Original: First year of Ariana’s presidency Sad: Last year of Ariana’s presidency

This version shows Ariana's vulnerability. It's almost like she is singing about falling head over heels in love with someone, wanting to do everything for them - just to hope that the love is reciprocated..💔

I feel like she wrote it like this, but turned it into a faster pop beat because she was tired of being sad.

this kinda gives me the vibe that she’s begging for him to stay, even willing to change herself and her morals, only for him to "never need no one else"

never thought this song could be sad

It went from “I’m switching positions for my man 🤪🥰” to “I’m switching positions for a man who doesn’t even care about me 😔😢”

Yo it's sounds like she's actually crying while singing this.

**sad twerking**

shes switching positions for him but he never notices how much hard work she puts it into.

It's like she is always doing everything for her man and pretends to like it, but actually doesn't want to.

okay this version definitely sounds like she's the only one working for the relationship.

I find it really interesting that she seems to lose her voice throughout the song almost as if she's tired from switching positions and the fact that at some points she doesn't hit those high notes is almost like she's lost her energy and is just a shell of who she once was.

This literally changed the meaning of the song. It’s almost like she’s lying the whole time, and is secretly in love with someone else or something but is pretending to love him because she’s scared. And she’s just saying all those things because she’s scared too.

This makes her sound so tired from changing herself to fit a guy and his life...

This COMPLETELY changes the meaning for me

*crying about that non-existent boyfriend has entered the chat*

it's like she does so much for her man, and she loves him so much, but he doesn't appreciate her.

My take on this version: She works so hard to make her man happy, but he never does the same. she's trying to convince herself that it's normal, but in reality, she's been blinded by her own unconditional love.

Imagine the slowed and reverbed sad version? depression with a side of depression topped with depression

imagine Ariana saw this

I love how this song can mean anything depending on you & how you feel.

Ok I totally prefer this version. It actually makes the song meaningful and raw. I really felt something emotional in my heart when I heard this. You could maybe add some violins to some parts. I imagine a low key music video to go with it, in some town like Italy or something. Where she sadly looks over a balcony, takes walks alone down the street, stares at her reflection in ponds.

This sounds like she’s had multiple failed relationships in the past and she feels like it’s all her fault so now she’s gonna try and be perfect and do everything for the man that she’s with cause she doesn’t wanna “repeat history”

That "I'm just hoping I don't repeat history" hit so different thooooo 💔💖

I didn’t even think it was possible to make it sad version but this one just hits different 😳

to me this sounds like someone in a toxic relationship switching up to fit the person's needs and wants so tht they don't leave them. so she's like switching positions for them bc her love is infinite for them and there's nothing she wouldn't do for them. but then when she says stuff like "but i get tired of running" it means like she's tired of doing what she does for them, but she does it anyway because at least she's running with them . idk if tht made sense

No one: Me: *cries and dances at the same time to this bop*

omggg YESSSS

It’s like she was in a relationship and her boyfriend doesn’t want her no more and she’s doing her best to fix the relationship and doesn’t want no one but him wow

WHY IS PEOPLE NOT REACTING TO THIS I think they should cause this is such a masterpiece!! Edit: OMG thank you for the likes!

This sad versions makes me think of a girl finally found the man she wanted but because mistakes that happened in her past relationships, she learned from those mistakes and she wants to do everything possible to keep him and make him happy so that she doesn’t lose him so she’s switching her positions/changing herself.

pov: you’ve always been that one friend that takes care of everyone and makes sure everyone is happy. always the energetic one. always the cheerful one. always the happy one..no one ever thought about the things you’re going through they’ve seen you as the happy one. little did they know it isn’t you, you were broken inside. feared to talk about your feelings cause you’ve always thought that everyone would judge you and never understand what you’re going through. edit ; hello i just wanna say. that it truly makes me sad to see how many people in these comments relate to this, and what makes me more sad is that i can’t help much so please just know that you are amazing just the way you are and you are perfect make this your safe place if it’s needed you could rant at anytime and i promise i’ll try to help in every way possible! love you all!

It’s time for you to stop switching positions for others. Stand your ground. They should love you not a different version of you.

It has a totally different meaning in the sad version '' Switching positions FOOOORR YOUUU 😢😢😢😢 ''

i relate to this sad version, i am in head over heels for someone, and i would do anything for him. although, it's difficult for him to show me any affection, so i continue to do everything it takes in order to get him to appreciate me. i prefer this version💙

I am ready and in my bed with closed lights ready to cry

Why is this better then the regualr version omg TYSFMMMMM FOR THE LIKES OMFG!

I was watching mukbangs and ended up here, not complaining tho

This entirely changed my mood. made me sit back and realize the meaning of the song, makes you wanna cry, Ariana deserves the world

This sounds like an abusive relationship where she is always tired because he is so greedy and tries to make him happy by calling him perfect and stuff 🥺

I can’t wait till POV 🤩 this is also so ggod

*Throw it back depressingly* 😔

The man I wanted to marry died in early July. My heart is forever shattered. I will never be the same person I once was. Benjamin I love you & I will see you in the heavens above or anywhere your spirit is I will join you one day again we're soul mates. ✨♥️💜💙💚💛🧡✨ I will FOREVER love you & this version of this song is amazing 🌈♥️🌈

its like she's giving her all to please him and just desperately wants him to know how much she loves him... damn ima cry

the original version is like “beach i am a multi tasking badass i wear the pants in this relationship and i make it work beach so pay me respect” your version is more like “i really tried my best to make it work. i thoughg my love was infinite, there really wasn’t anything i wouldn’t do for you....at the time. it was too much. i really tried.” great work 💙

All of Ariana grandes songs have a deeper meaning and a lot of times people don’t realize because even though her and dalton are married deep down she will always miss mac Miller and wonder what would’ve happened she justa puts a happier beat so it sounds like she’s happy. She’s an amazing artist and I wish nothing but the best for her.

I like this version more than the original song. It's really beautiful.

Wow.. the way the WHOLE meaning of this song changed... It’s like... she is doing everything for her love because she lives him so damn much, she is not able to help from loving him.. but he takes her for granted and doesn’t value her... MASTERPIECE

It is kind of romantic version rather than sad ❤❤ I felt loved

It sounds like she feels like she’s not good enough for someone so she’s doing all she can trying to keep him so hard and convince him to stay with her 💔

*Doing the WAP while having a mental breakdown and an identity crisis at the same*

It sounds like she is trying so hard and she loves him so much but she just doesn’t feel appreciated by him enough and she doesn’t know if she ever will..

1:46 know my love infinite, nothing I wouldn’t do sounds so sad omg🥺🥺🥺🥺

Oh God why am I crying 😢😭😭😭😭😭

It's like she's talking ab her exes and is so sad and tried her best for them to be happy, but they Ruined everything for her....🥺😭

moonlight records deserves a special place in my heart. all sad versions of ariana songs mean a lot to me and help me so much. thank you

This version actually made me cry

they just played this version on the radio a few mins ago - am so happy

This turned into a depressing melancholy song about an obsessive, needy woman desperate to continue a relationship that was dead from the beginning. Or maybe there never WAS a relationship to begin with and it’s all a fantasy in her head. She’s stalking this guy, pretending to do all this stuff he never even asked for. It ends in murder.

i didn't know a song this upbeat and happy, even in the lyrics, could be this sad. like, yeah, ariana's lyrics from thank u next were actually sad, but this is a genuinely happy and upbeat song, and it sounds so sad lmfao.

This made me loved the song more, and this made my realize how much I’ve done for someone that would never do the same for me, thanks for this !! Keep it up 🥺❤️

Me finding this 3 weeks later, something's wrong with KZfaq, this gave me chills

Omg, I never knew that this song could be turned into a sad version and have a completely different meaning. This is like the first song that I have listened to (That someone edited to make happy, sad, etc. version of the original) that is absolutely amazing! Great masterpiece!

Can’t believe ya turned the only positive vibed song I’m listening to sad-

I feel like this song has a close meaning to sexism like she has to do it cuz she's a woman .This is sad

"I'm just hoping I don't repeat history," I really relate to this I have healed and don't have feelings Now I have feelings for someone else, I just hopin I don't repeat history 💗

the lyrics sound different....like you guys literally showed the true meaning of the song wth.

She really should consider doing an acoustic version with this production and a video to go with it because this is so beautiful. 🥺 ❤️ ❤️ ❤️

Sometimes is not just to be reciprocate but to make them feel your love for them but is worthless, I'm a man, and as lot of women here can relate, do to hard for someone, switching everything hoping they'll notice, they'll care, they'll love u is not something, but u give what u are and that's your soul be proud of be someone who can love

the heaven sent u to me part simply hits different

This version gets stuck in my head....like it is just so addictive....this hits very differently....you are really really talented

If Ariana Listens To This I Am 100 % Sure She Is Gonna Cry ( Like Me 😭 )

MY GOD I'M IN LOVE WITH THIS

ok but I’m obsessed with that version

this is heavenly...she has an amazing voice and this slow version literally just made my day better than it was before..

This is better than the original 100%!!! Love it so much

nothing is better than sad songs

the original song: the start of her discography and how it all went so well and she was living her best life and loving everyone. she was so happy with her music and collaborations for her songs, but thinks about the betrayal of her ex's and death of Mac (R.I.P Mac 😭), so she struggles a lot with her next few albums. this version: she's coming to the end of "it" and can't stand life anymore because of how many let downs she's been been and thinks about how she's been strong enough to get through it all, and being close to releasing her next album, she's tired of making other people happy without focusing on herself and with Dalton by her side, she's thankful for his support and how he's stuck by her through this whole thing.

I genuinely thought this would still sound pop-ish, but you did a great job at making it sound sad

who knew this song was supposed to be sad and would actually make my tears come out! well, moonlight records did! :3

How can be this song so heart touching 😭😭 it's too much better than the original😩

It kinda gives off filter by jimin vibes rn, bc it feels like she’s saying that she’d change for them at any time just to please them, just like jimin sings, pick your filter. He’d change to whatever, whenever just to make the other person happy. Looking for options, he wants them to choose, “I can be your genie, how bout alladin?”. Ariana’s song reminds me of that, kinda :)

It's not sad for me It's relaxing like it's telling you everything will be okay

I don't like the original but I'm in LOVEEEEE WITH THIS!!!!!!! Wish ariana made a version like this like this hit my feels hard!!

*Sad twerking*

That’s a masterpiece, I’m amazed by how different it sounds with a different prod, totally different emotions coming out of the song

" My love infinite nothing I wouldn't do" Oh sad☹️

this sounds like her partner died and she's moving houses and packing all of there photo's and stuff it sounds so sad :(

Dude u have no idea, last year i was listening to your 'ariana sad version' songs just after i got cheated on lmao now im back again bc yo shit is just sooo good

Doesnt it feel like her husband died and she's singing this to him like "ill switch positions and be a mother AND a father for the kids, for you 💔" "You were too good to be true..." "Just because you died doesnt mean i won't visit your mom " ....

OMG IM SORRY BUT imagine a music video about this , and Ariana's sitting in a restaurant where her and Mac used to go and when it's the chorus, "meet your mama - I'm in the Olympics way" it shows her flash backs of her meeting his mum, cooking with him, laying next to him in bed , omg ik she's with Dalton now but still, and while she's in the restaurant these flashbacks come up in b&w in slow motion

This is... *Golden*

pov: shes sick and tired of having the same types of toxic relationships. she just wants to be happy, but no matter how hard she tries (switching positions), its never good enough for him. he’s never happy, and he wants her to be perfect...he wants her to change herself for him, but shes sick and tired of it...🥺

i'm crying a bit and bopping at the same time

FOR THIS TYPE OF CONTENT I'M PAYING MY INTERNET BILLS .

Yeeessss been waiting for the sad version, thank you!

**starts dancing emotionally** 👁💧👄💧👁

This version makes it sound like her management want her to act a certain way and dress a certain way so she’ll gain popularity from society/media and she is tired of it but she is willing to keep it up because she knows her fans look up to her and her love is infinite to them so she’ll do it but she’s just tired
