"Rush" is a song by Australian singer Troye Sivan. It was released through EMI and Capitol on 13 July 2023 - the accompanying music video, shot in Berlin, was released the same day.

The title of the song was partly inspired by a poppers brand of the same name, yet also describes the feeling of dancing with "Someone hot".

According to Sivan, the song is meant to reflect his experiences of feeling "Confident, free and liberated", while being the "Most connected to the music and community" surrounding him. He elaborated:

Shaad D'Souza of Pitchfork awarded the song their "Best New Track" distinction and observed that "Rush" is "unconcerned with anything but pure ecstasy".

The writer went on to praise the singer for producing a "sublime, orgiastic summer anthem".

Kaelen Bell of Exclaim! found Sivan's "Horny new single" a "Thumping, kinetic dance floor banger".

Writing for British music magazine Dork, Stephen Ackroyd called it "A bum-slapping bop" and "the most fun you'll have all summer".

Back to the disco we go !!!

Troye don’t listen to the hate you’ve gotten for the music video. It’s absolutely incredible. The cinematography is so beautiful and the choreography and visuals are so retro. You did an amazing job!

im so happy to see him getting attention again, he's such a talented artist and sings very well

This MV really feels like a party, even at the end when you see Troye waking and smiling, that’s exactly what I feel when I leave a party at 5-6am and the sky is already getting lighter, the freedom and happiness you feel then is unmatched

dude this video was like a fever dream in the best way possible- the color palettes, the cinematography, the way everything just swirls and blends together- this video and the song combined were like a feast for the senses and hoo boy did it taste amazing

Shout out for Troye and his team for having CC an option, a lot of official music videos don't. <3

I appreciate the dancing in this video. It's co-coordinated but also fluid at the same time.

Heard this song on Spotify and it was stuck on my head the whole day so I decided to search it can't say I'm disappointed

QuinnTheSuperStar

This was AMAZING!!!! He truly captured the retro sound & mainly the visual so perfectly. While still somehow making it feel modernized so it's not "old" feeling. Excellent all around ????✨

1st time to hear it and I am already loving it! The chorus is so catchy! ♥ I feel the rush!

peripettibon8167

just beautiful it’s sexual in nature but it evokes the emotion that comes with sexual freedom and liberty and the beauty of sexuality in every form no shame no hiding pure raw art not only within the visuals but the music that troye has exquisitely mastered

toddberry8113
