ong information

"Let's Dance" was co-written by Richard Stannard, Julian Gallagher, Ash Howes, Martin Harrington, Richard Breen, Jason 'J' Brown and Sean Conlon. It was co-produced by Stannard and Rowe. The video to Let's Dance was to be their last and final video as the next two were made after they disbanded in 2001. Sean bowed out of the making of the video in June 2001 due to illness and this sparked rumours that Five were on the verge of breaking up (he was replaced by a cutout-cardboard version of himself in the video). The video features Five playing dual roles, both themselves, and as oddball documentary film crew trying to document their own filming. It also features Five poking fun at the music industry such as other boy bands, the use of scantily-clad girls, and fast cars.

Chart success

Although out of the spotlight for over a year, "Let's Dance" debuted at number one on the UK charts, making it Five's third number one single, and stayed at the top spot for 2 weeks. The single also debuted at number one on the Argentina singles chart. The single also had chart success in parts of Europe and Australia, debuting in the top 5, although just missed out peaking the top 10 in New Zealand.
