Sabrina Carpenter awakened this morning with the need to feed the girls. Without introduction, the pop princess prefaced the announcement that “Such a Funny Way,” an ultra-glittery little bonus track, could now be downloaded digitally. True to the Sabrina tradition, she loosened fans up with the tweet equivalent to the love letter written longhand:
“a little surprise for you. ‘Such a Funny Way’ is a song i am so proud of. the sentiment is one i always thought could really be the end of Man’s Best Friend in another universe! i didn’t want you to wait too long to have it and get to know it. it’s available for digital download now 🐾🖤.”
It is only Sabrina who would nonchalantly dish out an additional song as an after-midnight snack.
A Diva Moment by One Grammy Award Winner
Sabrina is no mere ascendant pop girl. She’s just won a GRAMMY for Short n’ Sweet, an album packed with platinum singles and the sort of bite-sized hits that defined 2024. Her most recent era, Man’s Best Friend, has the girls already losing their minds with the lead single “Manchild,” but she’s topping it all off with an extra bonus song sprinkled on like confetti on the streets after the victory parade.
The Admission Price to Sabrina’s World
And here’s the kicker: the Man’s Best Friend D2C Bonus Track Digital Album hits the shelves at the price of just $7.99. Hold on, it’s not an immediate click-and-play. The magic is in the download ritual. Once you purchase through this site, you’ll get an email confirmation that will unlock the MP3 audio files, all nicely packed as though in a digital Cartier box. One each, dear person, and for the time being, only U.S. fans get to play. Global fans? Get over it.
Why It’s Giving Diva.
Releasing a “bonus track” as an independent event? That’s the type of cunty flex that only Sabrina was capable of. She’s literally saying: Here is a song that would’ve ended an entire universe, but I’m dropping it for you early simply because peasants are impatient. That’s pop star behavior. That’s icon behavior. And that’s why Sabrina Carpenter remains the supreme ruler in an industry filled with girls who still haven’t mastered the art of how to roll out a surprise drop without face-planting.
“Such a Funny Way” is not only an after-the-fact bonus track, but also a summons reminding everyone that Sabrina is always one unto herself. And the rest of us? We’re fortunate that she allows us to download the soundtrack.
