United Kingdom | Raleigh Ritchie - "You're a man now, boy"

BRAND NEW

We are still in love with Raleigh Ritchie's single "Never better", which is surely one of our favorite songs of the year by now. So it was not a surprise that we also fell in love with his new release, "You're a man now, boy". It's another great track, with amazing ambience.

Sweden | Molly Hammar - "Hunger"

BRAND NEW

After the unfair result of 2015, Molly Hammar returned to Melodifestivalen this year with hunger for victory. Unfairly again, the odds weren't in her favour: her catchy and very contemporary entry, "Hunger", couldn't make it to the final of the competition. She still slayed with class and killer vocals in the live performance, leaving all of us with our jaws dropped!

Updated on July 5th, 2018, with the new stage name of the artist.
