Boring... Again she sounds like Katherine McPhee who IMO is a much more talented artist...

I don't know that I've seen enough depth to their work to speak to either as a complete "artist" (at least as far as their mainstream recordings go) - I know them as vocalists. And insofar as that is true, they're held prisoner to the songs they perform. Grande's songs are much, much better. Both are similar in that they have no diction in their upper registers, but I find Grande to be more dynamic. I also think she has a much richer tone.

I like both Ariana and Katharine to varying degrees, but Ariana undoubtedly has the stronger material.
This has burned on me, but it was one of my favorites when I first heard the album.

I love Kat, and while she doesn't have much personality her voice, I can't even make it through most of Ariana's singles because she has absolutely no personality to her voice.

The thirst continues. I'm really over people still whining about this girl. She can sing her ass off. THE END.

They didn't really have anything left after LMH - this is OK, pretty generic but then so are the other choices. Be May Baby is too Mariah Carey circa her last few albums, Break Your Heart Right Back is way dated... this sits in the same boat as Why Try for me. I enjoy both, but muh.
Best Mistake would have been my favourite choice for a follow up, but it's not for CHR.

I say forget this, scrap the era and come back with new music in the fall. The album already spawned four singles with "Bang Bang" included, and I just feel the album lost a lot of momentum over the holidays. "Love Me Harder" Was a huge radio hit but it's sales and streaming didn't reflect that.

She lost a lot of momentum when they released "Break Free," IMO. This is a wrong single choice too. I feel like someone at her label is trying to make her into this EDM queen, and that's just not a wise choice for her. It's probably the reason why "My Everything" is so disjointed as well. There's no reason why the album shouldn't have scanned a million copies yet.

Is this getting any play yet? Didn't her other singles start getting play immediately when it was announced as the next single?

I had to google this. What does spinal muscular atrophy have to do with anything?

First TV Performance of "One Last Time" on Super Bowl Edition of "The Tonight Show".Ariana Grande‘s new single is her hot song “One Last Time” and she just announced her first live television performance of the track! “very excited to be performing my new single one last time for the first time tomorrow on fallon after the #superbowl!!!!! i luv @jimmyfallon,” the 21-year-old singer tweeted on Saturday night (January 31). This is the fourth single to be released from Ariana‘s sophomore album My Everything. Her previous singles “Problem,” “Break Free,” and “Love Me Harder” have all become top ten hits on the Billboard chart and we predict this one to do the same! www.justjared.com/2015/02/01/ariana-grande-one-last-time-full-song-lyrics-listen-now/

Yeah, I'm a fan but that was not a very good performance. So stiff, and the vocals were below average for her.

Ariana gets way too much hate here. Her vocal game went hard on Jimmy Fallon last night.
Ariana deserves all the success she is getting. I'm sorry she has been more successful than 95% of female artists this year. 4 top 10 hits? mmmmmmkay!

The vocals were great last night on Fallon! She hit all of the notes, breath and diction could use some work but it wasn't even an issue for me tbh! She sounds great!!! :)

Her breathing is a problem lately, actually. Started noticing that during her performances of 'Break Free'-- she gets winded.
I've kind of gotten used to (and even like) the warbling.

I agree with pretty much everyone else on here. This was a great album but I'm confused as to why this is the next single. The song is alright, but there are other songs on here that are so much better! It's not exactly generic, but definitely not what I would have predicted being a single out of all the other great tracks on here.

Good performance. Is that ponytail hair thing glued to her head though?

Katherine McPhee's voice is one of the blandest I have ever heard. Excuse me...what?

I liked that performance more than some of seen of her when she's trying to do to much on stage or when there's a lot going on around her. It could be because this is my second favorite song off the cd after "Problem"

This is alright. Kinda uneventful. I don't see this doing as well as the other three singles. Guessing it barely scrapes the Top 10 (maybe #9).
