"We Dance On" is a song performed by British hip hop group N-Dubz, released as the group's eleventh overall single and the lead single from their third studio album, Love.Live.Life. The song was also the second single released from the soundtrack to the film StreetDance 3D. The song features English house music duo Bodyrox. The song was co-written and co-produced by the members of N-Dubz and Bodyrox.[1] Additional vocals are provided by British recording artists Luciana and Nick Clow, both artists have also been credited as being involved in co-writing the song.[1]

"We Dance On" was released on 20 May 2010 in Ireland and on 23 May 2010 in the United Kingdom, accompanied by a previous N-Dubz single "Strong Again" as its B-side. The song was written to portray dancing as a metaphor for working through the trials and tribulations of everyday life. Its lyrics evoke a message of resilience, overcoming prejudices and maintaining faith to pursue your dreams.[2] "We Dance On" received positive reviews for its warm, inspirational, diverse and urban pop nature.[2][3][4]

The song reached the top 10 in Ireland, the United Kingdom and the UK R&B Chart. It is N-Dubz's highest-peaking single in Ireland, second highest-peaking single in the United Kingdom and eighth top-10 hit on the UK R&B Chart. Despite reaching the top 10, the song missed out a place on N-Dubz's Greatest Hits album. The accompanying music video does not feature N-Dubz or Bodyrox but teenagers and young children star in resemblance of N-Dubz. N-Dubz performed the song on television programme The Dome in Stuttgart, Germany.[citation needed]
