Sympathy is a knife featuring ariana grande performed by Charli XCX ft. Ariana Grande taken from the remix album of the sixth studio album "Brat and it's completely different but also still brat" Ra mắt cùng với "Brat and it's completely different but also still brat" vào ngày 11 tháng 10 năm 2024, "Sympathy is a knife featuring ariana grande" là track nhạc thứ hai nằm trong album. Đây là phiên bản phối lại cho ca khúc cùng tên nằm trong album phòng thu thứ sáu "Brat" của cô nàng Charli XCX, với sự góp giọng của Ariana Grande . Với giai điệu teen pop kết hợp alternative pop đầy độc đáo, "Sympathy is a knife featuring ariana grande" đã làm sáng tỏ những mặt tối của sự nổi tiếng cùng gánh nặng đến từ những kì vọng của xã hội. Bài hát đã khắc họa nên tính hai mặt của thành công: Đạt đến đỉnh cao sẽ mang lại thành tựu và sự công nhận; nhưng đồng thời nó cũng gây ra sự ghen tị và phản bội, đến cả từ giới truyền thông và thậm chí cả những người bạn cũ của mình.
