One of the most thrilling career trajectories that we’ve witnessed in the past decade goes to Dua Lipa. Before the age of 25, the British singer has quickly transformed into a confident, risk-taking pop star: after wooing us with her husky vocals and punchy pop singles on her 2017 self-titled debut album, Dua accelerated into one of the leaders of the current disco-pop revival, and has now returned with sophomore album Future Nostalgia.

With the UK on lockdown, a three-part tale appears to be emerging from the nation’s speakers right now as music lovers split between listening to uplifting classics, “apocalyptic” isolation songs and kids’ favourites, according to new Official Charts Company data.

Dua Lipa recently explained that she wants her new album, Future Nostalgia, to “sit alongside some of my favourite classic pop songs, whilst still feeling fresh and uniquely mine,” and perhaps nowhere is this more evident than on “Love Again.” The album’s 8th track features a prominent trumpet sample taken from a classic ‘90s UK hit: “Your Woman” by White Town.

Ace’s “How Long,” a No. 3 hit in 1975 for the British rock band, was the first single to introduce music audiences to the voice of Paul Carrack, who went on to become a vocalist for other influential groups like Squeeze and Mike & The Mechanics. And thanks to a buzzy new TV campaign from Amazon’s Prime and Echo Show tablet, Carrack’s first hit is finding a whole new audience.

UK pop star Dua Lipa was devastated to discover that her sophomore album, Future Nostalgia, leaked in full online nearly two weeks before its scheduled release date of Friday, April 3. She’s now moving up her entire rollout schedule and dropping the album this Friday, March 27. She announced the plans in a tearful Instagram Live:
