About Popular Song

"Popular Song" explores the theme of popularity and staying true to oneself. The lyrics depict a narrative of two individuals, one who was previously popular and one who was not. In the first verse, Ariana Grande sings about how the person who used to be popular is now working at a movie theater selling popcorn, while she herself is confidently putting her story into a popular song. This suggests that the perception of popularity can be fleeting and that success is not necessarily tied to popularity. .
