Lyrics

Alright come with me & let's get this party started babe
Let's turn it around
It's got a beat that will keep you coming to the dance floor
Time for you to get down

I've got a feeling that you have been waiting ... to get up
Cause once the music controls your body whole
See you may never ever want to stop

Get on up, on the floor, shake your body now
All alone, on the floor, your show
Close your eyes, catch a vibe, twist your body down,
Don't be shy, it's your night, let go

See you've got to,
Do your dance, shake your pants, rock your body now
Eyes on you, as you do, your do
Let the beat, move your feet, break your body down
Out all night, it's alright to do, whatever cause it's really up to you

Song Production Information

good-cool

Everyone, good morneveningello! This time again, I'm good-cool, who returned as a house tracker to write this song.
This song is filled with my own house style obsession. Even if you asked about what obsession, I can't tell you exactly, but anyways, there's an obsession (laughs).
However, it's been a long time since TAKA last told me to "create a house song", so I was a bit nervous.
Even if you asked me why, I can't tell you exactly, but anyways, I was nervous (laughs). The vocalist is Andrea, who performed "Come With Me" with her mellow vocals.
Her singing voice and personality are super cute, and I personally love it. I carelessly fell in love with her husky voice over the phone.
And this time, she also appeared in the movie herself. By all means, please try to check out her passionate singing on the monitor.
Speaking about the movie, Dai, who I always ask for his choreography, is performing an elegant dance as the main role, but no~, he always does this~.
As you may already know, Dai is the ParaPara choreographer in the "Last Message" video. Well, please teach me how to dance next time~♪ Thank you very much, Dai!

Video Production Information

Dai

I discussed this movie with good-cool, and tried to show off an "-ish" feeling in it.
When I say "-ish", I mean like "that-ish". This song is also like "over there-ish", so by all means, please enjoy the "-ish" feeling.

VJ GYO

"Last Message" was included in 7th style.
The vocalist Meg learned the ParaPara choreography using an instructional video.
In that video, Dai showed off a sharp and cool dance! I was hypnotized!
I previously sent energetic calls to him saying "by all means, please appear as a dancer in the movie!", and it finally happened this time!

I met Dai for the first time during the filming day, but good-cool, who was also very experienced in video production as a commercial director, stayed with me as a supervisor from beginning to end this time, and Mikoshiba, who ran over to be a filming assistant to learn the know-how of live-action filming, provided a perfect match for the four of us, which was very fun and hot! It became an unforgettable day.

Andrea's filming was weeks later at a studio in Hiroo, in between vocal recording and trackdown.
The filming itself finished smoothly, thanks to good-cool's suitable follow-up.
Actually, the studio work that I first saw gave me a deep impression.
-Andrea repeatedly sang until she was satisfied.
-good-cool never gave up until he found the ideal sound.
-The engineers, who quietly adjusted the sound to what good-cool envisioned.
-TAKA gave exact and sharp directions at key points.
For one sound that may not be heard through speakers, how much thought and passion is put into it...
Of course, I thought I understood it, but it was from this day that I could really experience its meaning.
