Our top ten tunes of the week – November 23
Here are the songs that have been getting us going over the past few days:
1. Alex The Astronaut – Happy Song
Here’s the new clip from one of our absolute favourites! Alex says of the video: “I made this while I was touring in London, it was the funniest day. It was a Sunday and we were in our costumes all day, people gave us some very strange looks. I think the idea of it is sometimes people can run around like cat and mouse but sometimes something as simple as music can bring them together. Lots of kids were scared of the cat but thought it was hilarious when he chased me down the street, I think it was like a real-life Tom and Jerry for them”.
2. Banoffee- Bubble
After performing in Charli XCX’s band across the global Taylor Swift Reputation tour and curating three sold out Australian parties with Charli XCX, the Melbourne-born, LA-based multidisciplinary artist has dropped her new single and accompanying video.
