"I Don't Dance" is a song co-written and recorded by American country music artist Lee Brice. It was released on February 18, 2014 as the first single and title track from Brice's third studio album of the same name. [1] Brice co-wrote the song with Rob Hatch and Dallas Davidson. [2]
The song is set in the key of C-sharp major with a vocal range of G♯3-G♯5 and a main chord pattern of C♯-F♯-G♯-C♯. [3]
The song received a favorable review from Taste of Country , which called it "personal, like almost every song on the Hard 2 Love album, but also powerful and experimental like Brice’s early recordings." The reviewer added that "it’s the thump of a deep drum — perhaps a tympani — and loud cry of the pedal steel that provide the song’s signature and any emotional reaction that comes while listening." [4] Matt Bjorke of Roughstock gave the song four stars out of five, writing that "the production and melody behind the lyrics is mid-tempo and right in the core pocket of what Lee Brice does best." Bjorke called it "a strong single choice and a song that should be the beginnings of a successful upcoming album." [5]
The music video was directed by Ryan Smith and premiered in April 2014. [6]
"I Don't Dance" debuted at number 59 on the U.S. Billboard Country Airplay chart for the week of February 22, 2014.
