Ariana Grande - yes, and? (https://open.spotify.com/intl-es/track/7gaA3wERFkFkgivjwbSvkG?si=823e318482bf4d11)

Written and Produced by Ariana Grande, Ilya and Max Martin

They really gave us 47 seconds of intro.
It's so retro, I love it, I've never seen Ilya or Max using those drum samples, like Lady Gaga's Babylon which itself resembles Vogue by Madonna

After 10 years Ariana Grande earned the producer credit, finally!

Aside from some crunchy, muddled production and muffled vocal mixing, the song packs a punch and the chorus is an earworm. Another hit for Ari and Max. How long had it been since Max got a #1?

I hope it's another #1, numbers in Spotify might tell that it's going to be.
It'd be max's first #1 since My Universe in 2021

Weird. I thought the vocal mixing is spot on and the vocals sound really good on this one  ;D

I thought the panning was a bit weird but I'm enjoying it.

Full album is out. Almost all Max and Ilya, with a OZGO (best song on the album, supernatural).

We Can't Be Friends is my fave by far.

Ilya did a great job.

Supernatural got me since the very beginning, the album is awesome but I think it lacks big songs for singles, everything is mid to down tempo.
Ariana has come a long way, I can see her input in the production and the way she comps her vocals.

Ariana Grande: 'eternal sunshine', Wicked & Tour | Apple Music

Ariana interviewed by Zane Lowe.
She said she spent some time out with Max and he gave her a folder with a lot of beats.

He may have given her the folder of Cheiron hahaha, that would explain the leaked song fantasize, I'm disappointed that she didn't do anything remotely to that.
I mean, she said she hated it and she also said she would include something of that kind in the album, but I'm not hearing it.

Supernatural remix featuring Troye Sivan makes a lot of sense, Oscar Görres gets Troye more than anyone

Exactly what I thought

I think this actually was for Troye. I don't know.
They make music and pitch it somehow and write over tracks.

It fits them though. Love the song.

The synths in the chorus remind me a bit of On My Mind by Ellie Goulding and So It Goes by Taylor Swift. It could be an unused track from 2015-2019.

Sounds very much like him.
