Lyrics
I'm a country girl, but you’re a super cityboy. I'm a natural girl, but you're prince for me. Everyday wondering how I become your girl. Everynight, I'm feeling your body in my dreams. I can't sleep at all, hello, Morning sun. My love, my crush, (I) wanna tell you my feeling. Please tell me now, how do you feel me? Please show me now. I wanna dance with you more. Right now, I want you're one for you. Everytime, everywhere, I will surely get your honest love. Daisuke...

Song Production Information
Y&Co.
At first, the title and the lyrics were totally different.
And somehow it became Daisuke (laughs)
♪ Daisuke~
I asked the vocalist to sing that part over and over in different patterns. I'm really sorry for giving so many requests that you didn't understand, like "Daisuke is so cool, let's sing about him!", or maybe "please go back to the feelings of your middle school youth", & Special thanks "KAHO"!
Video Production Information
DAISUKE
One day in December, GYO called me up and asked me, "This time we have a song called 'DAISUKE', so won't you come back and dance for us~?" So, I said "sure", and that's how I got to be able to do this.
By the way, my name is also "Daisuke", but if you write it in kanji it's 大○ (Dai----).
Anyways, this routine is a delicate mixture of ParaPara and jazz-styled dancing. The key pose is very important, so at the "Daisuke!" part make sure to not hit any keys and strike a pose, and you'll get a secret song! See you.
VJ GYO
If there's one thing I want to say about this movie,
"Thank you, Dai-chan!"
That's all.
Choreography Information
Dai.
Sorry to keep you waiting!
Oh, this was a different person's joke.
So, Daisuke appeared in DanEvo.
I've been asked since the game's release "is it still coming?", which I've avoided replying, but since we received so many requests, so it was finally included.
As with the previously included "Follow Tomorrow", it's a special version of the IIDX movie choreography with added original choreography for DanEvo.
It's quite an uptempo song, so please dance as cool as you can without being left behind!
