We were never going to go past a Eurovision winner, a drag queen with a beard who can actually sing, and big middle finger to Russia all rolled into one, now were we? Conchita Wurst tops our list for additions this week with her Bond-esque anthem celebrating being whomever you want to be.
Jedward might have used Kyle Sandilands and KIIS to reach the masses when previewing their new single last month, but guess which Australian station is first to provide “Free Spirit” with regular airplay?
UK rock band Coldplay have teamed up with Avicii and produced a genuine dance-pop smash that may surprise most Coldplay traditionalists. We love “A Sky Full of Stars”.
Grammy Award-winning UK songstress Foxes returns with the third single from her debut album.
The title track and third single from Little Mix’s second studio album, Salute, sounds remarkably like Beyoncé’s We Run the World (Girls).
Aussie music this week includes our own unofficial Eurovision entry from Jessica Mauboy. ‘Sea of Flags’ is a little kitsch lyrically, but is nonetheless set to be another huge hit for Jess.
In addition, X Factor 2013 winner Dami Im finally follows up her platinum-selling #1 winner’s song with “Super Love”, and Melbourne production duo Jam Xpress are in the mix.
Set your alarm and tune into Rochén and Michael on the six at six for the newest songs to the mix, every weekday at 6am Melbourne time.
