Following a lot of media teasers, Dua Lipa has released her new single.
Houdini is an infectious, disco-flecked dance-pop track with an earworm chorus you'll be singing for the rest of the day. Introducing it, she said:
“This track represents the most light and freeing parts of my singledom. ’Houdini’ is very tongue in cheek, exploring the idea of whether someone is really worth my while or if I’ll ghost them in the end. You never know where something may take you, that’s the beauty of being open to whatever life throws your way. I’m looking forward to sharing that feeling of defiant bliss with my fans.”
It arrives with a video directed by Manu Cossu with cinematographer André Chemetoff that finds the singer performing vibrant choreography solo and with back-up.
Lipa co-wrote the song with Caroline Ailin, Danny L. Harle, Tobias Jesso Jr., and Tame Impala’s Kevin Parker, and it kicks off a new chapter for the vocalist. Discussing the highly anticipated follow-up to 2020's 'Future Nostalgia', she said:
“A lot of this album was written in those joyous moments of absolute chaos and how I moved through the world with lightness and optimism of whatever the outcome may be.”
