Dua Lipa recently released a video for “Illusion,” the third single from her upcoming album, Radical Optimism.
The music video, directed by Tanu Muino, shows Lipa alongside a slew of dancers, high divers and synchronized swimmers at the Piscina Municipal de Montjuïc in Barcelona, Spain.
Lipa co-wrote “Illusion” with Caroline Ailin, Danny L. Harle, Tobias Jesso Jr., and Kevin Parker. Harle and Parker co-produced the song.
“‘Illusion’ was the first song Caroline [Ailin], Danny [Harle], Tobias [Jesso Jr.], Kevin [Parker] and I worked on together, and it really broke the ice for the record,” Lipa said in a press statement. “It’s about knowing what you’re getting yourself into, but staying for the hell of it. The joke’s on them, it’s the fun of playing someone at their own game because ultimately you won’t fall for an illusion.”
Lipa previously released “Houdini” and “Training Season” from the forthcoming 11-track album. “Houdini” debuted at No. 11 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, while “Training Season” entered the chart at No. 27.
The 11-track Radical Optimism, which is Lipa’s first proper LP since 2020’s Future Nostalgia, is due out on May 3 via Warner Records.
