ALESSO & KAITLIN ARAGON - FIGHT FOR LOVE

 Swedish DJ and producer Alesso has one of the most interesting new dance anthems this week. A dramatic violin arrangement opens "Fight For Love" and never leaves, weaving as a recurring thread beneath Alesso’s driving progressive house foundation. Aragon’s powerful, haunting vocals bring the song’s central message of devotion, protection and unwavering commitment to life.Aragon is no stranger to high-profile dance music collaborations, having lent her vocals to Kaskade’s "Runaway" among many more.The melody the instruments arrangement and the whole environment makes "Fight For Love" an easy choice for anyone's playlist.

BOY GEORGE - WE WILL DANCE AGAIN

 Have a great week soundfisters....

Basically i am against mixing politics with music but it always happened and always will. From the 60's with anti-war songs to apartheid and feed the world or USA For Africa till the recent "free Palestine" artists "dared" to choose a side and make music for it.Just like a coin has two sides there are many out there who chooses to support Israel instead of the "free Palestine" movement that excuse my English but it's gone too far lately and became the new woke agenda. In a dangerous world Boy George made his choice and released "We Will Dance Again", a reggae-influenced track that became one of his most controversial musical releases.The track, which combines English and Hebrew lyrics, expresses solidarity with Israel and commemorates the victims of the October 7, 2023, attack on the Nova music festival. George also uses the song to challenge criticism of Israel’s military campaign in Gaza, placing the release firmly at the intersection of music and politics.As it was expected and after even death threats for Boy George the song is currently on the spotlight demonstrating how music can become a flashpoint for wider political and cultural debates.In a democracy all voices must be heard when someone chooses to do so on the right time and on the right place.In any case it's anyone's choice to hear this song or another from the other opinion but forcing me to embrace or being manipulated on any side is what makes really angry.

ZACH BRYAN ft LANA DEL REY - LIES

 Next week two names will dominate the charts on both sides of the Atlantic.Fontaine D.C and Zach Bryan with multiple songs will leave no room for many others to enter the charts.One of the songs featured on Bryan’s brand new EP "Young Manhood and Other Donatable Organs" is his duet with Lana Del Rey.Built around delicate piano and sweeping strings, the song explores the painful contradictions of a relationship in which desire outweighs honesty.Bryan brings his rough-edged, emotionally exposed vocal delivery, while Del Rey adds her signature dreamy, cinematic melancholy and that really works in my opinion.This is a ballad that can take this song very far all the way to Christmas and maybe beyond that.Zach Bryan and Lana Del Rey together is a pairing I’d happily hear more of. I love the contrast in their voices, and the piano and strings give them a beautiful setting to sing over."Lies" is an easy one to get caught up in and sing along with and that's what makes usually a song a crossover hit.

MORRISSEY - ISLE OF DOGS

 Two previously unreleased B-sides are on the loose by Morrissey since last Friday and "Isle Of Dogs" is my pick between them.It appears as the B-side to the "Kerching Kerching" 7-inch vinyl single and was written by Morrissey and Alain Whyte, his longtime musical collaborator.The song revisits the distinctive world of Morrissey: sharp-edged British alternative pop, theatrical delivery and a melodic sensibility that recalls his solo catalogue and the legacy of The Smiths.It feels an intriguing return to a more vintage Morrissey sound that's why i picked it over "Without Music The World Dies" the other unreleased track also released this week.

BLONDIE - SPECTRAL EYES

 At some point the end would come....The new single from Blondie marks the return of one of new wave’s most enduring bands. Released on October 15, 2026, "Spectral Eyes" is the lead track from "High Noon", their first studio album in nine years and their final due February 26, 2027. The song was written by Johnny Marr, the former The Smiths guitarist, who also contributes guitar and backing vocals.The release also carries emotional weight cause it features the final recordings of founding drummer Clem Burke, who died in 2025.This is a salute to the pop sound that defined the late seventies to early eighties a classic Blondie sound that defined them all these decades.The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame band ruled the late 1970s and early ’80s with eight Top 40 hits, including four No. 1s: "Heart of Glass", "Call Me", "The Tide Is High" and "Rapture" which is regarded as the first No. 1 hit to feature rap.

HUGEL & SNOOP DOGG - H.O.U.S.E

 This release caps off an exceptional year for HUGEL. His first album, "Twenty One" was a great success internationally, while his hits "Movin To The Sun" (probably one of the biggest hits of the year) and "Jamaican (Bam Bam)" confirmed his status on the global electronic music scene.Now HUGEL and Snoop Dogg released "H.O.U.S.E" a new single that drops the Long Beach legend into the Latin house groove the French producer has turned into a global formula.To my ears this new dance tune sounds a lot like someone used Lil Louis "French Kiss" and then put Snoop Dogg rap on it.Now Snoop was already on HUGEL's mind since Snoop was already part of his album. He opens HUGEL’s debut album "Twenty One", handling the intro before the record moves into features from David Guetta, French Montana, Big Sean and Ultra Naté.As for this one i would like less Snoop rapping and more chopped vocals but eventually it will work especially if an instrumental version appears.

U2 - THE GREATEST SHOW ON EARTH

 For several weeks now U2 are preparing their comeback with several new songs that this blog has already reviewed."The Greatest Show on Earth" is the third single from the forthcoming album "Carnaval De Luz" co-written with longtime collaborator Brian Eno.It's a slow-burning, emotionally charged rock epic that combines their trademark atmospheric guitars with Bono’s deeply expressive vocals.Critics have praised the song’s powerful vocal performance, familiar yet compelling sound and carefully constructed crescendo. Bono himself has described it as one of the band’s greatest songs in years."The Greatest Show on Earth" is ultimately about the painful realisation that something once extraordinary may now exist only in memory.The song was released along the announcement of U2's "Greatest Show on Earth" world tour kicking of in latin America in 2027.You can't go wrong by choosing U2 for your playlist not to mention that it's a great song.

OLIVIA RODRIGO & CHAPELL ROAN - EXPECTATIONS

 The second big release of the week is this one. Although the song was already known from Olivia Rodrigo's album i thought that this duet with Chapell Roan as a new version would be a remixed one or maybe better. But in vain since it's almost the same apart Roan's vocals.In the video for the song there is a cameo appearence by David Byrne while the new wave-inflected bop filled with copious handclaps, squirmy synths, and buzzy guitar licks is expected to blow up the next days on the charts.Apart from that "Expectations" yes,it might be a part of this indie-pop era but it's not a song in my opinion that many ( maybe except fans) will remember in two years.There are better songs out there but unfortunately they don't have a Chapell Roan or Olivia Rodrigo to support them.

TATE McRAE - HOUSEWIFE

 There are two major releases this week and this is one of them.Tate McRae is a pop icon of our days but what do you want me to say when her brand single "Housewife" sounds too generic in my ears.Depending on her image and her appeal right now in the pop music scene the song will appear high or lower on the charts.The stunning visuals of the video for the song will definitely help the buzz around this new song by Tate but that doesn't change my first impression of the song.On the othe hand "Housewife" is a bold pop statement that challenges traditional ideas of relationships, success and domestic life.  Not every listener is entirely convinced about it's worth or not however, with some early fan reviews they are finding the lyrics clichéd despite appreciating the production and distinctive sound.With pop music penetrating my ears for so many decades i was expecting more from this one.

JUSTICE, TAME IMPALA, SZA & KING GIZZARD & THE LIZARD WIZARD - FLOWER IN A HURRICANE

 Video games are attracting more and more the attention of artists making huge contributions on the soundtracks of famous and global phenomenon games. And not only that cause like this one most of them are huge collaborations.French duo Justice score for the much-anticipated GTAVI game an electonic rock anthem that stands like a "Flower In A Hurricane".For that reason they team up with Tame Impala, SZA, and King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard switching off vocals on the track, which sounds like a modern take on a song gamers might have heard on the soundtrack for the Eighties-based Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, the setting that GTAVI revisits albeit in a present day. The song also reunites Justice with Tame Impala, who was a contributor to the duo’s album "Hyperdrama".Some say that the song sounds a lot like Dire Straits "Money For Nothing" but i ll say that the moment i heard it it reminded me the riff from Rainbow's "Man On The Silver Mountain".Expect more all star singles over the next weeks related to the game and enjoy this one.

ZARA LARSSON - BLUE MOON

 Describing it as the "sister" of the album’s title track "Midnight Sun" and stating that it deserved a music video and greater recognition Zara Larsson continues to expand her pop attitude in the music world as one of the most noticable."Blue Moon" was later re-recorded with American singer Kehlani for Larsson’s remix album "Midnight Sun: Girls Trip" but in September 2026 in an article with Billboard, Larsson expressed her intention to promote "Blue Moon" as her brand new single.This is an euphoric dose of pop with some DnB details from MNEK who is among the songwriters that puts faith in Zara on becoming her next hit while " Midnight Sun" continues it's way up the charts after so many months. Zara is a pop icon nowdays whether someone agrees or not.

DIGGA - GIRLS ALL AROUND THE WORLD

 I haven't heard a song from that genre trending in the Uk in a very very long time. In the past decades artists like Shaggy, Aswad or UB 40 had huge hits with reggae influenced vibes in the Uk chart. I could explain it if we were moving towards summer but fall isn't exactly the right time for "Girls Around The World" to be a potential hit in the Uk the next days.The real reason for Digga to appear in the charts is a  Morrisson’s recent diss track sparking a wave of discussion across social media. The track divided opinion, with some listeners questioning the language and allegations used, while others defended Morrisson’s side of the story.And the question on how Digga would respond led him to troll rap fans with "Girls All Around The World" a viral reggae-influenced track instead of a response to Morrisson’s diss track!. From his rise through UK drill to chart success, controversy and the different chapters that have followed, Digga has continued to find ways to keep people talking.And this track is a nice surprise despite the reason is trending right now.

JUDELINE - LA FALDA

 It's not only Rosalia who's rising on the music world. Judeline is no stranger to the blog and she was highlighted before.Her real name is Lara Fernández Castrelo raised in Andalusia and her music is strongly influenced by her roots.With her new single Judeline takes a daring risk on "La Falda" anchored by a sample of Yann Tiersen’s iconic Amélie theme ("J'y suis jamais allé").Underneath the signature 808 thuds and classic reggaeton swing, warm flamenco guitar chops keep the track rooted in her signature sound. Judeline’s vocals float effortlessly over the beat, shifting between airy, whisper-soft melodies and slick rhythmic phrasing. The contrast between European film-score nostalgia and urban Latin syncopation gives the track an intoxicating energy.The song made quite an impression this week and was listed as one of the best new single releases.It needs to be heard and expand.

JACK SAVORETTI - TICK TOCK (SINGLE VERSION)

 Tick Tock...who's there? Jack Savoretti is with yet another sibgle from his latest album "We Will Always Be The Way We Were". Blending melancholic piano-led passages with a gradually expanding, almost anthemic arrangement, the song showcases the British-Italian singer-songwriter’s distinctive, husky vocals and emotionally direct songwriting.The song explores the passage of time, the complexities of life and the importance of self-expression. "Tick Tock" captures Savoretti’s gift for turning personal reflections into something universal, balancing vulnerability with a quietly uplifting message about finding one's place in an ever-changing world.And yet is another good song that unless Tik Tok doesn't embrace it it will stay in a corner in someone's life.

FONTAINES DC & ROSALIA - WHERE IS GONE

 Have a great week soundfisters....

And it starts with a great song that was made to be memorized in years and decades to come."Where Is Gone?" serves as Track 8 on Fontaines D.C.’s fifth studio album, Dopamine Chamber (dropping October 16, 2026, via XL Recordings), and is notably the first-ever guest feature on a studio album in the band's career.Choosing Rosalia for this epic track was the best choice anyone could think of especially now that Rosalia has elevated her artistic identity to the best anyone would expect.Opening with cinematic, Ennio Morricone-esque grandeur and mid-century noir balladry, the track pits Grian Chatten’s gritty, bruised delivery directly against Rosalía’s haunting, flawless vocal phrasing.The duet sounds less like a typical indie-pop crossover and more like a lost, dark Bond theme directed by Nick Cave. Fontaines D.C. and Rosalía deliver an astonishing, spellbinding highlight that elevates the entire album and provides one of the best singles this year.
