"Drip Drop" is a song byAzerbaijani singerSafura Alizadeh, written byAnders Bagge,Stefan Örn, Piotr Wass and Sandra Bjurman, and represented Azerbaijan at theEurovision Song Contest 2010 in May 2010. Alizadeh's song was selected by a jury from the Azeri broadcasterİctimai Televiziya və Radio Yayımları Şirkəti (İTV).[1] On 29 May 2010 "Drip Drop" gained the fifth place at theEurovision 2010 final.
Euromedia and Luxen Group of Companies on behalf of İTV received manyremix offers for "Drip Drop". Taking a selective attitude, they approached DJs Maverick and Alex Guerrero for the assignment.[2] Their remixes went in rotation on various European radio stations.[2]
The shooting personnel included the video directorRupert Wainwright,choreographer Charles Lawrence and stylist Tanya Gill. All were invited toUkraine on behalf of İTV by the Euromedia and Luxen Group of Companies.[4] The shooting took place inKyiv on the weekend of 16 April and lasted 37 hours with Safura being accompanied by Ukrainian dancers.[4] The music video was presented on 29 April 2010.[5] In April 2010 BIP Records released "Drip Drop" as a digital single inBelgium and the local radio channelMNM added the song to its playlist.
The video is focused on irresistible love. According to Knight, it features "the story of the girl that wants to be in love, but the guy is just not that into her and the choreography showcases that story" and "this comes up to the mix of contemporary and urban styles".[4]
