Although many people can't be together right now, Ryan reminds us it's still ok to have hope and aspirations for the future. Have a look at the music video, which features personal holiday footage from his time in South America: Ryan O'Shaughnessy - 'Lucky One' Mohombi & Klara Hammarström - 'The One' After participating in Melodifestivalen earlier this year, Mohombi and Klara Hammarström have teamed up on this new duet, 'The One'. In a shift from their usual sounds, this is a mid-tempo story of love which complements their vocals with a guitar melody. Give the new single a listen below: Mohombi & Klara Hammarström - 'The One' Vincent Bueno - 'Family Fight' Austria's 2021 participant Vincent Bueno arrives this week with a personal song dedicated to family togetherness in hard times.

With footage of his family from across the world, you can watch the emotional video below: Vincent Bueno - 'Family Fight' Dina Garipova - 'Удивительный' The 'What If' singer Dina Garipova returns with new song 'Удивительный' (Amazing). It's a gentle summer track which fuses the 70s with modern pop and fits perfectly with Dina's melodic vocals. Listen to the new single and watch the music video below: Dina Garipova - 'Удивительный' Synne Valtri Band - 'Levist väljas' The final song of New Music Friday comes this week from Synne Valtri. The two time Eesti Laul entrant is back with another anthem. Although without her sailor bears this time, 'Levist väljas' or 'Out of Range' is Synne at her Schlager best. Here the Estonian vowels take a lighthearted look at how the fates guide the path to romance. With Synne's whimsical story telling wrapped around a fusion of retro and tropical beats. To capture the spirit of the song Synne brings her cheeky, fun side to the music video, taking us back to the 1950s. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bmKcQ1e1yhY That was the best of New Music Friday this week.
