Ballet School — “Crush”

Berlin trio Ballet School have been making delicate synthpop numbers all year long, but this was their first song to really grab my attention — and it really is a winner. It’s sparkly and spunky, evoking — at once — ’80s Madonna and HAIM and The Cocteau Twins in a gorgeous, joyful little pastiche. Also, there’s enough blue hair in this video to make even MS MR jealous. Not a bad thing.
