Lyrics
Dance Let's dance Baby, I've seen you from across the cloudy room girl (across the cloudy room) You should've been dancing Out on the dance-dance-dance floor The way that you glide From left to right so graceful with style girl All night I watch you dancing, all by yourself. That's why you should be out on the dance floor Disco dancing baby Just you and me across the floor Disco dancing baby All night 'til we can't dance no more You should be dancing.

Song Production Information
This song was actually finished during completeMIX 2 before 321 STARS.
(Hidden lore?) Even though the creator himself loved it, after much protest it wasn't able to be put in the game.
We asked black gospel singer Glynis Martin to do the vocals, and he also helped out with the lyrics. On the day of the recording, we also had him do some ad libbing and a chorus.
Thanks to him, the song turned out to be beautiful but powerful. We'd like to take this chance to thank Mr. Martin.
Video Production Information
Since the song is your standard easygoing disco number, the artwork is also a bit stereotypical, put together with the feeling of a Saturday night disco fever to evoke nostalgia.
Apparently DJ SIMON liked the mirror ball on the miss screen... I still need more practice though.
