Eline Noelia – ‘Don’t Pray For Me’
Most of us were praying for Eline Noelia to succeed in Melodi Grand Prix earlier this year. However the young Norwegian star has not let that hold her back as she returns with, ‘Don’t Pray For Me’. This Gothic-tinged, pop anthem showcases the best of what Eline can do, as her vocal power matches the ever increasing tempo until it reaches the catchy chants of the bridge and takes you to church. This religious experience is definitely one for the Summer playlists!
Cazzi Opeia – ‘You’re My Sunshine’
Earlier this year we couldn’t get enough of Cazzi Opeia’s infectious, electronic, disco bop, ‘I Just Can’t Get Enough‘ in Melodifestivalen 2022. So it brings us great delight that Cazzi is back with the follow up single, ‘You’re My Sunshine’. The unbridled joy continues in ‘You’re My Sunshine’. A love song that also shows love and brings out the sunshine in the captivating, clap-along beats and disco fusion.
Raylee – ‘Baila’
Last but not least on New Music Friday is three-time Melodi Grand Prix participant, Raylee. After a year away Raylee is back with a new sound. Recently she released the flavourful, ‘Mojito‘ and now she’s ready to hit the dancefloor in, ‘Baila’. Of course, we don’t need to be told twice either! Throughout this dance is a Spanglish tribute to the best of Latin trap and castanet energy that will make you want to keep partying all night long.
