Ariana Grande Releases New Brighter Days Ahead Versions
This Tuesday, Ariana Grande released an a cappella and instrumental version of her recent album, eternal sunshine deluxe: brighter days ahead, along with a new alternative exclusive digital album cover.
The Grammy Award-winning singer has had a busy past year, starring in one of the biggest films of last year, Wicked, and performing and being nominated at this year’s Oscars. No one can stop Grande’s roll.
Last month, she released a new deluxe version of her recent album, eternal sunshine. Grande also made her directorial debut with her short film brighter days ahead. This week she posted to Instagram that two new versions of the deluxe were out now: a completely a cappella and instrumental version. Grande also released a digital version of brighter days ahead with a new alternative cover.
Fans are ecstatic to listen to the new versions, with many especially excited for the a cappella versions of songs like “twilight zone” and “ordinary things.”
One fan wrote, “Okay so the a capella version of eternal sunshine has me SOBBING her vocals are so f**king clear and beautiful. The layering on all the songs can be heard so clearly and her vocal strength. F**KING BEAUTIFUL I will never love an album more.”

It’s a good year to be an Arianator, as fans will see more acting and singing of the Wicked star with the sequel film, Wicked: For Good, which is set for November 21.
Grande shared more details about the sequel on Variety’s Awards Circuit Podcast. She spoke about a new original song created for the sequel film, created by the same composer of the Broadway musical, Stephen Schwartz.
“You feel it in the stages how because it happens in the wings and we see the result of it. But now we get to actually watch it happen and that’s a beautiful, beautiful thing…it’s such an honor to be the Glinda, to sing it first,” the “yes and?” singer stated.
