"Alors on danse" (pronounced [alɔʁ ɔ̃ dɑ̃s], French for "And so we dance") is a song by Belgian singer Stromae. It was released in September 2009 in Belgium and in February 2010 in the rest of Europe. The song reached number one in Belgium, Albania, Austria, Bulgaria, the Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Italy, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Poland, Romania, Russia, Slovakia, Switzerland and Turkey, and also reached number one on the European Hot 100 Singles chart.
The song also became a success in North America after its release on 1 April 2010 in Canada, receiving airplay in Québec from NRJ Radio stations throughout the province, as well as CKOI-FM. Four months after the European release, almost one million copies worldwide were sold. The song spent 57 weeks on the German Singles Chart, making it the 40th song to spend one year or longer on that chart and the song with the 31st longest run.[1] According to Francophonie Diffusion, "Alors on danse" was the most-played Francophone single worldwide of 2010.[2] As of July 2014, it was the 83rd best-selling single of the 21st century in France, with 334,000 units sold.[3]

Music video
Directed by Paul Van Haver & Jérome Guiot. At the beginning of the video, a man (played by Stromae) is sitting in his office. After a hard day's work, he apparently wants to visit his child, but as he arrives at his wife's house he is told to leave. He proceeds to walk down the street, and as he does this a homeless man steals his coat. He then enters a pub. At first he does not appear to enjoy himself, but as he becomes more inebriated he begins to sing on a small stage. After his performance he passes out, and is brought back by an unknown man, possibly his boss, from the pub to his office desk.
Covers and remixes
Pitbull covered the song under the name of "Guantanamera". American singer Lumidee released a cover version of the song along with rapper Chase Manhattan in March 2010. DJ Petro Panayoti released an Instrumental Remix at Byblos Club Africa in May 2010. Kanye West and Gilbere Forte released a remix together in August 2010.
In July 2018, a group of saxophonists (led by soloist Stéphane Mercier) performed an arrangement of the song at the Arcade du Cinquantenaire in Brussels for world leaders attending the NATO summit.[6] In May 2019, Dubdogz's remix was officially released under Musical Freedom. The song is featured in The 100's sixth-season episode The Gospel of Josephine.[7]
British DJs and producers Joel Corry and Jax Jones sampled the song in their 2021 track "Out Out" featuring British singer Charli XCX and American rapper Saweetie.
