To promote the song, the group performed for the first time on Globo TV on the "Ding Dong" panel of the Domingão do Faustão TV show on February 4, 2018. The music video, directed by the pair of directors Os Primos, was released right after the song is played, counting more than 1 million views in less than 24 hours.

The group performed the song for the first time on the show in Florianópolis, on February 9, which is part of the 15 Anos Tour.

Background

[edit]

After the release of the third and final single from the group's second studio album, C'est La Vie (2003), the song "Vem Cair na Zueira" in November 2003, rumors that member Luciana Andrade would leave the group started to appear in the media.[3] On February 11, 2004, the news was confirmed and Luciana left the group.[4] The group also released two albums between 2004 and 2005 with the remaining four members, and by the end of 2005 several media reported that the group would split the following year.[5] In December 2005, the group officially announced its end.[6] In 2012 rumors surfaced that the group would meet again, after a social networking move calling for the return of the Rouge, with the band's former music producer Rick Bonadio, who would use the premiere of his show, Fábrica de Estrelas, in the Multishow, to bring them together.[7] In 2013, the group met briefly - without Luciana again - to record two new songs.[8] Due to bureaucratic issues, the singers did not go on tour - as promised - and the meeting ended only with the participation in the reality musical and two songs that ended up not being worked and released commercially.[9] In 2016, the four members met for a return attempt,[9][10] but the meeting was only held in mid-2017, when actor and manager Pablo Falcão, organizer of the "Tea of Alice" party, contact with the five members to carry out a commemorative edition of the party.[11]

After the invitation accepted, on September 12, 2017, it was announced that the group was back with the five members to hold the commemorative shows.[12] Then, after the success of the concerts held together with the "Tea of Alice", the group announced exclusively to the magazine Contigo!, who would definitely be back, announcing a tour for the year 2018, in addition to the release of a new DVD.[13] In parallel to this, Pablo Falcão officially became the group's manager, announcing also recording new songs.[11] On November 10, 2017, the Rouge team confirmed to PopLine that the group would release a new single as early as 2017 and that the title of the song would be "Bailando."[14] Weeks later, in an interview with Jornal do Commercio, Pablo confirmed that the song would be released in January 2018, and that the music video for the song would be recorded in December.[11] On November 13, 2017, the group entered the studio to record the song.[15] On December 1, 2018, in an interview with PopLine, the singers revealed that composer and music producer Umberto Tavares had written "Bailando."[16] Although promising the song for January, Pablo said that the song would be released before the carnival of 2018, without giving further details, although he promised that the song would be released in national network.[17]

On January 29, 2018, the cover of the single was released, showing each of the five members wearing a windbreaker of each fluorescent color, with the title scratched above their heads, as well as square fluorescent scratches around them. The photo was made by Rodolfo Magalhães and the cover art by Hugo Pontes.[18] On the same day, a "pre-save" was initiated in the service of streaming Spotify, besides the group to have summoned the main vehicles of the press for a meeting in São Paulo to show the track and to grant interviews to promote the new work.[18] On February 4, 2018, the song was leaked on the internet, in bad quality.[19] On the same day, Pablo published a music video teaser on his Instagram page with the caption: "Leaked, right? Wait!".[20] On February 4, 2018, "Bailando" was released, becoming the debut song with the original line-up since 2003.[21]

Composition and lyrics

[edit]
Upon receiving the song, the member Fantine added new verses, as well as melodies previously not in the song.

"Bailando" was composed by Umberto Tavares, Jefferson Junior and Fantine Thó, and was produced by Tavares.[22] The song was given to the girls by Tavares, and when they arrived at the studio, they decided to tinker with the intention of adding more substance, with unpublished verses written by Fantine.[23] According to her, "we add" the energy of sound has power, comes that everything can happen, being happy is allowed, comes here that the world is colored. "Composition is a continuous attempt and a continuous process of maturing to be able to say and find the words that translate what is really in our heart ... our dream of unity, acceptance, peace, understanding can not stop."[23]

"Bailando" is a pop and dancehall song with strong elements of Latin pop,[24] which had already been confirmed by the member Li Martins, who added: "We always work a lot with Latin because it was kind of an identity of ours. that, with a new job, it could not be different.We needed to print this in this new work".[17] Producer Umberto Tavares, in an interview with Billboard Brasil, explained:" I wanted to bring their identity. I wish I did not stay away from what people keep from them in remembrance". [...] "I knew their discography and this relationship with the Spanish was marked in my mind".[24]

Critical reception

[edit]

The editors of the newspaper Correio said that the song "has a Latin footprint and a remarkable refrain, as well as the band's biggest success in the "Ragatanga" in the 2000s".[25] Already the writing of the IBahia called the song of "a new dance hit and with a Latin hint."[26] Leonan Oliveira of the Show Livre defined "Bailando" as a song "lively and [that] mixes expressions in Spanish with Portuguese - a characteristic that has always been with the girlband."[27] The Southern radio FM website has emphasized the fact that the song has a "chewing gum refrain."[28]
