Rita Ora – New Look [Official Video]

If you’re looking for Western pop songs that can hype you up on a drive, I recommend Rita Ora’s “New Look.” You’ll see it right away from the music video—it features a car-themed visual.

The track itself is dance music that’s perfect for driving, and I think it’ll make your trip a lot more exciting as background music.

Rescue MeOneRepublic

OneRepublic – Rescue Me

This song, released in May 2019 after a year-long break by the popular band OneRepublic led by Ryan Tedder—whose songwriting talent has been highly praised, including for providing the Jonas Brothers’ “Sucker”—starts off with a calm impression but accelerates and bursts open in the chorus, making it a surefire hit.

The boy’s dance in the music video is another highlight.

The humor shines through as well, with extensive use of CGI partway through that suddenly shifts the tone to something more serious.

Would You EverSkrillex & Poo Bear

Skrillex & Poo Bear – Would You Ever (Official Music Video)

The golden duo Skrillex and Diplo, whose past collaborations have caused a huge stir, are back at it.

They reunite on this track with Poo Bear, with whom they’ve co-produced songs like “Where Are Ü Now (with Justin Bieber).” A hitmaker known for work such as Justin Bieber’s “What Do You Mean?,” Poo Bear makes his debut here as a recording artist.

In the released music video, both Skrillex and Poo Bear appear on screen, and the result is a highly satisfying track where dance and music come together perfectly.
