[Verse 1]
Rhythm is a dancer; it's a souls companion
People feel it everywhere
Lift your hands and voices; free your mind and join us
You can feel it in the air
Oh oh, it's a passion
Oh oh, you can feel it in the air
Oh oh, it's a passion
Oh oh, oh, oh, oh

[Verse 2]
(This is the rhythm) You can put some joy up on my face
Oh, sunshine in an empty place
Take me too, turn to
And babe, I'll make you stay
Oh, I can ease you of your pain
Feel you give me love again
Round and round we go
Each time I hear you say:

[Chorus]
"This is the rhythm of the night
The night
Oh, yeah
The rhythm of the night
This is the rhythm of my life
My life
Oh, yeah
The rhythm of my life"

[Chorus]
This is the rhythm of the night
The night
Oh, yeah
The rhythm of the night
This is the rhythm of my life
My life
Oh, yeah
The rhythm of my life

[Verse 3]
Won't you teach me how to love and learn?
There'll be nothing left for me to yearn
Think of me and burn
And let me hold your hand
I don't want to face the world in tears
Please think again, I'm on my knees
Sing that song to me
No reason to repent

[Chorus]
This is the rhythm of the night
The night
Oh, yeah
The rhythm of the night
This is the rhythm of my life
My life
Oh, yeah
The rhythm of my life

[Chorus]
This is the rhythm of the night
The night
Oh, yeah
The rhythm of the night
This is the rhythm of my life
My life
Oh, yeah
The rhythm of my life

[Chorus]
This is the rhythm of the night
The night
Oh, yeah
The rhythm of the night
This is the rhythm of my life
My life
Oh, yeah
The rhythm of my life

[Outro]
This is the rhythm of the night
The night
Oh, yeah...

Bastille

Bastille is a British indie pop band. After releasing a limited single in 2010 and the Laura Palmer EP in 2011, the band was signed to Virgin Records. Following their signing, the band released two mix-tapes – Other People’s Heartache and Other People’s Heartache Pt. 2 — for free. In an interview with The Guardian, Dan Smith discussed the

Someone recently said to ‘The mixtapes were very clever, was that the label’s idea?’ Actually the label were completely against it; we were stealing and sampling illegally left, right and centre. The label ‘We want nothing to do with this.’ When it came to hosting the mixtapes, I had to register the website myself.

Preceding the release of their debut album, Bad Blood, the band released several singles — “Overjoyed”, “Bad Blood” and “Flaws”— to moderate commercial success. In February 2013, the band was catapulted into the charts by the album’s fourth single, “Pompeii”. The song was a commercial hit, going up to 5x Platinum around the world. In June 2014, “Pompeii” was confirmed to be the United Kingdom’s most streamed song ever. Unfortunately, it has since been overtaken.
