#11 of 2023

Dear Poptastic Readers,

 

If you are just joining us, we have been counting down our Top 101 Songs of 2023 with a new song every day. Tomorrow, we feature the next song in the countdown. See the rest of the countdown at the bottom of this post.

 

#11 in Poptastic Confessions Top 101 Songs of 2023 is: “Sexodus” by Army Of Lovers. Click on the name of the song to see what we originally wrote about it.


 

Written by: Alexander Bard, Dominika Pecynski, Jean-Pierre Barda, and Anders Wollbeck

Produced by: Anders Wollbeck

 

Why: “Sexodus” is an epic song that is about a sexual migration? Unsure what the true meaning is here, but it doesn't matter because this song is FUN! The lyrics are so tongue-in-cheek as many Army Of Lovers songs are. Dominika takes the lead with the verses, and Jean-Pierre has the bridge in French. Alexander says "Tower of Babel" several times, which is the myth of how different languages were formed. It's like a history lesson where you don't learn anything. We love it. Angels, Demons, Idols ... this is camp!


Live performance: Sadly, Army Of Lovers didn't make any music videos for their singles this year. But thankfully, they lip synced it on a Swedish TV Show. The out-of-sync dance moves are part of their charm. See it on our 2023 Poptastic Confessions Playlist on YouTube.


 

Chart history: Army Of Lovers had 7 songs in our Top 101 this year, and 3 of those songs were in our Top 21, and this is their highest placement. Had the songs been around longer than October, they might have been higher on the list, but they still made quite the showing this year. Check out their history on our countdowns over the years ...

"Signed On My Tattoo" featuring Gravitonas was #18 in 2013
