"Original Don" is a song by musical project Major Lazer and the Partysquad from their 2011 extended play of the same name. It was released as a digital download on 4 November 2011. The song charted in the Netherlands.
An undished version of "Original Don" had surfaced on the Internet months before its official release.[1] The song's initial cover artwork was inspired by the fictional character Don Draper.
A music video to accompany the release of "Original Don" was first released onto YouTube on 8 December 2011 at a total length of two minutes and forty-two seconds.[2] It features an American family, dancing around carrying various blade weapons. Diplo makes a cameo in the video.
A portion from the middle of the song was prominently featured in a television advertisement for The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas, which aired in the summer of 2013 through the winter of 2013–14.[4]
The version featuring the Partysquad appeared on Dancing with the Stars during James Maslow and Peta Murgatroyd's freestyle dance number.[5]
Florida Gators gymnast, Bridget Sloan, used the song as her floor music for the 2015 season.[6]
