\n\tAriana Grande<\/a> just proved that she\u2019ll be alright even when technical difficulties throw off her Eternal Sunshine Tour show, with the star spontaneously dusting off a decade-old hit and singing it a cappella while stalling for time on stage during her Sunday (July 19) show in Brooklyn, N.Y.<\/p>\n

\n\tAt Grande\u2019s fifth and final performance at Barclays Center on her ongoing trek, an unexpected pause in the program took place midway through the concert, shortly after she\u2019d sung Eternal Sunshine: Brighter Days Ahead tracks \u201cTwilight Zone\u201d and \u201cPast Life.\u201d After explaining to the crowd that her crew needed time to address an issue with the mechanics of her production, the Grammy winner asked, \u201cShould we sing a song that\u2019s not in the show together?\u201d <\/p>\n

\n\tGrande then looked to her fans to help her pick out a song, seemingly locking eyes with someone who requested \u201cBe Alright\u201d from her 2016 album, Dangerous Woman. \u201cOoh! OK,\u201d she said excitedly before diving into the track\u2019s opening lyrics.<\/p>\n

\n\tDuring the chorus, she turned the mic over to the audience. \u201cYay! That was fun,\u201d she said, cutting off the song after a few bars. \u201cSee? I love things like this, because it means we get to spend more time together. But they\u2019ve fixed it now, so now we\u2019ll go back to the show. Love you.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tFittingly, the next song on the setlist<\/a> just so happened to be Dangerous Woman\u2018s title track. Grande went through with the rest of the show without a hitch, wrapping up her stay at the NYC arena.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cnew york, you have my heart always \u2026 brooklyn, i am emotional !\u201d she wrote on Instagram<\/a> shortly afterward, sharing photos from the performances. \u201cthank you for five beautiful shows. i love you, i love new york, i love this show, i love our eternal sunshine tour family, and again, you, you, you\u2026 with all my heart always.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tThe moment wasn\u2019t the first time Grande experienced a snafu over the course of her time at Barclays. At night one on July 13, the audio from her loop machine abruptly cut off<\/a> while she was singing \u201cEternal Sunshine,\u201d leading the crowd to loudly sing along with her as backup. During Sunday\u2019s show, the lights and screens on the right half of her stage flickered on and off a couple of times.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cBe Alright\u201d marked an unexpected but welcome addition to Grande\u2019s show, which also featured Billboard Hot 100<\/a> No. 1s such as \u201cThank U, Next\u201d \u2014 during which she tweaked a lyric<\/a> to seemingly confirm she\u2019s reunited with ex-boyfriend Ricky Alvarez \u2014 \u201c7 Rings,\u201d \u201cPositions\u201d and \u201cWe Can\u2019t Be Friends (Wait For Your Love).\u201d Toward the end, she performed another No. 1, \u201cHate That I Made You Love Me,\u201d the lead single from her upcoming album Petal, which drops July 31.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe Wicked actress is now at the halfway point of her Eternal Sunshine trek, which kicked off June 6 in Oakland, Calif. She\u2019s set to play a series of shows in Boston, Montreal and Chicago before closing out with 10 nights at the O2 Arena in London.<\/p>\n
