Dua Lipa began to write her name in the music industry. Lipa gained attention from the specialized media as an artist after the release of her debut album in 2017, "Dua Lipa" (self-titled). It won the third position on the UK Albums Chart and featured eight singles. "New Rules" and "IDGAF" have become global hits, reaching the number 1 position in countries such as Australia, Belgium, Ireland, and the United Kingdom, as well as reaching the top ten positions in more than 30 countries, including the USA for "New Rules" . The album featured the hits "One Kiss" with Calvin Harris, "Be The One", "Scared To Be Lonely" with Martin Garrix, "No Lie" with Sean Paul and many others. It later received 5 nominations at the BRITs Awards, the most important British awards ceremony in music. She also won with her debut album two Grammys, "Best Dance Recording" for her song "Electricity" with Silk City, and moreover the "Best New Artist" award. "Dua Lipa" (self-titled) is the most streamed female album of all-time on Spotify.
But Lipa's great success would even come in her second album "Future Nostalgia", which made the promising young woman a true pillar of world pop music. Having hits such as "Don't Start Now", "Break My Heart" and "Levitating" , the album is currently the most played female album of the 2020's decade on Spotify and secured a Grammy at the 2021 ceremony for "Best Pop Vocal Album" and was present among the nominations for "Album of the Year". It also won the Brit Award for "Album of the Year". "Future Nostalgia" is the 2nd most streamed female album of all-time on Spotify. "Don't Start Now" became her most streamed hit on Spotify, nominated for "Record of the Year" at the Grammys. It was the biggest female song of the year 2020.
The British phenomenon has captured an all-time record on the Billboard Hot 100, all thanks to the success of "Levitating". The track became the longest-charting female song on the chart, with 77 weeks, being the 4th song overall to reach this astonishing feat. The same track became the biggest hit of 2021 in the United States and globally without ever reaching #1, proving once and for all that the disputed #1 position on the Billboard Hot 100, that she still doesn't have reached, doesn't define the success of an artist. For Lipa, it seems that longevity is more important than an instant success.
Her newest hit with Elton John and PNAU, "Cold Heart" is one of the biggest hits of 2022. She had during that year a sold-out global stadium and arena tour with "The Future Nostalgia Tour", marking her as a definitive icon of the beginning of the 2020's decade, especially in the European continent, her main music market.
She is set to begin her third album cycle in 2023, while also making her expected acting debut that year with "Barbie" and "Argylle" in 2024.

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I keep dancing here with my eyes closed
Like nothing matters anymore
And I like that, kinda like that
And I like that, kinda like that
And I like that, kinda like that
You're everything I want and more
I think you're down but I'm not sure
And I like that, kinda like that
And I like that, kinda like that
And I like that, kinda like that
Make it hard to talk and see
I'm just where I wanna be
Holding you too close to me
You never leave my glass empty
Ooh, we got nothing
Ooh, and that's all we wanted
Broken people in the streets
Yet they're beautiful to see
Everything is incomplete
Yeah, it feels a lot like me
Ooh, we got nothing
Ooh, and that's all we wanted
And I like that, kinda like that
And I like that, kinda like that
I'm way too damaged to go home
I keep dancing here with my eyes closed
Like nothing had to zen me more
And I like that, kinda like that
Make my heart run back and forth
You're everything I want and more
I think you're down but I'm not sure
And I like that, kinda like that
And I like that, kinda like that
And I like that, kinda like that
In Dua Lipa's Like That, the singer expresses their feelings of being too damaged to go home, and instead, they choose to dance with their eyes closed like nothing matters anymore. The singer enjoys this feeling and likes the idea of not having to worry about anything. The repetition of "kinda like that" reinforces the idea that the singer is unsure of their feelings, but they still enjoy the moment they are in. The singer's heart races back and forth because the person they want is there, but they are not sure if they feel the same way.
The chorus describes the physical closeness between the singer and the person they want. They enjoy holding the person close to them and the feeling of never having an empty glass around them. The singer and the person they want have nothing, but it is all they wanted. This could imply that they have been searching for something real, and with nothing else around them, they appreciate the little things.
The second verse starts off by describing the broken people in the streets, who are still beautiful to see. Here, the singer could be talking about themselves, feeling incomplete and broken. However, they still find themselves beautiful, just like the broken people in the streets. The repetition of "Ooh, we got nothing" shows that even though they have nothing, they find joy and contentment in each other's company.
Overall, Like That highlights the singer's struggles with their emotions and their journey to finding happiness in the little things, even when they feel broken and incomplete.

I'm way too damaged to go home
I am too broken and hurt to return to my previous life
I keep dancing here with my eyes closed
I distract myself from my pain by losing myself in the music
Like nothing matters anymore
I feel numb and disconnected from everything around me
And I like that, kinda like that
Despite my pain, I find comfort in this feeling of detachment
Make my heart run back and forth
You bring excitement and uncertainty to my life
You're everything I want and more
You fulfill my desires and exceed my expectations
I think you're down but I'm not sure
I sense that you may also be damaged, but I am unsure
Make it hard to talk and see
Being around you makes me feel so intensely that it's difficult to focus
I'm just where I wanna be
Despite the chaos, being with you is where I feel most content
Holding you too close to me
I want to be as close to you as possible, both physically and emotionally
You never leave my glass empty
You take care of me and keep me fulfilled
Ooh, we got nothing
We have no material possessions or external validation, but that doesn't matter
Ooh, and that's all we wanted
All we need is each other and the feelings we create together
Broken people in the streets
Even though we may seem damaged and hopeless, we are still beautiful and worthy of love
Yet they're beautiful to see
Our flaws and struggles are what make us unique and strong
Everything is incomplete
Life is a constant work in progress, and that's okay
Yeah, it feels a lot like me
I relate to this sense of unfinishedness and uncertainty
Like nothing had to zen me more
By being with you, I am able to let go of my worries and find inner peace
