Lollipop - This Is The Reason Remix

Track 6 of ''Popstars'' Repack Disc 2 (2002) Lollipop were an Italian group performing on the pop scene between 2001 and 2004. The members were Dominique Fidanza (Domy), Marcella Ovani (Marcellina), Marta Falcone, Roberta Ruiu and Veronica Rubino. They debuted with a single that stayed in singles chart many weeks, and in just its first four weeks it sold over 100,000 copies, an enormous success for a single in the Italian music market which is traditionally much more concentrated on album sales. They then released their debut album, Popstars, which spawned the follow-up single "Don't Leave Me Now" (number 9 on the single chart) and their third single "When The Rain", a ballad conceived for the Christmas market whose video was their first to be broadcast on MTV and reached No. 5 on TRL. The single charted in the Top 20. During the summer the group performed in many Italian discos and clubs with the Popstar 2001 Tour. In March 2002 the group took part in the Sanremo Music Festival with their first song in Italian, "Batte Forte", after which they were highly criticized by the press, above all because of their poor live performance. The single was also included in the re-release of their first album, Popstars Remixed, featuring a second CD with the remixed versions of all their songs, "Batte Forte" included. During the summer of the same year, the group embarked on the Popstars 2002 Tour all over Italy. In March 2003 they released their second single in Italian "Credi A Me", which was featured in the Italian-dubbed version of the Disney movie The Jungle Book 2. The group decided to take a break and only in January 2004 released their second album Together, which spawned two singles "Dreaming of love" and the digital single "You". The album, released without any promotion by WEA, didn't gain much success and the group broke up after being dropped by their record label.In March 2013, the band announced their comeback as a quartet, as Dominique Fidanza expressed no interest in joining the reunion. The group started a promotional tour on many Italian TV Shows and performed in important clubs throughout the country. As a result, their first album Popstars and the single "Batte Forte" re-entered the iTunes chart, reaching the Top 20. On 9 June 2013 the band premiered their comeback single "Ciao (Reload)" during a performance at Just Cavalli, a popular club in Milan. The single, produced by international DJ and producer Mario Fargetta a.k.a. GETFAR, was officially released on 21 June 2013. In October 2013, the group announced on their Facebook page that they would record a new single, but the project did not materialize and the group went to hiatus.On 17 January 2018, the group appeared on Italia 1 TV program 90 Special: Lollipop during the show performed their biggest hit, "Down Down Down", and officially confirmed the release of a new single. They released the single "Ritmo Tribale" on 26 April 2018. The day itself the group promoted the single appearing on Canale 5 TV program Pomeriggio Cinque, one of Italy's most important TV shows. On 1 May 2018, they released the official music video. Lollipop began then a promotional tour that brought them into the most important italian clubs and festivals of various kinds.
