Top 5 Albums for Pop Fans This Christmas!

By Dan

Well, it's safe to say that Christmas fever is most definitely upon us!

With that comes the added stress of finding the perfect gift. We've made things easy and put together this handy list of the top 5 Pop albums to treat that special someone this Christmas!

1. Taylor Swift – 1989

1989 is a touchstone; Taylor's songwri­ting and sonic evolution surprises us more than ever before. Heavily keyboard and beat driven, the pop sensibilities that have always been the hallmark of Taylor’s music now move front and centre on 1989.

I spent two years making 1989. Two years gives you enough time to grow and change and let things inspire you. I was listening to a lot of late 80's pop music and how bold those songs were and how that time period was a time of limitless possibilities

Order 1989 today!

2. Ed Sheeran – X

X is Ed Sheeran's second album that features new single ‘Sing’ as well as tracks such as ‘One’, Runaway' and ‘The Man’.
Ed Sheeran 23-year-old has claimed to have written “about 120” songs for his second release, recording them with Rick Rubin, Pharrell Williams and and producer Jake Gosling. To choose the best of these, he asked the advice of songwriting pal Taylor Swift. “She's heard all the songs and she's a good judge of what's good or not good,” he told MTV News.

3. Sam Smith – In The Lonely Hour

In The Lonely Hour’ is a 10-track labour of love for Sam “I said to myself, I don’t want to have a genre. I wanted to take a risk”. In the course of putting it together, Sam has worked with a roll call of blue chip collaborative names including Fraser T Smith, Two Inch Punch, Eg White, Disclosure, Zane Lowe, Tourist and long term writing partner Jimmy Napes.
