Background and composition[edit]
Georgia stated that "About Work the Dancefloor" was written "in response to the clubbing culture [she] experienced in cities whilst touring".[2] The song has been described as featuring "the tight electronic sequences of new wave", with its lyrics "as vulnerable as a handwritten note".[3] It also contains "driving, arpeggiated synth bassline" and "washed out, kaleidoscopic analogue synths".[4]
Release and promotion[edit]
In June 2019, remixes of the song by American DJ The Blessed Madonna were released.[5]
