Ariana Grande Drops Full Version of 'Almost Is Never Enough' (feat. Nathan Sykes): Listen
What a pretty ballad. Listen now to the Ariana Grande and The Wanted's Nathan Sykes' duet "Almost Is Never Enough", featured on both the soundtrack of "The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones", and Ariana's debut album "Yours Truly". If you watched their live performance of the ballad on tour last week, you will notice that a couple of verses are missing. Why?. Because The Mortal Instruments' soundtrack version is the 'radio edit', whereas the version found on "Yours Truly" - which is over 5 minutes long - is the 'complete' one. But honestly, I am here only for a 3 minute and some song, not a 5 minute one. Plus, if "Almost Is Never Enough" ever becomes an official single the shorter version will be the one you listen to everywhere. For now, let your ears enjoy "Almost Is Never Enough" in all its high quality studio glory above.
Co-written and produced by Harmoney Samuels, "Almost Is Never Enough" is a tender ballad whose lyrics speak of finding love but it slipping away from your hands. Ariana and Nathan take turns for the verses, with Ari singing alone the first chorus, and the twosome joining their voices for the last section.
