18/12/2018

1 Comment

 
2018 has seen the release of many great singles, from Ariana Grande, to Bastille, to Years & Years - this year has been a good year for music. 

I decided to do a countdown of my top 10 songs from 2018. If you haven't listened to any of the songs mentioned, I highly recommend that you do!

10) ​Is That Alright? - ​Lady Gaga 

9) 
Quarter Past Midnight - Bastille 

8) If You're Over Me - Years & Years 

7) 2002 - Anne-Marie

6) Eastside - benny blanco (feating Halsey and Khalid)

5) High Hopes - Panic! At The Disco

4) No Tears Left To Cry - Ariana Grande 

3) Shotgun - ​George Ezra 

2) God is a Woman - ​Ariana Grande

1) Shallow - ​Lady Gaga & Bradley Cooper

If the music released in 2019 is half as good as 2018, it should be a good year!

BRIT Awards 2019 Performer Predictions

17/12/2018

0 Comments

 
It's getting to that time of year again...awards season. I love award shows like The BRIT Awards and the Grammys, because I love seeing artists getting recognition for their talents (although over the years, there have been some questionable winners!). I also love making my predictions about who will win and who will perform.

If you have read Pop Affairs in the past, you'll know that I love The BRIT Awards. I've been to every ceremony since 2014, and every year I like to make my predictions. When the nominees are announced I'll publish who I think will (or should) win, but for now I'm going to predict who will be performing on the night. 

Performer predictions:
  • Ariana Grande - Ariana has had a massive year, with thank u, next predicted to become the UK Christmas number one.
  • Lady Gaga - A Star Is Born was a hugely successful film all over the world, and  Shallow was loved by the public, making it Gaga's fifth number one in the UK. Although I doubt he would do it, I would also LOVE to see Bradley Cooper on stage with Gaga to sing Shallow!
  • The 1975 - No matter what The 1975 do, fans love it! Their new album, A Brief Inquiry Into Online Relationships, was released last month, so the BRITs could be a great place to celebrate that!
  • George Ezra - Shotgun was one of the biggest songs of the summer and I think will be recognised at the 2019 awards.
  • Little Mix - With the release of their new album, LM5, the BRITs stage would be a perfect place to promote their new music. 
  • Maroon 5 - Maroon 5 also had one of the biggest charting songs of 2018. Could Girls Like You (featuring Cardi B) make it to the BRIT Awards stage?
  • Take That (with Robbie Williams?)  - Take That have just released their latest album, Odyssey, featuring their greatest hits to celebrate their 30th anniversary. Ex-member Robbie Williams joined the band on stage at the X Factor final this month, and he is also rumoured to be joining Take That on some of the dates of their tour next year. Therefore, the BRITs stage would be a perfect place to not only promote their new tour, but also to celebrate 30 years!

I really hope some of my predictions are right, as I believe this would make for a great show! Hopefully performers are announced soon, and I'll be able to see just how right (or wrong...) I am. 

Let me know who you think will perform at the BRITs on Twitter (@Pop_Affairs)!

The BRIT Awards 2019 will be held at the O2 Arena on February 20th 2019.
