Background[]
The original song Better Off Alone by Alice Deejay was released in 1999. It has since become an international hit, establishing itself as a electronic/trance music classic. Alan Walker and Vikkstar123 have been huge fans of the song, inspiring them to remake the classic with a new version. They reached out to Dash Berlin, the original songwriters of the song. They liked it, and Ryan Fieret (the duo's frontman) later joined production.
The artwork features a compact disc, reminiscent of the 2000s aesthetic. A pre-save link was launched, where one winner has a chance to win the signed disc containing a special mix. It was also promoted on Sidemen Charity Match. The song was released as Vikkstar's music debut, alongside the music video on YouTube.

It starts with Walkers in a room, where they are seen producing many CDs. Suddenly, a Walker chased by Red Nexus soldiers outside alerts them, prompting the others to escape before it gets raided. They passed on the CDs until they eventually reach the Red Nexus building, where Alan Walker, Dash Berlin, and Vikkstar play the song through their speakers and celebrates.
Lyrics[]
This could be a good night, for good times and you look like a good time
We're dancing to dancing in the moonlight
Now I want you bad
Can you make me feel better
This could be a good night, for good times and you look like a good time
We're dancing to dancing in the moonlight
Now I want you bad
Can you make me feel better
Do you think you're better off alone
I think you better come along
Can you make me feel better
I think you better come along
This could be a good night, for good times and you look like a good time
We're dancing to dancing in the moonlight
Now I want you bad
Can you make me feel better
Do you think you're better off alone
I think you better come along
So if you think you're better off alone
I think you better come along
Can you make me feel better
This could be a good night, for good times and you look like a good time
We're dancing to dancing in the moonlight
Now I want you bad
Can you make me feel better
Do you think you're better off alone
I think you better come along
