Appearance of the Dancer[]
The dancer is a futuristic female amputee, whose right arm is replaced with a conical, yellow bionic limb. At certain times in the routine, it glows yellow from within. The dancer has a black undercut with a dyed turquoise fringe parted on the right. She has a pair of black shield shades. Her top is a black, sleeveless cropped top with a blue metallic sheen on the front. A geometric, pink chestplate is worn over her top. It is made of many geometric reflective panels and matches the aesthetic of her prosthetic. She wears shiny, dark, skinny pants. It has a black waistband with silver grommets and two long wallet chains attached. A black strap harness with silver fastenings is also worn on the left. The dancer wears shin height, violet combat boots with silver buckles. She accessorizes with a fishnet sleeve and multiple studded leather straps on the left and a pink sleeve with black adornments on the right.
In the intro cutscene and the final instrumental hook, the dancer becomes fully black with her features outlined in golden yellow. There is a lime green, glowing outline around the dancer.
Background[]
The background takes place at Pillars of Flow, a futuristic purple grid landscape with low-poly terrain. With flying vehicles, beams of light and a lot of low-poly various objects with neon outlines. During the chorus, the coach gets inside of a large flying low-poly object with a purple neon outline and spotlights shining to the beat, that also has a large futuristic city on top of the flying object. Inside the flying object, there are large shapes that light up bright pink to the beat of the song.
Gold Moves[]
There is 1 Gold Move (2 in Just Dance+) in this routine:
Gold Move 1 (Just Dance+): Lean down and raise your right arm in a semicircle.
Gold Move 2 (Just Dance+)/Gold Move 1 (Pre-Just Dance+/Just Dance VR): While facing left, cross your arms up.

Trivia[]

Routine[]
- Blinding Lights is the first routine to have a visibly disabled coach.
- Blinding Lights is also the first routine to have an amputee as the coach.
- Blinding Lights is the third routine to have bicolor pictograms, after Get Lucky and Ugly Beauty (怪美的).
- Blinding Lights, however, is the first one where the additional color is placed inside the body of the pictogram and not around it.
- The following anomalies can be seen on some pictograms:
- On one of the black pictograms, gray pixels can be seen around the arrow.
- On another black pictogram, the semitransparent arms lack the golden glow.
- On another pictogram, some darker pixels can be seen on the light part of the arrow.
- The coach appears on an unused version of the icon for the "Neon Touch" playlist on Just Dance 2020, where they have a different color scheme than the one in-game.
- Blinding Lights is the second routine to have an added Gold Move on Just Dance+, after Soy Yo.
- However, the Just Dance VR version doesn't reuse that Gold Move.
