I personally love this song because red is my favorite color to wear, and I will be wearing it to a dance.
This song is easy to understand and yet wonderful. It is when someone notices another person for the first time because they are all glamoured up. I do not think it is shallow at all. If you listen to his voice, it is clear that he is astounded and genuine about his feelings.
I often feel like people can act a certain way in the right circumstances, or dress very well, and all of a sudden we can see what we did not before. This song is more about that feeling than anything. It's also about killing it with an outfit, which every woman wants to do--but especially this one.
I have reason to believe that "the lady in red" (stating "the" in the title describes her importance) is an outcast of sorts because she has never been noticed. But on this magical night, she has been more than noticed--and by everyone.
The man dancing with her feels special and like they are the only two in the room, but be careful with this song. It never explicitly states that he is anything special to her. However, romantic me likes to this she will in time. As aforementioned, sometimes you see something suddenly that you never have before.
