Becky G
Can’t Stop Dancin’
Album: TBA
Year: 2014
Becky G gets really into the music in the subdued “Can’t Stop Dancin’.”
Mousy synths open the single, setting an He puts her hands on her lips and she throws her head back, her hair swinging. The heat from the lights warmed her up and she’s relaxed. Everything is absolutely perfect right now. (“The lights are shining like the sun out tonight/Just keep your body moving how I like/Oh yeah the music feels like paradise/Can't get any better, no/I wanna stay right in this moment for life/Baby treat me wrong, treat me right.”)
In the chorus, she pulls a strand of hair from her forehead. Although she’s sweating, she wants to stay on the dancefloor. (“Ay ay ay, aye/Just can't stop dancing/Ay ay ay, aye/Don't wanna chance it/So don't let go let go of me/Don't let go let go of me/Ay ay ay, aye/I just can't stop dancing/Again now/Spin around now/Down now, to the floor now.”)
She directs the guy’s hand over her body. She doesn’t care if anybody is looking. He asks her if she’s sure. She tells him yes, she’s ok with it. (“Your mind is going places I can't see you/That lets me know this is real/And I won't stop you no I like it there/You can even go further babe/Cause nothing's forbidden/Don't be scare, no worries/Once I'm there, all is forgiven/So be prepared/To come and push up on my.”)
The chorus is sung again.
In the bridge, she is lost in the music. (“Believe it, I feel it/It's in the air/Although you can't see you know it's there/My heart keeps on racing, in overdrive/Once the music hits my body I feel so alive/And it's alright/It's got me like.’)
The chorus is sung twice to end the single.
Becky G flicks the envelope. She wants to be racy but doesn’t give into it. It’s only her second single and she already seems sick of the playing the game. On top of it, she making herself sound as much as Selena Gomez as possible. It’s in that scary, single white female sort of way, too.
The detached “Can’t Stop Dancin’” will have Selena Gomez locking her doors.
