#12 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.

 

#12 in Poptastic Confessions Top 101 Songs of 2023 is: “If U Go” by Belinda Carlisle. Click on the name of the song to see what we first wrote about it.



Written by: Diane Warren

Produced by: Mathia-Mathithiahu Gavriel and Peter Stengaard

 

Why: “If U Go” is an amazing pop rock song. It is so good that we almost forget about the rock part. It has a HUGE chorus that is awesome. The "Go Go" parts also seem like a nod to Belinda's group The Go-Go's. It really is just a fun song, even though the lyrics are asking your loved one not leave you. We think the relationship is just fine, and that this is just a love song in disguise. Wink wink. Nudge nudge.

 

Watch: Sadly, there is no official music video, but there is an official lyric video. See it on our 2023 Poptastic Confessions Playlist on YouTube.
