Monte Carlo by Rikky Disco

Dear Poptastic Readers,

Rikky Disco has a new song out called "Monte Carlo." This is their second release of 2026, as their previous song was "Feel You On The Dancefloor."

"Monte Carlo" is one of those tracks that feels like an instrumental, but there are plenty of vocals. We just don't know what the words are. No matter, because this is a glorious slice of nu disco pop! This feels very lush, glamourous, and dramatic. We love it! We've added the official audio to our 2026 Poptastic Confessions YouTube Playlist ...

"Monte Carlo" was written and produced by Christian Jonson and Fanny Wahlqvist (aka Rikky Disco). It is available on digital outlets everywhere. Buy your copy today! We've added it to our 2026 Poptastic Confessions Playlist on Spotify.

Expectations,

—Davearama

I'm In Love With A German Film Star by Parralox

Dear Poptastic Readers,

Parralox are back with a brand-new single called "I'm In Love With German Film Star." HOORAY! Welcome back! This remake was originally performed by the British group The Passions in 1981. 

We weren't familiar with the original version of "I'm In Love With A German Film Star", but we are loving the Parralox version. For us, it feels like a brand-new song. The music has a heavy rhythm section, and light, airy synths making for a quite enjoyable combination. Louise does an amazing job on lead vocals with her smooth delivery. It's nice to hear Johanna and John on backing vocals, too. We've added the official audio to our 2026 Poptastic Confessions YouTube Playlist ...

"I'm In Love With A German Film Star" was Clive Wilfrid Myles Timperley, David Agar, Richard Paul Williams, and Barbara Louise Gogan. It was produced by John von Ahlen. It is available on digital outlets everywhere. Buy your copy today! Listen to it on our 2026 Poptastic Confessions Playlist on Spotify.

Steppin' out,

—Davearama

You'll Love Again by Jupiter Pulse featuring Ann Seeza

Dear Poptastic Readers,

Jupiter Pulse is back with another new single with Ann Seeza and it is called "You'll Love Again." This follows their previous singles together: "Deception And Your Twisted Lies" and "You'll Never Love Me Again."

"You'll Love Again" is emotional dance pop with a classic Eurodance sound. The melody is a bit dark and mysterious. The lyrics are for a former love and wishing them well in future love. Has the singer died and is singing from the great beyond? Have a listen and you decide. Ann's powerful vocals are amazing. We've added the official audio to our 2026 Poptastic Confessions YouTube Playlist ...

"You'll Love Again" was written by Juan Pedro Pérez Gallego. It was produced by FMD. It is available on digital outlets everywhere. Buy your copy today. We've added it to our 2026 Poptastic Confessions Playlist on Spotify.

Tomorrow will be late,

All We Need by Rhona Bennett

Dear Poptastic Readers,

Former En Vogue singer Rhona Bennett is back with a new song called "All We Need." This follows her previous single "What We Got", which was released in January.

"All We Need" starts off sounding like a ballad, but then the trip hop beat kicks and changes the mood entirely. The synths add a futuristic element. Rhonda sounds great on this. We need to learn the words that chorus! We've added the official audio to our 2026 Poptastic Confessions YouTube Playlist ...

"All We Need" was written by Rhona Bennett and David Kater, who produced the track. It is available on digital outlets everywhere. Buy your copy today! Listen to it on our 2026 Poptastic Confessions Playlist on Spotify.

What we got,

Ride and I Could Get Used To This by Jessie Ware

Dear Poptastic Readers,

A few weeks ago, Jessie Ware released a new single called "Ride." When we went to look it up, we noticed that she had released a song in January called "I Could Get Used To This." D'oh! Better late than never!

Let's start with "Ride." While it has some Western elements, this is not a country song. Instead, it is sultry electro number with a steady beat. It's very sexy song and we are digging it. The black and white music video features Jessie with a cowboy. We've added it to our 2026 Poptastic Confessions YouTube Playlist ...

As for "I Could Get Used To This" ...

This is a bit light and airy affair. It is very artsy with disco strings and a funky bass, but the song neither sounds like funk or disco. We've also added the colorful music video to our 2026 Poptastic Confessions YouTube Playlist ...

"Ride" was written by Jessie Ware, Sam Knowles, Jack Peñate, Ennio Morricone, James Ford, Clarence Coffee Jr. It was produced by Jessie Ware, Barney Lister, Stuart Price, and Karma Kid. "I Could Get Used To This" was written by Jessie Ware, Jon Shave, Sophie Brenan, and Miranda Cooper. It was produced by Jessie Ware, Barney Lister, Jon Shave, and Tommy D.

Both are available for purchase on digital outlets everywhere. Buy your copies today. We've added them to our 2026 Poptastic Confessions Playlist on Spotify.

Kiss of life,

—Sausi O'Sullivan

Dancefloor Erotica by Dagny

 Dear Poptastic Readers,

Norwegian artist Dagny is back with her first new song of 2026, and the track is called "Dancefloor Erotica." Oooh lala! 

"Dancefloor Erotica" is a fierce upbeat pop dance track. Overall, this is very fun. Dagny sounds very confident. The music is funky while sounding retro and futuristic all at the same time. We've added the lyric video to our 2026 Poptastic Confessions YouTube Playlist ...

"Dancefloor Erotica" was written by Dagny Norvoll, Matias Tellez, and Nick Hahn. It was produced by Matias Tellez. 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.

Undefeated Champion by Melanie C

Dear Poptastic Readers,

On Friday, Melanie C released the third single from her upcoming album Sweat. The new single is called "Undefeated Champion." It follows "What Could Possibly Go Wrong", which was released in January, and "Sweat", which was released last year. "Sweat" was #14 in our Top 101 Songs of 2025.

"Undefeated Champion" is a fun pop song. It was dance elements, but it isn't sure fast. It has a great rhythm section and happy feel to it. Melanie sounds great. This is a great era for her. We are digging it. Sadly, there is no music video, lyric video, or visualizer. We've added the official audio to our 2026 Poptastic Confessions YouTube Playlist ...

"Undefeated Champion" was written by Melanie C, Luis Navidad, and Glen Joseph Roberts. It was produced by Luis Navidad. It is available on digital outlets everywhere. Buy your copy today! We've added it to our 2026 Poptastic Confessions Playlist on Spotify.

Dancing home tonight with my high heels in my hand,
