Vorlage:Infobox Single "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, the second single in Germany and Spain 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. Rihanna performed this song, along with "Umbrella", at the 50th Grammy Awards. The single also made Australian ARIA Chart history when it became the first single to top the charts solely on download sales.

The single "Hate That I Love You" was the third single in the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland. "Don't Stop the Music" was released as the fourth single, opposite to the rest of Europe and Australia.

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 and Brazil 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 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 five success in the United States. It has become Rihanna's third top ten single from Good Girl Gone Bad, her second top five hit from the album, and her fourth top five hit since her debut single Pon de Replay. 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 Australia, Austria, Belgium, Finland, France, Germany, Israel, The Netherlands, Spain, Switzerland and on the United World Chart.

Music and structure

"Don't Stop the Music" is a moderately fast dance groove composed in the key of F-sharp minor.[2] The tempo is set in common time.[2] The song samples Michael Jackson's 1983 single "Wanna Be Startin' Somethin'", which also sampled the Manu Dibango 1972 single "Soul Makossa", hence the "Mama say mama sa ma-makossa" that is interpolated in the bridge of the song. Jackson's trademark yells can be heard during the chorus and bridge.
