"Dance" is a song by Filipina singer Nina from her 2011 studio album Stay Alive. It was originally released in a different version on August 23, 2011, but was immediately pulled out of the radio after the album's release was postponed. In October 2011, the song was, again, released as Stay Alive 's official lead single under Universal Records and received limited airplay. The song was written by Alexandra Prinz and Michael Gordon Lange, and produced by Ito Rapadas. It talks about a woman who wants to get back with her lover after breaking-up with him. Missing her man, she goes to the club and dances her way to forgetting him and escaping loneliness.

The single was accompanied by two different official music videos, both directed by Sean Lim. Version 2 was released in December 2011, and features Nina in Gaga-ish costumes, doing choreographed dance moves at the same time. Her co-Sessionista Duncan Ramos made a guest appearance in the video. Nina portrays a detective and an alien at the same time in the video, where she investigates a crime scene regarding alien abduction, when she is later revealed as the suspect alien. Despite the fact that two videos were filmed for the song, the other version was never released. She has performed the song live in Happy Yipee Yehey! and Party Pilipinas, where she also launched Stay Alive.

"Dance" was well received by OPM critics, being given positive response by music reviewers. The Philippine Star described the song as an "upbeat track with a catchy melody," while Philippine Entertainment Portal called it a "fast track that fans will surely delight in." The song was given very limited commercial promotion, and its video was not played on myx until March 2012—which led Nina's fans to questioning Universal's marketing strategy. The song was supposed to be released internationally, alongside the album but Universal canceled promotion for unknown reasons.
