5 of Our Favorite Dua Lipa Covers

Dua Lipa is giving it all during her Radical Optimism Tour. Throughout her ongoing tour, the English-Albanian singer, songwriter, and actress has been covering a popular song in each city, expressing gratitude to her loyal fan base. Here’s why that’s important. 

It takes a lot of work to do what Dua is doing. Besides performing an impeccable setlist that includes hits like “Levitating,” “Maria,” and “Houdini,” she’s also connecting with her fans on a deeper level. To make her concerts extra special—and unique to the night’s attending audience—she’s also covering popular songs that are impactful in the city’s culture. Imagine attending Dua’s concert and her singing your city’s favorite romantic song? Well, it’s totally possible. She did that last night (December 1), singing Luis Miguel’s “Bésame Mucho” in Mexico City, Mexico. And that’s only day one of three. We are excited to see what she has in store for the rest of the tour.

From Dua Lipa’s cover of Kylie Minogue’s “Can’t Get You Out of My Head” to Luis Miguel’s “Bésame Mucho,” here are our top five covers thus far!
