"Levels" (stylized as "LE7ELS") is a progressive house piece by Avicii. An early instrumental version of the song was first played by Avicii during an appearance on ''Essential Mix'' in December 2010, while the final version with Etta James's vocals was first performed at the Ultra Music Festival in March 2011. "Levels" was officially released on 28 October 2011 and peaked at number one in Sweden and on the Dance music charts in United States and became a top ten hit in Austria, Belgium, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Croatia, Denmark, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, the Netherlands, Norway, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom.〔Chart history of ''Levels'' at (acharts.us )〕 "Levels" contains a vocal sample from the 1962 gospel-inspired "Something's Got a Hold on Me" by Etta James, as written by Leroy Kirkland, Pearl Woods and James. It is the same Etta James sample used in Pretty Lights's 2006 song "Finally Moving" from album ''Taking Up Your Precious Time''. Flo Rida's single "Good Feeling", which became a worldwide hit in late 2011, was primarily influenced by "Levels" and its Etta James sample.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.ascap.com/ace/search.cfm?requesttimeout=300&mode=results&searchstr=883351100&search_in=i&search_type=exact&search_det=t,s,w,p,b,v&results_pp=25&start=1 )〕 "Levels" was featured in the pilot of ''Arrow''. ==Composition== "Levels" is a progressive house song containing elements of soul, EDM, and house, featuring heavy and high-pitched synths, a quiet bassline and beat.
