 POPLOVE X1:  
2023 - 2024 x CLASSIC POP HITS
A MASHUP JOURNEY INTO POP MUSIC

​

♫  Introducing PopLove X1:

A new mashup concept that brings recent hits from the last years mashed with iconic pop tracks from the previous decades!

Features samples from 95 tracks in total.

Mashup Remix  & Video edit by Robin Skouteris.

​

​

After 10 years of making PopLove annual Mashups, I wanted to stir things up a bit and make something a little different. Playing new hot tracks mashed with samples of timeless iconic classics was always part of my DJ sets, so i felt i had to bring that concept into my biggest project:

the PopLove series.
This is an idea i wanted to do for years, especially now that many hits from the past become viral again thanks to social media.

Now it is finally here, a mix that celebrates the latest chart hits

and the iconic classics we all love.
This is a mashup journey into pop culture.

This is PopLove X.

LYRICS :

 

(Narration by Josh Porter)
In the beginning, there was man.
Man created , culture, arts, MUSIC. 
Then technology came along, and man created electronic dance music.
But he still felt incomplete. 
And then the greatest thing of all happened.
Man created mashups.
Cause mashups are everything. And everything IS a mashup.
Your life is a mashup. 
YOU are a mashup. 
This is a mashup.
And this… is… Pop Love.


Hey Robin
It's the remix!
I feel the rush (Padam)
Addicted to your touch
Y'all ready for something new?
Let's go!

Looking back on all the time we spent together
You oughta know by now if you wanna be my lover
Wanna be my lover
(I feel the rush)

Heart beats so loud that it's drownin' me out
Livin' in an April shower
You're pourin' down, baby, drown me out

Wanna be my lover?
Be my lover, wanna be my lover
I need a lover (I need a lover)
Looking for a substitution
Be my lover, wanna be my lover
I need a lover (I need a lover)
But there ain't noone replacing you


La-da-da-dee-da-da-da-da
You're just like a river
La-da-da-dee-da-da-da-da
You're just like a river
La-da-da-dee-da
La-da-da-da-dee-da
La-da-dee-da-da-da-da-da
But there ain't noone replacing you

(If you can't love yo urself, how the hell you're gonna love somebody else?
Can i get an Amen here?)
Can love me better, I can lo ve me better baby
Can love me better, I...

If I'm driftin', say that you will be there
Hope you listen, say your name as my prayer

Ooh, every night (Every night), she prays to the sky
Flashin' lights...
Everybody's looking for somebody
For somebody to take home
(Beggin' on her knees to be popular
That's her dream, to be popular)
I'm not the exception
I'm a blessing of a body to love on
(Kill anyone to be popular)

Y ando despechá', woah, alocá'
'Cause there's somethin' on my mind
Lo muevo de la'o a la'o y a otro la'o
But there's somethin' on my mind
Welcome to the DCC, Dead Club City
'Cause there's somethin' on my mind
Welcome to the DCC, Dead Club City
But there's somethin' on my mind
Welcome to the DCC...

Get her number, get her name, get a good thing while you can
All I know it's 10:35
And I can feel your arms around me
Let ’em drown me

What is love?
Baby don't hurt me, don't hurt me no more
What is love?
Baby don't hurt me, don't hurt me no more
(li-li-like you, li-li-li-li-like you, li-li-like you, li-li-li-li-like you-you)
I get this feeling
I wanna be where you are
I wanna be where you are
It's time for you to let me go
(I wanna be where you are)
You drag me down, you're cynical
So cynical...
You know... I used to dream about this when i was a little boy.
Never thought it would end up this way.

Ram-dam, da-da-da, dam-dam
Ba-da-da-da-da, dam-dam
Ba-da-da-da-da, dam
The less you give to me, the more i want it
Drums.
 
Drums.
And that's what it is.
Drums.
Now everybody dance.

Everybody - everybody dance.
Take it to the floor now, Ooh
Don't be a bitch, come take it to the floor now, Ooh
Everybody dance now!

"Yes, and?"
Say that shit with your chest, (Yes!) and (Next!)

Keep moving like, "What's next?"
I think I'd better dance now!

"Yes, and?"

​

I'm a f#cking queen...
There's only one queen!

When I was very young
Nothing really mattered to me
But making myself happy
I was the only one
Now that I am grown
Everything's changed
I'll never be the same
Because of you

Nothing really matters (nothing really matters) 
Love is all we need (love is all we need)
Everything I give you
All comes back to me
I come and I go
Tell me all the ways you need me
I'm not here for long
Catch me or I go Houdini
I come and I go
Prove you got the right to please me
Everybody knows
Catch me or I go Houdini
If you're good enough, you'll find the way
Maybe you could cause a girl to change (Her ways)
Do you think about it night and day? (night and day, I'm hung up!)
Maybe you could be the one to make me stay

​

Make me sweat, make me hotter
Make me lose my breath, make me water
(Call me Kylie-lie-lie)
Make me sweat, make me hotter
(Don't imita-ta-tate)
Make me lose my breath, make me water
All night, touch me right there (Do-do, do-do)
Touch me right there (Do-do, do-do)
Touch me right there
Baby, break the tension
All night, touch me right there (Do-do, do-do)
Touch me right there (Do-do, do-do)
Touch me right there
Baby, what you missin'?
(Freed from desire)
Oh, my God, touch me right there
Almost there, touch me right there
(Freed from desire)
Don't be shy, boy, I don't bite
Nanananana nana nanana nanana
Nanananana nana nanana nana
Nanananana nana nanana nanana
Nanananana nana nanana nana
(Make me sweat, make me hotter, make me lose my breath)

Boy, you can't get no higher than this,
Na nananana, Na nananana
Na nananana, Na nananana
'Cause love don't get no higher than this
Na nananana, Na nananana
Na nananana, Na nananana
'Cause love don't get no higher than this
No
YES
NO!

​

(I feel the rush)
You look like fun to me
You look a little like somebody I know
Lay low, hit the sun
Everybody have a real good time
Real good time
I don't wanna know
If you're playin' me, keep it on the low
'Cause my heart can't take it anymore
You got my heartbeat racin'
My body blazin'
Presto che non resisto
Italo disco (You are my desire, ooh)
Quello che preferisco (to believe in a miracle)
(Take me away)


(Narration by Josh Porter) 
So Today, 
Humans love mashups.
Because in mashups, as in life,
Everyone and everything
comes together.

​

I feel the rush
Addicted to your touch
Oh, I feel the rush
It's so good, it's so good
I feel the rush
Addicted to your touch
Oh, I feel the rush
It's so good, it's so good
Watch me, dance, dance the night away
(La-da-da-dee-da-da-da-da)
It's so good, it's so good
Just dance, dance, dance the night away
(La-da-da-dee-da-da-da-da)
Come on Barbie, let's go party
Wanna be my lover?
Dance, Looking for a substitution
Be my lover, It's so good, it's so good
Just dance, dance, Looking for a substitution
Be my lover
But there ain't noone replacing you.

​

PopLove.
It's so good, it's so good.
