#ArianaGrande #thankunext #GeniusNews
Ghostin is an apology to Pete because she was still thinking & in love with mac
Pete is so overlooked in all of this, the poor guy really went down
José Pedro Teixeira he also used to text Mac and send him pics of him and Ariana he’s an ass
@@postmalone6623 noone knows if this actually happened
@@postmalone6623 It's a false story bruh. You really believed in TMZ huh?
@@G17x I still don't believe in Pete Davidson.
This album was the more lyrically and narratively complex than anything she’d done before
is your pfp a fat katara XD
Nathan that’s a korra
Thats why I love this album
for sure
which is why I felt like it deserved a Grammy but it’s ok she’s still a queen 💜
Tragic. They were endgame.
Yeah
i love that he referred to mac as ariana's ex AND BEST FRIEND like YES that is SO IMPORTANT
“She’s like an angel” I LOST IT 😭😭😭💔
Tenisa White same , just sitting here at midnight crying 💔💔
OMG THIS IS SOOO SAD😭😭
Tenisa White “Don’t call me angel”
As soon as I heard angel I started to cry, rest in peace Mac :(
😔
They have the saddest love story of all time I could see the chemistry between the two the first time I ever watch the video of the way rip Mac missing you everyday 🤧😇
Lowkey Lowkey I said the same thing years ago when the video first came out. It was electric, their chemistry. 😞
they were definitely meant for each other it’s so sad 😭
Well it was not a love story, cuz' they broke up and dated other people..
L B. it’s called a rebound. they liked each other but addiction pulled them apart
me too. there was so much chemistry while they were filming 'the way' that i even thought they were dating for real. turns out they were just friends, and i was cool with that though i honestly still shipped them in spite of ari dating someone else back then. i thought they'd make a great couple, and i was right. i didn't see it coming but i definitely wasn't surprised when i found out they're dating. it was bound to happen from the start. too bad it was also bound to end.
Everytime I hear "ghostin'" I cry and I can't control it. This is the only song that makes me cry that fast. [*]
literally me
Literally same :(
Me too😭 i cant stop to cry
me too but only sometimes.
Same
I feel like Ariana and him would’ve gotten back together
yeah they seemed so happy together 😔
100%
Weren't they an on-off-on-off relationship?
CheesecakeLasagna I think so
M C the reason they broke up was cause Mac wasn’t staying sober
RIP MAC MILLER
Rip
🙏🏼
RIP
😂
@@ashtonhatton-pocklington6252 wtf
0:50 I thought the lyrics were 'stepped off the tour bus' lol
Sarah Pemburton I thought it was step out the two of us??
Me too!!!
Glad I'm not the only one
I thought it sepadadooady
isnt it “step up the two of us”
You never appreciate what you have til it’s gone
Time don’t give a fuck about clocks until they broke🖤
The best thing I’ve read on here. Not saying they didn’t love each other it’s totally obvious but it’s like she was over something and felt like she didn’t have to deal with it anymore but Pete doesn’t seem to different when it comes to drugs
Exactly. Brush your teeth don't wait 'til they're gone
my everything lyrics
jessie thijs .....
This really breaks my heart. Their love was something incomprehensible💔
Definitely. Can't comprehend how she could fall for him :/
To me the beginning of the song ghostin’ sounds like Mac millers “self care” just slower and stretched out more. 🤔
Shut up
alex perez, Alex 😂 wth leave
mariela delgado upload the amazon remake
Yes I thought the same!!!!
mariela delgado it does!!!
They were honestly the cutest couple ever, if he hadn’t od’ed they would definetely have ended up together.
Bruh they broke up stop waffling
@@xovix9757 they probably had a lot of unresolved problems
*doubt*
No they weren't
They liked donuts
“Imagine” to me now sounds like a desperate ballad from someone to their lover to just see what the world could be if they let them. It sounds like in the movies when the couple is standing in the rain crying to one another and arguing. That’s what I picture it especially with the chorus “why can’t you imagine a world like that?” She doesn’t understand how he can’t see how beautiful the world could be if he let it. Idk I guess that’s kinda just how I see it
This is so spot on
yea thats true but its also one of my favorite songs ever
for me the song is about how their life couldve been perfect if they'd stayed together
Dude yes. I actually thought it was anger when she said those words like a cry out for him to understand or at least imagine.
I'll never listen to imagine the same way again
"I wish he were here instead" that got me dying
R.I.P *Mac miller*
Forever in our hearts❤✊
Kung-Fu Kenny Family forever n ever

Nipsey X and peep too
You forgot in ghostin Mac Miller laugh is secretly inside in the song look for ghostin vocals
How can a 162 people like this and I’m the only reply
@@jackcreely7231 ikr😂
someone said there's also a "i love you ariana" in the song, at the end
Omg
Where?
Did anyone catch Mac Millers "Yeah" sampled in Imagine?
Could you explain?
what?
@@baby5720 in the pre-chorus, if you listen well, you'll hear he is saying damn in the background.
@@baby5720 Yup, when listening on headphones it's easier to catch
Bout to find out lol
im really heartbroken to say this but mac and arianas relationship is the literal definition of right person wrong time.
I knew that this album was beyond special to ari but I didn’t realize until this video how much about it was about Mac. I love them both and very happy that they had each other while they did that stuff is special and truly once sometimes not even that in a life time. RIP Mac you will forever be loved by us all ♥️
Oh great. Now im gonna cry everytime i hear Imagine.
welcome to the club : )
its my favorite song ever
same :,)
“She’s like the greatest person in the world. She’s like an angel.”
🥺🥺🥺🥺
Damn she's the first to make "Skrrt" so beautiful
Mac Miller: she’s like an angel
Ariana Grande: Dont Call me Angel
😂😂😂😂
Only macs aloud to lmao
I always thought that the first lyric of imagine was: “step of the tour bus, nobody knows us”. I feel so dumb 😂
It sounds perfect as that aswell 😂
lmao sweaaaaaar 😂
@@_veedownnn7992 yeah it is cause Ariana released an official lyric video and it was step up the 2 of us so the people who made this got it wrong 😂
Y’all here to cry over Mac’s death? Cool me too 😭
Love that peep hoodie!!!
Ikr
Yeaah
Where is it from?
@@hanna3847 part of the come over when your sober 2 album merch
Hanna album + hoodie COWYS 2 bundle
If you slow down ghostin in the last instrumental part you can hear “I love you Ariana” it is mac’s voice I cried there is a comment on the ghostin video and it is very emotional
So sad..i love you Ariana and Mac will have a special spot in the rap game and in my heart.
Wonder how things would've been if they didn't break up or at least stayed on good terms until they figured themselves out. This video always makes me cry.
Ari got with pete too fast. I know it was a rebound but i really wish that she waited a little longer to figure things out with Malcolm.
You look like sheraseven lol
Mac wasnt a rapper,he was a true artist.
He was too good for this world,man..
rest easy,larry.
Mac Miller is very underrated, i felt so bad for ari knowing how close she was with him. RIP Mac🙏🏼
Cant help but feel bad for Pete Davidson... she shouldnt have got engaged to someone if she still loved someone else.
True, but everyone makes mistakes
AnaSofia Veneno haha big fuckin oops
You can love more than one person.
Daniel Neves nah
Fuck him
🖤Mac I’m sure is proud of Ari 🖤
Ay the peep hoodie
Who left this bowl of onions here ?
Ghostin is one of the most beautiful and emotional songs I've heard in a while
ghostin is probs one of the saddest songs ever. they had a love like no other. ☹️
3 years later and I’m still here watching everything I can with Malcom’s name in to make sure he stays relevant. Ariana seems like a sweetheart and I wish her nothing but the best. I met Mac a handful of times and he was the kindest soul. Miss you brother and hope your legacy lives on forever
ghostin sounds nothing like 2009. it sounds like they sampled self care instead
it is similar. but the beat was just slowed down
Tbh honest it Sound more like they played it backwards
@@Hadais exactly what I think everytime I hear it.
that’s how sampled works bro & that’s what they said
Can I just ask how disputed the first line of 'imagine' is? On Genius, it's 'Step up the two of us', on the official lyric video it's the same, on this video it's ' 'Cept for the two of us' and other lyric videos it's 'Step off the tour bus'. What is it actually ? Anyone?
Bro I’m confused now because I always thought that everyone though it was step up the two of us. That’s how I learned the lyrics, but looking at the other lyrics they kind of make more sense than “step up the two of us”
It is "Step up the two of us"
Honestly. "Step off the tour bus" makes sense with the following lyrics. But idk
i learnt it as “stop at the tour bus” lol i’ve been wrong this whole time
step up the two of us
5:11 seconds of me crying non stop
Poor Ariana , she really loves him and can’t forget him , RIP Mac we love you
I cried when he was like “she’s da best person ever, she’s like a angel” ❤️❤️❤️😭😭😭😭😭😭🌞
it’s horrible how ari messed with pete, but it’s more horrible knowing that someone you loved died. still crying over mac. rip.
I’m so glad she kept “ghostin” cuz that’s one of my favorite on thank you next😍but it’s also sad and it makes me cry😭😞
The beginning part in “ghostin” reversed sounds like “2009” by mac
I saw a comment saying "You never appreciate what you have until it's gone" Tell me about it. That was written before quarantine
True 😢
4:26 this part is just so beautiful🤍
If you listen carefully to Imagine you hear Mac Miller in the background saying, "Damn" when she says, "click click click"
i heard it :o
Love you forever Mac, Rip brother 🙏🏾😔
I still can’t believe he’s really gone.. i can’t get it through my head knowing we will never have new music from him and that does sit right with me. Rest In Peace Malcolm. You’ve got angels now no more satan🕊🖤
I feel like ghostin was all about mac but also maybe an apology to pete !? Idk but yes atleast we all are sure that ghostin is bout mac - 100%🥺 THIS MAKES ME CRY UK
*Im in Manchester showing my respects🐝❤️*
never thought a Genius video would make me cry
Overall,'thank u,next' was my favorite record that she has made.....period.....
Crazy how “they’ll love you when your gone” applies here so much
literal chills throughout this entire video. we miss you mac.
they were soulmates for sure
rip mac 💓🕊
So nobody's gona talk about how at 0:50 the words are step off the tour bus and not cept for the two of us??????
The lyrics are “step up the two of us” it’s in the official lyric video.
I’m so glade she didn’t take off ghostin
*_R.I.P MAC MILLER 😢_*
R.I.P Mac also love the hoodie 🐐
Literally the WHOLE SONG. Was connected directly towards Mac in my eyes
‘though I wish here were here instead, don’t want that living in your head. he just comes to visit me, when I’m dreaming every now and then’ - ariana grande, ghostin. the best lyric she’s wrote.
this is heartbreaking. she is so strong
RIP Mac😓💔
0:06 nobody talkin bout the peep hoodie here?
Righttt
they loved each other, knowing they weren’t able to love each other the way the other needed and knowing this will never be... makes me cry
Ghostin breaks my heart into a million pieces every time
I still can’t believe he’s gone 💔
these comments make me rly sad & happy at the same time, i hope ariana finds closure & i hope mac is resting easy 💔
in one of macs songs, “come back to earth” he says “i just need a way out of my head, i’ll do anything for a way out of my head” this might have to do with in my head
BRO I WAS TALKING ABOUT THEIR RELATIONSHIP WITH MY FRIEND AND THIS SHIT CAME UP IN MY RECOMMENDATIONS AND NOW I WANNA CRY
why couldn’t of things been different... :(
i love this guy for wearing that hoodie
you can tell hes getting pretty tired of saying peace.
Mac: 4:56
Ariana: DON’T CALL ME ANGEL
R.I.P. mac
I love Thank You, Next, I know it’s not the best album , Vocally. But it’s so personally and emotionally it doesn’t have to be the best vocally to hit you hard right in the heart. I love Ariana and I hope she’s getting back The a healthy state of mind. I’m so happy to see how she’s back to a healthier weight
it’s so hard being an empath because i can feel exactly how she’s feeling i can feel the pain of losing someone u love so dearly even though i have never experienced it idk if that makes sense ahh
It’s so sad because Ariana is so sweet and she’s been through so much 😭
Long Live Mac Miller
I literally started crying when ghostin started.
Deadass started crying I couldn’t imagine losing someone you love like that Rip Mac
Also she sings “they see demon I see angel”
Yes it's about Pete.
Whether in my head is about Pete or Mac is debatable but I definitely think it's about Mac. She makes references to 'fixing him' which is relevant to Mac's addiction and it fits with their relationship better and the reasons they split up. Like 'said you wanted half of me' references better off
@@caitlin1767 nope. sorry dude. it's about Pete 100%
Caitlin Albertyn no she tried to fix pete’s issues
that's about pete lol
r.i.p mac
Love the Gus hoodie 😌
I love ghostin'. It's so genuine and from the heart.
It’s so sad to think they loved eachother so much but can never be together
I hate how some Ariana fans attack Pete even tho he did nothing wrong and Ariana was the one who broke up with him because of Mac. people need to pay attention smh
am i the only one who knew all these....oop. i really miss mac :(
they were soulmates
They really were my favourite couple..I was so devastated when they broke up you could really see the love radiate from them rip Malcolm
I just got recommended this today on Macs anniversary 🥺🖤
literally this broke my heart.
and you forget to said that in "Imagine" she didn't do a song with whistle notes since "the way" by Ari and Mac (but that's not a big detail) reast in peast Mac 🕊🖤
Ghostin and Imagine are by far the best songs on the album
I love the Lil Peep's COWYS Pt. 2 merch hoodie
