Ariana Grande‘s much-awaited album Eternal Sunshine reached over 43 million streams on Spotify exactly three days after its premiere.

Being her seventh studio album, fans have been impressed with the 13-track project which continues to gain positive reviews.

The album, made up of pop and  R&B influences, was released on March 8, 2024, by Republic Records. Prior to the release, Grande dropped two singles as a prelude to the record.

Titles such as Ordinary Things,  I Wish I Hated You, We Can’t Be Friends (Wait for Your Love), True Story, Supernatural Grande, Don’t Wanna Break Up, and Eternal Sunshine, feature prominently on the album.

Ariana Grande is now reported as the first woman to have multiple albums (Thank u, next,  and Eternal Sunshine) and produce multiple number-one songs on Spotify globally.

The first single off the album, Yes and? reached over six million streams on Spotify and was also reported as No. 1 on Spotify Global for six consecutive days in its first weeks. The video for the song also reached over 20 million views on YouTube.

Ariana Grande released the track in mid-January as a major handiwork since her last project in 2020. The upbeat rendition has Grande singing about healing and not caring about other people’s comments.

Yes and? According to Spotify data, Ariana Grande’s 89th single surpassed this milestone of 100 million streams.

Followers will look forward to how well other songs on the new Eternal Sunshine album perform in the months ahead.
