"Better When I'm Dancin'" is a song recorded by American singer-songwriter Meghan Trainor for the soundtrack to the film The Peanuts Movie, based on the comic strip of the same name by Charles M. Schulz. Trainor co-wrote it with Thaddeus Dixon and co-produced it with her brother Justin Trainor. Epic Records released it on October 14, 2015, as the first and only promotional single from the soundtrack. Backed by an instrumentation of salsa-inspired drums, the tropical song has house influences and optimistic lyrics that were inspired by Trainor's fans.

Philip Andelman directed the music video, which was released on October 14, 2015.
