Summer Dreaming and Superhuman by Pure Shores

Dear Poptastic Readers,

We were reading Scandipop as we do and got super excited that there was a new song from Pure Shores called "Superhuman." But then we saw that they had a song out in May with the Bingo Players called "Summer Dreaming" and we missed it! D'oh! Better late than never as we always say.

We will start with "Summer Dreaming", which is a collaboration with Bingo Players. This glorious, uplifting dance pop song is an instant classic! We absolutely LOVE it! The lyrics are about rekindling a lost love. We've added the official lyric video to our 2024 Poptastic Confessions YouTube Playlist ...

And now for the latest release ...

"Superhuman" is a bit more reserve. It is about being totally in love with someone and putting them up on a pedestal. The chorus even talks about wanting to meet their mother to thank them. It will have you singing along in no time. We've also added it to our 2024 Poptastic Confessions YouTube Playlist ...

"Summer Dreaming" was written by Johan Gustafsson, Frederik Hoogstraten, Ji Nilsson, and Marlene Strand. It was produced by Bingo Players.

"Superhuman" was written and produced by Ji Nilsson, Marlene Strand, and Oliver Lundström.

Both songs are available on digital outlets everywhere. Buy your copies today! Listen to them on our 2024 Poptastic Confessions Playlist on Spotify ...

Back on my love,
—Davearama

I Wanna Be Loved (Just A Little Better) by Alison Goldfrapp

Dear Popastic Readers,

Alison Goldfrapp is back with a new song called "I Wanna Be Loved (Just A Little Better)." You might remember that we featured her song "So Hard So Hot" last year. The new song is co-produced by Richard X, who is known for turning out great dance pop tracks.

"I Wanna Be Loved (Just A Little Better)" is a fun, energetic electro dance pop song. Before it even got the first chorus, we knew we loved it. The chorus is quite good, too. We just wanted to dance around the room when we heard it. We've added the official video visualizer to our 2024 Poptastic Confessions YouTube Playlist ...

Dear Matthew by TIN

Dear Poptastic Readers,

Queer artist TIN is back with a new song called "Dear Matthew." You might remember that we have featured his previous singles: "Serotonin", "Sex, Cologne & Cigarettes", "Stung", and "Firm."

"Dear Matthew" is a slow ballad about being in love with someone who doesn't notice you. The lyrical content is very sad, but we can all relate. It's that feeling of not being good enough for someone and not feeling comfortable in your own skin. We've added the official video to our 2024 Poptastic Confessions YouTube Playlist.

"Dear Matthew" was written by TIN Nguyen and Joseph Copplestone. It was produced by Lostchild. It is available on digital outlets everywhere. Buy your copy today! Listen to it on our 2024 Poptastic Confessions Playlist on Spotify ...

Sad songs,

—Albert Green

One Day by Betty Boo

Dear Poptastic Readers,

Betty Boo has just released the second single from her forthcoming album Rip Up The Rulebook. The new single is called "One Day." You might remember that we featured her previous single "It Was Beautiful" featuring Hex in June.

"One Day" is a happy sing-a-long song, especially the chorus, which is sung, not rapped. The verses have Betty's signature rap style. The lyrics are about being away from someone for a long time and reconnect again. It is nice to have Betty back on a regular basis. We've added the official audio to our 2024 Poptastic Confessions YouTube Playlist ...

"One Day" and "It Was Beautiful" are from Betty's forthcoming album Rip Up The Rulebook due August 30. We are hoping for at least one more single before the album drops. We've heard good things about "Barbarella." The track listing is ...

1. Barbarella 3:29

2. Am I Dreaming? 3:20

3. It Was Beautiful (feat. HEX) 3:19

4. Spotlight 3:01

5. Rip Up The Rulebook (feat. Grandmaster Caz) 4:08

6. One Day 3:34

7. Cupcake 1:07

8. Bring On The Summer 3:21

9. Good Night Out 3:14

10. Heatwave 3:30

11. Hypnotic 2:56

12. Days Like These 3:41

"One Day" was written and produced by Andy Wright, Betty Boo, and Gavin Goldberg. It is available on digital outlets everywhere. Buy your copy today! Listen to it on our 2024 Poptastic Confessions Playlist on Spotify ...

Thing goin' on,

Before You Go by Temmpo x RMGN

Dear Poptastic Readers,

Someone emailed us about this dance remake of the acoustic "Before You Go" originally sung by Lewis Capaldi. The artists are Temmpo and RMGN, both who we have never heard of before. Temmpo is the working name of Australian producer Tonino Speciale. We can't find out any information about RMGN.

We weren't entirely convinced about the helium-sounding vocals in the beginning of the song. But once we got past that, we really enjoyed the dance vibe. When the singer's vocals are sped up, it reminds us of RABBII's singer Johanna. We can't help but really enjoy this remake a lot more than the original. We've added the official audio to our 2024 Poptastic Confessions YouTube Playlist ...

"Before You Go" was written by Ben Kohn, Lewis Capaldi, Peter Kelleher, Phil Plested, and Tom Barnes. It was produced by Tonino Speciale. It is available on digital outlets everywhere. Buy your copy today! Listen to it on our 2024 Poptastic Confessions Playlist on Spotify ...

Ciao bella,

Midnight Ride by Orville Peck & Kylie Minogue & Diplo

Dear Poptastic Readers,

Last month, Kylie Minogue teamed up with Canadian country singer Orville Peck and American DJ/producer Diplo on a track called "Midnight Ride." We keep forgetting to review it. However, today is your lucky day!

"Midnight Ride" is a dance pop song with country elements. Orville starts off the first verse and chorus with his deep vocals. Kylie sings the second verse with her breathy vocals. Kylie and Orville both sing the second chorus together. We've added the official lyric video to our 2024 Poptastic Confessions YouTube Playlist ...

"Midnight Ride" was written by Christopher Stracey, Kylie Minogue, Marta Cikojevic, and Orville Peck. It was produced by Christopher Stracey, Diplo, Orville Peck, and Picard Brothers. It is available on digital outlets everywhere. Buy your copy today! Listen to it on our 2024 Poptastic Confessions Playlist on Spotify ...

Touch Heaven by Infernal

Dear Poptastic Readers,

Danish duo Infernal had a new song out in May called "Touch Heaven" and we missed it! D'oh! We are still loving their single "Saw It All Coming", which we featured back in March.

"Touch Heaven" starts off with Lina's big vocals and the music is a bit reserve. However, it doesn't stay like that for long as it transforms into an electropop banger after the first chorus. What a chorus it is, too. This feel dark and uplifting at the same time. It has lots of layers. We love it. We've added the official audio to our 2024 Popastic Confessions YouTube Playlist ...

"Touch Heaven" was written and produced by Adam Powers, Christian Boye, Christian Sigvardt, Lars Halvor McGuire-Jensen, Lina Rafn, Mikel Skovgaard, Paw Lagermann, and Søren Pagh. It was produced by Paw Lagermann, Lina Rafn, Boyle & Sigvardt. It is available on digital outlets everywhere. Buy your copy today!

Love is all,

A New Bohemia by Pet Shop Boys

Dear Poptastic Readers,

The Pet Shop Boys latest single is "A New Bohemia." It was released in the beginning of June, and we've been meaning to get around to it. This the third single from their album Nonetheless. You might remember that we featured the singles "Loneliness" in January and "Dancing Star" in April.

"A New Bohemia" is a slow ballad about nostalgia and looking forward to the future. It is also about gay culture and trying to find the hip place to be, but it also reflects on being older. We've added the music video to our 2024 Poptastic Confessions YouTube Playlist.

"A New Bohemia" was written by Chris Lowe and Neil Tennant (Pet Shop Boys). It was produced by James Ford. It is available on digital outlets everywhere. Buy your copy today! Listen to it on our 2024 Poptastic Confessions Playlist on Spotify ...

Monkey business,

My Oh My by Kylie Minogue featuring Bebe Rexha & Tove Lo

Dear Poptastic Readers,

Kylie Minogue has just released a new song called "My Oh My" with Bebe Rexha & Tove Lo. You might remember that Kylie and Tove have worked together before on Tove's 2019 song "Really Don't Like You."

"My Oh My" has Kylie taking the first verse, Bebe the second verse, and Tove on the last verse. The chorus has lots of "La la la la" parts. They all say their name and their astrological sign in their verses, and it reminds of "Song For A Future Generation" by The B-52s. We've added the official audio to our 2024 Poptastic Confessions YouTube Playlist.

"My Oh My" was written by Ina Wroldsen, Steve Mac, and Tove Lo. It was produced by Steve Mac. It is available on digital outlets everywhere. Buy your copy today! Listen to it on our 2024 Poptastic Confessions Playlist on Spotify ...

Things we do for love,

Heat by Tove Lo & SG Lewis

Dear Poptastic Readers,

Tove Lo and SG Lewis have collaborated on a new 4-track EP called Heat, which they have made music videos for all 4 songs. Let's go track by track.

1. "Heat" is the title track and first song released. It is a glorious dance pop song that will have you moving in no time. The beats are dope and the vocal melody is quite catchy. The music video is quite HOT and we've added it to our 2024 Poptastic Confessions YouTube Playlist! It was written by SG Lewis, Tove Lo, and Orlando Higginbottom. It was produced by SG Lewis and Orlando Higginbottom.

2. "Let Me Go OH OH" has a very similar beat to Kylie's "Can't You Out Of My Head." This dance song is a bit more sexy and reserve. It was written by SG Lewis, Tove Lo, and Orlando Higginbottom. It was produced by SG Lewis. The music video looks like it was outtakes of the video for "Heat." We weren't able to add it to our YouTube playlist, but you can watch it here ...

3. "Busy Girl" takes a bit of a darker turn, but the beats are fierce. The lyrics are filled with attitude. Work it! It was written by SG Lewis, Tove Lo, and Orlando Higginbottom. It was produced by SG Lewis and Orlando Higginbottom. The music video is quite HOT and we've added it to our 2024 Poptastic Confessions YouTube Playlist!

The music video looks like it was outtakes of the video for "Busy Girl." we've added it to our 2024 Poptastic Confessions YouTube Playlist ...

All 4 tracks are fun dance party pop songs, but "Heat" is the clear frontrunner here. The EP is available on digital outlets everywhere. Buy your copy today! Listen to it on our 2024 Poptastic Confessions Playlist on Spotify ...

Missing you,

Celebration by Dolly Style

Dear Poptastic Readers,

Sweden's sugary sweet girl group Dolly Style have a new song out called "Celebration." This is the fourth single that we have featured this year. Check out "Mi Amor", "Girls, Girls, Girls", and "Mermaid." At the bottom of this post, read the history of the group ...

"Celebration" is fun pop song with a glorious rhythm section. The chorus is super catchy, like a lot of classic Dolly Style songs. So far, this has been a very good year for Dolly Style. This is a great song and the 4 of them sound really good. We hope there is a music video, but until then, we've added the official audio to our 2024 Poptastic Confessions YouTube Playlist ...

"Celebration" was written by Andreas Stone Johansson, Audio Agnar Gulbrandsen, and Laurell Barker. It was produced by Andreas Stone Johansson and Audio Agnar Gulbrandsen.
