Lyrics
New York City boy You'll never have a bored day 'Cause you're a New York City boy Where Seventh Avenue meets Broadway When you're a boy, some days are tough Lying on your bed playing punk rock and stuff Home is a boot camp you gotta escape Wanna go and wander in the ticker tape You feel, the deal, is real You're a New York City boy So young, so run Into New York City New York City boy You'll never have a bored day 'Cause you're a New York City boy Where Seventh Avenue meets Broadway You can return it's calls (Party on, party on, party on, p-party on Party on, party on, party on, p-party on) You feel, the deal, is real You're a New York City boy So young, so run Into New York City

Hello, MTO here.
I'd like to briefly introduce myself, as I'm actually playing a different song on my guitar.
It's a secret which song I'm playing, but it's a bit hard and I'm that skilled, so you may never hear it...
Well, I made the in-game charts for "NEW YORK CITY BOY" which I'm proud of, so please enjoy playing it.

The original song was released by the PET SHOP BOYS last year, isn't it.
I'm sure many people have heard of it due to being recently released.
This DANCE EXPRESS Hi-Speed version contains a gentle rhythm and melody, accentuated by soft whispering vocals, being one of few songs with male vocals in the IIDX series. I think it's an impressive song.
It's personally one of the most enjoyable and fairly difficult songs among the DANCE EXPRESS Hi-Speed tie-up songs in LIGHT7 mode.
