Lyrics

Original

Shake it, shake it, shake it, shake it (Move, dance, get up on your feet)
Let me see you groove tonight (Raise your arms up high and you'll see)
Shake it, shake it, shake it, shake it (I need to stroke and stroke to get around)
Let me see you groove tonight (And stick together to get down)
Shake it, shake it, shake it, shake it (My heart feels light though I know I'm wrong)
Let me see you groove tonight (Grooving to the music all night long)
Shake it, shake it, shake it, shake it (Give it to me good or give it to me raw)
Let me see you groove tonight (Shake it baby shake it till the break of dawn)

始まる　広がる　この夜　さまよう
かたまる(かたまる)　時間の中で
忘れる約束　たたずむ感覚
乱れる　ビートと一緒に

流れてる　このgrooving sound
いつだって　it's D-O-U-B-L-E

終わらない　このgrooving sound
とまらない　このSUPER SISTERS!!
D-O-U-B-L-E

Shake it, shake it, shake it, shake it
Let me see you groove tonight
Shake it, shake it, shake it, shake it
Let me see you groove tonight
Shake it, shake it, shake it, shake it
Let me see you groove tonight
Shake it, shake it, shake it, shake it
Let me see you groove tonight

朝まで　Everybody　はだかで　Move your body
からだで　かんじて
とまどう足元　続ける　Step & Step
とけあう　リズムに魅かれて

流れてる　このgrooving sound...

Song Connections / Remixes

• A slightly different version of Shake is used in the beatmania IIDX series, with the first half of its first verse playing during the first chorus.

Trivia

• Shake has never been in a CS beatmania IIDX release.
• According to dj TAKA, he almost didn't put Shake in beatmania IIDX 2nd style due to the death of double member Sachiko, who died back in May 1999 from a subarachnoid hemorrhage, four months before beatmania IIDX 2nd style came out.
• Shake cannot be be found on any beatmania IIDX soundtrack.

Song Production Information

dj TAKA

When I first heard this song, I really thought it was a new American artist.
I was fascinated by the super high quality sounds and harmonies mixed in with the sparse Japanese vocals, and I was immediately captivated.
I asked for more recordings than before, but due to the death of one of the members, Sachiko, I was persuaded by others to give up the idea of recording it.
However, the direction of IIDX 2ndstyle matched too well with this song, so I was able to selfishly force myself this time to include it.
I had a lot of doubts, but I'm really glad I was able to include it.
To everyone concerned, thank you for understanding, I really appreciate it.
Also, from the bottom of my heart, may Sachiko rest in peace.

Video Production Information

VJ GYO

On the way back from a location test for substream, dj TAKA and I went to a certain place in Tokyo, and there was a large version of this movie on a building near the station, and I have memories of us stopping and listening with the crowd.
We had talked about how nice it would be about including it in the subsequent IIDX, based on the sound and visuals, and... it really came true!
I've seen it several times, from re-editing it to game size, and even after it was in the game, but the more I especially saw the dances of the two dancers of double, the more fascinated I became.
This movie is elegant, and I'm sure your eyes will be drawn to the center of the screen that you might miss the notes at the edge of the screen.
