Does this sample Another One Bites the Dust? No. "Break My Heart" samples "Need You Tonight" by INXS. The title track is always left out of all these rankings, poor “future nostalgia” The reason of this is mainly because the title track wasn't pushed as a single and it was a promotional track instead.

I had the same problem with Katy Perry‘s NRO, good verse but the hook isn’t doing it for me. DSN and Physical are miles ahead.

This is inspired by How Long by Charlie Puth also?
6.5/10 for me, Don't Start Now is definitely the best so far.

Love the video! Great colors & moves! I think I'd preferred it to be more lowkey on the visual effects but I ain't mad. It fits the retro aspect of the song!

Meh song but the video is great mainly because it has her lethargic persona/lity(?) plastered all over it.

This is probably my favorite Dua Lipa music video. They’re really using a budget this era <3

Super bummed about "Physical" getting passed over in the US. An absolute earworm. DSN really cannibalized those spins.
I do like this, though. Glad my first listen was with the MV. Not sure I would have enjoyed it as much by itself.

Sounds like a Poof co-write and Physical shits ALL over this, but it's cute. Still excited for the album, though!

Dua's putting her Don't Start Now money to GOOD use omg, both this and Physical have had amazing videos, I hope this album is a smash so she can put out more singles with visuals this impressive, probably my favorite video of the year so far

The song remains a bop. The video is eh. They tried to make it as colorful and entertaining as possible, but without a compelling center (i.e. her), there's nothing to hold it together. She's practically sleepwalking, I'll probably never watch it again.
She seems far more engaged in the "Physical" videos.

Upon second listening I love it. Don’t Start Now stays as the superior track, but this is great. I’m glad they’re going with this second in North America. I enjoyed the video. :)
I wish she’d do a Dave Meyers video to mix it up, her sexy coolness with humour.
Edit: I love her nonchalant eyes LoL

She's 3/3 for me for releases so far. I can't WAIT for the album (held off on listening until release). This is my least favorite of the three, but it's still an 8/10 for me (DSN as 9/10 and Physical 10/10).
Her stage presence in videos is just a little off. Someone mentioned the "dead eyes" look and it's spot on - the scenes where she showed emotion and energy were fire. She just lacked energy.

The video is so good. I really hope the album release gives DSN a shot at #1 on the Hot 100 and that this takes off very quickly!

However, the music is so good at the moment that it does not matter when listening to her. Might think twice of paying $100 to see her concert though.

You ungrateful hoes act like every f**king performance of "Don't Start Now" wasn't stellar....and then to not even acknowledge the time Dua shut down the whole damn gay bar with her cute ass DSN choreo. Edit: The best era is recent memory is continuing to serve us left and right. The video is gorgeous, and I cannot wait to listen to this album tonight!

That video was fantastic. I hope this smashes hard ww and specially in the US so that her label continues investing budget in the era.

Does this sample Another One Bites the Dust? No. "Break My Heart" samples "Need You Tonight" by INXS. Omg I love that song! lol But, like, the beat is quite similar to AOBTD. I mean, I'm surprised that didn't get sued. Video is great, Dua is GORGEOUS!

The "How Long" similarities are spot on. On my first listen, when the chorus started I had to replay it around three times because it was so familiar.
