This!! I really missed the ballads around the NL period. She only had 2 and they weren't amazing to me. She definitely made up for it with all the great ones on RnRC and now these new ones. I don't have a problem with her releasing a lot of ballads. Her ballads are the type of songs I will never get tired of and probably listen to for the rest of my life, they never sound dated like some pop songs could.

I don't think of it as a ballad either because of the chorus. The acoustic orchestra version will definitely turn it into one though lol. I'm so excited for that!
