LISA’s “Moonlit Floor” Dominates New Music Poll
Music enthusiasts participated in a poll released on Friday (Oct. 4) by Billboard, selecting the solo single from BLACKPINK’s LISA as their favorite new music release of the week.
With an overwhelming 96% of the vote, “Moonlit Floor” secured a significant lead over other new releases such as Coldplay’s “Moon Music,” Finneas’ “For Cryin’ Out Loud!,” the Joker: Folie à Deux soundtrack, James Bay’s “Changes All the Time,” and more.
LISA’s “Moonlit Floor” Continues to Shine
LISA unveiled “Moonlit Floor” after debuting it live at the Global Citizen Fest in September. The captivating song features an interpolation of Sixpence None the Richer’s hit “Kiss Me,” which peaked at No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in 1998 from the group’s self-titled album released in 1997.
In the ethereal chorus, the K-pop superstar sings, “Kiss me under the Paris twilight/ Kiss me out on the moonlit floor,” putting her own spin on Sixpence None the Richer’s original lyrics.
2021 has been an exciting year for LISA, with the success of “Rockstar,” her first-ever No. 1 hit on the Billboard Global Excl. U.S. chart. She also collaborated with Rosalía on “New Woman,” showcasing her versatility as a solo artist.
Coldplay’s “Moon Music” Trails Behind
In contrast to LISA’s dominance, Coldplay’s “Moon Music” garnered nearly 2% of the vote in this week’s poll. The British band’s 10th album, produced by Max Martin, features collaborations with Jon Hopkins, Little Simz, Burna Boy, Ayra Starr, Elyanna, and TINI, continuing the success of their 2021 album, “Music of the Spheres.”
