Mega volume MUSIC in my head
HEAVY ROTATION
Like POPCORN popping
The letter of "love" is dancing
Just thinking of your face and voice
I can't help but do something
I can be this kind of feeling
I'm lucky.
I WANT YOU!
I NEED YOU!
I LOVE YOU!
I met you and get close enough to you

Song Connections / Remixes
DanceDanceRevolution and HELLO! POP'N MUSIC use a cover version of ヘビーローテーション, while jubeat, REFLEC BEAT and DanceEvolution ARCADE use the original version of the song.
From DanceDanceRevolution (2013) onwards, the DanceDanceRevolution series uses a shorter version of the ヘビーローテーション cover, cutting out the number count sequence from the intro.
jubeat (2021) also uses this cut of the cover version.
Another cover of ヘビーローテーション appears in ANDAMIRO's PUMP IT UP PRIME JP EDITION.
Trivia
This song has different backgrounds, banners, jackets, or other related images. For more information, please see this page.
ヘビーローテーション later appeared in AKB48's 2010 album, ここにいたこと.
In DanceEvolution ARCADE, ヘビーローテーション had a beginner-friendly choreography, with only Light difficulty, and marked as a separate song with a かんたん振り付け note and with a shoshinsha mark as a difficulty level.
ヘビーローテーション's jacket in HELLO! POP'N MUSIC features RIE♥chan and SANAE♥chan.
ヘビーローテーション received new charts in DanceDanceRevolution (2013), to match its new song cut.
Due to the new cut, ヘビーローテーション is included twice in the DanceDanceRevolution master song list.
This was my first experience with motion capture, and it was interesting to see the character in the game move as my alter ego.
I'd be happy if the number of games featuring dancing will increase in the future, and that people from a wide range of generations can enjoy them.
