"Don't Stop the Music" is a song by Barbadian singer Rihanna from her third studio album, Good Girl Gone Bad (2007). It was the third single from the album in most of Europe, and the fourth single in the rest of the world. On December 6 2007, "Don't Stop the Music" received a Grammy nomination in the category of "Best Dance Recording" at the 50th Grammy Awards.

Single release

The song was originally intended to be the third main U.S. single from Good Girl Gone Bad, but "Hate That I Love You" was suddenly chosen as a replacement for the song as the third main single from Good Girl Gone Bad,[1] while "Don't Stop the Music" was instead earmarked only for dance club play and dance radio outlets in the U.S. and released in several European countries as the third single. Following "Hate That I Love You"'s release, "Breakin' Dishes" was then planned to follow as the fourth single in the U.S. from the album. However, a sudden resurgence on Top 40 radio stations and in digital downloads of the song, led to the song charting and climbing to number twenty-six on the Billboard Hot 100, before Def Jam had yet engaged in any American promotion for a single release. Perhaps in response, it was released in the U.S. as the fourth main single from the album on January 15 2008. Following its official U.S. release, the song has achieved top ten success in the United States, becoming Rihanna's third top ten single from Good Girl Gone Bad, as well as so far tying the #7 peak of the third single, "Hate That I Love You." It is also a top ten success in over twenty other countries, including the United Kingdom, Ireland, Italy, Greece, New Zealand, and Canada. It has reached number one in Germany, Switzerland, France, Finland, and Austria.

Music and structure

"Don't Stop the Music" is a moderately fast dance groove composed in the key of A major.[2] The tempo is set in common time.[2] The song samples the Michael Jackson 1983 single "Wanna Be Startin' Somethin'", which also sampled the Manu Dibango 1972 single Soul Makossa, hence the "Mama-say, mama-sa, mama-coo-sa" that is interpolated in the bridge of the song. The Bloodhound Gang also used sample in their song "Mama Say".

Music video

The music video for "Don't Stop the Music", was premiered on BET's 106 & Park on July 20 2007.The video was filmed the day after the "Shut Up and Drive" video in Prague, and she used hair extensions to make her hair longer than in the music videos of "Umbrella" and "Shut Up and Drive".

The video opens with Rihanna and two of her friends coming out of a taxi, and they walk into a candy store telling a boy to be quiet. They sneak into the back of the candy store where there is a disco going on. The verse begins with Rihanna singing in the bathroom while checking herself out and putting on makeup. After this she walks out of the bathroom and walks into the club where everyone is dancing, and the chorus begins. The second verse just shows Rihanna singing on a table in the club, singing around her friends and her dancing in the club. The video ends with Rihanna dancing, singing and on a table. Nolan Padilla from the Jennifer Lopez reality television show DanceLife also appears.

The soundtrack to the video is an otherwise unreleased edit which also features an alternate vocal take of the final, partially acapella "Please don't stop the music..."

Chart performance

"Don't Stop the Music" has achieved considerable success in several European countries. It reached a peak of number one in Austria,Belgium, France (where it was the artist's first number one single), Germany, Luxembourg, The Netherlands, Switzerland and on the Euro Billboard Chart, which is a composite of the different European markets. In Italy, it is Rihanna's highest charting song to date, having reached number two. It has also reached number nine in Ireland, despite not being released there until February 2008. In addition, it has been successful in Canada, where it has reached number two on the Canadian Hot 100, becoming her second top five single from Good Girl Gone Bad.

Although at the time it had not been released as a promotional single in the U.S., it did reach number one on the U.S. Dance Club Play chart. Several weeks after its peak atop the Billboard Dance Airplay chart, the single began to see a resurgence on radio, particularly on Top 40 stations. This lead to the song debuting at number eight on Billboard's Bubbling Under Hot 100 Singles chart. The following week, the song jumped fourteen spots to officially debut on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, despite the fact that a single release in the U.S. for the song had still not yet been announced. Furthermore, the song's fast-rising airplay has propelled its popularity, leading to a surge of digital downloads on iTunes from the digital album. Total downloads to date for "Don't Stop The Music" stand at 549,000. The song, which entered the iTunes Top 100 Songs chart at number ninety-five on December 7, 2007 has climbed to number two as of January 21 2008. This digital component has further helped the song on the Hot 100, where it has so far reached number seven,becoming her seventh top ten single in the United States. The song was finally officially released in the U.S. on January 15 2008.[3]

On 30 December 2007, the song entered the UK Singles Chart based upon digital sales alone and has peaked at an impressive number five so far. The single's popularity in the UK has exceeded that of the third Good Girl Gone Bad single Hate That I Love You, which only managed a peak of number fifteen upon its physical release. "Don't Stop The Music" will be officially released in the UK on February 4 2008 and is receiving heavy airplay across the country, most likely resulting in the song becoming number one.

As of January 14 2008 the song has reached 2.218.000 points on the global track chart and has been certified platinum.
