"Dance the Night" is a song by English-Albanian singer Dua Lipa from Barbie the Album, the soundtrack of the film Barbie (2023).

Atlantic and Warner Records released it as the soundtrack's lead single on 25 May 2023. A pop and disco song that features cello, violin, viola, guitar and bass in its instrumentation, "Dance the Night" is about dancing throughout the night despite enduring sadness. Its release was accompanied by a music video, which features a cameo appearance of Barbie writer and director Greta Gerwig. Dua Lipa performed "Dance the Night" at the 66th Grammy Awards.

"Dance the Night" reached number-one on the UK Singles Chart, becoming Dua Lipa's fourth number-one single in the country. In the United States, the song peaked at number six on the Billboard Hot 100, becoming the singer's fifth top-ten single in the country. Elsewhere, "Dance the Night" reached number-one in Ireland and Belgium while it peaked within the top-ten in Australia, Austria, Canada, Denmark, France, Germany, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Russia and Switzerland. It was nominated for Song of the Year and Best Song Written for Visual Media at the 66th Annual Grammy Awards and for Best Original Song at the 81st Golden Globe Awards.

Background and release

In April 2023, it was announced that Dua Lipa had joined the cast of Greta Gerwig's upcoming fantasy comedy film Barbie. She recorded original music for the film's soundtrack, Barbie the Album. On 22 May 2023, Lipa announced its lead single, "Dance the Night", would be released on 26 May. This marked her first musical output since the conclusion of her Future Nostalgia (2020) album release cycle. Official Charts Company's George Griffiths commented the song's snippet sounded like a return "to the disco-soaked sonics of Future Nostalgia...with a plastic sheen, of course". The snippet soundtracked a clip in which Lipa steps out of fleecy heels, recreating a shot of Margot Robbie's arched foot in the second Barbie trailer, before blowing a kiss to the camera; the lyric "Just come along for the ride!" plays over a glinting disco groove. VultureШаблон:'s Jennifer Zhan remarked its release marked the death of a viral meme about Lipa's hip twist, as news about it replaced the latter atop search results.

Before signing on to produce the Barbie soundtrack, producer Mark Ronson received a text from his friend George Drakoulias that simply stated, "Barbie?" Before production, director Greta Gerwig needed a disco song that would be the basis of highly choreographed dance number, so she sent Ronson a playlist of what she was looking for. Ronson and colleague Andrew Wyatt created a backing track that Gerwig loved and used for dance rehearsals. This song would later become "Dance the Night".

A 10-second instrumental snippet of the song was included in the first teaser of Barbie.

Composition

"Dance the Night" is two minutes and 56 seconds long. Andrew Wyatt, Mark Ronson, and the Picard Brothers produced the song. Wyatt plays bass and synthesizer, Ronson plays guitar and Rhodes piano, the Picard Brothers play keyboards and programmed it with its engineer Brandon Bost. It features cello, violin, and viola in its instrumentation, and it was mixed by Serban Ghenea with assistance from Bryce Bordone.

"Dance the Night" is a pop and disco song. It is performed in the key of B minor and at a tempo of 110 beats per minute, with Lipa's vocals ranging from [[G♯ (musical note)|GШаблон:Music₃]] to B₄. The song incorporates "classic strings and funky bass". VarietyШаблон:'s Thania Garcia described it as "a slick, disco-pop number". In the chorus, Lipa sings the lyrics: "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". She compares the tears streaming down her face while she cries to diamonds.

Music video

The accompanying music video for "Dance the Night" was released alongside the song. It features a cameo appearance of Barbie director Greta Gerwig, and clips from the film featuring Margot Robbie, Issa Rae, Emma Mackey, and other cast members. The video has a pink set, and Lipa learns new choreography in it after discovering a disco ball that had been ordered for the shoot has collapsed to the ground. She dances atop a huge Barbie heel, and the cameos occur during a disco party, after which Gerwig vacates her director's chair to praise Lipa's performance and question the events that led up to the disco ball's destruction. Fans theorized that the smashed disco ball signaled the end of Lipa's Future Nostalgia era; the theory was corroborated by Ronson in an interview with Vulture. PitchforkШаблон:'s Evan Minsker summarised the clip: "Lipa lead[s] a troupe of dancing disco balls, get[s] behind the wheel of a Barbie-pink convertible, and dance[s] on a hot pink stage." It features life-sized perfume bottles, and Larisha Paul of Rolling Stone stated that it is "as much glitter and glam as it is escapism and unease".
