It’s Raining Men

"It's Raining Men" by The Weather Girls is featured on Just Dance 2, Just Dance 3 (as a DLC), and on Just Dance: Greatest Hits/Best Of.

Dancer


The dancer is wearing a green raincoat and is wearing polka dotted boots that are colored blue and dark pink. She also has lime green hair.

Just Dance 2
This routine takes place in front of a city with brightly lit buildings. It is raining heavily and puddles can be seen on the ground. Water spots appear as if you were looking through a camera. Everytime 'It's Raining Men!' is sung, thunder strucks in the background.

In the Just Dance Now remake, the rain is more visible and spots appear more frequently.

Just Dance 3/Greatest Hits
In the Xbox 360 versions of those games, the rain drops make a different effect when touching the ground, and blue flashes appear on the city whenever It's raining men! is sung. Additionally, a reddish outline appears around the coach when she performs moves that don't award any point.

Just Dance Now
In this game, the effect of the rain is changed again and there are some cheering sounds at the beginning. When the coach performs the Gold Move 4, a lightning hits her and makes her disappear suddenly. The red outline that appears during no-points moves is removed.

Gold Moves
There are 4 Gold Moves in the routine:

Gold Moves 1, 2 and 3: Raise both of your hands up, outstretched. (Akin to Fame)

Gold Move 4: Quickly "swash" your right hand such that it almost makes contact with your left hand. This is the final move of the routine.

 * Along with Dagomba, Futebol Crazy, and Alright, this song is one of the final DLC's to be released for Just Dance 3.
 * There are two errors in the lyrics: She took off the heaven appears as She took off heaven, and To rearrange the sky appears as To rearranged the sky.
 * From Just Dance 3 onwards, a pictogram has been mirrored to show the move better.
