Dressing To Kill
Fey Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm dancing!
Under the magic
Of the red moon
Hypnotized by the light
This evening is on
This evening is awake
Energized by the light
Feeling so high
Dressing to kill
Facing the night
I'm leaving all my troubles behind
I'm dancing this feeling keeps me moving
Dancing the whole night
I'm dancing this feeling keeps me grooving
Dancing to whole night long
Dancing to whole night
This music running through our veins
There's no where to hide
I feel I'm burning
Losing control
On your mind
Full of joy, so alive
Feeling so high
Dressing to kill
Facing the night
I'm leaving all my troubles behind
I'm dancing this feeling keeps me moving
Dancing the whole night
I'm dancing this feeling keeps me grooving
Dancing the whole night long
I'm dancing this feeling keeps me moving
Dancing the whole night
I'm dancing this feeling keeps me grooving
Dancing the whole night long
Dancing the whole night
I'm dancing, I'm dancing
Keep dancing, keep dancing
Dancing the whole night long
Dressing to kill
Facing the night
Crossing the line
Moving so fast
I'm leaving all my troubles behind I'm dancing...
I'm dancing this feeling keeps me moving
Dancing the whole night
I'm dancing this feeling keeps me grooving
Dancing the whole night long
I'm dancing this feeling keeps me moving
Dancing the whole night
I'm dancing this feeling keeps me grooving
Dancing the whole night long
I'm dancing this feeling keeps me moving
Dancing the whole night
I'm dancing this feeling keeps me grooving
Dancing the whole night long
I'm dancing this feeling keeps me moving
Dancing the whole night




I'm dancing this feeling keeps me grooving
Dancing the whole night long

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Fey's song "Dressing To Kill" are all about the joy and freedom that comes with dancing the night away. From the very first line, the singer is "dancing!" and feeling the magic of the moment, "under the magic / of the red moon." The light from the moon has them feeling "hypnotized" and "energized," ready to leave all their troubles behind and revel in the freedom of the dance floor. The beat of the music is "running through our veins" and the singer feels the heat of the moment, "burning" and "losing control," but in the best possible way.


Throughout the song, the repetition of the phrase "dressing to kill" highlights the idea that the singer is not only dressing up for the night out, but also ready to conquer the evening with their moves and their attitude. They are "facing the night" and "crossing the line," ready to "keep dancing" "the whole night long." The song is not just about the physical act of dancing, but also about the emotional and mental release that comes from letting go and living in the moment. By the end of the song, the singer is still "dancing," still "moving so fast," and still "leaving all [their] troubles behind," all while feeling the pure joy of being fully alive in the present moment.

Justicia para Vértigo, FEY saca esta joya como sencillo, por favor
#DreessingToKillSingleFeyPlease  

Freddy Chávez

Vértigo fue una reinvención brutal que no volví a ver en ninguna cantante de habla hispana, tenía una visión de la música que sería popular 12 años después de su lanzamiento, reina del electro latino sin duda

Juan Manuel Favila Delgado

Tienes toda la razón, es una lastima que su mejor trabajo no haya tenido más promoción y más sencillos.

Johnpicowboy

Vertigo, uno de los mejores discos synthpop  de la década pasada. Dressing To kill es de las más comerciales, pero  la más bailable. Me gusta el show, pero insisto, nada que ver con la grata experiencia de verlo en vivo. Más momentos como estos por favor Fey!

Juan Manuel Favila Delgado

Así es, además de ser el mejor disco de Fey, es de los mejores discos de una cantante en español.

Generación TN

No maaaaaaa! Se escucha bien actual y tal parece inedita pues nadie creería que salio hace 13 años..! Ojala suene en las radios en México, esto se escucha bien vanguardista y PERFECTO,,,!!!

DNL CJ

¡No puedo dejar de escucharla! Es simplemente perfecta y ninguna cantante latina ha hecho algo igual... 
¡felicidades Fey! 

Yisus SA

Una pena que no haya cantado "Adicto a mi cuerpo" o "Provócame". Pienso que un "Anti-Tour" como el de Kylie le sentaría de maravilla: conciertos íntimos sólo para verdaderos fans con canciones que no fueron singles

Gonzalo Arvietti

@Jhon Montana el que tu dices es un tour despues de este

Jhon Montana

+Jesus Sauco LAS CANTO EN EL AUDITORIO PERO POR DERECHOS DE AUTOR NO LAS PUDO SACAR EN EL DVD
