"Lose My Breath" is a song recorded by American group Destiny's Child for their fifth and last studio album Destiny Fulfilled (2004). It was written by Beyoncé, Kelly Rowland, Michelle Williams, Rodney Jerkins, LaShawn Daniels, Fred Jerkins III, Sean Garrett and Jay-Z. The song was partially developed by Jerkins before being presented to Destiny's Child; its chorus was afterwards rewritten by Jay-Z. An uptempo R&B and dance-pop song, "Lose My Breath" has a marching, military percussion-led instrumentation with different sound effects in its backing track. Columbia Records released the song as the lead single from Destiny Fulfilled on October 23, 2004.
"Lose My Breath" received positive reviews from
The song's accompanying music video was directed by Marc Klasfeld and filmed in Los Angeles, California. It featured Destiny's Child performing dance choreographies portraying three different sets of characters. The song was performed during the group's tour Destiny Fulfilled... and Lovin' It (2005) and on numerous televised appearances and awards ceremonies in 2004 and 2005. The American Broadcasting Company (ABC) used "Lose My Breath" as the official song for the NBA playoffs in 2004 and 2005.
Writing and production
"Lose My Breath" was written by Beyoncé, Kelly Rowland, Michelle Williams, Rodney "Darkchild" Jerkins, Fred Jerkins, Sean Garrett, LaShawn Daniels and Jay-Z. The production of the song was handled by Jerkins, Beyoncé, Rowland and Garrett.[1] Record producer Jerkins, who had previously collaborated with the group for "Say My Name" (2000), had worked on "Lose My Breath" without informing Destiny's Child. Beyoncé and Williams heard the drum instrumentation of the track and they enjoyed it with the latter feeling that the song was nothing like the mainstream radio sound. They went to their bandmate Kelly Rowland presenting the song.
Alongside Jerkins, the group asked for help from American rapper Jay-Z who immediately created a chorus including the lines "Can you keep up" without hearing the track. The group took his chorus and wrote the verses and
Music and lyrics
"Lose My Breath" is an uptempo
Lyrically, the female protagonists challenge their male "suitors" to keep up instead of being full of empty promises; the women further feel that "He's not fulfilling you like he says".
Release
Following the group's two-year hiatus, "Lose My Breath" was considered their comeback release.
A dance mixes EP was released on December 7, while a Remix 2 Pack containing two remixes by Peter Rauhofer was released on August 16, 2005.[23][24] On October 29, 2004, a maxi single was released in Australia, featuring the album version of the track, two remixes and a new song "Why You Actin'".[25] In the United Kingdom, two CD singles and a 12-inch single were issued on November 1, 2004.[26] The song was included on the group's compilation albums #1's (2005) and Playlist: The Very Best of Destiny's Child (2012).[27][28]
Critical reception
Jenny Eliscu of Rolling Stone referred to "Lose My Breath" a "sweat-soaked" track and a "percussive sex romp" where Destiny's Child "pant in time to a marching-band beat."[29] Nick Reynolds of the BBC called the military drumming of the "fantastic" track "exciting" and its keyboard stabs "nasty".[15] A writer for Vibe hailed it as a "pounding, animalistic piece of music – as urgent as a war cry" with a "thunderous tribal beat".[12] In an album review of Destiny Fulfilled, Tom Sinclair of Entertainment Weekly felt that "Lose My Breath" opened the record with "a brisk enough start" and concluded, "While it's no 'Bootylicious,' it's got more nervous energy and verve than almost anything else here".[9] A writer of Billboard magazine felt that the song was "love's exhilarating start".[30] Kelefa Sanneh of The New York Times described it as "suitably calisthenic".[31] AllMusic's Stephen Thomas Erlewine considered the song to be an album highlight.[6] Eric Henderson of Slant Magazine called the song a "thigh-snapper" and said it responsible for the "increased use of paradiddling drumsticks as sex toys".[16] Barbara Ellen of The Observer felt that "Lose My Breath" was "of the exemplary standard" of the band's previous albums, Survivor and The Writing's on the Wall.[32] In his review, Alex MacPherson of Stylus Magazine chose the song as one of the album's best and wrote,
It [Destiny Fulfilled] shoots its load quickly, although just as effectively: "Lose My Breath" and "Soldier" are stunning, both displaying the Beyoncé trademark of creepily submissive lyrics matched with dominatrix vocals and arrangements to superb effect. The former kicks off with a martial beat and a call of "hit me!" which sounds like a military command, and proceeds to put you through a series of moves without pause for breath, Beyoncé and her minions cracking the whip every time you even think of flagging.[14]
Accolades
In 2005, "Lose My Breath" was nominated in the category for Best R&B Vocal Performance by a Duo Or Group at the 47th Annual Grammy Awards.[36] At the 23rd Annual ASCAP Pop Music Awards, "Lose My Breath" was recognized as one of the Most Performed Songs in 2005 along with the group's other song "Soldier".[37] Sean Garrett won a BMI Urban Award at the 2006 BMI Awards for the song.[38]
Clem Bastow from Stylus Magazine put "Lose My Breath" at number ten on his list "Top Ten Drum Beats You Are Powerless to Resist". He wrote: "Rodney Jerkins's masterstroke of a production technique... propels this... penultimate... Destiny's Child gem into the stratosphere."[39] The song was ranked at number 39 in the annual Pazz & Jop mass critics poll of the year's best in music in 2004.[40] In 2013, Weber from Vulture included "Lose My Breath" at number 19 on her list of the 25 best songs by the group.[13] Houston Chronicle's Joey Guerra also included the song in his list of the group's best songs, writing that it gave a chance to Rowland and Williams to "shine vocally".[41] The same year, Erika Ramirez and Jason Lipshutz of Billboard magazine put it at number nine on their list of "Beyonce's 30 Biggest Billboard Hits".[17] In 2014, Official Charts Company (OCC) writer Justin Myers listed the song as one of the essential "pop gems" in the UK, praising the group for coming back in 2004 with "classic DC [elements]: super-speedy singing, a frantic beat and dramatic melody".[42]

It spent seven weeks there, peaking at number four in its fourth week on November 29.[60]
Music video
Background and synopsis
The music video for "Lose My Breath" was directed by
It's really a dance-off between a more sophisticated 'in-fashion' Destiny's Child versus a more 'street' Destiny's Child. And in the end a third Destiny's Child even more fierce takes over. It's a lot of hard work for us because we have to learn three routines for the same song. People will be shocked because it's different for us. They've never seen us really dance.[2]
The video mainly takes place in an alleyway, where the members of Destiny's Child are having a dance-off. As the song opens, it begins with Beyoncé, Williams and Rowland walking, representing the "fierce Destiny's Child" dressed in stilettos and fur.
Release and reception
The music video of "Lose My Breath" premiered on
Erika Ramirez and Jason Lipshutz writing on behalf of Billboard magazine felt that Destiny's Child "came back strong after a three-year hiatus, showing off their dance skills in the video" for "Lose My Breath".[17] Jess Harvell of the website Pitchfork Media criticized the "weird mink stole" Beyoncé wore in the clip.[67] A writer of People felt that the group borrowed from their old looks for their outfits in the video "glammed up in stilettos and fur".[62] Justin Myers from the Official Charts Company considered it to be a proof that the group was back in 2004, and showed them being "totally kick-ass – so pretty autobiographical".[42] The music video was nominated for the Best Dance Video category at the 2005 MTV Video Music Awards, but lost to Missy Elliott's "Lose Control" (2005).[68] In 2014, The Guardian editor Michael Cragg ranked the video for "Lose My Breath" in his list of the ten best videos by Beyoncé. He remarked that the clip featured bigger budget than the group's previous visual efforts and praised the concept, saying, "It's a simple idea executed perfectly, especially when Beyoncé gives herself side-eye, flicks her hair and then watches while one of the other Beyoncé's dances like a creature possessed."[69]
Live performances
The first live performance of "Lose My Breath" was during the opening of the 2004 NFL season on September 9 for which Destiny's Child was surrounded by smoke from fog machines. Chicago Tribune writer Chris Malcolm reported, "I think what I love most is the blank look on some of the hard-core Boston football fans who showed up early to watch kickers practice and instead got a live version of 'Lose My Breath.'"[70] On October 25, 2004, the group performed "Lose My Breath" during the
