Bubble Bass by Rebecca & Fiona

Dear Poptastic Readers,

Last year, Rebecca & Fiona captivated us with their singles "All Or Nothing", "Älskling", "Arena", and "Heartbeat." Then they released their album Mega Dance and we fell in love with the song "Bubble Bass." They recently released it a remix single.


"Bubble Bass" is an electro dance banger. It is so much fun: "Drop your attitude. No one likes a boring dude." About halfway through the house keys come in and it just elevates it. We've added the audio of the original version to our 2025 Poptastic Confessions YouTube Playlist.


As we said earlier, "Bubble Bass" was released a remix single. It contains 3 mixes: GRĒTA Remix, Suns Remix, and the SUPERGOOD Remix. We've added all of the remixes to our new 2025 Remix Confessions Spotify Playlist on Spotify ...


"Bubble Bass" was written by Fiona Fitzpatrick, Rebecca Scheja, and Tommie Danberg. It was produced by Carli Löf. It is available on digital outlets everywhere. Buy your copy today! Listen to it on our 2025 Poptastic Confessions Playlist on Spotify ...

Pom Pom by Dolly Style

Dear Poptastic Readers,

Sweden's sugary sweet girl group Dolly Style released a new single called "Pom Pom." The group have been riding high all year long on their hit "Yihaa", which was in Sweden's Melodifestivalen countdown to Eurovision. If you are unfamiliar with the group, check out our history of the group at the bottom of this post.


As you can guess, "Pom Pom" is a cheerleading song. The first verse has Molly and Holly introducing themselves, then Jolly and Polly on the second verse. The bridge is catchy, while the chorus is a cheerleader chant. The music video takes place in a high school with other cheerleaders. We've added it to our 2025 Poptastic Confessions YouTube Playlist ...


"Pom Pom" was written by Caroline Aronsson, Mikaela Samuelsson, and Christoffer Balazik, who produced the song. Sadly, it isn't available on digital outlets everywhere. But it is on streaming! Listen to it on our 2025 Poptastic Confessions Playlist on Spotify ...


Celebration,

—Davearama

Meri Jaan by Meira Omar

Dear Poptastic Readers,

Earlier this year, we absolutely loved "Hush Hush" by Miera Omar, who competed in Melodifestivalen, Sweden's countdown to Eurovision. Her new song is called "Meri Jaan" and it is just as fabulous.


"Meri Jaan" is an expression in Hindi that translates to "my love" or "my life." It is a term of endearment. The song is sung in English, and it is a love song. The dynamic music has lots of Indian elements. The music is upbeat, but not too fast. Miera sounds great here. We've added the audio to our 2025 Poptastic Confessions YouTube Playlist ...


"Meri Jaan" was written by Anderz Wrethov, Laurell Barker, and Jimmy Jansson, who produced the song. It is available on digital outlets everywhere. Buy your copy today! Listen to it on our 2025 Poptastic Confessions Playlist on Spotify ...

Hush,

Lovers And Strangers & All To You by A Flock Of Seagulls

Dear Poptastic Readers,

We were in the mood for A Flock Of Seagulls, so we went Spotify and saw that we missed 2 recent single releases from them! D'oh! Better late than never! "Lovers and Strangers" was released in mid-April. "All To You" was released at the end of May. Both songs are from the band's recent album Some Dreams. We already featured the first 2 singles "Some Dreams" and "Him." We have now subscribed to their YouTube channel so hopefully we won't miss any more future releases.


"Lovers and Strangers" is a tears-on-the-dancefloor song. The lyrics are "we used to be lovers now you walk on by." The music has the classic synth and guitar pop sound, while sounding very modern. This is a great example of an 80s band making modern music that doesn't sound stuck in the 80s, but it still sounds like them. We've added the official lyric video to our 2025 Poptastic Confessions YouTube Playlist ...


And now for their recent single ...


"All To You" is a steady pop love song with a beautiful melody. This is about being head-over-heels in love. The music is lush and this sounds great. Mike sure knows how to write cathcy pop songs, and his vocals are quite good, too. We've also added the music video to our 2025 Poptastic Confessions YouTube Playlist ...


Both songs were written by Mike Score. They were produced by Mike Score, Mikal Read, and Sare Havlicek. Buy your copies today! Listen to them on our 2025 Poptastic Confessions Playlist on Spotify ...

The more you live,

Our 14th Anniversary!

Dear Poptastic Readers,

Today is our 14th anniversary! Our first blog post was on June 11, 2011. For those of you who have been following us along the way, Thank You! If you are new, welcome! Please follow us on social media at the links below.


We often hear people say that they don't like current music. We say to them that there is a lot of great music out there, and we feature them in our music blog every week.

Poptastic Confessions highlights current music that gets overlooked by the masses, whether it be independent artists, veteran artists, dance artists, or artists from other countries. There is much more to pop music than what is mainstream. 

This year, we have already set a record with the number of new songs. We've had 89 blog posts. Both our Spotify and YouTube playlists have 105 songs. At this rate, we will feature over 200 songs by the end of the year.

Every December, we rate all of the songs that we feautured thoughout the year in our Top Songs of the Year. When we get to #21, we start featuring a song a day until we get to the #1 spot on New Year's Eve. Check out our top songs by year ...


20242023202220212020201920182017201620152014201320122011, and 2010


We usually do a list of 101 songs. Last year, we did our Top 141. Maybe this year, we will list our Top 201 songs. Stay tuned.



Again, we thank all of the readers over the past 14 years. Here's to many more!


Yihaa,
—The Poptastic Confessions Collective

There are so many interesting layers and elements here. We love it. We've added the official audio to our 2025 Poptastic Confessions YouTube Playlist ...
