Ooooooh, ooooo-ooooh (Go, go!) Oh-oh oh-oh woah, oh-oh-oooooh When you go on the floor and turn it loose Move those sexy legs and feel the boost Hard to know where ever my steps might end Let the party go on - In a way you're going fine by me Come on, try it like this Wait too long, you got nothing right there where you standing, Hell yeah, I'm the man What else you you expect from my beautiful command? I want to take you where (I want to take you where) (go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, c'mon!) We can party (we can party) From dusk 'til dawn (1998!) I know you feel (I know you feel) (go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, c'mon!) Like letting go (let it go)... The music make you high The music has the power (Music make you high) One, two - are you with me? Feel the beat and make your body sweat (Music make you higher) Like a sheer taste, start things again Go X - and Y, movin' free (Music take you higher) Party up, fellas like your dreams Stay, don't miss the pow'r again (Oh, music make you higher) Free that mind, Work your body 'til it's wet and soakin' We hot 'n smokin'! You got to bring your mind (bring it up, let it go, let it go!) And then (come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on!) Work that body Go on, get down (1998!) Oh, go with me (Oh go with me) (go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, c'mon!) And let go (you gotta let it go) The music make you high (and it make you high) The music has the power

Song Production Information
NAOKI MAEDA
In 1998, DDR was born...
A month and four years have passed since then.
Soon, I will have produced a bit more than 100 songs for KONAMI's BEMANI series.
I have continued to run without looking aside. I have evolved. The draw vision also continues to change.
But, now I remember. At that time, in that place, all that I felt.....
In a different perspective, D2R was a "return to the basics". This main keyword is "1998".
"1998"
Beyond the distant memory, I want to deliver the real current NAOKI sound.
Difficulty & Notecounts
DanceDanceRevolution difficulty rated from 1 to 10 from DDRMAX2 to SuperNOVA2, and 1 to 20 from X onwards. (Ratings and notecounts obtained from BEMANIWiki 2nd.)
