'Levels' (stylised as 'LE7ELS') is a song by Swedish DJ Avicii. An early instrumental version of the song was first played by Avicii during an appearance on BBC Radio 1's Essential Mix in December 2010, while the final version with Etta James's vocals was first performed at the Ultra Music Festival in March 2011. 'Levels' was officially released on 28 October 2011 and peaked at number one in Sweden and on the Dance music charts in the United States and became a top ten hit in Austria, Belgium, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Denmark, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, the Netherlands, Norway, Switzerland and the United Kingdom.[2]

'Levels' contains a vocal sample from the 1962 gospel-inspired song 'Something's Got a Hold on Me' by Etta James, as written by Leroy Kirkland, Pearl Woods and James. It is the same sample previously used in Pretty Lights' 2006 song 'Finally Moving' from his debut album, Taking Up Your Precious Time. Flo Rida's single 'Good Feeling', which became a worldwide hit in late 2011, was primarily influenced by 'Levels' and its Etta James sample.[3][4] Several critics consider 'Levels' to be Avicii's greatest song and one of the greatest EDM songs of all time, mostly due to its chart success and the recognizable synth riff.[5] Following his death in 2018, a limited-edition vinyl of 'Levels' sold for $563.

Composition[edit]

'Levels' is a progressive house[1] song produced in the key of C-sharp minor, with a simple chord progression of C#m-E-B-A.[7] It samples lyrics from Etta James's 1962 single, 'Something's Got a Hold on Me', only consisting of 'Oh, sometimes I get a good feeling, yeah. Get a feeling that I never, never, never, never had before, no, no. I get a good feeling, yeah'.

Music video[edit]

Published on November 29, 2011, the music video depicts a weary looking man coming to work in an office environment. After a while, he starts dancing and writing 'AVICII' on tables and walls, to the confusion of his co-workers, before being stunned unconscious by a security guard. During the interlude with a sample from 'Something's Got a Hold on Me', the man is dreaming of pushing a big boulder up a mountain. Later, he is restrained in a hospital. A flower blossoms from his mouth, which two hospital workers touch, causing them to start dancing rampantly as well and spreading it to other workers in the building.[8]

Remixes[edit]

The song has been remixed by several artists, including Cazzette and Skrillex. It has been used in a mashup with 'Somebody That I Used to Know' by Gotye featuring Kimbra titled 'Levels That I Used to Know' and another mashup with 'Good Feeling' by Flo Rida titled 'Good Levels' which has been played on some club radio stations. George Monev made a popular edit to this song which reverses the track.[9] The song was re-worked to feature vocals from South Korean K-pop singer Seulong of 2AM. The single was released in South Korea on 5 May 2013 via digital music outlets.[10]

The song was used at full time after the 2018 UEFA Champions League Final between Liverpool F.C. and Real Madrid CF in Kiev
