Clean Bandit - Rather Be (feat. Jess Glynne)

The ones that's been following my blog and/or know me, knows that I have a weak spot for strings. This lovely pop/dance track from british group Clean Bandit pulls on my heartstrings and makes me happy and makes me wanna get out of my chair and start some spontanous dancing!
"Rather Be" is the fourth single taken from the groups upcoming debut album called "New Eyes", and features vocals from Jess Glynne. The song is produced and written by the group itself together with co-writor Jimmy Napes(from Disclosure) debuted at number one when it was released in the UK on the 19th of January and is actually such a success that it's the highest selling January single since 1996("Spaceman" by Babylon Zoo)!

Party Friday: The Saturdays - What about us

Here's a happy return by our favorite Saturday-girls(even though it's Friday). The group is set to conquer America with their music and a reality show on E!. This is their brand new music video and first US single for the girls ever. It does not disappoint and makes us wanna head out dancing right now. So yeah, we are... see ya on the dance floor!

Olly Murs - Dance With Me Tonight

I've been away from here for a long time. I just wanted to post something quick--it just got my attention, and I couldn't help having it here.

Listen to Olly's "Dance with me Tonight" and if you do have a chance, listen to his latest album "In Case You Didn't Know."

Cher Lloyd - With Ur Love (feat. Mike Posner)

"With Ur Love" is Cher Lloyd's second top ten single("Swagger Jagger" being the first), and she's back singing about people with Swagger, and this time also 'bout love. Cher Lloyd wrote the song together with talented guys like Savan Kotecha, Shellback, Max Martin and Mike Posner. Mike Posner is also featured on the track, that was produced by Shellback. In the song Cher sings about what the love from this special guy is doing to her and that she lives in a bubble and can do anything she wants with the strength from his love. The track is featured on Cher's debut album "Sticks + Stones" that is out now.

Rihanna - We found love (Feat. Calvin Harris)

Rihanna has collaborated with Calvin Harris on her brand new single. The song is called "We found love" and feels like an natural progression from "Only Girl", with a dash of more house to it in the vain of David Guetta or Avicii. I found it that Rihanna's voice fit these kinda tracks like a glove. Since she has collaborated with a British producer, the video is very British aswell, in a Street kinda way. And it's also got speeding and move effects like the dance music videos in the 90's had.

Jessie J - Who you are

"Who you are" are a self-empowering song in the same vain as Christina Aguilera's "Beautiful" and Lady Gaga's "Born this way". It's the first song that I heard with Jessie J and also my favorite of hers. It's a slow ballad with heartfelt vocals. The song was written by Jessie J along with Toby Gad and Shelly Peiken.

"Sometimes it's hard, to follow your heart.
Tears don't mean you're losing, everybody's bruising,
Just be true to who you are!"

Jessie J - Who you are

Adele - Someone like you

The long awaited video for Adele's "Someone like you" is here. And like the song it's a scaled down beautiful and sad affair -in black and white.The video was shot in the beautiful streets of Paris. 

Adele - Someone like you

The Wanted - Lightning

The wanted knows how we like it. They've released a new single along with a video. And both are great and exactly what we want and expect from them. It's dance/pop with killer hooks and the video is an outdoor rave party gone wild. The song's about sharing a kiss with that special someone you've had your eyes on.

The Wanted - Lightning

Julian Perretta - If I Ever Feel Better

I liked Julian Perretta before, but after this I love him! Can't stop listening to this. The singer-writer has gone and done a soul/pop-hit -and I can't get enough off it. Check out the video now -it's an order! I would describe it being a mix between Maroon 5's "Moves like Jagger", Robin Thicke and a splash Frankmusik maybe.

Marcus Foster - I was broken

Marcus Foster is a British singer-songwriter who wrote a track for the soundtrack of the first Twilight movie, then sung by teenage heartthrob Rob Pattinson("Let me sign"). Now Marcus Foster is releasing a new song, this time sung by himself, but in the video he's supported by yet another Twilight star -Kristen Stewart. We love this song as much as we loved "Let me sign", they're equally emotional and equally breaks our hearts, this is a really really sad song.

"I Was Broken" is  out 19 September.. The track is taken from his debut album "Nameless Path", released 26 September.

Joe Goddard - Gabriel (feat. Valentina)

Joe Goddard is one half of the English electronic indie act, Hot Chip. And when you listen to his solo EP "Gabriel" it's hard to not think of them. The difference here is that the music is a bit darker and got a more house oriented sound, without loosing that special indie-feeling though(much thanks to the vocals performed by Valentina).It's my desire that this will become huge and that the general public will take this unique song to their hearts. If I can have my way I want this heartbreaking song to be be this years "With Everyheartbeat".

To Kill A King - Bloody Shirt

The lads from the UK, I like 'em. Their group, formed in 2009, To Kill A King, I really really like it. And the song, "Bloody Shirt," very much like it.

For now, listen to this. As their new single "We Used to Protest/Gamble" releases, I will post it here.

Emeli Sandé - Heaven

Emeli Sandé is of Scottish descent and has written songs for a number of stars like She has written for a number of artists, including Cher Lloyd, Susan Boyle, Leona Lewis, Cheryl Cole, and Tinie Tempah. Simon Cowell has called her "his favourite songwriter at the minute".

Her debut single is called "Heaven" and is a drum'n'bass/dubstep-fusion topped with Sandé's beautiful vocals. The song debuted at #2 on the UK singles chart, and her album "Our Version of Events" is slated for a November release.

Remady - Way we are

Swiss producer Remady who got his break in the UK with his club track "No Superstar" and his collaboration with Craig David on "Do it on my own" is back with the lead single from his upcoming album. The track is called "Way we are" and is joined again by Manu-L on vocals. He was featured on the majority of tracks on Remady's last album.

Video Update: Leona Lewis / Avicii - Collide

Leona has premiered the video to her latest single "Collide". She's having a day out at the beach with her friends and it all seem pretty beautiful I must say.

Leona Lewis / Avicii - Collide

Bombay Bicycle Club - Shuffle

Here's another indie band from the United Kingdom, and they're called Bombay Bicycle Club. I wonder where the name comes from.

Well, they've been around for a while and have released three albums. This is a single from their new album titled "Shuffle"slated for release on August 29.

I like the song, and see it on repeat on my play list (But for now, I'm like stuck to Super Junior that my dear friend just posted here!)

Snow Patrol - Called Out In The Dark

The Northern Ireland band Snow Patrol is back with a new song and they've got a slightly new approach. The song sounds more indie pop and less alternative rock, which is what they usually do. And the music video it's got dancing in it! And we can't do anything but looove this and urge you to watch the video.

Mika - Elle Me Dit

This past month Mika released his first French single called "Elle Me Dit"(=She Tells Me), from his upcoming album "The Origin of Love". Now the video is being released and it's a happy feast with a dancing and singing family, who does just that to the song. French actress Fanny Ardant also makes an appearance in the video. The song has peaked at #6 in French iTunes.

Marvin Priest - Take Me Away (feat. Wynter Gordon)

Marvin Priest is the son of reggae star Maxi Priest, and signed to Universal Music Australia. He recorded his debut single together with Brian McFadden in Sydney. The song has climbed the ARIA charts, and now Marvin is releasing his second single called "Take Me Away" featuring one of our soft spots when it comes to dance artists -Wynter Gordon. Which is a smart move since Wynter recently had great success in Aussieland.

I would describe "Take Me Away" as a mix between a traditional 90's dance song with a updated urban sound to it.

Nicola Roberts - Lucky Day

Nicola Roberts, former member of British girlband Girls Aloud, is releasing the video for her fresh new single "Lucky Day". The video is fun and quirky -and so is the song. It's a mix of all kinds of things, it sounds indie, it sounds like 60's pop, and yet a modern dance song in it's production. I was very skeptic about this to begin with and I haven't been that found of Nicola previously, but I do love this. It's a treat. Maybe the dress in the video is a tiny bit too short.... What do u reckon?
