“rides a glittery disco-funk sample”

AllMusic, Neil Z. Yeung4

“an invitation to dance the night away in spite of cares and troubles”

The fourth video with Michel Gondry, and a Grammy.

A 2019 single from No Geography. Michel and Olivier Gondry made the video, released on 6 February 2019.1 It won Best Dance Recording at the 62nd Grammy Awards.3

It didn't enter the UK Singles Chart, but reached No. 2 on the physical and vinyl charts.1

Twenty years after "Let Forever Be" in 1999: four times with the same director, and the award came on the fourth.6

That the award came on the fourth rather than the first feels, to me, like this band all over.

Translated from the Japanese original.
