Dua Lipa’s Levitating is the first song by a lead female artist in Hot 100 history to spend 35 weeks in the chart’s top 10. The singer took to Instagram to thank her fans, expressing gratitude at all the love the song has received. Since its release in March 2020, the song that features in her sophomore album Future Nostalgia, continues to top billboard charts worldwide and has now become a dance anthem. Having featured in innumerable TikTok videos and Instagram reels, the track, which is a mix of electro-disco and nu-disco, with elements of pop-funk, space rock and R&B, remains a favourite. The 26-year-old co-wrote the song, which was inspired by Mike Myers in Austin Powers, and talks about the “levitating” feeling of falling in love.
