On her Radical Optimism Tour, Dua Lipa continues to cover local artists from each city she performs. In Boston, she surprised fans with a cover of Aerosmith’s 1998 hit “I Don’t Wanna Miss a Thing.” The pop star, known for hits like “Levitating” and “Houdini,” strips back her usual disco-pop production, leaning into a rock-inspired arrangement while spotlighting her incredible voice.
Lipa reimagined the Aerosmith classic by leaning into its emotional weight. Her performance traded Steven Tyler’s raspy intensity for a smoother vocal delivery that emphasized vulnerability. The crowd at TD Garden in Boston sang along joyously, adding to the excitement of the night. Any fans of Lipa can continue to speculate on what exciting covers she will choose for the next leg of her tour.
