Christmas Round-up 2: https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2018/12/christmas-round-up-2.html

Today's post features some new songs for Christmas 2019. :)


Mabel- Loneliest Time Of Year

I featured this new Christmas song from Mabel as this week's Weekly Music Video: https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2019/12/weekly-music-video_18.html


BoA feat. Crush- Starry Night

Next up is Starry Night, a winter themed love song by popular Korean singer BoA and featuring Crush. It's from BoA's new mini album of the same name which was released on 11th December.

The song is in Korean and the video is set in New York at Christmas. Click "Subtitles/closed captions" while watching on YouTube to see English subtitles! :)



THEO (Zhu Zhengting)- The Winter Light

This a winter song from THEO (real name Zhu Zhengting), former member of Chinese boyband Nine Percent and leader of C-pop boyband NEX7.* It's in Chinese (not sure which language, maybe Mandarin?).

This isn't a new song or an actual Christmas one, but more about the season of winter I think, so I've included it. :) It's an audio and was released in January.




Kelly Rowland- Love You More At Christmas Time

Kelly Rowland (member of now disbanded American girl group Destiny's Child turned solo singer) has a new single for the festive season called Love You More at Christmas Time. It's a chilled, R'n'B song. This is an audio and it was uploaded on 22nd November.



Also check out Destiny's Child's classic 8 Days of Christmas music video (well, modern classic!): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MKdndMXIVXw

JoJo- The Christmas Song

Finally American singer JoJo has released her own version of  the classic The Christmas Song, exclusively on Amazon Music.


Not Christmas related but you can find another recent song by JoJo here: https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2019/10/new-jlo-and-jojo-music.html


Update 23/12/19: Just came across this today and had to add it because Mariah is my favourite singer! :)

Mariah Carey- All I Want for Christmas Is You (Make My Wish Come True Edition)

American singer Mariah Carey has made a new music video for her famous song All I Want For Christmas Is You which premiered on 19th December. To celebrate the 25th anniversary of the release of her first Christmas album she has released a new 2-CD Deluxe Anniversary Edition, which is available now. The original song has only just reached No. 1 in the US Billboard Hot 100 Charts! I thought it would have got to No. 1 before now.

The video features a little girl discovering Mariah's magical Christmas world, and her twins Moroccan and Monrore ("DemBabies") also make an appearance.

25th Anniversary of Mariah Carey's Butterfly Album

My favourite singer Mariah Carey recently released a 25th anniversary edition of her 6th studio album Butterfly. The original album was released on 16th September 1997 and featured songs such as her hit single Honey, The Roof and My All. It was actually the first album I ever bought (on cassette tape, lol) and I still consider it one of my fave MC albums. :) Butterfly was the first album that Mariah had more control over and it is R'n'B, rather than the pop (and later pop/R'n'B) of her previous releases. It also has pop and hip hop influences.  The expanded edition contain 8 extra tracks (the original standard edition has 12)- a duet version of Whenever You Call with Brian McKnight , a new take on The Roof featuring Brandy , live versions of Butterfly and My All, acapella versions of Fourth of July and Outside, an Amorphous Anniversary Club Mix of Butterfly (with DJ Amorphous ) and a remix of Honey (Another Taste of Honey David Morales Mix). I had previously heard the

Debut XG Mini Album

Japanese girl group XG have released their 1st mini album. It's called NEW DNA and was released on 27th September. XG (whose name is short for Xtraordinary Girls) made their debut in March last year and have brought out 7 singles so far- Tippy Toes, MASCARA, LEFT RIGHT/SHOOTING STAR double single), GVRL GANG , TGIF, NEW DANCE and PUPPET SHOW. The first 3 songs (or 4 including the double single) aren't on the mini album. The concept behind NEW DNA is that of being a "new species" free from conventions and limitations .  Although the group is Japanese, their creation was inspired by Korean music and they are based in South Korea. They have released songs in English so far and have been described as a global group and "X-pop". NEW DNA consists of 6 tracks- HESONO, X-GENE, GVRL GANG, TGIF, NEW DANCE and PUPPET SHOW. It is an R'n'B/pop mini album with influences from other genres, such as K-pop, dance and hip hop. My favourite song is PUPPET SHOW. I al
