Beaty Heart - Glazed
Built around some sweet falsetto-vocals, this is a gentle, touching little number with a heart at the centre of the indie-pop ballad. (6.5/10)
Black Star Riders - Testify Or Say Goodbye
'Testify or Say Goodbye' is another bouncy soft rock number with a catchy chorus. It's not as huge as some of their previous songs but it's still a good 'un. (6.5/10)
Camila Cabello and Machine Gun Kelly - Bad Things
An addictive mix of sweet and sexy pop chorus and slow rap verses, it's arguably Cabello's vocals that make this record and the lyrics are pretty shallow in their sultriness, but the overall mix works well. (7.5/10)
Fergie - Life Goes On
Slowing down her sound has made Fergie much more appealing in this smooth, surprisingly summery number. It doesn't have a huge USP but is fun in its peacefulness. (6.5/10)
James Arthur - Safe Inside
A vast improvement on his previous single, 'Safe Inside' is still a bit like a slurring drunken man singing karaoke but it's heartfelt enough to carry. (5/10)
Joseph - White Flag
'White Flag' is a really catchy pop-country song built around a fun and singable chorus and a smooth production of layered up music and vocals. Brilliant. (7.5/10)
Kiesza - Dearly Beloved
Much more poppy than her previous material, the verses may go on a little too long but it's a pleasing little pop number. (6/10)
Melanie C - Dear Life
The only Spice Girl to really have a decent post-band career, 'Dear Life' is less bombastic than we're used to from her but it's a great little pop-ballad with some thoughtful lyrics. (7/10)
Tony Momrelle - Love Me Again
'Love Me Life' is a funky and catchy little pop number delivered by his soulful voice. (6.5/10)
Yes Lad - Walk Away
The lyrics aren't the most thought-provoking but it's all wrapped up in punky energy that is well worth a spin. (6.5/10)
