A new chapter dawns in the radiant universe of Eternal Sunshine. Today, Oscar-nominated, GRAMMY® Award-winning global icon Ariana Grande unveils Eternal Sunshine Deluxe: Brighter Days Ahead, set to release on March 28 via Republic Records.
A momentous celebration of artistry and evolution, this deluxe edition arrives precisely one year after Eternal Sunshine—the critically acclaimed, GRAMMY®-nominated masterpiece that debuted at #1 on the Billboard 200, marking Grande’s sixth chart-topping album. Certified RIAA Platinum, the record produced era-defining hits, including the two-time Platinum anthem “we can’t be friends (wait for your love)”, alongside “yes, and?” and “the boy is mine”, both of which achieved Platinum status. With two Billboard Hot 100 #1 singles, Eternal Sunshine remains unparalleled—standing as the only album of 2024 to generate multiple Hot 100 chart-toppers.
The original release was an instant cultural phenomenon, captivating both audiences and critics alike. The New York Times lauded it as a “Critic’s Pick,” while Variety praised Grande’s dual mastery as a vocalist and producer, heralding her intricate vocal arrangements as “songs on their own.” Rolling Stone awarded the album a rare five-star rating, declaring it one of the best albums of the year, while the Associated Press simply called it a “Triumph.”
Now, as Eternal Sunshine enters its next luminous phase, Brighter Days Ahead promises an expansion of the sonic and emotional depth that has defined Grande’s unparalleled career.
Mark your calendars for March 28—an era continues.
