Another boppy, bold dance track, on “Illusion” Dua lets it be known — she’s grown, knows what she wants, and she’s very much NOT interested in any games.
“Ooh, what you doin’?/Don’t know who you think that you’re confusing/I be like, Ooh, it’s amusing /You think I’m gonna fall for an illusion,” she sings on the catchy hook.
As for the visual, it’s giving aquatic vibes, blue skies, city skyline, synchronized swimming, coordinated choreo, and we actually do find it all very amusing.
Set for a May 3 release, Radical Optimism will consists of 11 songs. "Illusion” makes for the third track we’ve already sampled, including the previously released, “Houdini” and “Training Season.” All of which, according to the official press release, are “infused with the energy of Dua’s hometown, London" and embody “the rawness, honesty, confidence and freedom of ‘90s Britpop.”
