Dua Lipa Shares Her Eureka Moment Journey Amid ‘Radical Optimism’ Album Release!
Dua Lipa credits the song 'Illusion' on her new album 'Radical Optimism' as her creative turning point. While writing the song, Dua felt a newfound strength and a shift towards a more positive outlook, which she describes as 'radical optimism'. This feeling was further amplified by the song's powerful musical arrangement.
Singer-songwriter Dua Lipa, who recently released her album "Radical Optimism", has spoken up on her eureka moment. The singer shared that it was a song called ‘Illusion’, where she felt that lyrically she got the radical optimism, reports ‘Variety’. Dua spoke with ‘Variety’ in an interview and shared that she felt very strong in the moment when she was writing that song. The singer said: “I felt in a stronger power of position, because I was like maybe before, I would have fallen for something like this and now I can dance with the illusion, and it’s something for me too, you know? I think musically also, when Kevin and Danny came together and it was the live drums and the synths and the big music breakdown, in my head the big dance moment, when all those came together it was just a feeling.” Dua Lipa’s ‘Radical Optimism’ Album Set To Release on May 3!

Dua further mentioned, quoted by ‘Variety’, “I had a feeling and I was like, now I have something to bounce off of. And in that first week, even though they're in the same world but they’re very different, I wrote ‘Illusion’ and then I wrote 'Happy for You' and 'Happy for You' is a much bigger ballad, in a way. Somewhat. I wouldn’t really classify it as a ballad. Because I don’t do songs that are slow and big and emotional, but I just put them in the ballad section, I’m like, I don’t do those.” Dua Lipa Takes a Casual Stroll Through Bustling Streets of Rajasthan; Locals Fail To Recognise Her (Watch Viral Video).

“But this feels almost in a world where I can really have this epic singing record that I was able to be very vulnerable and open in. But still sonically, it has this tremolo sound that I’m really obsessed with and it’s Kevin’s voice replicated. We use it as a sample throughout. That was just a moment for me to be really vulnerable and open and honest in what was happening in my life at that point. But I feel overall, in this whole record, I just grew as I was writing,” she added.
