Bonus: #21 of 2024

Dear Poptastic Readers,

If you are just joining us, we have been counting down our Top 141 Songs of 2024. Today we feature the song that just missed our Top 20, and we view this placement as very special, and we always give it a callout. Tomorrow, we feature the next song in the countdown.

 

#21 in Poptastic Confessions Top 141 Songs of 2024 is: "Blame It On" by Sarah von Reis. Click on the name of the song to see what we said about it earlier this year.


 

Written by: Sarah von Reis and Michelle Amkoff

Produced by: Michelle Amkoff


Why: "Blame It On" was the ballad of 2024 that we could not get out of our heads. According to Spotify, it was one of most played tracks of the year, and we aren't even big on ballads! However, this piano-led song captivated us all year long. Sarah's smooth vocals really highlight the haunting melody. The melancholy chorus will have you longing for a grey, winter's day. We just adore this. Sarah has a new song out called "Nest" and we will feature that in January.

 

Watch: Sadly, there was no music video or official visualizer, so we've added the official audio to our 2024 Poptastic Confessions Playlist on YouTube.
