The single also reached number three in Australia—where it was certified Platinum for sales exceeding 70,000 copies—and number 10 in Romania and the United Kingdom. "Dance with Me" received international acclaim and has been performed in different versions, including a special Walt Disney version and a Spanish version entitled "Baila Conmigo". The song is used in a crucial scene in the disability-dance film Musical Chairs (2012).
