A Hundred Years Of Winter by Steps

Dear Poptastic Readers,

Steps have released their 5th single of 2021 and it is from their latest album What The Future Holds Part 2. The new single is "A Hundred Years Of Winter."


"A Hundred Years Of Winter" is a mid tempo dreamy ballad. H starts off the fist verse followed by Clare. Lee takes the lead on the second verse followed by Lisa. Faye and H get the middle bit. The music video was filmed outside and looks like they forgot about Lee for the first half as you see him at 4 seconds in and then you won't see him for a full minute later. We notice these things. Check it out ...



"A Hundred Years Of Winter" was written by Darren Hayes and Walter Afanasieff. It was produced by Barry Stone and Julian Gingell. It is available on digital outlets everywhere. Buy your copy today! We've added it our 2021 Poptastic Confessions Playlist on Spotify.

Introducing Iaco

Dear Poptastic Readers,

We recently found about an artist called Iaco and we like their music, so we would like to introduce you their 3 recent songs of the many they've had out this year.


"Better Now" is the latest release and it starts off a bit slow with soulful vocals coming in with a snap. As it builds, it turns into a mid-tempo jam. Have a listen ...


"We Burned It" features vocals by Chloé Hétier, who gives an emotional performance. Have a listen ...



Another song Iaco has out this year is called "Chase." The verses are like a slow ballad with a piano and an acoustic guitar. But with the chorus comes the beat. Check it out ..


All of Iaco's music is on digital outlets everywhere. Check Iaco out! We've added these 3 songs to our 2021 Poptastic Confessions Playlist on SpotifyEnjoy!

Crow And A Baby by Parralox

Dear Poptastic Readers,

It is Friday, and that means there is a new Parralox song! Today's release is the track "Crow And A Baby." In case you missed the previous 5 Fridays, Parralox have remade the Human League's 1980 album Travelogue, and they are releasing one track every Friday spanning 17 weeks. This is Week 6. 


The lyrics to "Crow And A Baby" are quite dark and we are sure there is probably a deeper meaning, but we don't know what it is. The music is very cool and John gives a great vocal performance, as usual. The music video Parralox have put together is of a cartoon called Gandahar. Have a look ...

Kylie Minogue is back with another duet from her forthcoming special Disco: Guest List Edition album. The new song is called "Kiss Of Life" and it is a duet with Jessie Ware.


"Kiss Of Life" is a shimmering disco pop song as you could probably guess by the name of Kylie's album. This is a very smooth and sultry disco song. The music video shows has an interesting storyline that takes place in a restaurant. There is definitely a backstory of these 2 women here, and it seems they definitely have a past. It is fun to watch and definitely has a retro feel. Have a look ...

Not A Single Day Goes By by Jody Watley

Dear Poptastic Readers,

The week before last, the Queen of Cool Jody Watley released a brand new EP called Renderings—The Alex Di Ciò Remixes and it featured a 5-minute remix of her new single "Not A Single Day Goes By." On Friday, Jody released the radio edit! Yipee!


When we first heard the new song, we loved it immediately. One of our first thoughts was "we wish there was a radio edit." Not sure why, but we all tend to enjoy 3- to 4-minute songs more than another over 5-minutes. Anyhoo, the radio edit is here are we are very happy. The song is an uplifting anthem about missing someone who no longer around. Check out the radio edit.



"Not A Single Day Goes By" was written by Jody Watley. Produced by Jody Watley and Rodney Lee. Mixed by Alex Di Ciò. We've added the single edit to our 2021 Poptastic Confessions Playlist on SpotifyEnjoy!
