Lyrics
Only the lines marked with an asterisk (*) are present on the short version of HOT LIMIT.
YO SAY. Summer love... Wishing revealing... * YO SAY. Summer love... Wishing revealing... Precious love is always eating up my heart Uncheatable her shapely line A convict of her lithe crime Save me and wrap around one more time Make a change and turn around under a wave Back on ground holding scolding the darker side The summer is burning a hole in my heart Stripping me down to hot temptation It's OK to give in be beaten by lust, summer wind, Burning air a scandal affair YO SAY. Summer love will stimulate my heart tonight Mysterious mermaid barefoot all alone Wishing revealing it's the fruit I want to eat Precious love is always eating up my heart Fairies, summer folk will stimulate my fantasies Mysterious mermaid barefoot all alone Wishing revealing it's the fruit I want to eat Precious love is always eating up my heart Fagged out that's you and me, gave you the better side of me This town is gloomy nothing to be found Don't wanna stop or cool down, go forever not hang around Don't wanna hear a boring joke in my open mind The sky is burning a firework delight Painting colour through the night Holding me tightly I grab the light, summer wind, Burning fire, getting me high YO SAY. Summer love will stimulate my heart tonight Mysterious mermaid barefoot all alone Wishing revealing it's the fruit I want to eat Precious love is always eating up my heart Fairies, summer folk will stimulate my fantasies Mysterious mermaid barefoot all alone Wishing revealing it's the fruit I want to eat Precious love is always eating up my heart * YO SAY. Summer love... Wishing revealing... Precious love is always eating up my heart

Song Production Information
DanceDanceRevolution 5thMIX
This is a cover number of the 1998 hit song "HOT LIMIT", where the vocalist's unique moves became a hot topic. JOHN DESIRE, who sings this song, is also known for his Euro cover of "Kamen Butokai". He's also active as a vocalist for the heavy metal band CHEMICAL BAND, so his singing vigor and power is truly refreshing. It'd be fun to incorporate the original's dance moves in your performance.

DanceDanceRevolution 5thMIX CS
A cover of this big hit song by T.M.Revolution was included here as a LONG VERSION.
This LONG VERSION, which first appeared in 5thMIX, is nearly twice as long as the regular songs in the game. It's quite difficult, so let's use your stamina to challenge this song!!!
※The LONG VERSION will only appear when there are two stages remaining or when EVENT MODE is activated!
Dance Maniax
"HOT LIMIT" was a big hit number released in 1998 by a popular male vocalist. JOHN DESIRE, who has performed covers of well known songs as standard summer songs, was frequently discussed for his Euro cover of "Kamen Butokai". His energetic vocals, also heard in the Italian heavy metal band CHEMICAL BAND, are a perfect match for hot tunes. With a hot number like the midsummer's sun, let's dance without worrying about sweating!

From my intuition sir, what's the purpose of creating this? There isn't any, right?
When geniuses act like this, it's a disaster, right?
A natural disaster, just kidding. (I know, I know. It's nice to play with your emotions as much as I like.)
