Just Dance 3 (Part 1)

The Holiday has come and gone,

Leaving behind good emotions and fun.

Christmas, twenty-fifth of December,

And New Year's Eve, a week later;

Both important, both celebrations,

Both times to live our traditions.

Unwrapping gifts, showing our love

And thanking our Lord up above.

...What? We're all of different origins.

B'sides, we all try to avoid the sins.

But one hits hard on Christmas, see:

This sin, my friend, is gluttony.

Yes indeed! You know what I mean

Holidays are time for fine cuisine.

...Who am I kidding? Of course not!

It's time to stuff our faces a lot!

For in families, we enjoy the meals

No matter what our stomach feels.

As a result, we end up sick

From eating pies and candy sticks.

Overeating in general

Increases the cholesterol.

What can we do in this case?

It's too slippy outside for a race

Walking the dog is dangerous,

That black ice is damn traitorous.

Just going out is too freezing.

You will come back inside sneezing.

In your house you must exercise

So you'll avoid illnesses and cries.

As for the game, I say it depends

Whether you have Wii Fit or Just Dance

As for me? Well... I have the latter.

Or rather, the third one, to be clearer.

Welcome to this review, everyone!

By now, I am sure that you want

Me to explain how this will work

Since rhyming is today my quirk.

Simple enough, I assure you;

This is how I'll write this review.

I'm gonna separate it in parts

Each a different musical art.

I'll post in the text a video

That indicates some seconds, and so

You can watch it entirely

Or skip to the part I decree.

I'll take the lyrics from this time

And do the review still in rhyme.

Each song will show an aspect of the game;

I'll keep the rhythm and beat the same.

This is a BIG challenge for me

And it won't be lame! (Hopefully!)

This intro was lengthy enough

So let's begin! (This'll be tough...)

(Dynamite – Taio Cruz; from 0:00 to 1:31)

I, I, I, I, I, I...

I want to dance, dance, dance dance

Must lose some weight

Can't fit my pants, pants, pants, pants

And all in all

I'm feeling tense, tense, tense tense

Must exercise

But I've got plans, plans, plans, plans

Gotta play on, and on, and on

Yes I'll play on, and on, and on

Yeah

Thanks to my Wii I'm moving all the time

That's for sure, oh

Gotta say, oh

Pop Just Dance in and I enjoy the rhyme

And I move, ohs

Here's how it goes

Wiimote in your right hand

Choreography is planned

Follow what they do

And you'll feel alright

Dancers on the screen

Repeat what you've seen

Do just like they do

And you'll feel alright

It's the full song, song, song, song

3-4 minutes

So it seems long, long, long, long

But you don't sing

Don't move your tongue, tongue, tongue, tongue

Do the movements

And dance along, long, long, long

Yeah, yeah

So just dance on, and on, and on

Keep dancing on, and on, and on

(Baby One More Time – Britney Spears; from 1:20 to 2:05)

Oh dancer dancer

You show me what I must do

I've got my sight on you

Oh you on the screen

Most of the time

You are a girl

But sometimes you're a guy

These games

Are targeting females

So much, in fact

That there's few dancer males

And that's sad

They look like the

Wii Fit Trainers

They are white-skinned

All these dancers

Only their right hands

Have some color

The one you'll follow

The right hand's movements, you know

(Promiscuous – Nelly Furtado ft. Timbaland from 1:21 to 2:28)

You get rated

On four different levels

X, OK and Good

And Perfect, and that's all

Hey!

Perfect gives ya a better

And bigger score

Than will do the others

And then special moves

The screen flashes an instant

If you get that one right

It's a Perfect

None other for that movement

When you get a score

The bar fills up

You know what I mean

The one at the top

When filled enough

A star is gonna appear

And if you collect five

Then you sure can cheer

It means you have talent

And you've mastered this tune

Five stars is the max

You're done being a buffoon

If you play against

Another person

It's the highest score

Who's gonna be the champion

When you reach the end

Your stars are calculated

And you unlock stuff

But it's complicated

Unlocking more things

It's not that simple

You need talent

Of course but that's not all

Unlocking more things

More songs and mashups

Of previous dances

So do the right steps

Unlocking more things

Takes always more

Nearly thousand stars

Show what you've got in store

Unlocking more things

Try getting it all

You ready?

(Beautiful Liar – Beyoncé ft. Shakira; from 0:19 to 1:11)

Is it

Worth it

There's so many songs

Its so unbelievable, there's at least forty titles

Really

That many

Most from the start

And a few unlockables, it's not many, no big trouble

You can, also

Do a playlist, a selection

Even though

There's five to eight songs for each one

There's “pop”, “rock” and “R'n'B”

“Electro” and “costume party”

“Around the world” and “80s”

That's just some of the playlists

There's a playlist for “Duos”

And “Dance Crews”, none for “Solos”

There's one for Hard songs and Intense

That's just some of the playlists

(Video Killed The Radio Star – The Buggles; from 0:26 to 1:14)

From the menu you can access the mode “Just Sweat”

It will measure your exercise, as you can bet

Something you can incorporate in your diet

Oh-a, oh-a

In this mode you will get Sweat Points each time you play

It encourages you to come back every day

You get rewards each time you do this anyway

Oh-a, oh-a

So play when you can

Oh-a, oh-a

This is quite the plan

Getting Sweat Points over seven days

Setting all of the game's tunes ablaze

That's a mode I can only praise

Oh-a-a-a, oh...

(Lollipop – Mika; from 0:44 to 1:44)

Here I am at the next menu

Which one to pick? What an issue

Seven-day challenge, free session?

Time to get in on the action

The seven-day challenge is great

You must play for a whole week straight

Take a Healthy Choice, a Fresh Start

But Sweat Explosion is the hard part

Play this game for a little while and

Collect tons of Sweat Points

Play this game for a little while and

Collect tons of Sweat Points

Play now, play now,

This game is your healthy choice

Play now, play now,

This game is your healthy choice

For each pick, you must get thousands

How much for each, well it depends

For the Fresh Start, it's just three

For the hard one, over twenty (thousands!)

The game counts how much you're moving

More means that you're better doing

At the end, added the points are

To those you've gotten thus far

(Night Boat To Cairo – Madness; from 1:00 to 1:40)

You're doing well

You're feeling swell

Doing what the characters do

You've seen their move

You've followed their groove

The models are pretty, that's true

They're quite detailed

The CGI don't fail

And their movements are very clear too

I can't be a jerk

Ubisoft did good work

On their modeling of the dance crews

If you were to count

It is a big amount

There's over a hundred dancers in all

And they fit the themes

Of their songs, it seems

Such a pile of work is not banal

Such pile of work is not banal

(Spectronizer – Sentai Super Express; from 0:15 to 1:08)

You are picking

A song that you wanna dance to

Then you realize

That the dancers are two

That means

You're gonna have to pick one of them

That is “duos” for you

You are picking

A song you've never heard before

Then you see

That the dancers are four

That means

You're gonna have to pick one of them

That is “Dance Crews” for you

Invite your friends

And have a real awesome time

Dancing in teams, to the rhythm

Come on! Play together!

Play together!

Helping each other

Play together!

But it gets better

Play together!

All your stars will count

To unlock more

It's gonna be much quicker

(I Don't Feel Like Dancing – Scissor Sisters; from 1:58 to 3:07)

You are busy mimicking

What the dancer is doing

But look at the backgrounds

They are all truly amazing

There's a million things you're missing

Happening in the behind

Somebody watching you can look at them

If they're so inclined

Why did Ubisoft

Choose to do that is beyond me

There's just so many details you'll never see

I gotta wonder

Why they had that idea

Thus looking at those Youtube vids is the key

Because I feel like spotting

All those jokes scattered in the back

Missing them is so lame

I guess the concept is to blame

Because I do not want to miss

A single thing that is hidden

Because I feel like spotting

Those things are not forbidden

I feel like spotting, spotting

All the animation in the background

I feel like spotting, spotting

The jokes until they are all found

I feel like spotting, spotting

Even though dancing is still the primary goal, oo-oo-oo

(Take On Me – A-Ha; from 1:12 to 2:33)

Such variety

Everything from

Pop to country

All kinds of music

Just so many styles

You can play

Something you like

You will find inside this game, I say

Believe me (Believe me)

Believe on (Believe me)

You'll have fun

Problems are few

That's all for today

I haven't told

All I could

So, wait for Monday

I promise you

That this will be good

You'll have to wait

This review is getting lengthy anyway

Believe me (Believe me)

I'm not done (Believe me)

Wait for next part

Of this review
