Uncharted: Has Hailee Steinfeld penned radio’s next soundtrack hit?
Hailee Steinfeld – ‘Back To Life’ (REP/UMA)
Taken from her upcoming film Bumblebee, Hailee Steinfeld’s new banger has all the potential of a dance floor hit. Following in the footsteps of Lady Gaga & Bradley Cooper’s ‘Shallow’, Post Malone’s ‘Sunflower’ and many more, TMN believes ‘Back To Life’ can be the next single from a movie soundtrack to succeed at radio. The 21-year old’s most recent single ‘Let Me Go’ alongside Florida Georgia Line has racked up 50 weeks on the TMN Hot 100.
Ava Max – ‘Sweet But Psycho’ (ATL/WMA)
Ava Max’s ‘Sweet But Pyscho’ is benefitting from prominent playlist placement across the world, and officially makes its way to Aus radio after more than two months of release. Added to Hit105 Brisbane last week, the infectious pop single has the potential to make a big impact on commercial playlists this week. The single boasts nearly 44 million global streams on Spotify, and counting.
Carly Rae Jepsen – ‘Party For One’ (IGA/UMA)
‘Party For One’ is the first taste of pop queen Carly Rae Jepsen‘s yet-to-be-named 2019 album, and we like what we’re hearing. Not since 2012’s ‘Good Time’ (#4) with Owl City has Jepsen risen to the top bracket on the Hot 100. Grammy-nominated smash ‘Call Me Maybe’ was #1 for eight consecutive weeks on the airplay chart and climbed to #1 on the iTunes Singles chart in over 47 countries.
