Who needs bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens when you have breakfast at Tiffany's and bottles of bubbles?

Following her breakup anthem "thank u, next," Ariana Grande has released her newest single, titled "7 rings." The track, a celebration of opulence and extravagance as self-care, lifts heavily from The Sound of Music's "My Favorite Things." Check out the 2019 take on the Rodgers and Hammerstein tune in the music video above.

The song, named for the engagement-turned-friendship rings she bought with her friends following her breakup with Pete Davidson, will be featured on the pop superstar's upcoming fifth studio album, thank u, next.

Grande has never been shy about embracing her affinity for musical theatre, having appeared on Broadway in 13 before her breakout pop career. She's gone on to star in NBC's Hairspray Live!, collaborate further with 13 composer Jason Robert Brown, help celebrate Wicked's 15th anniversary, and sing showtunes with Jimmy Kimmel. She's even channeled Maria von Trapp before, in a 2016 Saturday Night Live sketch.
