One Last time, by Ariana Grande, is full of guilt as she expresses to the world her unfaithfulness to someone who was once her boyfriend. She sang

with her heart as she insists “one last time” with her ex-boyfriend. The “one last time” was considered the final goodbye between the two of them. This song was released in 2015 on her album, My Everything, which consists of R&B-pop songs. Ariana Grande makes it clear that she has made a mistake, which happened to be cheating on a former boyfriend.

“I was a liar, I gave into the fire,” is how the song begins, expressing how she gave into something that cost her, her relationship. It’s clear that she’s writing this song about herself, as she keeps referring to “I”. Interesting enough, this album consists of a number of love songs, so it’s clear to the audience that as she was writing this album, she had been going through something with a former/current boyfriend. Quite a few instruments can be heard in the background, but one instrument that remained throughout were the drums. The drums remain steady throughout the whole song. The song has a moderately fast tempo from beginning to end. The lyrics to this song are beautiful as she pleads for him to give her one last time. “One more time; I promise after that, I’ll let you go,” is expressing that she promises it’s the last time she needs with him. Ariana Grande is known for writing her own lyrics from her own heart, which is why every song is so beautiful yet unique in different ways. Her songs consist of a number of topics that young adults can relate to. Sexism, bullying, homophobia, love, etc., is something that a lot of people don’t speak about. But within her songs, she sings with her heart about these topics which is extremely powerful as an artist. The music video for this song was space-themed which may have been confusing for viewers as this song is about a break up. As this music video was about the end of the world with several explosions, it has a deeper meaning to it. This video shows Ariana going through this disaster with her boyfriend/ex-boyfriend, making it through all of the chaos for one last kiss before the end of the world. Ariana Grande is very public about her music and the meaning behind her songs which is why she is loved by many.
