From Bad Dates to Bops: The Inspiration Behind the Song
Dua Lipa shared a glimpse into the inspiration behind “Training Season” in a recent press release. After several disappointing dates, Lipa stormed into the studio, exclaiming, “TRAINING SEASON IS OVER.” A session filled with laughter and creativity followed, birthing a track that’s as much about personal growth as it is about dating woes. “It’s about being done with telling people—men, in this case—how to date you right. But it’s also a reflection of my own growth, feeling more confident, clear, and empowered,” Lipa explains.
This song symbolizes a turning point, where the focus shifts from seeking perfection in others to finding someone who’s at your level, ready to grow alongside you. While a release date hasn’t been set, fans can load up on Dua Lipa vinyl (paid link).
