Eternal Sunshine is the nineteenth studio album by American singer-songwriter and producer Ariana Grande. It was released on March 8, 2024, by Republic Records. Grande, a big fan of Canadian actor Jim Carrey, referenced his movie Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (2004) with the album's title.[3]

It is her first album to be released since Positions (2020). The album features more of a pop, house and R&B sound compared to her other albums, which are more urban sounding.

The lead single, "Yes, And?", was released on January 12, 2024. It entered the Billboard Hot 100 at number one, becoming Grande's eighth US number-one hit. It is a house and dance-pop song, and the video references Paula Abdul's music video for "Cold Hearted" (1989).

The second single, "We Can't Be Friends (Wait for Your Love)" was released with the album on March 8, 2024. It is a synth-pop and electropop song, and the video references Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.[4][5] Like "Yes, And?", "We Can't Be Friends (Wait for Your Love)" also entered at the top of the Billboard Hot 100. It became Grande's ninth US number-one song. The song also marks a chart double, with Grande having the number-one album and song in the same week. It was her first since Thank U, Next and "7 Rings" in 2019.[6]
