Listen to this week\u2019s YouTube Music playlist here.<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n

Avril Lavigne<\/a>, \u201cTell Me It\u2019s Over\u201d
<\/strong>Sounds like:<\/strong> A former pop-punk princess all grown up<\/span>
<\/span>Perfect for:<\/strong> Completely checking out of a relationship
<\/span>Avril Lavigne is priming herself \u2014 and us \u2014 for a big, surprising 2019 comeback. The soulful, Billie Holiday-inspired \u201cTell Me It\u2019s Over\u201d is the second new song we\u2019ve heard off her sixth album,<\/span> Head Above Water<\/span><\/em>, and it shows a different side of Lavigne than the redemption narrative of the title track. After years of battling Lyme Disease, Lavigne seems more than ready to remind the world that she\u2019s the motherfucking princess.<\/span><\/p>\n

Ariana Grande<\/a>, \u201cImagine\u201d
<\/strong>Sounds like:<\/strong> A pop diva at the undisputable top of her game<\/span>
<\/span>Perfect for: \u00a0<\/strong>Making the case for a chill night in
<\/span>While \u201cthank u, next\u201d continues its unmatched domination as we head into the new year, Ariana Grande has dropped another preview of her impromptu follow-up to her August LP<\/span> Sweetener<\/span><\/em>. \u201cImagine\u201d has her wondering what it would be like to be with her love in a simpler timeline, one where they can just chill in the tub and eat pad thai. The song\u2019s already a bop, but just wait until she hits that whistle register.<\/span><\/p>\n

PrettyMuch, \u201cJello\u201d
<\/strong>Sounds like:<\/strong> The ideal slice of boy band pop fun<\/span>
<\/span>Perfect for:<\/strong> Showing off your word play
<\/span>Here\u2019s a little sugary sweet pop bliss: Emerging boy band PrettyMuch have debuted the wiggly, fun \u201cJello\u201d as their new single. First heard on their Funktion tour this fall, \u201cJello\u201d is a goofy, playful and cute little tune where the boys celebrate a girl who can \u201ccall the shots\u201d and get them \u201cweak in the knees\u201d like the aforementioned gelatinous dessert.<\/span><\/p>\n

Neil Young<\/a>, \u201cToo Far Gone\u201d
<\/strong>Sounds like:<\/strong> A lively, restless memory of a bygone era<\/span>
<\/span>Perfect for:<\/strong> Dedicating some songs to the one and only Judy Garland
<\/span>Neil Young recently unearthed a collection of his November 1976 live performances for an album called<\/span> Songs for Judy<\/span><\/em>. It\u2019s Young at his peak, and these particular performances capture him during the solo acoustic sets that prefaced a much heavier, rollicking performance with his band Crazy Horse. \u201cToo Far Gone\u201d is from a Boulder, Colorado show; the singer-songwriter sounds young, wild and free as he regales a tale of a chance romantic meeting at a bar, singing about drugs and booze to jovial cheers from the audience.<\/span><\/p>\n

Bad Bunny<\/a>, \u201cSolo de Mi\u201d
<\/strong>Sounds like:<\/strong> An instant classic from one of Latin trap\u2019s most exciting new stars<\/span>
<\/span>Perfect for:<\/strong> Preparing for Bad Bunny\u2019s total takeover of 2019
<\/span>Bad Bunny is ready to take over the world. Just listen to his latest single \u201cSolo de Mi,\u201d a languid rejection of toxic relationships that celebrates putting yourself first. In the final minute, however, he pulls a fast one, shifting the beat to an adrenaline-rushing BPM, raising the stakes and making the track his best and most unforgettable yet.<\/span><\/p>\n
