Readers of That Grape Juice know how passionate we are about music – whether that be past or present.

However, unlike our other segments – Retro Rewind, TGJ Replay, and From The Vault – The Pop Stop is the most in-depth look at Pop songs that may have flown under the radar over the last week that you should know, rather they be from music’s biggest stars or those on the rise.

This week, we want to highlight cuts from Panic! At The Disco, Maren Morris and Zedd, New Hope Club, and Sara Kays.

Join us inside…

Panic! At The Disco – Don’t Let The Light Go Out

Pop-rock band Panic! At The Disco is back with their latest single, ‘Don’t Let The Light Go Out.’ A blend of searing rock guitars, twangy pedal steel, and a pop melody, ‘Don’t Let the Light Go Out’ is an expert blend of sounds that are set to satisfy even the most picky of pallets.

Maren Morris & Zedd – Make You Say

Fours years after country-pop superstar Maren Morris and EDM savant Zedd joined forces for the hit song ‘The Middle,’ the pair has once more linked up for the song ‘Make You Say.’ A light pop-meets-dance song, Morris delivers confident lyrics about how her ex is going to miss her. As effervescent as it is charming, Morris and Zedd prove that sometimes lightning does strike twice.

New Hope Club – Call Me A Quitter

New Hope Club continue to share a series of new tunes, their latest is called ‘Call Me A Quitter.’ The song is a laid-back slice of Caribbean-infused indie-pop that is the boys at their most personal. Equal parts savvy pop and vulnerable lyrics, ‘Call Me A Quitter’ is a rare feat in pop music, one proves New Hope Club are among the most brilliant groups out there.

Sara Kays – Watching TV

Gold-certified singer-songwriter Sara Kays is back with her latest single, the heart-wrenching ‘Watching TV.’ Set to an acoustic guitar and a soft back beat, ‘Watching TV’ tells the tale of a love ending out of the blue. With its tight arrangement and emotional lyrics, Sara Kays is the gold standard of how a pop song should be crafted, and ‘Watching TV’ is her crowing achievement.
