Tyrone Lebon/Warner Records; Sabrina: Island/UMGDua Lipa has shared another track from her album Radical Optimism and makes a splash with a sexy video, as well.Dua's released "Illusion," the third track we've gotten to hear from the album, following "Houdini" and "Training Season." According to Dua, "Illusion" was the first song she and her main collaborators worked on together. "It really broke the ice for the record,” she says.“It’s about knowing what you’re getting yourself into, but staying for the hell of it. The joke’s on them, it’s the fun of playing someone at their own game because ultimately you won’t fall for an illusion.”Dua wrote on Instagram, "This song started everything for this album sonically ... it has just made me even more excited for Radical Optimism in 3 WEEKS ~ aaaaahhh it’s all bloody kicking off!!!"The music video really leans in to the aquatic theme of the album cover and the making-of video that Dua's shared. It was filmed at a famous Olympic pool complex in Barcelona with a panoramic view of the city, and features Dua and a troupe of dancers, scantily clad high divers and synchronized swimmers cavorting both in and out of the water.One of Dua's collaborators on the album is Australian musician Kevin Parker, who records as Tame Impala. Fun fact: Parker also co-wrote and co-produced an upbeat song for another pop superstar with the word "Illusion" in the title. Remember Lady Gaga's 2016 single "Perfect Illusion"?Copyright © 2024, ABC Audio. All rights reserved.

Tim Mosenfelder/Getty ImagesSheryl Crow is just one of the big names performing at Keep The Party Going: A Tribute to Jimmy Buffett, a concert in honor of the late singer taking place April 11 at the Hollywood Bowl. Paul McCartney, Bruce Springsteen, Jon Bon Jovi, the Eagles and Jackson Browne are also on the bill. Sheryl says she and Buffett met even before she was famous: He hired her to sing backup vocals on a project after her two-year stint on the road singing backing vocals for the King of Pop."I was blessed enough to get to spend some really good quality time with him," she tells ABC Audio. "Actually, it's interesting — he was my first recording session after I came home from the Michael Jackson tour, and I flew down because the band I used to sing with in St. Louis became [Buffett's] Coral Reefer [Band] — and that was in 1989."Sheryl says she loved Buffett because of the way he approached his career."He emulates exactly how I wish I could be, which is just so in the joyful moment of making music," she says. "Y'know, sometimes we get so in our analytical head and decide if something is good or bad, or if we've delivered ... and he was not that.""He was somebody who was there for the fans, and loved what he did and was just a great man." Other artists on the bill include Jack Johnson, country stars Kenny Chesney, Eric Church and Zac Brown, and Pitbull.Copyright © 2024, ABC Audio.
