We navigate through a vast ocean of new songs every week, and this one certainly brought a wave of amazing new tunes our way. Twenty One Pilots and Charli XCX gave us a taste of their new albums, while Miley Cyrus and Pharrell Williams rocked our world with their latest collaboration.

After teasing their new era with several cryptic posts on social media, Twenty One Pilots finally confirmed they have new music on the way. Their new album Clancy is hitting the shelves in May, and the lead single “Overcompensate” did a great job welcoming us into this world.

Charli XCX also confirmed the release of her next album this week, developed under the cheeky title Brat. “Von Dutch” was released as the first single from the singer’s sixth studio album, and it sees her embracing her signature dance-pop sound.

This week was also pretty amazing for our favorite indie girlies. St. Vincent impressed us with “Broken Man”, Girl in Red teased her next album I’m Doing It Again Baby! with the new single “I’m Sorry…”, while Fletcher impressed us with her latest single “Doing Better”.

Our list also includes “Doctor (Work It Out)” by Pharrell Williams and Miley Cyrus, Olly Alexander’s Eurovision entry “Dizzy”, plus new songs by Kacey Musgraves, Chlöe, and Cage The Elephant.
