Dear Poptastic Readers,
If you are just joining us, we have been counting down our Top 141 Songs of 2024 with a new song every day. Today is the final day in the countdown.
#1 in Poptastic Confessions Top 141 Songs of 2024 is: "Just Like That (I Like It)" by Alcazar (Andreas Lundstedt, Annikafiore, Lina Hedlund, and Tess Merkel). Click on the name of the song to see what we said about it earlier this year.

Why: Alcazar's cover version of "Just Like That (I Like It)" is so much fun. The music is reminiscent of their megahit "This Is The World We Live In." Alcazar turned this rock song into an instant disco classic. Besides the glorious chorus, our favourite part is when Annikafiore hits a high note near the end, and that reminds us of when she did it in "Alcastar." This song has been on constant play since we heard it. We can get enough. We love it just like that.
Watch: There is an official lyric music video that shows some classic Alcazar footage mixed in with the last lineup of the group. We've added it to our 2024 Poptastic Confessions Playlist on YouTube.
Live performance: The original lineup of Alcazar (Andreas, Annikafiore, and Tess) reunited for a Swedish TV Show called Så Myckret Bättre (aka So Much Better). They performed the song live in front of the cast of the show. When we first saw it, we cried when Annikafiore hit the high note. No other music moved us this way this year, which is why this is our #1 song.
Chart history: Most of Alcazar's biggest hits happened before Poptastic Confessions was around, but they have been on our countdown many times. Annikafiore has been at our #1 spot before, so this is a second time for her!
