										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em><a href="https://highclouds.org/tag/charli-xcx/">Charli xcx</a></em>’s rock era is already doing what rock eras are supposed to do: divide, provoke, and refuse to smooth out the edges. After the culture bending rush of <em>Brat</em>, her new chapter began with the divisive &#8220;Rock Music&#8221;, a scrappy, abrasive pivot that split listeners almost on arrival. But <em>Charli</em> seems fully at peace with the friction. As she put it, “i’m not trying to repel people away or convince people into liking me. i’m doing what i feel is truthful to me.” That honesty feels like the real engine of this phase. Messier, darker, less concerned with consensus. And it is precisely this provocative, uncompromising, unsweetened energy that keeps <em>Charli</em> standing apart from the rest of the pop field.</p>
<p>Now, she deepens that world further with &#8220;SS26&#8221;, a grungy, fashion soaked new single that turns the runway into something closer to an apocalypse fantasy. In the <em>Torso</em> directed video, <em>Charli xcx</em> moves through the glamorous chaos of a major fashion show, changing looks, walking the catwalk, and watching the whole spectacle tilt toward disaster. Former Vogue Paris editor <em>Carine Roitfeld</em> appears in the front row and sets the tone with the line, “Fashion won’t save us. But let’s go on the runway and walk.” Abra also makes a cameo, while <em>Charli</em> leans into the track’s end of the world mood with the lyric “Walking on a runway that goes straight to hell.” It is stylish, strange, and sharply <em>Charli</em>: a pop star turning collapse into a look.</p>

					<description><![CDATA[Here are the Best Songs of 2025 according to the HighClouds team.]]></description>
										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>After unveiling our <a href="https://highclouds.org/the-best-eps-albums-and-mixtapes-of-2025/">Best Albums of the Year</a> a few days ago, we&#8217;re now happy to share the individual tracks that stayed with us, soundtracked our days, and quietly refused to let go over the last 12 months. As always, this list is a living thing: the ranking could change every day, and a few last-minute gems released in December made their way in at the very end, because great songs don’t care about deadlines.</p>
<p>True to the HighClouds spirit, we’ve once again tried to shine a light on overlooked releases and new or under-the-radar artists alongside some more familiar names. And yes… for the second year the same artist is topping our Best Songs list. At this point, it’s safe to say we’re obsessed. All of the tracks featured here (and many others) are also gathered in our Spotify playlist, that you can find below.</p>
<p>Thank you for reading, listening, and sharing music with us throughout 2025. We wish you a beautiful end of the year, and we’ll be back very soon in 2026 to share even more amazing music with you.</p>

					<description><![CDATA[“Chains of Love” is taken from Charli xcx's Wuthering Heights soundtrack, out on February 13.]]></description>
										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em><a href="https://highclouds.org/tag/charli-xcx/">Charli xcx</a></em> is stepping into a whole new world with the <em>Wuthering Heights</em> soundtrack, and she’s just dropped a second new single to tease it: “Chains of Love.” The first one, &#8220;House,&#8221; featuring <em><a href="https://highclouds.org/tag/john-cale/">John Cale</a></em>, was released a few days ago.</p>
<p>The project grew out of her work on <em>Emerald Fennell</em>’s new adaptation of the classic <em>Emily Brontë</em> novel. <em>Charli</em> said she called <em>Fennell</em> to ask what she wanted from her after reading the script, and <em>Fennell</em> “coyly suggested ‘A song?’” <em>Charli</em> pushed that even further: “I suggested ‘An album?’ because why not?” From there, she dove head-first into a mood she describes as “raw, wild, sexual, gothic, British, tortured.&#8221; Basically a whole dramatic universe far from the life she was living at the time. “I was fucking IN,” she wrote.</p>
<p>And while plenty of pop artists are currently racing to bottle the electro-clash spark of Brat, <em>Charli xcx</em> is already off exploring an entirely new landscape, one that dips into darker territory and brushes up against the kind of goth-tinged, noise-leaning intensity you’d hear from <em><a href="https://highclouds.org/tag/ethel-cain/">Ethel Cain</a></em>.</p>
<p>She made most of the album with longtime collaborator <em><a href="https://highclouds.org/tag/finn-keane/">Finn Keane</a></em> (formerly <em><a href="https://highclouds.org/tag/easyfun/">Easyfun</a></em>). The two worked with a guiding phrase they loved from <em>John Cale</em>: everything should feel both “elegant and brutal.” <em>Keane</em> even joined her on tour so they could carve out studio time almost every day.</p>
<p>“Chains of Love” reflects that exact spirit. It’s a big, emotional track built on cinematic strings and warped electronic textures, yet anchored by a simple, heartfelt melody. <em>Charli</em>’s filtered vocals still manage to feel deeply human, giving the whole thing a kind of romantic ache.</p>
<div class="mauer-narrator-wp-embed-wrapper"><iframe title="&quot;Wuthering Heights&quot; | Official Trailer" width="1170" height="658" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/3fLCdIYShEQ?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe></div>
<p><em>Charli xcx</em>&#8216;s new song also appears in the trailer for the <em>Wuthering Heights</em> film, where it sets the tone perfectly for the intense world she’s helping bring to life. February 13 can’t come soon enough.</p>

					<description><![CDATA[Here are the 15 best songs by Charli XCX, one of the most innovative pop artists of the decade. Five]]></description>
										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h4 align="justify"><strong>Here are the 15 best songs by <em>Charli XCX</em>, one of the most innovative pop artists of the decade.</strong></h4>
<p align="justify">Five studio albums, two EPs and four mixtapes into her career, <em><a href="https://highclouds.org/tag/charli-xcx/">Charli XCX</a></em> has found her niche as a pop trailblazer who occasionally achieves mainstream success. But it wasn’t always this way. In fact, few pop stars in recent memory have traversed career paths as unconventional as <em>Charli XCX</em>’s. At age 30, <em>Charlotte Emma Aitchison</em> has gone from prospective worldwide icon/teen fave who first found stardom as a featured artist to underrated underground artiste who was reinventing pop music – and back. It really is a lot.</p>
<p align="justify">To help tell the story of her career, we’ve chosen what we believe are the best 15 <em>Charli XCX</em> songs as a lead performer (no “I Love It”, sorry) – all while explaining the role they played in her career path. If you don’t agree with the below ranking, please direct all your complaints and death threats to my editor. A less violent option is to share your own ranking with us – you do you!</p>
<p align="justify">Without further ado, these are the 15 best <em>Charli XCX</em> songs:</p>
<h3 align="justify">15. &#8220;Stay Away&#8221; (from <em>True Romance</em>)</h3>
<p align="justify">Back in 2011, <em>Charli XCX</em>’s music career was at a standstill. She had just signed to <em>Asylum Records</em>, a label operating under <em>Warner Bros</em>. that had also recently snatched <em>Cee Lo Green</em> and a little ginger fella called <em>Ed Sheeran</em>. In an attempt to kickstart her career, <em>Asylum</em> flew <em>Charli</em> to L.A., where she would go through many fruitless recording sessions with a wide array of different producers. Only one of them clicked. It was <em>Ariel Rechtshaid</em>, whose most flattering producing credits at the time included bottom-of-the-barrel indie landfill acts such as <em>We Are Scientists</em> and <em>The Blood Arm</em>.</p>
<p align="justify">And yet it was that unlikely partnership that turned <em>Charli</em> into the global star she is today. In their first two-hour writing session, <em>Rechtshaid</em> and <em>Charli</em> co-wrote “Stay Away”, which would become one of the highlights of her debut album <em>True Romance</em>. Very much a product of its time, “Stay Away” is a cold, witch-house-influenced pop song with a bizarre half-rapped-half-spoken-word verse that <em>Charli</em> somehow sells with a straight face. Although it failed to make a dent in the charts, the song made the artist a critical darling, with <em>Pitchfork</em> granting it <em>Best New Track</em> status.</p>

<h3 align="justify">14. &#8220;Boys&#8221; (stand-alone single)</h3>
<p align="justify">Intended to be the second single from a third studio album that never happened, “Boys” was released to critical acclaim in July 2017. Featuring a less abrasive sound than her last two releases (the <em><a href="https://highclouds.org/tag/sophie/">SOPHIE</a></em>-produced <em>Vroom Vroom</em> EP and <em>Number 1 Angel</em>, a mixtape enlisting the help of most <em>PC Music</em> producers), “Boys” is a quirky and charming pop song whose main hook is a <em>Super Mario Bros.</em> sample – which is extremely effective, by the way. With its catchy, meme-ready chorus, “Boys” really should have been a hit, yet it peaked at 31 in the UK Singles Chart and was nowhere to be seen in the US charts. It wouldn’t be particularly surprising if it made a resurgence as some sort of <em>TikTok</em> trend I don’t even want to understand.</p>

<h3 align="justify">13. &#8220;Boom Clap&#8221; (from <em>Sucker</em>)</h3>
<p align="justify">First released as the lead song from a soppy teen romance, “Boom Clap” is <em>Charli XCX</em>’s first proper hit on her own. It made the top 10 in both the UK and the USA – an impressive feat for an artist whose previous singles have failed to chart significantly. “Boom Clap” is far from being <em>Charli</em>’s most adventurous moment, but it’s an outstanding pop song in its own right. You could even argue that this is her version of a late-70s butt-rock song: the song-writing is painted-by-numbers anonymous chart pop, but its cranked-up-to-eleven performance is so fun that one can’t help but join the sing-along. Originally offered to <em>Hillary Duff</em>, “Boom Clap” paints a world where <em>Charli XCX</em> hangs out with <em>Max Martin</em> and <em>Mark Ronson</em> instead of <em>SOPHIE</em> and <em><a href="https://highclouds.org/tag/a-g-cook/">A.G. Cook</a></em>. It was actually produced by <em>Stefan Gräslund</em> as well as <em>Patrick Berger</em>, whose name is also associated to <em><a href="https://highclouds.org/tag/robyn/">Robyn</a></em>&#8216;s “Dancing On My Own.”</p>

<h3 align="justify">12. &#8220;Backseat&#8221; ft. <em>Carly Rae Jepsen</em> (from <em>Pop 2</em>)</h3>
<p align="justify">For the opening track of her magnum opus <em>Pop 2</em>, <em>Charli XCX</em> enlisted the help of the only pop star more criminally underrated than her by that point. Fresh off the heels of the critical success of <em>Emotion</em> and <em>Emotion Side B</em>, the perennially starry-eyed <em><a href="https://highclouds.org/tag/carly-rae-jepsen/">Carly Rae Jepsen</a></em> pops up in this futuristic ballad produced by <em><a href="https://highclouds.org/tag/easyfun/">easyFun</a></em> and <em>A.G. Cook</em>. <em>Carly</em>’s clear and passionate soprano vocals mark a stark contrast with <em>Charli</em>’s heavily-autotuned voice, adding even more power to a soul-stirring song that riffs off a common pop trope: partying and sex as an imperfect antidote for heart malaise.</p>
<div class="mauer-narrator-wp-embed-wrapper"><iframe loading="lazy" title="Charli XCX - Backseat (feat.

<h3 align="justify">11. &#8220;ILY2&#8221; (from <em>Number 1 Angel</em>)</h3>
<p align="justify">This is one of the few <em>Charli XCX</em> songs that succeeds in finding a middle point between her two worlds – the big label product who can’t quite make it to the pop star A-list and the visionary pop savant whose wildest experiments are loudly cheered on by fans and critics alike. Produced by <em><a href="https://highclouds.org/tag/danny-l-harle/">Danny L Harle</a></em>, “ILY2” is an electro-pop banger that sits in the middle of <em>Number 1 Angel</em>, <em>Charli</em>’s third mixtape. “ILY2” anticipates the late-2010s/early-2020s hyper-pop trend of appropriating corny rock trope – see the <em>Scorpions</em>-like guitar lick plus solo in the bridge, or the chugging power chords that flesh out the chorus further than what its minimalistic backbone could possibly do. Aided by <em>Harle</em>’s pristine production (it’s impossible not to be in awe of that playful synth line in the pre-chorus), this could have been a massive hit single if marketed properly.</p>

<h3 align="justify">10. &#8220;Lipgloss&#8221; ft. <em>CupcakKe</em> (from <em>Number 1 Angel</em>)</h3>
<p align="justify">Featuring one of the raunchiest artists to ever come close to a mic in pop history, “Lipgloss” is <em>Charli XCX</em> at her hyper-pop best: singing about wet genitals over a harsh electronic base courtesy of <em>SOPHIE</em> and <em>A.G. Cook</em>. It also features one of the <em>CupcakKE</em>-est <em>CupcakKe</em> lyrics ever: “More flavour than Flavor Flav / My pussy is very brave.” The whole thing is a lot of fun, but it’s also much more than that – a blueprint for later albums, its instrumental bears witness to <em>Charli</em>’s turn to an edgier and more experimental production style.</p>
<div class="mauer-narrator-wp-embed-wrapper"><iframe loading="lazy" title="Charli XCX - Lipgloss feat. cupcakKe [Official Audio]" width="1170" height="658" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/U3wSBK6xiXs?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe></div>
<h3 align="justify">9. &#8220;Next Level Charli&#8221; (from <em>Charli</em>)</h3>
<p align="justify">The received wisdom around <em>Charli XCX</em> is that her mixtapes contain most of her best work while her big-label studio records are always a bit of let-down. There’s definitely some truth to that. <em>Charli</em>’s third-studio album was released in September 2019 under the extremely blunt title <em>Charli</em> – perhaps a much-expected turn to sincerity after having made the most out of the glossy veneer of her recent mixtapes? Well, not quite. <em>Charli</em> isn’t a bad record by any means, but it feels weirdly impersonal and voiceless – and it definitely doesn’t come close to the potential sketched out on <em>Pop 2</em> and <em>Vroom Vroom</em>.</p>
<p align="justify">That being said, there are a handful of tracks on the album that rank among her best work. One of them is the first track of the record, “Next Level Charli” – one of the few songs on <em>Charli</em> written only by <em>Charli</em> and frequent producer <em>A.G. Cook</em>. With an ominous synth acting as an initial bang, this is more of an introduction than a proper, fully fleshed-out song. Slightly OTT on the self-referencing department but incredibly effective as a melody, “Next Level Charli” is basically <em>Charli XCX</em> emulating the <em>Paul McCartney</em> of “Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band” or “Magical Mystery Tour”. Its only verse is repeated almost a dozen times, and yet the song feels like it should be at least twice as long. How is it possible? Well, it&#8217;s <em>Charli</em> baby.</p>
<div class="mauer-narrator-wp-embed-wrapper"><iframe loading="lazy" title="Charli XCX - Next Level Charli [Official Audio]" width="1170" height="658" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/8mhfE_vzwjo?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe></div>
<h3 align="justify">8. &#8220;Forever&#8221; (from <em>How I&#8217;m Feeling Now</em>)</h3>
<p align="justify">Marketed as a studio album in spite of its DIY nature, <em>Charli XCX</em>’s fourth LP <em>how I’m feeling now</em> will go down in history as the first pandemic record by a big-ticket pop artist. <em>Charli</em> wrote, recorded and released the entire album in less than two months – a heavy contrast with the three-year rollout of a major label release. And yet there might be an argument for it as the definitive <em>Charli XCX</em> release. <em>how I’m feeling now</em> is a straight-to-the-bone, no-filler-all-killer album with <em>Charli</em> reining the overindulgences that had hampered some of her previous work.</p>
<p align="justify">Arguably her most heartfelt song to date, “Forever” is a mature love letter to a partner, a declaration of eternal love that goes beyond the natural ebbs and flow of a relationship. Its earnest lyricism and glitchy production earned it a few comparisons with fellow <em>PC Music</em> member <em><a href="https://highclouds.org/tag/hannah-diamond/">Hannah Diamond</a></em> – and not without reason. Like <em>Diamond</em>’s best songs, “Forever” is a simple, infectious song whose main objective is to reignite feelings that you thought you’d kept buried in adolescence.</p>
<div class="mauer-narrator-wp-embed-wrapper"><iframe loading="lazy" title="Charli XCX - forever [Official Video]" width="1170" height="658" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/TbJE-KVZvTA?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe></div>
<h3 align="justify">7. &#8220;Lightning&#8221; (from <em>Crash</em>)</h3>
<p align="justify"><em>Charli XCX</em> had to wait more than ten years to get a number one album in the UK. <em>Crash</em>, her fifth studio album and last one under her record contract with <em>Atlantic Records</em>, sees the British singer ditch her art-house credentials for a more straightforward dance-pop approach. For the most part, the experiment doesn’t pay off. <em>Crash</em> is fine, but not a lot more than that. It’s a weirdly anonymous record – one that could’ve been made by any pop star with the budget to enlist a dozen of different producers and thirty different writers. It’s not an unpleasant listen by any means, but it’s hard not to write it off as an end-of-contract fulfilment rather than a true artistic statement.</p>
<p align="justify">Perhaps unsurprisingly, <em>Crash</em>’s best moment comes precisely when <em>Charli</em> goes back to her roots. The only song on the record produced by long-time collaborator <em>Ariel Rechtshaid</em>, “Lightning” is a new wave hit propelled by thundering drums and an infectious synth line. Not even bizarre production decisions (like the wildly out-of-place classic guitar or a four-minute running time that doesn’t do the song any favours) can stop “Lightning” from being one of <em>Charli</em>’s best songs.</p>
<div class="mauer-narrator-wp-embed-wrapper"><iframe loading="lazy" title="Charli XCX - Lightning [Official Visualiser]" width="1170" height="658" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/RJTv1KZrbuQ?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe></div>
<h3 align="justify">6. &#8220;Gone&#8221; ft. <em>Christine and the Queens</em> (from <em>Charli</em>)</h3>
<p align="justify">Her first collaboration with <em><a href="https://highclouds.org/tag/christine-and-the-queens/">Christine and the Queens</a></em>, “Gone” was smartly picked to be the third single off <em>Charli</em>. Fuelled by romantic doubts and insecurities, “Gone” is basically <em>Charli</em>’s version of a sad pop ballad – and by ballad <em>Charli</em> means an epic metallic-tinged song with a 114 BPM. Produced by <em>A.G. Cook</em> and <em>Lotus IV</em>, it features relatively minimalistic instrumentation, with an industrial bass working hand in hand with the percussive metallic pangs popping in and out of scene. Mirroring <em>Charli</em>’s growing despair as expressed in the heated pathos of her vocals, the instrumental becomes more complex as the song reaches its final point – a glitchy outro that wouldn’t have felt out of place on <em>Pop 2</em>.</p>
<div class="mauer-narrator-wp-embed-wrapper"><iframe loading="lazy" title="Charli XCX &amp; Christine and the Queens - Gone [Official Video]" width="1170" height="658" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/chSZCtLrgz8?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe></div>
<h3 align="justify">5. &#8220;Nuclear Seasons&#8221; (from <em>True Romance</em>)</h3>
<p align="justify">Co-written with <em>Ariel Rechtshaid</em>, “Nuclear Reasons” is the first great <em>Charli XCX</em> song. It’s also extremely baffling – in a good way. I mean, to start with, the song’s main hook is an <em>Aqua</em>-like “oh-ah-oh” backing vocal that stands out like a sore thumb against the darkwave-inspired instrumental. A clear sign of what was to come, this is an extremely busy and fidgety song – one that is never happy to tread the same path for more than 30 seconds. “Nuclear Seasons” is the sonic representation of a nervous kid jumping from one song to another whilst browsing an eclectic yet carefully curated music library that somehow includes both <em>Cold Cave</em> and <em>Britney Spears</em>. Intelligently tacked on to <em>Charli</em>’s first studio album, this is arguably her best non-PC music song.</p>
<div class="mauer-narrator-wp-embed-wrapper"><iframe loading="lazy" title="Charli XCX - Nuclear Seasons [Official Video]" width="1170" height="658" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/TGmM2l39LEs?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe></div>
<h3 align="justify">4. &#8220;Anthems&#8221; (from <em>How I&#8217;m Feeling Now</em>)</h3>
<p align="justify">Of all the great songs on <em>how I’m feeling now</em> (and there’s loads), none of them hits the brief as perfectly as “Anthems”. Co-produced by <em><a href="https://highclouds.org/tag/100-gecs/">100 Gecs</a></em>’ <em>Dylan Brady</em> and inspired by the teen comedy “Project X”, “Anthems” does what it says on the tin – it’s a manic party anthem that could turn a wake into a rave in a matter of seconds. Written a few weeks into Covid lockdown, this is <em>Charli XCX</em> at her best, an edgy but unpretentious adrenaline shot coupled with an infectious chorus. It’s bound to remain a DJ set staple for decades to come.</p>
<div class="mauer-narrator-wp-embed-wrapper"><iframe loading="lazy" title="Charli XCX - anthems [Official Audio]" width="1170" height="658" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/E6oq5HCzG4c?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe></div>
<h3 align="justify">3. &#8220;Unlock It&#8221; ft. <em>Kim Petras</em> and <em>Jay Park</em> (from <em>Pop 2</em>)</h3>
<p align="justify">Hot take: no artist in the past decade has released more high-octane pop bangers than <em>Charli XCX</em>. And “Unlock It” might easily be the best one. Produced by <em>A.G. Cook</em>, “Unlock It” is built on an incessant looped vocal hook that has the same effect as ingesting 2kgs of pure sugar in one sitting. The song operates on a similar plain as “Vroom Vroom” or “Next Level Charli”, with Futurism-inspired lyrics about going fast, kissing hard, and getting high sung over a bubbly instrumental that peaks with its rumpled, cathartic end. Including a great feature from <em><a href="https://highclouds.org/tag/kim-petras/">Kim Petras</a></em> and an out-of-place-but-fun verse by Jay Park, “Unlock It” can teach us all a very valuable lesson – sometimes the batshit crazy choices are the ones that work best.</p>

<h3 align="justify">2. &#8220;Vroom Vroom&#8221; (from <em>Vroom Vroom EP</em>)</h3>
<p align="justify">The biggest turning point in <em>Charli</em>’s career, “Vroom Vroom” will always be remembered for being one of the songs that put the trailblazer producer <em>SOPHIE</em> in the spotlight. And for good reason. Up to that point, <em>SOPHIE</em> had released her fair share of bangers – including 2013’s “Bipp”, which was already rightfully considered one of the best pop singles of the decade. But “Vroom Vroom” was something else. It was messy and chaotic, and yet at its heart was a pop sensibility that brought it closer to the mainstream it was trying to tear apart. Simply put, no other producer has ever got more out of <em>Charli XCX</em>.</p>
<p align="justify">“Vroom Vroom” is unstoppable, a hedonistic whirlwind comprised of dozens of influences (from UK bass to trap) all crammed into a blender. Atop it all sits <em>Charli</em>, whose swaggering braggadocio and questionable lyricism (“ice cubes on our tongues ‘cos we like to keep it freezy”) are the sonic representation of a <em>Harmony Korine</em> film: is this for real, or is it all a joke? And if it is a joke, then why am I so moved?</p>
<div class="mauer-narrator-wp-embed-wrapper"><iframe loading="lazy" title="Charli XCX - Vroom Vroom [Official Video]" width="1170" height="658" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/qfAqtFuGjWM?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe></div>
<h3 align="justify">1. &#8220;Track 10&#8221; (from <em>Pop 2</em>)</h3>
<p align="justify">“Track 10” is such a perfect song that <em>Charli XCX</em> saw no problem in re-hashing it for her self-titled album as the edgeless <em><a href="https://highclouds.org/tag/lizzo/">Lizzo</a></em> collab “Blame It On Your Love”. True, “Blame It On Your Love” was supposedly recorded before “Track 10”, but surely <em>Charli</em> and her team knew that it would always pale in comparison with “Track 10”, right? Right?? Anyway, the god-awful <em>Lizzo</em> version died a sweet and fast death – it peaked at no. 70 in the UK charts before vanishing into the ether of songs that should’ve never existed.</p>
<p align="justify">But that’s enough digression. As the closing track on <em>Pop 2</em>, “Track 10” wraps the project up with a neat summation of its aesthetics: emotional sincerity expressed through heavily auto-tuned vocals, a continuous back-and-forth between the low-key and the OTT, and cathartic throw-everything-to-the-wall-and-see-what-sticks moments where everything sticks. You might not think that it’s the best thing she’s ever made, (although you’d be dead wrong), but there’s little to no doubt that “Track 10” is the ultimate <em>Charli XCX</em> song, for now.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h4 align="justify"><strong>“Good Ones” is the lead single of <em>Charli XCX</em>’s new album, expected to be released in 2022.</strong></h4>
<p align="justify">Over the last years, <em><a href="https://highclouds.org/tag/charli-xcx/">Charli XCX</a></em> has become the poster girl of the hyperpop scene with four iconic mixtapes and one album. Actually, she became so close to the <em>PC Music</em> constellation that some of us almost forgot that she has a major deal and that she probably has to release more commercial releases, in the vein of her polarizing record <em>Sucker</em>. By introducing her new era with a funeral theme (there&#8217;s a grave with &#8220;March 2022&#8221; written on it &#8211; maybe the end of her contract?) and a <a href="https://twitter.com/charli_xcx/status/1424415556724088837" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">mysterious tweet</a> (RIP hyperpop?), the English singer-songwriter sets the tone: the underground <em>Charli XCX</em> is gone -“I have to go, I’m so sorry”- and leaves room for <em>Charli</em> the popstar. So far, her conquest of the mainstream has been pretty limited though and it’s quite surprising as she’s such a respected artist and a real icon for the queer youth.</p>
<p align="justify">Arguably one of her most straightforward singles to date, “Good Ones” channels the synthpop and 80s revival recently initiated by <em>Dua Lipa</em> and <em>The Weeknd</em>. Luckily, she’s dodged the boring popular trend of fake lo-fi and melancholy bedroom pop. Here, she goes for heavy “Sweet Dreams” vibes and explores her romantic flaws and self-sabotage in merely 2 minutes. While “Good Ones” is definitely not her best track, it’s not a bad thing for her to add this pop moment to her catalogue &#8211; she deserves the star treatment. She also came up with a great video, directed by <em>Hannah Lux Davis</em>, in which she showcases, more than with the track, her creativity and offbeat universe. It’s decided: I want Charli to dance on my dead body at my funeral.</p>

					<description><![CDATA[HighClouds present their favourite EPs and mixtapes of 2020. Let’s not beat about the bush: 2020 was the worst year]]></description>
										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h4 align="justify"><strong>HighClouds present their favourite EPs and mixtapes of 2020.</strong></h4>
<p align="justify">Let’s not beat about the bush: 2020 was the worst year of my life and I think it might be the case for a lot of people around. As a music fan, not being able to attend any concerts, seeing some of my favourite venues and festivals endangered and reading that up and coming talents are struggling more than ever has been a big bummer. I’m not even mentioning all the emails starting with “hope you are well during these strange times”. Well, guess what? We aren’t!</p>
<p align="justify">Even if we have spent most of our time locked at home, streaming more music than ever, not sure the smallest DIY artists will see the difference when they’ll receive their royalty revenues. All of that to say that artists need you more than ever. As we always repeat it, streaming is good but it’s not enough. Buy your vinyls, cassettes and merch and so on on Bandcamp special days (so they get 100% of the amount) or via your local record store (yes, they’re also having a hard time), attend virtual shows or, even better, send direct tips to the artists.</p>
<p align="justify">Some good news, though: 2020 has been pretty amazing music-wise. While it’s not always easy to support everything or to keep up with all the weekly releases, our staff tried their best to introduce you to some promising up and coming talents and bring the best new music to your ears throughout the last 12 months. Today, we are presenting our favourite EPs and mixtapes of 2020, with some obvious picks and a few overlooked discoveries to keep an eye on in the future. Thank you for reading us. Hope you enjoy and discover some cool new stuff. You can also check our <a href="https://highclouds.org/best-albums-of-2020/">Best Albums</a> and <a href="https://highclouds.org/best-tracks-of-2020/">Best Tracks</a> selection.</p>
