s pitched down
you could do some songs off of her latest album ‘eternal sunshine’! there are so many vulnerable songs on that album such as ‘i wish i hated you’ about her ex husband and ‘we cant be friends (wait for your love)’ about her relationship with the media
I always viewed this from Pete’s POV. My ex used to always talk about her ex no matter what I did. I always saw her cry about him while I stood there supportive. Idk bro I just wanted to make them happy and fill that hole, but I don’t think I was enough or was ever enough until the moment I decided to leave, then all of sudden I was more than enough. I never wanted it to be that way, but it’s fucked that it was then , and only then, when she saw that I was gone that I finally, was enough.
I would love your analysis and possible relatability to "Breathin'" by Ariana Grande. That song saved me at some of my darkest moments, as someone who deals with mental struggles. Love your reactions. Keep doing what you're doing!
Ariana knows how to MAKE not only make, but COOK very DEEP, RHYTHMIC, MAGICAL, EMOTIONAL, EVENTFUL, POETIC, and RELATABLE songs. and my other favorite part is that they are so gooddd. the beats and sounds make my stomach drop n my body tinkle😌🙏
I’d love to hear your thoughts and to see you react to Arianas album “thank you next” or even just a few songs from it. It was written and released through Arianas hardest times and I think it’s such a beautiful but heartbreaking album. Thank you for reacting to this song 🫶🏻
This is my favorite song of all time. It's so sad that Ariana had to go through this. Thank you very much for the video! Can you do the song "in my head" by Ariana too please?
I saw that you weren't making any comments about the backtrack, but one thing about Ariana is that her song's backtracks include hidden things and this song, this actually carries the whole "theme" of the song. The mood switches throughout the song, at the start it's swimming in the bad feeling but in the end it's like it's happened and just crying. Gotta need to listen to this song's instrumental cause it's the saddest thing here. It sounds haunted.
Hearing this song for the first time as a teenager when it came out reminded me that our idols are just like us when it comes to exploring their mrntal health and that, although it is possible and IMPORTANT to move on after a death of a loved one, it still hurts every bit of our heart and i think that is the reason why i still feel a bit reluctant to listen to this song when i want to listen to ari calm songs (i would rather listen to moonlight ngl😂) or when i am listening to the album by myself🖤
Max was more than her ex, they we’re best friends and he helped her the most when the bombing at a Manchester concert happened. She had so much anxiety and Mac helped her through that. He always told her to just breathe hence the song. This song and others when she’s referencing Mac are always so heartbreaking. You’re right she has been through so much.
I love this song so much because when I was really getting into her music I added a bunch of her songs on to a playlist and shuffled. It was around Christmas time and my family and I were going to my grandmas house the weekend before finals. I was so stressed over doing well and having to study while the rest of my family go to relax. We where almost there and it was dark out and the song came on when I was falling asleep and it just comforted my so much that I played it again latter that night to fall asleep. It is such a beautiful song and I love it so much.
Even tho ari write very personal songs I think she also always wants her audience to be able to relate to them as well which is why she used the word ghosting him instead of forgetting him. So that way her fans can also relate to the song as if it was a normal breakup scenario
if you want more ariana to react to i would recommend get well soon, theres a long moment of silence making the song 5 min 22 sec, 5/22 being the daye of the manchester attack and the song in general talks about her anxiety and ptsd and being there for each other. also fake smile, in my head, imagine, better off, off the table
I’m happy that she found peace, a supportive husband(now with a private relationship and that’s better for them), supportive family and friends. Quarantine was good for her surely She deserves what she has now after going through a lot
Losing anyone is hard but Losing an ex or someone you're in a relationship with is a different kind of pain . I lost my ex dec 7th 2022 but we were still friends and messing around. The last thing he said to me was he loved me. So surreal ..
I hate the hate she’s been receiving for her relationship now. Let the girl be happy. Especially after this song and album, that’s what she deserves. Fuck the rest, it doesn’t matter. All that matters is she’s finally in a loving relationship. Fuck all the haters
I feel like this song was made before Mac passed. It sounds like she left Mac for Pete but she did it so quickly that there was still interacting with Mac . That’s why she says she cries instead of ghosting him. Ghosting would be blocking or not communicating with the other person. It sounds like she still had a connection whether it’s calling or texting. I can imagine she cared enough to not want to lose that connection or still worried about him so she didn’t block or ghost him.
It was definitely written and recorded after he passed. “Ghostin” is just a clever take on what it means to “ghost” someone in this day and age. You can hear the grief and pain in her voice
Idk if anyone’s said already but to answer your question, when she says ghostin’, she means to ‘ignore and forget’ about him, just as someone would ignore and forget a text message by somebody. She’s saying she knows it breaks Pete’s heart when she’s crying over Mac repeatedly, instead of trying to accept what’s happened and move on but that feels impossible for her at that time.
I just heard about this and it makes me sick! I want to make a video on how someone with addiction issues is responsible for their own lives and choices. It was not her duty to “save” him bc no one can really save someone, he would have to do it for himself. And what, she just keeps dealing with the toxicity that comes with loving an addict so that he doesn’t OD?! Is that a life for her?! So messed up. It really gets me worked up!!!
id absolutely LOVE a reaction to Mac Millers song circles. i think knowing about his addictions and what ultimately happened, it’s one of the saddest songs i’ve ever heard. id love to see your reaction/interpretation of it.
Hello, i may be very late to this video But there are actually hidden voice recordings of Mac Miller. They are blurred and modified so you wouldnt be able to hear them, you can hear them in stripped version only
I went through something so similar the man i believed was my soul mate overdosed after I chose someone over him because of his addiction. The feeling of loving two people and knowing your hurting them is the worst feeling. I didn't even know this song existed until today
one of my good friends lost her boyfriend from an overdose. Although it wasnt impossible given his circumstances, it was still sudden and heartbreaking. I have never heard someone cry so hard or seen such pain as i saw her in when he passed. my boyfriend was his best friend and it hurt him deeply and still does, but it was a different, unbearable pain for her. it makes me think that losing your person/ the love of ur life is a separate type of grief. there is a cause of death in widows called broken heart syndrome, where the pain the person feels literally stops their heart.
Not sure if you knew this at the time but the opening and continuing instrumental is a slowed version from Mac Millers song - 2009 which if you listen to that song will bring you to tears also because it’s from Macs perspective
Apparently there was a third verse but Ariana struggled singing it cuz it was too much so that’s why the end it just strings and harmonies 💔 I hate how we got this song but I love it so much
not sure if anyone knew this I only found out today but if you listen to the official stems, towards the middle and at the very end, Ari sampled a clip of her and Mac laughing together (from the same clip she posted on instagram of them/the audio that went viral on tiktok) with him saying “babyy” and her giggling and saying “it makes me happy 🥹”
Addiction is the worst evil (in my opinion) the way it destroys the heart of the ones you love. I feel a sense of her pain, he will never walk through that door again by choice or speak and see to his kids anymore on his own accord. Gave up legal and physical custody 18 months ago. They already lost him & so did I
Honestly I think you should listen to “pov” by Ariana. It’s the last song on her latest album. It’s kind of like the light at the end of the tunnel regarding the beautiful tragedies of her love life. Lol I think you could pull a lot from that song!
Why is no one talking about the haunting background synth, it makes me think about Mac's ghost floating around Ari while she's crying in confusion. Hits everytime.
Ghosting is when someone suddenly stops all communication with another person without explanation. It's like they disappear, or become a "ghost."
So she’s basically telling Pete that she’s sorry for not ghosting Mac Miller because she knows how Pete feels hurt as well
The fact that she was forced to release this song and this was her moment to grieve just makes me cry. I love the song, but i dont like that it wasnt her decision to release it. She said in a interview that she didnt have the physical, and mental energy to do a third verse and thats why she harmonizes for the last bit of the song. Absolutely wrecks me.

What’s more sad is that she uses the instrumental for his song “2009” in reverse to sing this song.
How do you know??

she’s definitely healed but not fully but very proud of how far she’s come. i cried so hard when she performed the way last year for the 10 year anniversary for her first album and when mac’s part came on you can see how she’s trying to be happy but it still hurts her. she’s so strong. i’ve been a fan of hers since i was 4 lmao and i’m 17 almost 18 now and i remember when the way came out and when the news broke out he passed away it broke my heart completely and still breaks my heart. mac and ari were meant for eachother. right place wrong time 😔🤍
@@eternalsunshinealways awwee
listening to ghostin' intently again makes it so obvious that eternal sunshine (the song, not the album) was another letter written to him. I love that she has continued to include a note to him in all of her projects to this day. knowing that she considered them as best friends always and that he had similarly penned the note to her while he was here that the universe couldn't keep them apart, not even if it tried.
This is a great video. It almost made me cry🥺 I love Mac Miller’s music and his death hit me really hard. I can’t even imagine what it was like for her…
i really love how we can see on your face how you feel the song smm
Vi um corte de seu vídeo no tiktok, e vim correndo pro UA-cam procurar. Sua reação e a forma de explicar o que ela sente e o que você sentiu quando ouviu a música é linda. Parabéns pelo vídeo ❤❤❤
The fact that In the end you can hear Mac say "I love you, Ariana"...
wait what??
@@sarahelizabeth9483 it’s from the manchester memorial concert she did, at one point when mac was on stage he said “we love you ariana”. at 9:42 you can hear it, it’s pitched down
As beautiful this song vocally is, this is always a skip because I cannot sob in public whenever I listen to the whole album
Broke my heart 💔💔💔😭😭😭
9:41 you can hear “ I love you Ariana “
how come I hadn't heard that until now? 😭
@@emmaledesma17 it’s ok. When I figured it out I started Balling.
@@MsZo3y Literally me now, btw ur so gorgeous girl💕
@@emmaledesma17 thank you☺️ so are you ma’am
and right after this she says “Mac Mac”
you could do some songs off of her latest album ‘eternal sunshine’! there are so many vulnerable songs on that album such as ‘i wish i hated you’ about her ex husband and ‘we cant be friends (wait for your love)’ about her relationship with the media
I always viewed this from Pete’s POV. My ex used to always talk about her ex no matter what I did. I always saw her cry about him while I stood there supportive. Idk bro I just wanted to make them happy and fill that hole, but I don’t think I was enough or was ever enough until the moment I decided to leave, then all of sudden I was more than enough. I never wanted it to be that way, but it’s fucked that it was then , and only then, when she saw that I was gone that I finally, was enough.
you should definitely listen to ‘in my head’ it’s also similarly deep & has an amazing bridge. would love to see you break that one down
Ariana really lost her soulmate. It’s so freakin sad..
something about their dynamic just hit different….she was always glowing in her pictures with mac, they both were.
this song is so so sad i can never listen to it without crying
i always love this song so much but never know the back story behind, now i'm crying like a baby 😭😭
I would love your analysis and possible relatability to "Breathin'" by Ariana Grande. That song saved me at some of my darkest moments, as someone who deals with mental struggles. Love your reactions. Keep doing what you're doing!
Great reaction and analysis, Mere! Forgot about this song. Great song too
Ariana knows how to MAKE not only make, but COOK very DEEP, RHYTHMIC, MAGICAL, EMOTIONAL, EVENTFUL, POETIC, and RELATABLE songs. and my other favorite part is that they are so gooddd. the beats and sounds make my stomach drop n my body tinkle😌🙏
I sob every time I hear the song I can feel her pain and this song is just heartbreaking
Everyone is crying to this song😢
This song breaks me everytime
I’d love to hear your thoughts and to see you react to Arianas album “thank you next” or even just a few songs from it. It was written and released through Arianas hardest times and I think it’s such a beautiful but heartbreaking album. Thank you for reacting to this song 🫶🏻
This is my favorite song of all time. It's so sad that Ariana had to go through this. Thank you very much for the video! Can you do the song "in my head" by Ariana too please?
I saw that you weren't making any comments about the backtrack, but one thing about Ariana is that her song's backtracks include hidden things and this song, this actually carries the whole "theme" of the song. The mood switches throughout the song, at the start it's swimming in the bad feeling but in the end it's like it's happened and just crying. Gotta need to listen to this song's instrumental cause it's the saddest thing here. It sounds haunted.
thanks for reactin this song 😢❤
Hearing this song for the first time as a teenager when it came out reminded me that our idols are just like us when it comes to exploring their mrntal health and that, although it is possible and IMPORTANT to move on after a death of a loved one, it still hurts every bit of our heart and i think that is the reason why i still feel a bit reluctant to listen to this song when i want to listen to ari calm songs (i would rather listen to moonlight ngl😂) or when i am listening to the album by myself🖤
Max was more than her ex, they we’re best friends and he helped her the most when the bombing at a Manchester concert happened. She had so much anxiety and Mac helped her through that. He always told her to just breathe hence the song. This song and others when she’s referencing Mac are always so heartbreaking. You’re right she has been through so much.
It’s truly such a beautiful song. It’s my fav song by her
I love this song so much because when I was really getting into her music I added a bunch of her songs on to a playlist and shuffled. It was around Christmas time and my family and I were going to my grandmas house the weekend before finals. I was so stressed over doing well and having to study while the rest of my family go to relax. We where almost there and it was dark out and the song came on when I was falling asleep and it just comforted my so much that I played it again latter that night to fall asleep. It is such a beautiful song and I love it so much.
you should react to "off the table" by Ariana and the Weekend. It's about her being unsure that she'll find love again after Mac.
I definitely need more Ariana content, I love her music so much.
Even tho ari write very personal songs I think she also always wants her audience to be able to relate to them as well which is why she used the word ghosting him instead of forgetting him. So that way her fans can also relate to the song as if it was a normal breakup scenario
Such a great reaction! Thank you for sharing!🥹
Obsessed with ur channel rn!! I rly recommend dealer by lana del rey because the song is literally on repeat on my phone
if you want more ariana to react to i would recommend get well soon, theres a long moment of silence making the song 5 min 22 sec, 5/22 being the daye of the manchester attack and the song in general talks about her anxiety and ptsd and being there for each other. also fake smile, in my head, imagine, better off, off the table
I’m happy that she found peace, a supportive husband(now with a private relationship and that’s better for them), supportive family and friends. Quarantine was good for her surely
She deserves what she has now after going through a lot
This song is the most saddest song i EVER heard.Ariana is just to good at this i love her and she always makes me happy no matter what❤😢
Losing anyone is hard but Losing an ex or someone you're in a relationship with is a different kind of pain . I lost my ex dec 7th 2022 but we were still friends and messing around. The last thing he said to me was he loved me. So surreal ..
Not an Ariana fan, but this is one of my favorite songs. I can't sing along or I will cry, it's so beautiful and painful. The end just destroys me.
I hate the hate she’s been receiving for her relationship now. Let the girl be happy. Especially after this song and album, that’s what she deserves. Fuck the rest, it doesn’t matter. All that matters is she’s finally in a loving relationship. Fuck all the haters
I feel like this song was made before Mac passed. It sounds like she left Mac for Pete but she did it so quickly that there was still interacting with Mac . That’s why she says she cries instead of ghosting him. Ghosting would be blocking or not communicating with the other person. It sounds like she still had a connection whether it’s calling or texting. I can imagine she cared enough to not want to lose that connection or still worried about him so she didn’t block or ghost him.
It was definitely written and recorded after he passed. “Ghostin” is just a clever take on what it means to “ghost” someone in this day and age. You can hear the grief and pain in her voice
Idk if anyone’s said already but to answer your question, when she says ghostin’, she means to ‘ignore and forget’ about him,
just as someone would ignore and forget a text message by somebody.
She’s saying she knows it breaks Pete’s heart when she’s crying over Mac repeatedly, instead of trying to accept what’s happened and move on but that feels impossible for her at that time.
re Ariana having gone through so much: I also think about how Mac Miller fans threatened her and blamed her for his OD for months after he died
I just heard about this and it makes me sick! I want to make a video on how someone with addiction issues is responsible for their own lives and choices. It was not her duty to “save” him bc no one can really save someone, he would have to do it for himself. And what, she just keeps dealing with the toxicity that comes with loving an addict so that he doesn’t OD?! Is that a life for her?! So messed up. It really gets me worked up!!!
id absolutely LOVE a reaction to Mac Millers song circles. i think knowing about his addictions and what ultimately happened, it’s one of the saddest songs i’ve ever heard. id love to see your reaction/interpretation of it.
Hello, i may be very late to this video
But there are actually hidden voice recordings of Mac Miller. They are blurred and modified so you wouldnt be able to hear them, you can hear them in stripped version only
Damn this song got me in my feels when I was 13 (I was a huge ari stan back then) Needy is also really sad.
I went through something so similar the man i believed was my soul mate overdosed after I chose someone over him because of his addiction. The feeling of loving two people and knowing your hurting them is the worst feeling. I didn't even know this song existed until today
one of my good friends lost her boyfriend from an overdose. Although it wasnt impossible given his circumstances, it was still sudden and heartbreaking. I have never heard someone cry so hard or seen such pain as i saw her in when he passed. my boyfriend was his best friend and it hurt him deeply and still does, but it was a different, unbearable pain for her. it makes me think that losing your person/ the love of ur life is a separate type of grief. there is a cause of death in widows called broken heart syndrome, where the pain the person feels literally stops their heart.
Not sure if you knew this at the time but the opening and continuing instrumental is a slowed version from Mac Millers song - 2009 which if you listen to that song will bring you to tears also because it’s from Macs perspective
i love this song sm i feel so bad for her
pls do ariana grande "pov" and "off the table". its written after " ghositin"
6:34 I'm already crying 😭 😅
best song of all time
Apparently there was a third verse but Ariana struggled singing it cuz it was too much so that’s why the end it just strings and harmonies 💔 I hate how we got this song but I love it so much
She also said this was the worst song for her to write. Understandable. You can also hear the fact that this hurts her in het voice
Off the table and safety net are somewhat similar to ghostin if you wanted to check them out :)
not sure if anyone knew this I only found out today but if you listen to the official stems, towards the middle and at the very end, Ari sampled a clip of her and Mac laughing together (from the same clip she posted on instagram of them/the audio that went viral on tiktok) with him saying “babyy” and her giggling and saying “it makes me happy 🥹”
she put it just in the back so it’s not noticeable but he’s still in there 🥺🥺
there’s another song by ariana for mac, it’s called remember and it’s a beautiful song
Addiction is the worst evil (in my opinion) the way it destroys the heart of the ones you love. I feel a sense of her pain, he will never walk through that door again by choice or speak and see to his kids anymore on his own accord. Gave up legal and physical custody 18 months ago. They already lost him & so did I
you absolutely need to do needy by ariana it’s basically my soul in a song!!!!
One of my favorites of her whole discography
Honestly I think you should listen to “pov” by Ariana. It’s the last song on her latest album. It’s kind of like the light at the end of the tunnel regarding the beautiful tragedies of her love life. Lol I think you could pull a lot from that song!
now a therapist need a therapist
I went through this exact thing so it really hit me.
beautiful song
You need to do more ari songs!
and at the end it’s just some instrumental and vocals cause she wasnt able to finish it😢
928 missed calls…
I need your reaction to all of eternal sunshine ☀️
