The upbeat track encourages listeners to dance their worries away and surrender to the beat of a fun, vibrant day
Filipino singer-songwriter Benj Pangilinan joyfully embraces life with a positive outlook in his latest single, “Dance Like You,” released today through Sony Music Entertainment.
In this euphoric four-minute pop anthem, the talented newcomer dons his dancing shoes to sing about seizing the moment with a cheerful disposition, both in life and love, capturing the essence of youthful excitement.
Pangilinan shares, “Dance Like You” is a song that resonates with all ages and anyone seeking to have a good time and dance. I penned this song a couple of years ago during the pandemic. I vividly recall playing the guitar when an intriguing chord progression struck me. Without hesitation, I reached for my phone, opened the Voice Memos app, and sensed that a song was about to take shape.”
With his infectious new tune, Pangilinan delivers a much-needed burst of positivity, akin to the warmth of morning sunlight streaming through a window. It’s an upbeat track that offers a generous serving of fun and optimism.
Pangilinan mentions that when crafting “Dance Like You,” he deliberately avoided overthinking the lyrics. The promising young artist had a vision of creating a song that bridges two generations of music, enabling listeners of different ages to let loose, enjoy themselves, and dance.
Grammy-nominated producer Xerxes Bakker, a frequent collaborator with Pangilinan, imbued the track with a timeless, contemporary edge, allowing Benj to express himself authentically and showcase his vibrant personality.
“Dance Like You” will be part of an upcoming EP to be released under Sony Music Entertainment. In discussing his highly anticipated debut record, Benj reveals that the EP represents his exploration and self-discovery as an artist. He eagerly anticipates sharing his journey and inspiring people through his music.
The infectious track serves as the followup to his first single “Love, That’s Rare,” which he wrote to reflect on the conflicting emotions he was experiencing at the time. Watch the music video here.
