Background

"Dancing's Not A Crime" was written by Brendon Urie, Jake Sinclair, and Mike Viola. The song is included as the eighth track on Panic! at the Disco's sixth studio album, Pray for the Wicked (2018). Produced by Sinclair, the track is a lively and theatrical blend of pop-rock and dance influences, embodying the upbeat and celebratory themes of the album. In interviews, Brendon Urie described the song as a playful reflection on living unapologetically and enjoying life. With lyrics that highlight carefree dancing and youthful energy, the song resonates with the overall joyous and confident tone of Pray for the Wicked. The track features vibrant instrumentation, Urie's signature dynamic vocals, and an infectious groove that emphasizes its dance-friendly nature. The album Pray for the Wicked was largely inspired by Urie's time on Broadway, where he starred in Kinky Boots. This theatrical influence is evident in "Dancing's Not A Crime," as the track combines polished pop production with energetic, stage-ready delivery. Urie's ability to mix rock roots with contemporary pop elements contributed to the song's appeal among fans and critics alike.
