Confessions II by Madonna

Dear Poptastic Readers,

Today, Madonna released her first new album in 7 years and it is called Confessions II, which is a sequel of sorts to her 2005 album Confessions On A Dancefloor. We've already featured the first 3 singles: "I Feel So Free", "Bring Your Love" with Sabrina Carpenter, and "Love Sensation."

We've listened about 4 times today and we really hope that "Danceteria" is the next single as it is absolutely amazing. Other favourites are "Read My Lips", "One Step Away", and "My Sins Are My Savior" (featuring Stromae), which samples the Army Of Lovers song "My Army Of Lovers." The are some quite emotional songs like "Fragile", "The Test", and "L.E.S. Girl."

This will be on repeat all weekend. Have a listen here ...

Are you ready to jump,

There is an official lyric video that shows Aino and Caroline catching some ray by the beach. We've added it to our 2026 Poptastic Confessions YouTube Playlist ...


"Yellow Top" was written by Aino Jawo, Caroline Hjelt, Sebastian Furrer, Hanna Jäger, and Wilhelm Börjesson. It was produced by Sebastian Furrer. Mixed by Eric Dubowsky.

Dancing Without You by Disco Bambino, Nile Rodgers, & Sophie Ellis-Bextor

Dear Poptastic Readers,

There a new disco ditty called "Dancing Without You" by Disco Bambino, Nile Rodgers, and Sophie Ellis-Bextor! We'd never heard of Disco Bambino before, but he is an Italian disco producer named Giuseppe Savoni.


"Dancing Without You" is a lovely disco pop song. The disco music is lush and there are lots of interesting elements. Sophie sounds amazing as always and handles the melody with ease. There is something very ABBA-esque about the chorus, as it just sounds so sophisticated. There is a video visualizer where the 3 artists are hanging out and dancing. We've added it to our 2026 Poptastic Confessions YouTube Playlist ...


"Dancing Without You" was written by Nile Rodgers, Sophie Ellis-Bextor, Giuseppe Savoni, Patrizia Faduma Helander, Cassandra Ströberg, and Tim Powell. It is available on digital outlets everywhere. Buy your copy today! We've added it to our 2026 Poptastic Confessions Playlist on Spotify.

Babyline by La Roux

Dear Poptastic Readers,

La Roux is back with their second single this year and it is called "Babyline." This follows their single "Cabin Fever", which was released in May. Both songs are from the upcoming album Cabin Fever, which is due on November 6.


"Babyline" is a delightful, fun bop. The music sounds like a party at the beach. Singer Elly sounds great. The chorus does blend in with the verses, but the lush synth layers will make you want to play it again once it is over. There is also a fade at the end, which is rare these days. Watch the music video on our 2026 Poptastic Confessions YouTube Playlist ...


"Babyline" was written by Elly Jackson. It was produced by Elly Jackson, Martin Eden, and Spencer Nezey. I was engineered by Sean Oakley. Mastered by Brian Lucey. It is available for purchase on digital outlets everywhere. Buy your copy today. We've added it to our 2026 Poptastic Confessions Playlist on Spotify.


I'm not your toy,

Pretty Girls by Flora Summers

Dear Poptastic Readers,

Flora Summers released a new song on Friday. It is called "Pretty Girls." You might remember Flora from her song "Image" with Color Buzz (#3 in our Top 101 Songs of 2025), and "Sweet Summer Feels" (#8 in our 101 Top Songs of 2023).


"Pretty Girls" definitely has a retro feel, all the way back to late 50s/early 60s. It starts off with a sample talking about pretty girls. The lyrics here start off sounding a bit sad, but it quickly changes into a girl power anthem. We've added the official visualizer to our 2026 Poptastic Confessions YouTube Playlist ...


"Pretty Girls" was written by Ida Johansson and Signe Levin. It was produced by Flora Summers. It was mixed by Sebastian Winskog. It is available on digital outlets everywhere. Buy your copy today! We've added it to our 2026 Poptastic Confessions Playlist on Spotify.


Little while longer,
—Davearama

Love On Top Of Love + Play Together by LADSCLUB

Dear Poptastic Readers,

Earlier this year in February, we featured "Bred" by LADSCLUB x Bearly Disco. We just found out that LADSCLUB has a new album out called Play Together. The latest single is called "Love On Top Of Love." Their previous single was called "The Playpen." Let's have a listen ...


We'll start with the timely "Love On Top Of Love" just in time for PRIDE! The music is a bit dark electropop. The vocals are a bit deadpan, but part of the charm. The lyrics are about a third partner who didn't work out. We've added the lyric video to our 2026 Poptastic Confessions YouTube Playlist.


And now for the previous single ...


"The Playpen" was the previous single and the first single from the album. This is giving us early Human League vibes. Very electro with deep vocals. We've added the lyric video to our 2026 Poptastic Confessions YouTube Playlist ...


And now for the album ...


The new album is called Play Together. We've only listened once, so we will need to give it a few more spins. The standout tracks for us are "Sweet Music" and "Be Kind, Rewind" with Berri. You can listen the album on Spotify ...


"Love On Top Of Love" and "The Playpen" were both written and produced by Greg Fowler and Ed Taub. The album Play Together is available on digital outlets everywhere. Buy your copy today! We've added both songs to our 2026 Poptastic Confessions Playlist on Spotify.


Bred,
—Albert Green

Madrid (Dance All Summer) by TIN

Dear Poptastic Readers,

Queer artist TIN has a new song out and it is called "Madrid (Dance All Summer)." You might remember that we have featured his previous singles: "Dear Matthew", "Serotonin", "Sex, Cologne & Cigarettes", "Stung", and "Firm."


"Madrid (Dance All Summer)" starts off a bit somber. The lyrics are about meeting a guy in Madrid and letting go of your inhibitions. The music picks up for the chorus, but it isn't super-fast. It is like a moody mid-tempo dance pop song. We've added the official audio to our 2026 Poptastic Confessions YouTube Playlist ...


"Madrid (Dance All Summer)" was written by Tin Nguyen. It was produced by Lostchild. Mastered by Caspar Sutton-Jones. It is available on digital outlets everywhere. Buy your copy today! We've added it to our 2026 Poptastic Confessions Playlist on Spotify.


Serotonin,
—Albert Green
