On Friday, Ariana Grande released her much anticipated 4th studio album, Sweetener.

And while fans have, understandably, been gushing about the God is a Woman singer’s music, there is one track in particular that has captured the hearts of many.

15 months ago, on May 22nd, 2017, a horrific incident occurred at Ariana’s concert in Manchester when a suicide bomber detonated an explosive device which killed 22 people and injured dozens more.

Following the attack, she helped to organize the One Love Manchester benefit concert at the same venue, where she was joined on stage by Justin Bieber, Chris Martin, Katy Perry, Miley Cyrus, and Liam Gallagher, and managed to raise more than $13 million to aid those affected.

The 25-year-old has now paid tribute to the victims through a song on her album, entitled Get Well Soon.

The song is the final track on the record and includes 40 seconds of silence which brings the running time to 5 minutes and 22 seconds — signifying the date of the terror attack.
