Ariana Grande's popped a new old song onto the internet

  • May 15, 2014
  • Brad O'Mance

ArianaAriana Grande's popped the full version of a pre­vi­ously unre­leased song called 'Boyfriend Material' onto the world wide web.

The song — which Grande 'penned' when she was just 17 — was meant to be on her debut album but didn't make it for some reason.

As well as sharing a link to the YouTube video con­tain­ing the song, Grande also had this to say about it via Girls Aloud's favourite public forum, TwitLonger:

a little surprise for my loves as a thank you for all of your constant love, support and ded­ic­a­tion. i know how much y'all love this song and how dis­ap­poin­ted you were when it didn't make it on to my first album so i knew i had to get it to you somehow someday. this song means a lot to me and holds such a special place in my heart as it was one of the first songs i did when i started working on 'yours truly' when i was like 17 ….. don't worry… you'll get more of these oldies too as time goes on! I'm working on it for you. love you all so much. you are everything. love you.

That's nice isn't it.

So is the song actually.
