On repeat. Ariana has made several points. God is a woman goodnight.

Damn. Just damn.
Best of the 3 we've heard so far and completely rivals some of the best tracks in her discography. Brilliantly produced, amazing vocal layering (that Ariana church choir chorus, though), an earworm of a hook we've come to expect from Max Martin, sultry adlibs, clever lyrics, this song has it all.
Also, this track is like the perfect mixture of early 2000s Max Martin and modern urban influences. It evokes feelings of nostalgia, but sounds so fresh at the same time. Like I said, brilliantly produced.
The stills from the video look great too, so a potentially epic video to match will do wonders.
I expect this to smash hard.

This era is looking more and more like her Teenage Dream/1989 era. Slay much.

The sultry opening into the urban pop banger that ensues I FUCKING LIIIIVE FOR IT
She's 3 out of 3 for me this era, though this is definitely the right step as the next single
Hyped for the video

It took me a few listens to LOVE this but I do. Congrats Ari, I hope this is another smash! What a day to drop it with NTLTC going #1 today!

It's a good song. Definitely the best of the three so far.
Not quite going crazy over it like others here though.

I really like this. It's not the greatest song from her, but it's still a very good song.

It’s a decent song and probably her best since her last lead single.

No Tears Left To Cry has been found dead. The Light is Coming was pushed down the stairs. Both are sharing a grave and God is a Woman is sitting on it.

I love the visuals in this. It's definitely not my favorite video she's released cause it's a little bit over the place but I love the cinematography.

What is the production budget for these videos?! Dave Meyers did an excellent job.

Incredible visuals. The groundhog part was... a choice. But this is gonna be big for sure.

Art met pop today in both audio and visual forms. Ari is the new queen of pop confirmed now that Madonna let her use her speech for the video.

Who would've thought Ariana would be the one to deliver the Pussy Power Anthem of 2018?

I loved her shattering the glass ceiling. What are the words people are throwing at her from the book?

I loved her shattering the glass ceiling. What are the words people are throwing at her from the book? all the words were derogatory terms used primarily towards women such as “slut”, “hoe”, and “bitch”.

I don't like this quite as much as NTLTC, but it's good. Restores my faith in this album after that "The Light Is Croaking" abomination.
