==Background==
The background alternates between four different scenes, each corresponding to the elements of water, fire, earth, and air respectively. During each coach’s solo portion, the background remains on the scene corresponding to the element that coach represents. Then, during the chorus and outro, the scenes cut in order from water to air. The rotation effect from the Positions music video is occasionally employed as a transition between scenes.
During the bridge, the routine alternates between two backgrounds, one a combination of the water and fire scenes, and the other a combination of the earth and air scenes, depending on the pair of coaches that is actively dancing.
===P1===
The "Water" scene takes place in an area with a pool and different sizes of bubbles flowing everywhere, there are also bubbles flowing in the background, with also different sizes of bubbles.
===P2===
The "Fire" scene is filled with fiery dust. It has a shiny red floor with glowing white lines on it, tall metallic pillars with gold decorated bases, red glass panels moving and spinning around, and in the far background there's flames and a giant gray orb.
===P3===
The "Earth" scene takes place in the Endless Garden, an outdoor location with the coaches on a platform of stained glass tiles. The scene is filled with lush grass and trimmed hedges. Pink, white, blue, and orange flowers are seen throughout the greenery. In the distance there's columns covered in vines and flowers. Blue butterflies and orange are seen floating around the dancers.
===P4===
The "Air" scene is with a pinkish-grey ground with glittery ribbons floating past like waves. There are broken marble pillars in the ground, and you could see bigger pillars that fit the aesthetical color in the distance.

==Trivia==
===General===
*Positions is the twelfth song by Ariana Grande in the main series. 
**Including Put Your Hearts Up (), it is her thirteenth song in the franchise.
**It is also her first and only song to be a exclusive.
*"F**k it" and "s**t" are censored.
**However, Tellus still lip-syncs the former.
**In the preview, "f**k it" is censored such that the background vocals can be heard singing "running", and "s**t" is censored with the "sh" still audible. In the final game, the censored segments are made completely inaudible.
*In the initial releases for , the artist name was missing, due to the credits string in the .json file being empty.http://jsonviewer.stack.hu/#http://jdnow-api-contentapistoragest.justdancenow.com/songs/Positions_1645099118343/Positions.json
**This was fixed upon the third release of the map, on April 28, 2023.
*Each of the coaches' names are the Latin word for their respective element (Aqua means water, Ignis means fire, Tellus means land, and Aer means air).
===Routine===
*Positions was the third -exclusive map to be initially free for a limited period before requiring a subscription, after Woman Like Me and Drum Go Dum.
**It was the fourth such map in the entirety of , after Troublemaker, Woman Like Me, and Drum Go Dum.
*Positions was the first -exclusive map from the era to be released in .
*The pins representing Scorpio (a water sign) and Virgo (an earth sign) have been switched such that they are worn, erroneously, by Tellus and Aqua respectively.:File:Position switched signs.jpg
**This mistake was mentioned by the official Twitter account in a thread on June 27, 2022.https://twitter.com/justdancegame/status/1541451302907138048
*The following editing mistakes can be noticed in some of the Gold Move pictograms.
**In the pictogram for P1 and P2’s Gold Move 1, P2’s glow overlaps P3, resulting in a magenta and sky blue glow over the latter.
**In the pictogram for P3 and P4’s Gold Move 1, P3’s glow fades away around P2’s body, and its left arm blends into P2.
*The title card is shown bearing the when the routine is played with a low internet connection.
*In the trailer for Season 1: Astral, the tarot cards dub the coaches as "The Water" for Aqua, "The Fire" for Ignis, "The Earth" for Tellus, and "The Air" for Aer.
*In the preview, the pictograms are default-colored.
*In the preview, for a brief moment when the background is changing during the second chorus for the first time, half of Tellus and Aer disappear.
*In the .json file, the "OriginalJDVersion" string reads "9999".
*Aqua is the only coach who does not spin during her part of the song.
*Despite the map having a title card, the cover used in is identical to their score card cover, and the logo is absent from the information screen.
**This is also the case with Happier Than Ever.
