Appearance of the Dancer[]
The dancer is a man with black shoulder-length hair and a mustache. He wears black glasses, a multicolored track jacket (purple, black, pink, and mint green), black pants, a yellow glove, and yellow high top sneakers.
Background[]
The background first takes place in a karaoke bar with two grey female statues holding white orbs. This purple and blue room contains a large screen displaying pink flowing clouds and a woman based off the statues dancing. In the chorus, the big screen behind the man zooms in and going into a bright cloudy scenery with white Grecian-style monuments and the statue woman dancing in colors. Two panels color over the scenery, one yellow and one blue and pink. The background pans over in nighttime, the clouds turning blue and the girls playing keytars. A rainbow often appears in the background. Before the screen zooms back out, the background pans over in nighttime, the clouds turning blue and the girls playing keytars.

Trivia[]
General[]
- What Is Love is the first song to be covered by Ultraclub 90 in the series.
- After playing the song, when the Autodance comes up, it says "Ubisoft Cover" as the artist instead of "Ultraclub 90".[2]
- This was fixed in the final version. However, when viewing an Autodance for this song, the Autodance plays the original version of the song performed by Haddaway instead of the cover by Ultraclub 90.
- When viewing the song in the menu, the title under the menu icon reads "What Is Love?" (with a question mark). However, the title next to the album coach reads "What Is Love" (without the question mark).
- A Community Remix contest was held for this song, though no Community Remix was ever released.
- In a leaked Autodance, the artist is credited as Ubisoft Cover.[3]
Classic[]
- The footwear the backup dancers have on resemble the ones worn by Leilani.
- They are also wearing the sunglasses that are the same as the coach from You Spin Me Round (Like a Record). The colorful screen with the inverted backup dancer in the background is also related to that routine.
- It is revealed in the Behind The Scenes video for the song that the background dancers were shot with only one dancer.[4]
- In the intro, a male announcer off-screen calls out, "Calling up from the stage #17 for our next song, 'What is love,' 19th stereo." before the song starts.
- This makes What Is Love the second song to feature a spoken word element, the first being the remake of That's The Way (I Like It). They are followed by I Love Rock ‘N’ Roll.
- "Number 17" could be in reference to the song being featured on Just Dance 2017.
- In the Just Dance Now notification for the official release, Haddaway was erroneously credited as the artist instead of Ultraclub 90.
- On Just Dance Now, the song ends as soon as the dancer can be seen getting ready to leave the screen, while on the console version, it ends when he just crouches.
- A sticker of the monument in the background can be unlocked in Just Dance 2020 by dancing to Ugly Beauty (怪美的) three times.
Mashup[]
- Unlike in other Duet Mashups, the players switch places at times and do not switch back before the next appearance, making some of them the opposite of their respective original player (for example, Shut Up and Dance’s P1 acts as P2, and vice versa). The Mashup of What Is Love is the only one in the Just Dance series to use this gameplay technique.
- The Mashup of What Is Love is the second one that does not use a fading transition to change from one coach to the other, after that of Maneater.
- In the beginning, P1 can be seen sliding slightly towards P2.
- Gold Move 2 is only counted for P2, although only P1’s pictogram is outlined in gold.
- Also, it is a new Gold Move due to P1's Gold Move being performed instead of P2's.
- This also makes What Is Love (Mashup) the fourth Mashup to have a new Gold Move, after Dynamite, Take On Me, and You’re On My Mind.
- This makes What Is Love (Mashup) the second duet in the franchise to have an unequal number of gold moves between dancers, after Kimi Ni Bump.
- Also, it is a new Gold Move due to P1's Gold Move being performed instead of P2's.
- In the Just Dance Unlimited servers, there is an unused thirty-second preview where the background is absent.[5]
