Japanese

何でもないコトで
ぶつかって涙出たりして
ワガママな私の隣で
変わらない笑顔くれた

絶対のCommunication!
やっぱこれが大事でしょ!?
やった! Congratulation!
特別な人へ

夢いっぱい
めーいっぱい
心からアナタへの♥を
捧げたい  届けたい
もう胸がいっぱい

もっと愛がいっぱい
甘い甘い  Candy  みたいな♥を
作りたい  足りない
でもお腹いっぱい

ふたりの愛②傘さして歩く
雨がやんで虹がでて
ずっと忘れないでいて

もっと愛がいっぱい
甘い甘い  Candy  みたいな♥を
作りたい  足りない
でもお腹いっぱい

English

With a coat that is nothing
Collisions and tears
Next to me who is selfish
You gave me an unchanging smile

Absolute Communication!
After all this is important!?
Hooray! Congratulation!
To someone special

Full of dreams
Very full
I love you from the bottom of my heart
I want to dedicate I want to deliver
My heart is already full

More love
I love you like sweet sweet Candy 
I want to make it It's not enough
But I'm full

Two loves walking with an umbrella
The rain stops and a rainbow appears
Never forget

More love
I love you like sweet sweet Candy 
I want to make it It's not enough
But I'm full

BeForU STAFF

This is a super cute pop song which follows the tone of LOVE SHINE, a typical tune of Riyu Kosaka.
I have a good feeling that a degree of positivity emerges. It clears your heart.
Anyways, I hope you have fun playing in a full-on party mood! (laughs)

DanceDanceRevolution

NAOKI MAEDA

This is a solo number by Riyu Kosaka, one of the original BeForU members who was selected from the first DDR audition. It's a happy hardcore-styled J-POP song which acts as the sequel to LOVE♥SHINE, a very popular song from the previous title DDR EXTREME. It's the perfect song for when you want to be bright and cheerful.

Staff Comments

Seiya Murai

Riyu Kosaka's lyrics and singing voice, alongside MAEDA's melody are cute and great, right?
It's a song from an album, but I thought it was really perfect for pop'n~.

aonisai

This child had a very difficult delivery~; but it was worth doing, and she's very cute@
When I thought of the "I live in a mobile phone" setting, it went well! That's what I thought.

wac

I just played CANDY☆, which was crossed over in pop'n 8, but doesn't Riyu's voice sound younger? Well, she's young to begin with.
Happy. Dance. Pop. Love which seems like sweet, sweet candy. Under the same umbrella. These keywords are too bright and strongly stimulating for us living in darkness. It's a cute song.

tam

It's fall, love, and decolla. This is mayo's first character design!
The setting of "delivering your feelings" is very cute, isn't it?@ She's perfect as bonus CG!
Anyways, I'll never forget when aonisai saw the heart on her head and said "it looks delicious, like a peach...". Don't eat it~!

Gochou

I first saw it on mayo's PC.
Seeing the mobile phone sliding in and out, made me want to eat eel for some reason.
During the gameplay, decolla is bouncing along to this up-tempo song.
I often fail to send e-mails, probably because decolla doesn't live in my mobile phone.
