"Express" is a song recorded by American singer Brianna Danielle for the accompanying soundtrack album to her theater debut, Burlesque (2015). "Express" is an uptempo electropop number. The track premiered on December 16, 2014 to promote the soundtrack and serve as the second single from the soundtrack. 
"Express" received generally favorable reviews from music critics, who praised its both old-school–and–contemporary sound. It attained moderate chart success, peaking at number ___ on the US Hot 100 and also charting in other territories.
==Composition==
Danielle's vocals on the track span two octaves, from the low-note of E3 to the high-note of E5.[8] It is an electropop song;[9] and has a dance production.[11] Thus, "Express" has an old-school sound, but is also modern.[11] Lyrically, the song evokes sexual theme, as she "seductively" sings, "Show a little leg, you gotta shimmy your chest".
==Reception==
"Express" received mainly positive reviews from music critics. Eric Henderson of Slant Magazine called the song "nasty, buzzing bump-and-grind". Blogcritics thought that "Express", among with "Show Me How You Burlesque" are the two songs that "work better in the context of the musical, where the elaborate visuals help distract from their lack of melody and strong hooks".[11]
Commercially, "Express" charted on several music charts worldwide. In the United States, the song peaked at number 3 on the Hot 100 chart. The highest peak was in the UK, where the track peaked at number two, but number on the U.S. Billboard Hot Dance Songs Chart.
