Hailing from London, pop singer-songwriter Allegra offers her latest single &#8216;Strangers&#8217;, an uplifting number that delves into the aftermath of a past relationship. Adopting a newly established distinct pop sound, Allegra sends out a bold message of independence &#8211; with a mood-boosting, empowering video to match.<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Filmed in iconic locations such as Oxford Street and Camden, Allegra gradually progresses from aching heartbreak, going through the several stages of a break-up. From deleting his number to throwing a gifted necklace into the thames, the artist symbolically removes the previous from her life, with her happiness growing in the process. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It results in an overarching message of self-love, as she dances freely through the illuminated streets of her hometown. Viewers will be encouraged to focus on themselves and rebuild their confidence &#8211; if Allegra can do it, so can you! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Allegra had a breakout year in 2023 after rising to the top spot of the Music Week Pop Commercial Charts with Tiesto&#8217;s remix of &#8216;Round and Round&#8217;, which was preceded by the explosive club hit &#8216;Love You Right Back&#8217; featuring DJ ALOK. Now, Allegra is striding out on her own, and shows no signs of stopping here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Watch the video for &#8216;Strangers&#8217; below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"epyt-video-wrapper\"><div  style=\"display: block; margin: 0px auto;\"  id=\"_ytid_79765\"  width=\"640\" height=\"360\"  data-origwidth=\"640\" data-origheight=\"360\"  data-relstop=\"1\" data-facadesrc=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/cFYemeEpzlc?enablejsapi=1&#038;origin=https:\/\/essentiallypop.com&#038;autoplay=0&#038;cc_load_policy=0&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;loop=0&#038;fs=1&#038;playsinline=1&#038;controls=1&#038;disablekb=0&#038;color=red&#038;cc_lang_pref=&#038;rel=0&#038;autohide=2&#038;theme=dark&#038;\" class=\"__youtube_prefs__ epyt-facade epyt-is-override  no-lazyload\" data-epautoplay=\"1\" ><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" data-spai-excluded=\"true\" class=\"epyt-facade-poster skip-lazy\" loading=\"lazy\"  alt=\"ALLEGRA &#039;Strangers&#039; (Official Music Video)\"  src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/cFYemeEpzlc\/maxresdefault.jpg?w=640&#038;ssl=1\"  \/><button class=\"epyt-facade-play\" aria-label=\"Play\"><svg data-no-lazy=\"1\" height=\"100%\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 68 48\" width=\"100%\"><path class=\"ytp-large-play-button-bg\" d=\"M66.52,7.74c-0.78-2.93-2.49-5.41-5.42-6.19C55.79,.13,34,0,34,0S12.21,.13,6.9,1.55 C3.97,2.33,2.27,4.81,1.48,7.74C0.06,13.05,0,24,0,24s0.06,10.95,1.48,16.26c0.78,2.93,2.49,5.41,5.42,6.19 C12.21,47.87,34,48,34,48s21.79-0.13,27.1-1.55c2.93-0.78,4.64-3.26,5.42-6.19C67.94,34.95,68,24,68,24S67.94,13.05,66.52,7.74z\" fill=\"#f00\"><\/path><path d=\"M 45,24 27,14 27,34\" fill=\"#fff\"><\/path><\/svg><\/button><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We all love a catchy break-up anthem, don&#8217;t we?
