October 23rd marks the release of Nobody Wants This Season 2: The Soundtrack<\/em><\/a>, a 19-song powerhouse featuring all-new music from A-listers like Chris Stapleton, Role Model, Kacey Musgraves, and more, out now via The Core Records in partnership with Interscope Records. Arriving the same day as the highly anticipated return of Netflix\u2019s smash-hit rom-com, the genre-spanning soundtrack also includes global superstar Selena Gomez\u2019s new single \u201cIn The Dark<\/a>,\u201d a full-hearted dance-pop anthem premiering alongside its official video.<\/p>\n The first new music from Gomez since I Said I Love You First<\/em> <\/a>(her widely acclaimed collaborative album with Benny Blanco), \u201cIn The Dark\u201d finds the Grammy nominated, multi-platinum-selling recording artist working with an elite lineup of producers: three-time Grammy Award winner Andrew Watt (Halsey, Post Malone), Cirkut (Ros\u00e9, Charli XCX), and Louis Bell (Taylor Swift, Ed Sheeran). With her co-writers including heavy-hitters Ali Tamposi (Dua Lipa, Camila Cabello) and Justin Tranter (Lady Gaga, Chappell Roan). Propelled by a potent collision of glittering synth, pulsating beats, and throbbing bass grooves (courtesy of Watt), \u201cIn The Dark\u201d ultimately achieves a feverish intensity as Gomez pledges her unconditional love to a troubled soul in need of solace (from the chorus: \u201cAnd I\u2019ll be there when you lose yourself \/ To remind you of who you are \/ And I\u2019ll be there like nobody else \/ You\u2019re still beautiful in the dark\u201d).<\/p>\n To create the musical accompaniment to the binge-ready tale of unconventional romance between Joanne (a podcaster played by Kristen Bell) and Noah (a rabbi played by Adam Brody), The Core Entertainment CEO and co-founder Simon Tikhman worked alongside his team at The Core, Interscope, and Aperture Music to assemble a specially curated collection of unreleased, original songs from today\u2019s biggest stars and brightest new talents.
