3. Levitating - Dua Lipa
Given her bold dresses and audacious music, one wouldn’t normally associate Dua Lipa with romantic lyrics which is why “Levitating” comes as a welcome surprise. Since its release, the music video for “Levitating” has proved to be one of her most successful to date, with more than 400 million hits on YouTube.
In 2020, when everyone was locked indoors, Lips brought the party and club vibes to our homes with “Levitating.” To make the song even more romantic, the British singer’s boyfriend Anwar Hadid made a feature appearance in the music video, and the two of them were the embodiment of on-screen couple goals.
