Yours Truly

Yours Truly is the debut studio album by American singer Ariana Grande. It was released on September 3, 2013 by Republic Records.

The debut album from Ariana Grande, 2013's Yours Truly, is a surprisingly sophisticated and unique showcase for the Nickelodeon sitcom star's soulful R&B vocals. As the character Cat Valentine on several Nickelodeon television shows including iCarly, Victorious, and Sam & Cat, Grande developed a huge fan following and the expectations were high for her debut album. Three years in the making and held up by numerous delays, Yours Truly lives up to those expectations. Produced by Kenneth "Babyface" Edmonds, Yours Truly is an impeccably engineered affair. In fact, one would be hard-pressed to find a better platform for Grande's voice. A resonant singer gifted with a lithe affinity for both high-energy melisma and gentle balladry, Grande often brings to mind the intonations of Mariah Carey. Of course, with Edmonds at the helm, along with a bevy of commercially minded songwriters, the Carey comparisons are unavoidable and most likely intentional. Thankfully, Grande has the chops to pull it off, and Yours Truly makes the most of her talent. To these ends, tracks like the opening "Honeymoon Avenue", with its sophisticated orchestral intro, and the bright and funky "You'll Never Know" sound like lost early-'90s R&B hits. Though Grande has the talent to carry the album on her own steam, several tracks team her with guest performers, including the single "The Way", which features rapper Mac Miller; "Right There" with Big Sean; and "Popular Song", featuring Mika. Ultimately, cuts like "Baby I" and the jazz-inflected showstopper "Almost Is Never Enough", featuring The Wanted's Nathan Sykes, are bravura pop recordings that bring to mind the best of the '90s and of now.

Lyrics
[Intro: Leon Thomas III] It's The Rascals!

[Verse 1] I looked in my rear view mirror And it seemed to make a lot more sense Than what I see ahead of us, ahead of us I'm ready to make that turn Before we both crash and burn 'Cause that can be the death of us, the death of us

[Pre-Chorus] Baby, you know how to drive in rain And you decided not to make a change Stuck in the same old lane Going the wrong way home

[Chorus] I feel like my heart is stuck in bumper-to-bumper traffic I'm under pressure 'cause I can't have you the way that I want Let's just go back to the way it was When we were on Honeymoon Avenue Honeymoon Avenue, baby Coasting like crazy Can we get back to the way it was?

[Verse 2] Hey, what happened to the butterflies? Guess they encountered that stop sign And my heart is at a yellow light, a yellow light Hey, right when I think that we’ve found it Well, that’s when we start turning around You're saying, "Baby, don't worry." But we're still going the wrong way

[Pre-Chorus] Baby, you know how to drive in rain And you decided not to make a change Stuck in the same old lane Going the wrong way home

[Chorus] I feel like my heart is stuck in bumper-to-bumper traffic I'm under pressure 'cause I can't have you the way that I want Let's just go back to the way it was When we were on Honeymoon Avenue Honeymoon Avenue, baby Coasting like crazy Can we get back to the way it was?

[Bridge] They say only fools fall in love Well, they must've been talking about us Sometimes I feel like I've been here before I could be wrong, but I know I'm right We're gonna be lost if we continue to fight Honey, I know that we can find our way home

[Chorus] I feel like my heart is stuck in bumper-to-bumper traffic I'm under pressure 'cause I can't have you the way that I want Let's just go back to the way it was When we were on Honeymoon Avenue Honeymoon Avenue, my baby Coasting like crazy Can we get back to the way it was? When we were on Honeymoon Avenue Honeymoon Avenue, baby Coasting like crazy Can we get back to the way it was?

[Breakdown] Baby, you know how to drive in rain And you decided not to make a change Stuck in the same old lane Going the wrong way home

[Outro] I feel like my heart is stuck in... traffic I'm under... pressure, pressure Let's just go back to the way it was When we were on... (Honeymoon Avenue, Honeymoon Avenue, Honeymoon Avenue, Honeymoon Avenue) Let's just go back, back, back

[Verse 1] I told you once, "Get out my life I don't need ya, I'll be alright" But some things are better left unsaid To tell the truth, it hit me hard My broken heart is all I have now But some things are better left unsaid

[Pre-Chorus] And I swore that I would never say "I miss you more every day" But some things are better left unsaid Are better left unsaid, said, said

[Chorus] Oh, I'm gonna say things like "shut up and kiss me" Oh, tonight I'm gonna lose some things Don't play me, just kiss me If you wanna party, put your hands up Put your hands up, put your hands up Don't play me, just kiss me Oh, tonight I’ll say things Don't play me, just kiss me, babe

[Verse 2] I could tell a lie Blame tonight Too many drinks So many reasons that some things are better left unsaid

[Pre-Chorus] And I swore that I would never say "I miss you more every day" But some things are better left unsaid Are better left unsaid, said, said

[Chorus] Oh, I'm gonna say things like "shut up and kiss me" Oh, tonight I'm gonna lose some things Don't play me, just kiss me If you wanna party, put your hands up Put your hands up, put your hands up Don't play me, just kiss me Oh, tonight I’ll say things Don't play me, just kiss me, babe If you wanna party, put your hands up Put your hands up, put your hands up Don't play me, just kiss me Oh, tonight I’ll say things Don't play me, just kiss me, babe

[Bridge] If you wanna party, put your hands up Put your hands up, put your hands up If you wanna party, put your hands up Put your hands up, put your hands up

[Outro] I could tell a lie Blame tonight Too many drinks So many reasons that some things are better left unsaid
