10 Songs From Ariana Grande's "Sweetener Tour" That Are Even Better Live
Sadie Williams

In This Article:

At the end of June, I went to Ariana's Philly show with my friends and had the time of my life. We were in the pit, so we were really close to her and had such an amazing experience hearing and seeing all of our favorite songs from "Sweetener" and "thank u, next" live in concert.

Here are just 10 songs (out of about 28) she performed that were my personal favorites in terms of vocals, energy, and aesthetic:

1. "Sweetener"

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aeVCYDbgT6w

The energy the crowd has during this song is unmatched. Everyone screaming "MIX IT AND MIX IT AND MIX IT AND MIX IT" in unison while jumping was the closest we've ever been to world peace.

2. "Get Well Soon"

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BvbC1z7SjKU

The vocals and visuals of "Get Well Soon" live are so dreamy and beautiful.

3. "God is a Woman"

PERIOD. Do I even have to explain why?

4. "Everytime"

Anna Williams

This was one of the most fun and energetic performances of the night. She hit all the high notes perfectly.

5. "7 Rings"

The power this song has while the crowd chants "I see it, I like it, I want it, I got it".......whew.

6. "NASA"

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bkyNyOhdhwA

"NASA" was definitely her most aesthetically pleasing performance because of the visuals of the moon and galaxy. The song itself is one of the best on the "thank u, next" album in my opinion, so I was looking forward to seeing it live. I was not disappointed!

7. "No Tears Left To Cry"

Now that was a classic.

8. "Break Up With Your Girlfriend, I'm Bored"

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5cNpWpBizxE

The choreography for this number.....wig.

9. "R.E.M"

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f_YvCQU9Gzk

Excuse me, ummmm. This is the dreamiest, most chill song in her discography and it's even better live. That's that on that.

10. "Bad Idea"

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9iwz07ybeeo

An underrated masterpiece that deserves more appreciation. The choreo, the lyrics, the vocals, the energy. We had to stan.

Honorable mention: "Thank U, Next"

Let us take a moment to honor this bop.

It was the encore of the "Sweetener Tour" and it was honestly the best choice of song to end such an amazing show.

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
