All You Need (Raindance — Bieber Style)

A Bieber-style dancehall/Afrobeats R&B cover of Dave & Tems' chart-climbing "Raindance" — rap verses fully converted to close-mic falsetto, Rhodes piano + dembow groove, and a quietly romantic "I love you" that doesn't need volume to land.

Dave and Tems dropped "Raindance" as the lead single from The Boy Who Played the Harp back in October 2025, and the song hasn't let go since — 222 days on the Apple Music Global chart, a former UK #1, and a groove that somehow feels just as good at midnight as it does on a gray afternoon commute. It's a love song written in the register of a weather report: something quiet and inevitable, rain you don't bother running from.

This version leans all the way into the song's softer center. Where Dave rapped his way through vulnerability, the reinterpretation converts every verse into melodic singing — falsetto riding the Rhodes piano chords that anchor the original production, dembow percussion keeping the Afrobeats heartbeat underneath. The chorus, which Tems sang as an open-armed declaration, becomes something more like a confession here: close-mic'd, breath still audible, the kind of "I love you" that gets said quietly because it doesn't need volume to land.
The bridge brings the song's most grounded line into focus — I wanna do things different, make it last — which Dave wrote about choosing to rewrite the relationship script he grew up watching. Sung rather than rapped, it sits differently: less a statement of intent, more something said at 2 a.m. to the one person who's actually listening. Then the "lean with it, rock with it" breakdown reminds you the groove was always there, just waiting under all that tenderness.

[Verse 1] Stepped into the room and the whole world slowed Something 'bout the way you looked, I lost control I been playing it cool but my cover's blown Girl, I think you know, I think you know
Every time you smile I forget my lines I been overthinking but that's done tonight All the noise goes quiet when you're in my arms Baby, you're the calm inside the storm
[Pre-Chorus] And I don't need the thunder to remind me That without you, I don't know where I'd be All this rain is nothing, you're beside me And I feel it, yeah I feel it
[Chorus] It's the way my mind fallin' away In my heart I know You feel the same when you're with me You know I'm all you need You're where I wanna be My darling, can't you see?
[Post-Chorus] I love you, I love you I love you, I love you I love you
[Verse 2] Growing up I didn't think love felt this way I used to run from it but now I wanna stay I wanna do things different, make it last Write a new story, leave behind the past
You got something that I never want to lose Every single morning I'ma always choose you In the rain and thunder I'ma hold you close Girl you mean the most, yeah you mean the most
[Pre-Chorus] And I don't need the thunder to remind me That without you, I don't know where I'd be All this rain is nothing, you're beside me And I feel it, yeah I feel it
[Chorus] It's the way my mind fallin' away In my heart I know You feel the same when you're with me You know I'm all you need You're where I wanna be My darling, can't you see?
[Post-Chorus] I love you, I love you I love you, I love you I love you
[Bridge] Lean with it, rock with it Baby let me take my time with it Lean with it, rock with it Your finger, I could put a rock in it, yeah Lean with it, rock with it Let the rain fall, I'ma lock it in Lean with it, rock with it You already know you're everything
[Outro] Can't you see, can't you see You're where I wanna be In the rain you're all I need My darling, can't you see?
