Dear Poptastic Readers,
Pop legends Bananarama (Sara Dallin and Keren Woodward) are back and celebrating their 40th anniversary year. They have a new album coming in July called Masquerade. Today, they have released a teaser track called "Favourite." This is the duo's first new music since their 2019 album In Stereo, which featured the singles "Stuff Like That" (#1 in our Top 100 Songs of 2019), "Looking For Someone" (#5 in our Top 100 Songs of 2019), and the teaser track "Dance Music" (#28 in our Top 100 Songs of 2019).
"Favourite" is a remake originally done by Alice D in 2018. Alice is Sara's daughter. Bananarama have given their own spin on the song taking it to a dark electro place. Sara and Keren split the verses into solo bits before singing the bridge and chorus together. As a special bonus, Alice sings ad libs on the last 2 choruses making this a eurphoric number very special. Check out the lyric video ...
