Hear Goo Goo Dolls’ ‘Iris’ reimagined as a dance track

Imagine thousands of people at a festival losing their minds while dancing to … “Iris”?

Goo Goo Dolls’ iconic love ballad has been reimagined by legendary electronic music pioneer Steve Aoki into a high-energy dance track. The collaboration was sparked when Steve invited Goo Goo Dolls singer John Rzeznik to perform the song with him at the Stagecoach festival in 2025.  The crowd loved it, so Steve decided to rework it into something he could play at future festivals and shows.

“Joining Steve onstage during his Stagecoach set was an unforgettable moment. The energy from the crowd was remarkable and the mixture of our two genres was amazing to witness live,” John says in a statement. “We’re thrilled to release this new version of ‘Iris’ with Steve and share that magic moment with our fans around the world.”

Steve adds in a statement, “Performing ‘Iris’ live with Goo Goo Dolls at Stagecoach was one of those rare, unforgettable moments. You could feel the connection everyone had to the song, but also this incredible rush as we brought it into a completely different environment.”

“That feeling stayed with me, and I knew we had to take it into the studio and build a version designed for festival stages, while preserving the heart of the original.”

Since its release in 1998, “Iris” — originally composed for the Nicolas Cage/Meg Ryan film City of Angels — has garnered over 5.5 billion streams worldwide. One billion of those streams were racked up in 2025 alone.

On Thursday night at New York’s Beacon Theatre, Goo Goo Dolls were one of many acts performing at the annual Love Rocks NYC concert, benefiting the charity God’s Love We Deliver. They played “Iris,” of course, as well as a cover of Tom Petty’s “You Wreck Me.”

Sienna Spiro is currently on her The Visitor Tour, but this week she made time to drop in on Sam Smith during their To Be Free residency at San Francisco’s Castro Theatre — and you can watch the footage of the moment now on Instagram.

At the show on Wednesday night, Sienna and Sam duetted on Sienna’s hit “Die on This Hill.” It was a full-circle moment, because late last year, Sienna opened for Sam when they did their residency in New York City and the two duetted on Sam’s hit “Lay Me Down.”

On Instagram, Sam wrote, “[S]inging with you is like flying. I’m so touched that you came to bless us all last night at the Castro.” Sienna commented, “I would’ve never written this song if I hadn’t grown up listening to you. Thank you so much for having me and always inspiring me. You are the greatest thank you sam, I can’t believe this.”

Sienna’s sold-out The Visitor Tour will wrap up March 18 in New York City. She’ll release her new single, also called “The Visitor,” on March 13.

Meanwhile, Sam’s residency in San Francisco concludes March 14.

Lauren Alaina’s duet partner in life, Cam Arnold, is responsible for her duet partner on her latest hit, “All My Exes” with Chase Matthew. 

“He is the best. I love that guy so much,” Lauren says of the “Darlin'” hitmaker. “My husband is the reason I have the duet with him, which is hilarious.”

“Cameron played him that song when we were on tour last year,” she continues. “First of all, the song is called ‘All My Exes,’ and it’s my husband’s favorite song of mine. I’m like, ‘I write you songs all the time, Cameron. Why is this one your favorite?’ But he just believed in the song, and said that he thought it was a hit and something that I needed to put out. And he went behind my back and played it for Chase, and then Chase loved it.”  

It’s worth noting Lauren has a pretty good track record when it comes to collaborations. “What Ifs” with Kane Brown, and “One Beer” with HARDY and Devin Dawson both made it to #1.

When pop star Harry Styles premiered his new single, “Aperture,” in January, perhaps you were reminded of Edgehill’s breakout song, “Doubletake.”

On “Doubletake,” which was originally released in 2025, frontman Chris Kelly sings the line, “Aperture change and it’s a daydream.” So, does Kelly think Styles took some inspiration from Edgehill on his #1 Billboard Hot 100 hit?

“He’s been a big fan for awhile,” Kelly jokes while speaking with ABC Audio. “I think it’s probably just that he heard that and probably thought, ‘Yeah, I’m inspired and that’s probably the best thing I’ve ever heard.’ My guess is that that’s probably what happened.”

“Aperture” appears on Styles’ much-anticipated new album, Kiss All the Time. Disco, Occasionally., which dropped Friday.

“The whole rest of the album probably is gonna make hints at ‘Doubletake,'” Kelly quips.

Beyond possibly inspiring one of the most popular musicians in the world, Kelly says that “Doubletake” is a song in part about dealing with self-doubt. 

“The chorus is kind of a realization of, like, it’s all here,” Kelly says. “It’s all already here, and I’m conscious, and I have the ability to do this myself.” 

Whether or not he was influenced by “Doubletake,” Styles does say that he was inspired to play live again after seeing Radiohead’s 2025 comeback tour.

“I went to see Radiohead in Berlin, and felt, like, so part of the audience in a way that I felt like I had a very clear moment of, like, this is why I get onstage,” Styles tells Zane Lowe on Apple Music 1.

“Doubletake,” meanwhile, currently sits in the top 10 on Billboard’s Alternative Airplay chart. It appears on Edgehill’s debut album, Ode to the Greyhouse, out now.
