Ariana Grande Unveils Alternate ‘Petal’ Disc & Haunting Song Snippets: ‘Good Luck on Your Way to Hell’

"All of the human life I’ve dreamt of will be real if I start over," she sings on one of the unreleased tracks.

The Story

Ariana Grande just gave fans a bouquet of exciting new goodies ahead of the release of Petal, sharing an alternate picture disc of the album and two revealing snippets of unreleased songs on the project.

In an Instagram post on Wednesday (July 8), the pop star began her carousel with a sideways black-and-white photo of her face, partially covered by shadows and an unfocused flower. The snap is printed on an exclusive batch of discs now available for preorder on her website.

She then included two videos featuring samples of the songs on Petal, one of which she filmed in a studio while listening to a mix over the speakers. “Good things can replace dysfunction, obsession/ Thanks but I’ll see you right out/ Good luck on your way to hell/ Oh, well,” Grande sings in reverb-drenched stacks of a cappella harmonies.

The Grammy winner didn’t specify in her post, but based on the lyrics, the snippet may have come from track five on Petal, “Oh Well.” Grande previously unveiled the tracklist in a visual countdown at stops on her ongoing Eternal Sunshine Tour.

“Someday all the seeds will open/ All of the human life I’ve dreamt of/ Will be real if I start over/ How will it feel?” she sings in the second song snippet Grande included in the post, which was similarly stripped of accompaniment to focus on her haunting vocals.

Arriving two years after her last album, Eternal Sunshine — which spent three weeks atop the Billboard 200 and produced two No. 1 hits on the Billboard Hot 100 with “Yes, And?” and “We Can’t Be Friends” — Petal is set to drop on July 31. So far, she’s shared only one song from the set: lead single “Hate That I Made You Love Me,” which debuted atop the Hot 100.
