So many interesting new tracks this week, featuring LGBTIQ artists such as Bebe Rexha, Troye Sivan, Jamie Hannah, lead singer Tom Hugo from Norway’s Eurovision entrants KEiiNO, Brendan Urie, Ben Davidson and Andy Bell (from Erasure).

Song Of The Week: Common Ground from TWO LANES and Kenyan Lonsdale (see above)

Similar to LAUV & Troye Sivans I’m So Tired, another of those lovely EDM growers. Vocals from Kenyan Lonsdale, an Aussie gay boy who was the love interest in Love, Simon. Below is the lyric video.

What I’ve Seen This Week :

Film : Top-End Wedding : Very much a crowd pleaser, funny, sad and touching, with a wonderful Aussie cast and some amazing footage from the top-end of Australias including Darwin, Katherine and the Tiwi Islands. The plot is about a woman not sure about getting married, who’s father’s wife has left him, and she can’t marry without her mother. A bit confusing, but don’t worry, there’s a happy ending and a marriage. Loved it. Plus a wonderful indigenous soundtrack (except for Chicago’s classic 80’s song If You Leave Me Now).
