Coldplay return with their first new non-holiday music in three years. It is expected that this bright pop-rock song is the first release from an upcoming fifth studio album by the group.

Selena Gomez and the Scene preview their When the Sun Goes Down album with what might be their best single yet. It has sassy, my new boyfriend is better than the old, lyrics over addictive synth pop.
3. Pitbull - "Pause"

Pitbull continues to give us a taste of his upcoming Planet Pit collection. This song is particularly fun mixing Latin influences with synths that sound a bit like "We No Speak Americano." Pitbull already visited that territory on the song "Bon Bon" from his Spanish language album Armando, but we'll forgive a little similarity.
4. 311 - "Sunset In July"
