Ariana Grande surprise-released a live album on Tuesday morning (Sept. 8) featuring all of the tracks from her most recent petal studio album. petal (The Complete Live Album) was released as an iTunes exclusive and announced in an early morning post from the singer revealing that it features all 12 songs from the studio LP.
The album — available here — features live versions of the tracks “Kiss Me,” “Petal,” “Stay,” “Oh Well,” “Big Feelings,” “Freak” and “Warning Signs,” as well as a version of the LP’s lead single, “Hate That I Made You Love Me,” recorded during a rehearsal for the singer’s just-concluded Eternal Sunshine tour. Arianators will also hear live takes on “Like I Do,” “Never Get Over Me,” “Bad Thing (Bunny Hop)” and “Nowhere, Nobody.”
Grande wrapped her Eternal Sunshine tour on Sept. 1 with her final show in London, where she once again made another tweak to her “Thank U, Next” lyrics in honor of on-again boyfriend Ricky Alvarez. “Wrote some songs about Ricky/ I’m tryna make him my last,” she sang in her latest revamp of the song, adding more fuel to the fiery rumors that she and her ex are potentially rekindling their romance.
Ari and Alvarez dated from 2015 to 2016 for about a year, after meeting and working together on Grande’s Honeymoon Tour and it has appeared lately as if they are giving it another shot. Last month, the singer posted several selfies, including ones in which she was cuddling with former backup dancer Alvarez.
Grande announced in early August that she’s taking “a step back” from public engagements amid “ongoing public scrutiny,” including dropping out of her planned co-starring role in the West End revival of Sunday in the Park With George; her Wicked co-star Jonathan Bailey recently announced that he too is dropping out of the production.
Grande released her eighth studio album, petal, in July; the LP debuted atop the Billboard 200 with 295,000 total album-equivalent units earned.
