== Lyrics ==
<pre>(Are you ready?)

My only shining star
You're my only guiding star
(5,4,3,2,1! Shining star!)

Meet my only shining star
They'll make all your dreams come true
And if you meet my only shining star
They can do the same for you

Shining down from up above
Shining down on me and you
Shining down is what they do
So you can dance, the whole night through

Meet my only shining star
They'll make all your dreams come true
And if you meet my only shining star
They can do the same for you

Shining down from up above
Shining down on me and you
Shining down is what they do
So you can dance, the whole night through

(Tell me, tell me, where you are
My only shining star
You're my only guiding star
(You're my only guiding star!)

Be my only shining star
Make all dreams come true (Come true!)
And if you meet my only shining star
They can do the same for you (They can do the same for you!)

D to the A to the A to the N to the A to the C to the C to the E, dance baby!!</pre>

== Song Production Information ==
=== NAOKI ===
Long before the DDR series was created, I imagined songs like this while I walked down the street in my very soul. Before production on DDR was done, I thought at a time a sense of inlayed puzzles. Eight years ago, I found it very refreshing to hear numbers such as this in my old style and the pressure felt by the production of a HYPER-EUROBEAT number. Songs like [[CAN'T STOP FALLIN' IN LOVE]] incorporate euro music into the beat in our system, but as time goes by and music transforms, arrangements have been made of these kind of songs to follow music trends.

== Video Production Information ==
None.
