"The Club Is Alive" is a song by British boyband JLS. It was released in the United Kingdom on 2 July 2010 as the lead single from their second studio album, Outta This World. It was also included in the American EP version of their debut album.

Background

Its lyrics sample "The Sound of Music", composed by Richard Rodgers, to lyrics by Oscar Hammerstein II and originally performed by Mary Martin in the stage musical of the same name, but was later popularised by Julie Andrews in the 1965 film.[1] It was written by Andrew Frampton, Savan Kotecha and Steve Mac and produced by Mac. Inspired by the musical film The Sound of Music, the song was originally intended for American rapper Flo Rida, but he declined.[2]

Critical reception

Robert Copsey of Digital Spy gave the song a positive review stating that JLS had "managed to successfully step outside their comfort zone", giving the song four out of five stars.[3]

Music video

The video for the single was shot in May 2010 during the band's visit to Los Angeles, California, while recording their second album.[4] Directed by Frank Borin, it takes its inspiration from the popular US TV series Entourage. The video shows the band turn up to a party in a nightclub in downtown L.A., where they also perform their song on a revolving stage.

Promotion

JLS performed the song on the fifth live semi-final of series 4 of Britain's Got Talent.[5] On 11 July 2010, JLS performed the song on Chatty Man and also gave an interview.[6] The song was also performed at the Radio 1's Big Weekend in Bangor, Wales and T4 on the Beach, as well as on GMTV, Magic Numbers, T4 Stars of 2010 and The 5.19 Show.

Chart performance

"The Club Is Alive" debuted on the Irish Singles Chart on 9 July 2010 at number four where it remained for two consecutive weeks, marking the band's third top five hit in the country. On 11 July 2010, the song debuted on the UK Singles Chart at number one. It became their third number one single, selling 84,283 copies in its first week.[7][8] Despite the initial success of the song, it dropped six places to number seven the following week and then a further two places to number nine on 25 July 2010. On 1 August 2010, the song dropped a further seven places to number sixteen.
