Welcome to Poptastic Confessions! This blog is dedicated to glorious, unashamed alternative pop music! We hope to share new music with you that you might not have heard before because it is usually overlooked by the masses. Of course, we'll always encourage you to buy the music legally to support the artists. Enjoy! —Davearama, editor of Poptastic Confessions
Dear Poptastic Readers, Last week, we featured Betty Who's return with "Some Kinda Wonderful" as the first single from her new album The Valley. Well, the album is out and the video for the second single "Mama Say" debuted this week, too.
"Mama Say" has quite the Britney Spears references in the lyrics. And a super-cute video with a fun dance routine. Have a look ...
Dear Poptastic Readers, Last month, we discovered the amazing song "Pulling Me In" by Phantoms. While we have thoroughly enjoyed listening to it on our 2017 playlist, Phantoms have gone and dropped a new single called "Been Here Before."
"Been Here Before" is a darker slice of electropop. It starts off a little jarring, but once the song gets going, it sounds like something you might hear in a very dark club. Just have a listen ...
Dear Poptastic Readers, English electro duo Goldfrapp have a new song out called "Anymore" that is quite the grower the more we listen to it. While we aren't always that familiar with their work, we loved their 2005 hits "Ooh La La" and "Number 1."
When we first heard "Anymore" we weren't sure what to think of it as we were watching the video with a bunch white women walking around the dessert while artistically striking poses and dancing about. We just kept hoping those women were wearing sunscreen so they didn't get sunburned. Have a look ...
Dear Poptastic Readers, Last week, we highlighted the new song from The Saturdays singer Una Healy. That reminded us to see what the other Saturdays singers were up to, and it looks like Vanessa White has been making solo music all along. Her latest song is called "Good Good" and we agree that is indeed good good.
"Good Good" is an RnB track with very sensual lyrics. Vanessa has some soaring vocals. It's nice to hear her voice again. Have a listen ...
Dear Poptastic Readers, Sometimes we are late to the party, and that is just the way it goes. Back in October, Rose Elinor Dougall released a single called "Stellular." We missed it, however, we didn't miss Rose's glorious song "One Way Glass" with Innerspace Orchestra last year.
"Stellular" was the first single from Rose's new album also called Stellular. Wanna hear the song? Just check out the video ...
Dear Poptastic Readers, Erasure are back with a new album in May called World Be Gone and the first single is called "Love You To The Sky."
You may remember that we thought Erasure knocked it out of the park with their 2014 single "Elevation." This is nice follow-up The Violet Flame album. As of right now, there is a lyric video. Watch here ...
