Lyrics obtained from Anime Lyrics.com: [http://www.animelyrics.com/game/ddrev3/ddr3oper.htm]
When darkness falls
and I'm all alone


<pre>
I need you to call me
Operator, operator,
on the telephone
Please hook me up to my lover at the end of the line
Operator, operator,
Please hook me up to my lover, gotta know that he's mine


Operator, operator,
When night time comes
Please hook me up to my lover at the end of the line
and I don't have a choice
Operator, operator,
Please hook me up to my lover, gotta know that he's mine


When darkness falls and I'm all alone
Once again I need
I need you to call me on the telephone
to hear your sweet little voice
When night time comes and I don't have a choice
Once again I need to hear your sweet voice  


I heard a song on the radio
I heard a song
I'll call you up to sing it for you
on the radio
So if you turn on the radio  
You will feel the magic too


Operator, operator,
I'll call you up
Please hook me up to my lover at the end of the line
to sing it for you
Operator, operator,
Please hook me up to my lover, gotta know that he's mine
Please hook me up to my lover (lover, lover)
Please hook me up to my lover (lover, lover)</pre>

Operator, operator,

Please hook me up to my lover</pre>
 
== Song Connections / Remixes ==
* The beatmania series uses ''Operator (Original Radio Mix)'' from PAPAYA's ''Operator'' single, rather than the album version of the song.
* An 8-bit arrangement of OPERATOR appears in [[CS DDR GB2|DanceDanceRevolution GB2]].

{{Gallery}}
* In DanceDanceRevolution 3rdMIX, OPERATOR was titled '''OPERATOR (Two Gees Mix)''', despite that the original version of OPERATOR is used in BEMANI. This was corrected on the ''DanceDanceRevolution 3rdMIX Original Soundtrack'' album and later in [[AC DDR 3rd VER.KOREA|DanceDanceRevolution 3rdMIX VER.KOREA]].
** However, this mistake was kept in DanceDanceRevolution GB2 and in the [[CS DDR 5th|DanceDanceRevolution 5thMIX CS]] DATA BANK.
* From DanceDanceRevolution 3rdMIX to [[AC DDR 4th PLUS|4thMIX PLUS]], OPERATOR was labeled under the ''Dancemania X3'' album.
* OPERATOR received new Double NORMAL and HARD charts in beatmania III (although both charts are identical).
* OPERATOR (hard version)'s charts would later be transferred to OPERATOR as its ANOTHER charts in [[AC bm complete 2|beatmania completeMIX 2]].
* OPERATOR is absent from hiphopmania completeMIX 2, the North American release of beatmania completeMIX 2.
* OPERATOR received a new Single MANIAC chart in DanceDanceRevolution 4thMIX PLUS.
* In DanceDanceRevolution GB2, OPERATOR (Two Gees Mix) runs at 137 BPM.
* OPERATOR also appears in Andamiro/Fun In Motion's ''PUMP IT UP PRO2'' and Step Revolution's ''StepManiaX''.


* This is actually the original mix of OPERATOR. Two Gees Mix is a different version. The name got fixed in [[AC DDR 4th|DDR 4thMIX]].
== Song Production Information ==
* The full version appears in PAPAYA's debut album, "Pink".
PAPAYA (real name Linnea Handberg) was born in 1976 to a Swedish father and a Russian-Danish mother.<br>
* OPERATOR (Two Gees Mix) received new MANIAC charts in [[AC DDR 4th PLUS|DDR 4thMIX PLUS]].
She composed songs herself for Denmark's Scandinavian Records in 1997, debuting with the song Hero.<br>
A hit in Europe, it was even released in 1998 under Madonna's label Maverick Records.<br>
PAPAYA unveiled her debut album Pink in February 1999, with this song being the latest single from that album. (From Dancemania X3)


== Music Production Notes ==
== Video Production Information ==
None.
I just went with the easy option of phones. Sorry.<br>
Thinking of the cute vocals and song lyrics being aimed towards girls, I made the backgrounds poppy colors.<br>
Even beatmania can be cute once in a while.


== Difficulty & Notecounts ==
beatmania difficulty rated from 1 to 9.<br>
DanceDanceRevolution difficulty from 2ndMIX CLUB VER. through 5thMIX (and the Solo games) rated from 1 to 9. (Ratings and notecounts obtained from [http://kani.no.coocan.jp/bm/bm.htm KANI KANI CRAB].)
