Lyrics

Romaji

Let me see you groove tonight
Shake it, shake it, shake it, shake it

Hajimaru hirogaru kono yoru samayou
Katamaru (katamaru) jikan no naka de
Wasureru yakusoku tatazumu kankaku
Midareru biito to issho ni

Nagareteru kono grooving sound
Itsu datte it's D-O-U-B-L-E

Owaranai kono grooving sound
Tomaranai kono super sisters!!
D-O-U-B-L-E

Shake it, shake it, shake it, shake it
Let me see you groove tonight
Let me see you groove tonight
Let me see you groove tonight
Let me see you groove tonight

Asa made everybody hadaka de move your body
Karada de kanjite
Tomadou ashimoto tsuzukeru step and step
Toke au rizumu ni hikarete

Nagareteru kono grooving sound
Itsu datte it's D-O-U-B-L-E

Owaranai kono grooving sound
Tomaranai kono super sisters!!
D-O-U-B-L-E

Shake it, shake it, shake it, shake it
Let me see you groove tonight

Asa made everybody hadaka de move your body

Shake it, shake it, shake it, shake it
Let me see your groove tonight

Trivia

• Shake has never been in a CS beatmania IIDX release.
• According to dj TAKA, he almost didn't put Shake in beatmania IIDX 2nd style due to the death of double member Sachiko, who died back in May 1999 from a subarachnoid hemorrhage, four months before beatmania IIDX 2nd style came out.
• Shake cannot be be found on any beatmania IIDX soundtrack.

Song Production Information

dj TAKA

When I first heard this song, I really thought it was a new American artist.
I was fascinated by the super high quality sounds and harmonies mixed in with the sparse Japanese vocals, and I was immediately captivated.
I asked for more recordings than before, but due to the death of one of the members, Sachiko, I was persuaded by others to give up the idea of recording it.
However, the direction of IIDX 2ndstyle matched too well with this song, so I was able to selfishly force myself this time to include it.
I had a lot of doubts, but I'm really glad I was able to include it.
To everyone concerned, thank you for understanding, I really appreciate it.
Also, from the bottom of my heart, may Sachiko rest in peace.

Video Production Information

VJ GYO

On the way back from a location test for substream, dj TAKA and I went to a certain place in Tokyo, and there was a large version of this movie on a building near the station, and I have memories of us stopping and listening with the crowd.
We had talked about how nice it would be about including it in the subsequent IIDX, based on the sound and visuals, and... it really came true!
I've seen it several times, from re-editing it to game size, and even after it was in the game, but the more I especially saw the dances of the two dancers of double, the more fascinated I became.
This movie is elegant, and I'm sure your eyes will be drawn to the center of the screen that you might miss the notes at the edge of the screen.
