Lyrics

Neon sings were shining bright
And in the street lights you turned your back
I saw your shadow was fading away
Well, I lost you, all of a sudden

Good-by, my love, I love you so
Before you went away, I didn't know
Memories awake only in my dream
When I think I lost them, they all come back to me

You said that you love me
Look at me softly
You kissed me and held me all night so tight

I know what your feeling
I know what your dreaming
All that you feel and everything in your mind
The memories are so clear
So many good years the sweet ones I hold dear

Can't hold back the tears
I need you by my side
These feelings I can't hide
So don't walk away boy
Baby wasn't you bring back
your LUV TO ME

Song Production Information

beatmania completeMIX 2

I got permission (?) from TIGER YAMATO to include the disco mix version from beatmania IIDX and GOTTAMIX as the ANOTHER.

Playing disco mix on a standard cabinet may feel somewhat different, awakening new emotions.

beatmania IIDX

dj nagureo

A classic from beatmania 3rdMIX, remixed by the real disco tracker(?) tiger YAMATO. He is a rather scary person who is usually hard to approach, and I had a hard time talking to him.
With his beloved MC500 and DX-7, he was able to finish the job with a frighteningly fast hand.
Other than the information in his profile, nothing else is known about him, and we look forward to seeing him unmasked in the future.

DanceDanceRevolution

The Eurobeat movement in the dance scene exploded in the '80s, but in the '90s it developed into a very different style from that of the '80s.
LUV TO ME, included in this edition of beatmania IIDX, is a masterpiece that allows the player to enjoy the concentrated flavor of the '90s Eurobeat scene while maintaining a high level of difficulty for the game.
Although it has now been arranged in multiple ways and used in various music games, the essence and brilliance of this powerful Eurobeat song from this game aren't diminished.

Video Production Information

VJ GYO

This movie was made using only animations that I received as material from beatmania, 2ndMix, and 3rdMix, and is also used as a generic video for dance songs.
The materials were the best in this respect because they are complete animations, but since the length of each animation is very short, they had to be used over and over again. In doing so, I tried to be creative in the way I combined the materials to see how I could make them not seem monotonous.
Another point I emphasized was the sense of speed with a slight sense of intoxication.
I have produced four other similar movies, and it would be great if the traditional beatmania fans and enthusiasts in particular would be pleased with them.
