Behind the Hype: Myles Smith Gets You Moving with “Stay (If You Wanna Dance)”

Ever had one of those songs kick in and suddenly everything feels lighter, brighter, and totally now? That’s exactly what Myles Smith is cooking up with his brand-new single “Stay (If You Wanna Dance).” This one isn’t just a tune — it’s a vibe, and it’s coming in hot.

From Luton to Global Stages

Myles Michael Smith-Thompson, better known as Myles Smith, hails from Luton, England. He learned guitar and piano as a kid, cut his teeth on open-mic nights, and slowly turned those intimate stages into massive audiences.

His sound? Think heartfelt songwriting meets pop edge. He broke through with hits like “Stargazing” and built his name off raw emotion, catchy melodies, and a knack for blending genres.

The Track: “Stay (If You Wanna Dance)”

Released in September 2025, “Stay (If You Wanna Dance)” marks a fresh chapter for Myles. According to him, the song was written just two days after a performance in Copenhagen — spurred by the moment, a rush of inspiration, and the desire to break out of routine.

At its heart, this track is about freedom. It’s about connection, choosing the instant, and giving in to the moment — a real “let’s drop everything and dance” anthem. Musically, it leans into upbeat pop with a driving rhythm and infectious energy that makes you want to move.
