"Forget You" by Cee Lo Green is featured on Just Dance 3 and Just Dance Now (for players who subscribed before April 9, 2024). It was also featured on Just Dance Unlimited and 舞力无限, but was removed on August 1 and 2, 2024, respectively. It was also planned to be featured on Just Dance Wii 2, but was scrapped.[4][5]
Appearance of the Dancer[]
Original[]
The dancer is a man with dark brown neatly combed hair. He wears a burgundy suit with black edges and trims, light orange long sleeved undershirt with a small cyan bow tie, a cyan handkerchief in his breast pocket of his coat, black slacks, orange socks, and burgundy dress shoes. When "Now baby, baby..." is sung, the dancer turns to a figure made of static, where he stays like this until "Baby why’d you..." is sung. He has a tan colored outline. He also wears a turquoise glove.
Just Dance 3 (Wii/PS3)[]
On the Wii and PS3 version of Just Dance 3, the dancer’s color scheme is less brighter than his appearance on the Xbox 360.
Just Dance 3 (Xbox 360)[]
On the Xbox 360 version of Just Dance 3, the dancer’s color scheme is more definitive and brighter in terms of contrast.
Remake[]
In the remake, he looks slightly more realistic. His hair and slacks are now black. Most of his outfit colors remain the exact same from Just Dance 3 but has a more realistic color palette. He is also presented with a thin blue outline.
Background[]
Just Dance 3 (Wii/PS3)[]
The routine takes place in an old TV set. The coach dances on a small stage with a brown reflective floor, two rows consisting of four yellow spotlights each and an ochre yellow pedestal. What seems to be an Indian head test pattern can be seen on a beige wall. Except for the frequency bars, all the elements in the head test pattern are motionless. The scenery is surrounded by the TV frame, which consists of a light brown one, a dark brown one surrounded by a silver outline and a final grey one.
The routine starts with a loud buzzing effect accompanied by a male voice and a static screen, which fade away quickly and are followed by the coach, who appears with a white blink effect and static lines that fade away as soon as the song starts. The screen keeps a sepia tone for the entirety of the first chorus. When the coach moves his elbow towards his body, the spotlights light up one by one, starting from the first one on the right; then, they light up in pairs, raise and go down again. After that, the sepia tone fades away, the scenery retains its original colors and the wheels on the head test pattern start rotating.
During the verses, one opposite row of spotlight lights up when the coach walks from one side to another (for example, when he walks to the left, the right one lights up), and then all of them light up together when he claps his hands. When he points his fingers up, each one lights up consecutively, in the same order that was used in the first chorus (even though they light up together twice before raising in this case). When the coach raises his arms, the spotlights raise together and light up again in the same order as before.
In the second and third choruses, the wheels on the head test pattern freeze again. When the coach moves his arm away from his body while raising his leg, two spotlights at a time light up. When he closes his arms in a circle, the right row lights up in a wave before the left one, and then they turn back off. When the coach does his "shhh" pose, the spotlights raise, and then they go back down. With the exception of the aforementioned instances, the animations for the spotlights remains the same as the ones seen in the first chorus.
Before the bridge starts, the coach gets a blurry effect followed by a white blink that makes him turn entirely static, with the exception of his glove and his bow tie. After a few seconds, however, his color return. The wheels on the head pattern rotate again, and the spotlights light up in turn starting from the first one on the right while the coach walks towards the left, and then, after turning back off for a brief period of time, they raise when he kneels down. When the coach points his finger to a side, they light up in pairs, and then they light up singularly starting from the farthest ones in each row while he shakes his elbows. When the coach does the latter move faster, the order is inverted.
Along with the coach’s white blink, two rows of three female background dancers appear on the pedestal with the same blink effect and move along to the beat. The left ones have straight shoulder-cut hair, whereas the right ones have curly hair in an afro. At first, they have the same static effect as the coach, but then they turn into bordeaux red silhouettes whose color turns darker towards the bottom. They also share the coach’s orange outline. When the coach kneels down, they bend over and put their hands near their mouth, as if they were shouting. When the coach points his finger to one side, the respective dancers raise their arm (for example, the left ones do so when he points to the left), and they lower their arm in semicircle when the coach shakes his elbows. When the coach does the latter move faster, the background dancers shake their shoulders and feet.
During the final chorus, the wheels keep spinning and the background dancers gradually fade away. As soon as the coach spins, the scenery turns back to sepia; after that, the coach gets his static effect again and fades away abruptly with a white blink, and the TV screen goes back to static.
Just Dance 3 (Xbox 360)[]
In the Xbox 360 version of Just Dance 3, the TV frame is wider and with thinner, the stage has more saturated colors, the pedestal has another smaller pedestal on top, the wheels are positioned differently, the frequency bars are absent, and there is a brown oval fade on the corners of the wall. Besides, the spotlights are bigger and brighter, and they cannot be seen when they are not turned on.
In the intro, the sound effects at the beginning are less loud, the entire scenery is in black and white rather than in a sepia tone, and the blink effect that precedes the coach’s appearance also looks slightly different. In this part, the spotlights have the same effects as the ones in the Wii and PS3 version.
In the verses, the spotlights only turn off when the coach claps his hands the second and fourth time. When the points his finger to the sky, each row lights up alternatively. When he shakes his hands, two spotlights intermittently light up in each row.
In the chorus, two spotlights light up in each row when the coach moves his arms away from this body, and then they turn back off once the entire row is lit. When the coach closes his arms in a semicircle, the rows turn off more quickly, and they only turn off when the coach does his "shhh" pose. They also raise before the ones on Wii and PS3 do.
In the bridge, the background dancers are positioned in front of the pedestal and not on it, and the animation that introduces them is slightly slower. The spotlights turn on gradually and remain lit without moving, until they fade away again. When the coach points his finger to the background dancers, two alternate spotlights of each row light up consecutively (i.e. the second and fourth ones, and then the first and third ones); then they turn off and then back on in a wave.
In the final chorus, the screen turns black and white before the coach spins, and it does not go to static.
Remake[]
In the remake, the background looks more realistic, with a static screen appearing early, the static screens are more realistic, and when With a.. is sung, the background changes to the colored version and a retro TV turn off after the song. The backup singers are also given a slight HD-remake.

Trivia[]
General[]
- The clean version of the track is used in the game, where the original title of "F*ck You" was replaced with "Forget You". This marks the first time that a song has replaced its original title with its clean version.
- Additionally, "sh*t", "ass", and "n****" are censored, and the backup lines "(Oh sh*t she’s a gold digger)" and "(Just thought you should know n****)" do not appear in the lyrics.
- In the thumbnail for the preview gameplay, the artist is simply credited as "Cee Lo".
- In the remake, the highlighting in the line "Ha now ain’t that some shhhh?" is off-sync the first time it is sung.
- Some empty files for a Mashup and Party Master Mode routine for this song can be found in the Just Dance Unlimited files.[6]
- In Ubisoft’s press release announcing the removal of specific songs from Just Dance Now and Just Dance Unlimited, Cee Lo Green’s name is misspelled as Ceelo Green.[7]
Routine[]
- Forget You is the second routine to have borders in its background.
- The routine uses two different takes of the choreography. This is most noticeable during the start of the bridge.
- However, the remake starts the second take during the second part of the bridge.
- At the beginning of the choreography, when the TV is in the monochrome shade, the scoring icons and pictograms are in that shade too. The scoring icons in Simon Says Mode are also monochromatic.
- However, this is only the case for the Wii and PS3. On the Xbox 360, the scoring icons keep their colors.
- Sometimes, on the Wii version of Just Dance 3, Gold Move 2 will not be seen or counted for.[citation needed]
- This glitch also happens in Simon Says Mode.
- In the Xbox 360 version of Just Dance 3, the background dancers that appear in the bridge are not aligned with the pedestal, which is placed farther away from the screen compared with the Wii and PS3 version.
- This happens because the background dancers are rendered together with the coach himself in the game files.
- At the end of the routine in Just Dance 3, the dancer immediately fades away after pointing at the screen. However, this is not the case in the Mashup for Ain’t No Mountain High Enough on Just Dance 2015, as he can be seen pointing at the screen for five seconds and then walking away.
- The Wii/PS3 extraction of the song was found in the files of Just Dance Wii 2.
- When the files of Forget You were first uploaded to the old Just Dance Now servers, the original pictograms were used and the lyrics were red (which is the placeholder color for lyrics); however, upon the final release of the map, the pictograms and the lyrics color were retained from Just Dance Unlimited.
- The in-game preview still uses the old pictograms, albeit with the pictogram bar and Gold Move effect from Just Dance 2018.
- The menu icons for Dançando and Forget You can be seen in the lower part of a promotional screenshot in the October 22, 2015 version of justdancenow.com in spite of these two routines not being available yet.
- Although the remake uses newly-created pictograms, the original ones can still be found in the Just Dance Unlimited servers.[8]
- On Twitter, the official Just Dance account ran a poll asking which song should be the last from Season 2 on Just Dance Unlimited, and the options were Forget You and Louie Louie. Since Forget You won, it was announced that it was going to be added to the service on May 28, 2020.[9]
- The album coach in Just Dance Unlimited uses the white fade effect from Just Dance 2014 and 2015.
- A different album coach was used in the artbook, The Art of Just Dance (10th Anniversary Edition), which uses the full body of the coach and does not include the white fade.
- In the Xbox 360 version of Just Dance 3, the coach is flipped on the coach selection screen.
