Background

In an interview with Billboard Argentia, Mahone stated that the song is about "finding that person with whom you are comfortable and can be 100% you."[3]

Composition

[edit]

"Dancing with Nobody" was written by Austin Mahone, Jim Lavigne, Ian Kirkpatrick, Sam Martin, Jacob Luttrell and Lindy Robbins, while production was handled by Kirkpatrick.[4] The song has been described as a "feel-good anthem" track as stated by Mahone.[5] He also added that he wanted the track "to be a fun, upbeat song that will make everyone feel that they just can't help but get up and dance."[5]

Critical reception

[edit]

Mike Nied of Idolator stated, "he delivers some very romantic lyrics over a danceable beat." He also complimented the song by calling it the "best" single release he had in 2019, compared to "Why Don't We" and "Anxious".[6] Ivy Sandoval of Soundigest remarked, "This new single is the perfect upbeat song with a groovy rhythm that's sure to get you on your feet. It's an infectious beat, giving off a hint of '70s vibes, along with a modern beat of drums, guitars and his effortless falsettos."[7]

Music video

The music video was released on June 19, 2019.[6] It was directed by Trent Barboza and was filmed in Venice beach.[7]
