Before concluding her triumphant Future Nostalgia phase, Dua Lipa had one last major hit from her album references to release. And she has just dropped it as the title track for the Barbie movie soundtrack: ‘Dance the Night’ becomes the cherry on top of one of the most highly-anticipated films in the industry.
The violins join forces with the synthesizers to create a perfect melody for lyrics full of sensuality and fantasy. When we add the meticulously crafted audiovisual proposal designed specifically for the movie adaptation of the doll’s universe, the result is simply amazing.
With an abundance of pink, shiny and form-fitting clothes pushed to the limit, confetti, high heels, mirror balls, and bodies moving to the rhythm of disco music, Dua Lipa embodies the perfect combination. Margot Robbie, who portrays Barbie, also shines as she follows the choreography in certain scenes of the film.
Even Greta Gerwig takes on the role of the music video’s director, commanding the British singer and creating a fantastical musical experience while we listen to «watch me dance the night away / My heart could be burnin’, but you won’t see it on my face / Watch me dance, dance the night away / I still keep the party running”.
Baby, you can find me under the lights
Diamonds under my eyes
Turn the rhythm up, don’t you wanna just
Just come along for the ride?
Pull my outfits up tight
You can see my heartbeat tonight
I can take the heat, baby, best believe
That’s the moment I shine
‘Cause every romance shakes and it bends
Don’t give a damn
When the night’s here, I don’t do tears
Baby, no chance
I could dance, I could dance, I could dance
Watch me dance,
dance the night away
My heart could be burning but you won’t see it on my face
Watch me dance, dance the night away
I still keep the party running, not one hair out of place
Lately I’ve been moving close to the edge
Still be looking my best
I stay on the beat, you can count on me
I ain’t missing no steps
‘Cause every romance shakes and it bends
Don’t give a damn
When the night’s here, I don’t do tears
Baby, no chance
I could dance, I could dance, I could dance

Watch me dance,
dance the night away
My heart could be burning but you won’t see it on my face
Watch me dance, dance the night away
I still keep the party running, not one hair out of place
When my heart breaks
They’ll never see it, never see it
When my world shakes
I feel alive, I feel alive
I don’t play it safe
Don’t you know about me?
I could dance, I could dance, I could dance
Even when the tears are flowing like diamonds on my face
I still keep the party going, not one hair out of place
Even when the tears are flowing like diamonds on my face
I still keep the party going, not one hair out of place
Watch me dance,
dance the night away
My heart could be burning but you won’t see it on my face
Watch me dance, dance the night away
I still keep the party running, not one hair out of place
Watch me dance,
dance the night away
My heart could be burning but you won’t see it on my face
Watch me dance, dance the night away
I still keep the party running, not one hair out of place
When my heart breaks
They’ll never see it, never see it
When my world shakes
I feel alive, I feel alive
I don’t play it safe
Don’t you know about me?
I could dance, I could dance, I could dance

Moreover, this musical project will count on Mark Ronson as executive producer, who has even collaborated in the past with Dua Lipa on ‘Electricity’ as half of the duo Silk City.
Even Ryan Gosling takes the plunge to sing as Ken in this soundtrack in which we don’t miss Aqua’s ‘Barbie Girl’. Because with Dua Lipa and Margot Robbie inviting us to dance the night away to disco… who needs more?
