"Atomic City" is a song by English singer Holly Johnson, released in 1989 as the third single from his debut solo album Blast.

"[2] On its release as a single, Stuart Maconie, writing for New Musical Express, considered "Atomic City" to be lovable nonsense but no 'Relax'."

He added, "'Atomic City' is perhaps not the most exciting record ever made but the wonderful Holly could sing the Berkshire phone book and invest it with some naughty glamour.

"[3] Music & Media noted the song's "dark, funky backing", "dramatic orchestral breaks", "subdued but highly seductive chorus" and "excellent production".

[4] In a review of Blast, Melody Maker noted the song's "hard-on, haughty syncopation" and added, "Blast may lack Trevor Horn's exotic depth and sweep but 'Atomic City' has learned enough from Frankie to locate a hiatus of pastoral serenity in the midst of the swelter.
