Interesting facts and trivia about New Rules - Alison Wonderland Remix. By Songfacts®.

Here, Dua Lipa sings about trying to move on from an ex. She explained to the BBC, "It's about keeping your distance from someone who's bad for you. I'm setting some rules down so [that I] won't go back to that person." Asked to clarify the rules, Lipa replied: "One: Don't pick up the phone, you know he's only calling 'cause he's drunk and alone. Two: Don't let him in, you'll have to kick him out again. Three: Don't be his friend, you're only going to wake up in his bed in the morning. And if you're under him, you ain't over him!"

The song's music video was filmed at Miami Beach's Confidante Hotel on Collins Avenue. It was directed by Henry Scholfield, who also shot Dua Lipa's "Lost in Your Light" clip. The visual's concept was dreamt up by Scholfield and Lipa after hours discussing female empowerment over tea in the singer's home. Dua Lipa told Billboard magazine she, "wanted to show women looking after each other and that we have each other's backs."

Lipa said: "It's the breakup song that I wish I had when I was breaking up with someone. This is me taking charge."
