About This Song
Tate McRae released Just Keep Watching on May 30, 2025 as the fourth single from the soundtrack accompanying the film F1. The track arrived via RCA Records in partnership with Atlantic Records and Apple Video Programming. Running for two minutes and twenty-two seconds, the song features a pulsing beat and driving bassline designed to match the adrenaline of Formula 1 racing. McRae wrote the track alone and handled production duties to ensure the sound aligned with the high-speed aesthetic of the sport.
Commercially, the anthem reached number eight on the Billboard Global 200 chart. Domestically it secured the top spot on the US Hot Dance/Pop Songs chart, marking McRae's third number-one hit on that specific list. The song's themes of perseverance and speed resonated beyond standard music metrics, leading to its adoption as the official theme for Sky Sports' revamped F1 coverage starting in the 2026 season.
Broadcast exposure extended further when NBC utilized the track for Winter Olympics promotions in early 2026. Critical recognition followed shortly after release; McRae earned her first Grammy nomination in 2026 for Best Dance Pop Recording. In September 2025, the song also took home two MTV Video Music Awards, adding significant accolades to its growing resume.
