  • how much of Ariana Grande’s album, Eternal Sunshine, is inspired by the 2004 movie, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind? How much is her own experience? We might never know, but happy coincidences or not, I had so much fun drawing similarities between the two! This video is a two-in-one: an analysis of Joel and Clementine’s love story and Ariana’s lyrics across the album’s 13 tracks. I hope you enjoy and I’d love to hear what you think too! 😊

      SOOO MANY...but today ...imperfect for you...least is ordinary things (but i love it for what it is)...i breathe ES....with yes and ?....I see it of more of an introduction to this era...with house music you either get it or you just don't...sort of like with eternal Sunshine...you either get the album or you just don't.. and that's okay...because that just means it wasn't meant for you at this point..but I see yes and as more of the vibe of the era and just carrying a message...instead of this type of song that she thinks everyone will love...I think she was aware this is a song most people might not like...especially coming from her since it's not the kind of sound she usually does

    @Sabrina-sc1db 3 месяца назад +70

    Halfway in the video, and I just wanna say, that something I think was lovely in the movie, and that i think you missed (or didnt mention) . I love it when Clem is having a meltdown when they find out they forgot each other, and she spirals into thinking they are doomed, and overthinking the whole thing, and Joel just says "ok", he's willing to fuck around and find out, he wants to see it through, they, even knowing they failed once, are willing to try again, and figure out if the cycle will repeat. I think it was the most romantic part, knowing it may hurt, and still going for it
    (Psa of course, since i dont wanna give a wrong message, but getting hurt in a relantionship isnt the same as being in an abusive one. If this is the case for anyone, leave, leave, leave. Its not romantic in this case)

    I love your analysis of this album! Your opening line about how you're choosing to comment on the artwork itself and not her personal life is something I wish more people understood. I love seeing the parallels with that film, you can tell she put her heart into this album. I totally agree about the lyrics aspect of the album, compared to Positions which sounded like she was just doing it for fun, this one felt like her baby she cared for in every little detail

    honestly this is the best album ive heard . not only sound , lyrics, meaning . everything is just what i wanted to ever experience , none of her other ambums can compete with this . i alaways listen to it in order ( i ve never done that with an album ) but the other day " the boy is mine " started playing and i felt like no it needs " true stroy " . and then i keept going up until i found myself inat the " intro " and played it in order without even realizing that . " yes , and ? " threw me off a littel bc i really liked the song but didn't want the whole album to be the same theme . and that's what she did . im super grateful to this album and body of art

    i LOVE this interpretation! the first few times listening to the album, i was really trying to figure out all the connections to the movies, and this video confirms a lot of what i thought!!
    on “bye” i also did initially think it should go after “eternal sunshine”, but the more i think about it, it does make sense where it’s placed on the album. i think that her saying “bye” was the first kinda confirmation that she had to get out of the relationship (hence why it turns from a relationship in “intro” to a situationship in “don’t wanna break up again” possibly ? 👀
    and i’m not gonna lie, after “eternal sunshine,” the song to movie connections kinda got fuzzy in my mind, but i think the way u laid it out makes so much sense. one thing i thought of before i watched this video was that “we can’t be friends” is kinda related to the scene where joel says “okay” (at the end of the movie when they are back together, after all the mind erasing happens). bc it’s like “we can’t be friends, but i’d like to just pretend…” and even when u get mad / avoidant (cling to papers and pens), i’ll still wait for you to come back around (“wait until u like me again”)!
    okay tbh i’m just yapping at this point but thank u for this amazing video! i’ve been looking for something like this so i’m so glad it came up in my recommended :)

    I recently watched the movie and listened to the album in full, and I noticed the cohesiveness of Eternal Sunshine, probably because it was inspired by the movie. Every song sounds like it’s telling a part of the same story. It’s like a loop, and in the middle there are all these squiggly lines trying to make sense of what happened in between. But at the end you’re right back where you started.

    a. how does this not have millions of views. b. for your question: best song: Ordinary Things (YEAH I KNOW YOU DIDNT SEE THAT ONE COMING!) worst song: I Wish I Hated You- the music is a bit annoying. i get how it tells a story but the music annoys me, and it just feels more like a heavy book rather than a song with music. I personally think she could have made the music louder, or more detailed. But that's just for me. Yes And is hella good btw, and I love the intro so fking much.
