Dance the Night

Dua Lipa, 2023

Dance the NightDua Lipa

Dua Lipa wrote Dance the Night with Mark Ronson, Andrew Wyatt and Caroline Ailin for the Barbie film in 2023, and it went to number one in the UK that summer, her fourth chart topper here. It was released in May as the lead single from Barbie the Album. The lyric is about keeping dancing however the night goes, with a string arrangement that sounds like 1978 played through a modern desk. Couples choose it when they want the band to open the floor with something their guests heard on every radio station in the summer of 2023. Lipa also appears in the film itself, in a brief cameo as Mermaid Barbie.
