Night of fire
Night of fire

*  Welcome to my rocky show
   Welcome to the fire of the night
   Come on baby let it go
   Come on baby let me stick you tight

※ Welcome to the broken low
   Welcome to the famous disco live
   Come on lady come and go
   Come on lady get me once and right

Not a danger, not a blacky stranger
Rock it - rock it - knock to my door I'll open
Speak my name now, speak it if you know how
Fly to me, get ready for the

Night of fire, you've better better say
You've better better begin the prayer to play
Night of fire, come over over me
Come over over the top you've never been here

Night of fire, you've better better say
You've better better begin the prayer to play
Night of fire, come over over me
Come over over the top you'll have a night of fire

You'll have a night of fire

Song Production Information

ucchie

A big classic ParaPara song that does not need an explanation, it is NIGHT OF FIRE! The delicious button sounds are also in the game, which felt crispy and quick.

The main phrase of the synth that appears in this kind of Euro intro is not something a human can play by hand in the first place. The ability to play on a 7-key keyboard is what makes IIDX interesting. If you are able to play on an actual keyboard, that is superhuman.
