Happy New Year, Sergei! Thank you for overcoming so many obstacles to bring so much beauty into the world in 2020. You make such a difference every day without even realizing... Wishing you a safe and successful 2021, with many blessings and open doors and new opportunities!
***
All the footage in this video is from dances and appearances Sergei Polunin made in 2020.
For those who wonder: unlike with most of my music videos, with the exception of a couple of the “Breathe“ frames (the outdoor dance), which had been slowed in the source video, and the ending shot - I did NOT alter the timing on any of these dances. All dances in this video are Sergei dancing in real-life timing.

LYRICS:
I used to get nervous inside
Look in the mirror, don’t even try
Something is changing, it feels amazing
And I got no reason to hide
My legs started shaking
Man, there ain’t no faking
All these moves that I’m making
With all these rules that I’m breaking
And I look to my left
And I look to my right
Not a soul in sight
I’m gonna dance like nobody’s watching
Nobody’s watching
So I’ll dance like I don’t even care
I’m gonna move like it’s not an option
I put my hands in the air, keep ‘em there
Gonna dance like nobody’s watching
It’s who I am
This is how I dance
It’s who I am
Dance like nobody’s watching
You don’t like my style, I don’t feel bad
When you see me work it, does it make you mad
You think I’m reckless, I couldn’t care less
I’m the best friend that you never had
I can teach you how to shake it
Man, you cannot fake it
All these moves that we’re making
With all these rules that we’re breaking
Look to my left
And I look to my right
I am by your side
I’m gonna dance like nobody’s watching
Nobody’s watching
So I’ll dance like I don’t even care
I’m gonna move like it’s not an option
I put my hands in the air, keep ‘em there
Gonna dance like nobody’s watching
It’s who I am
This is how I dance
It’s who I am
Dance like nobody’s watching
I don’t even care if the world is watching
If they don’t like it, that’s their problem
I don’t even care if the world is watching
If they don’t like it, that’s their problem
Everybody dance like nobody’s watching
Nobody’s watching
We can dance like we don’t even care
We’re gonna move like it’s not an option
Let’s put our hands in the air, keep ‘em there
Dance like nobody’s watching
This is our chance
Everybody dance
This is our chance
Dance like nobody’s watching
