New Music Friday this week with Måns Zelmerlöw & Dotter, Sevak Khanagyan, Janice Mangion and more!

It's Friday and you all know what that means! New. Music. Friday! This week we're taking you on a journey through Sweden, Malta, Italy, Poland and more, so hop on the ride and click through the pages below to check out this week's new releases. Måns Zelmerlöw & Dotter - Walk With Me The winner of the Eurovision Song Contest 2015, Måns Zelmerlöw is back with a new single. This time he teamed up with 2018 Melodifestivalen entrant Dotter to showcase a whole new side of him. Check out more about "Walk With Me", which will premiere during Sweden's Melodifestivalen tomorrow in the Andra Chansen interval! https://escxtra.com/2019/03/01/mans-zelmerlow-releases-new-single-with-dotter-walk-with-me/ Janice Mangion - Xewqti Not often have Malta been close to sending their native tongue Maltese to Eurovision. In 2017, they really had the chance when Janice Mangion entered "Kewkba". With her mesmerising vocal, Janice manages to bring any message across in Maltese. "Xewqti" tells us the story of anti-bullying, a topic dear to the singer. Worth checking this out! https://open.spotify.com/track/6Z45hxDg7IX2foUtGRf4fK?si=vbtvBI0gT9eDbw76ChOuLw YOHIO - My Nocturnal Serenade It's been a while since we saw YOHIO in Melodifestivalen, but we sure haven't forgotten him. He's back with a mini album, an EP with just three songs on it. YOHIO has taken a more theatrical approach this time, with a couple of circus sounds making their way onto the release. The EP starts off with "My Nocturnal Serenade", followed by "Merry Go Round" and "Tick Tack (Genius)". All three songs definitely deserve our attention, so here they are! https://open.spotify.com/album/7nmvAbX53SFgmWLh2Sz1W8?si=rpy5-qRXRK6fX3vtBBd0Cw Molly Sandén - Den Som E Den The Melodifestivalen days of Molly Sandén are as long gone as those of YOHIO, but the same rule applies. Who can forget about such a talent? From the girl who did sweet ballads, she's turned into a true star on the Swedish music scene. Her "Den Som E Den" combines the Swedish language with electronic sounds. It all gives the song a contemporary feel, to quote Petra Mede. https://open.spotify.com/track/72yeOK93gnHkEYwtFJPmZH?si=b8dHFSScShOEOZfm-wfdYA Kerrie-Anne - Sweet Lies Now, normally we wouldn't share a national final song in New Music Friday, but this time we had to! Since its performance in Eurovision: You Decide, fans have been begging Kerrie-Anne to release her "Sweet Lies". And she has finally done it! Now available on your music platforms, so give her the listens she deserves! https://open.spotify.com/track/6JWZNszpwYSVJouJq5RcGB?si=RU2KTU_nTgevbNMsLqR9CQ Sarah Dawn Finer & Eric Saade - Ljuset OK, we're staying with national finals for now. But not a song that competed, although we do wonder how far it would get when it did compete... Two of this year's Melodifestivalen hosts, Sarah Dawn Finer and Eric Saade, have released their interval song "Ljuset". It's now on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/track/6YswlvnzAH8lfm0XzwYzgk?si=7uOwOyd1S520hjPQe7452Q Sevak Khanagyan - Okean Vnutri Tebya Back in Lisbon, Sevak Khanagyan proudly represented Armenia at the contest. He then didn't make the final cut with his "Qami", but that obviously hasn't stopped him. Sevak lived in Russia for many years during his childhood, so he sure is able to deliver us a great song in Russian. And here it is: Okean Vnutri Tebya! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IVPQ7BbV2SQ Jessika - No La Conoces Our second visit to Malta tonight goes to Jessika. She represented San Marino last year, together with Jenifer Brening. Now, she has turned on the Latin flavour for her new single. It's called "No La Conoces" and, as you may guess, it combines English with the ultimate language for a Latin song: Spanish. https://open.spotify.com/track/3EZLiPvAFHC8oC2mt95nLp?si=NKSXk88OTd68k7nIOabOUg Julie Bergan - STFU Norway have found themselves a star. Now, they've done that a good while ago, but many Eurovision fans will know her from before her career really took off. Back in 2013, Julie Bergan tried to win Melodi Grand Prix in Norway, but failed to make it to the final. After experimenting with new genres, such as future bass, R&B and tropical house, she scored her first #1 hit with "Arigato" in 2016. And now there's a new one: The rather explicit (don't say we didn't warn you) "STFU"! https://open.spotify.com/track/4MY1amv4MW0wyH5vqB89vk?si=KfUyqsYvSsCRTRES-1dCew Thank you for checking out this week’s new releases from our favourite Eurovision stars! Hopefully you’ve found new songs to fill your playlist with in the upcoming week! We’ll be back next week with more of our favourite releases! If we missed a song this week, let us know and we might just include it next week!
