At its best, pop music should make you feel or experience something universal like love or heartbreak. Taking that to its extreme is "Galaxies", the new futuristic pop single from South African singer-songwriter Alice Phoebe Lou. As she explains in greater detail below, "Galaxies" tells the story of a falling star landing on earth and coming to terms with its no existence, and it gets pretty existential at points. It's not every day you see the worlds of high-concept science fiction and pop music coming together, but if it's packaged in such an entrancing and truly enticing way, we can't imagine any objecting to hearing more.
