"Ievan Polkka" by Hatsune Miku is featured on Just Dance 2016 and Just Dance Now.
Contents
Appearance of the Dancer
The dancer is a hologram of Hatsune Miku wearing a hot pink glove on her right hand, in which she is holding a green leek. She has long bright aquamarine hair tied up in ponytails, a silver and black dress with a teal tie, black arm warmers, and black boots. Her body is static and blurry and is generally translucent.
Background
The routine takes place in front of a panel of digital screens. Vegetables such as leeks, turnips, and carrots appear in colored backgrounds on the screens, as does a scenic view of purple mountain caverns. When the stop-motion effect is used on the dancer, multiple pictures of her appear on the screen covering the mountain caverns.
There are also two hologram projectors beside the dancer, which occasionally project bluish holograms of the dancer.
Mashup
Ievan Polkka has a Duet Mashup with the theme B.F.F. which can be unlocked for 1000 Mojo Coins (or 20 Mojo Coins for all old-gen consoles). It consists of coaches who share similar characteristics to one another or portray a strong bond between one another.

Trivia
General
- Ievan Polkka is the second song in the franchise by Hatsune Miku.
- It is also the first song by Hatsune Miku to be featured in the main series, which makes her the first artist from the Japanese series to come to the main series.
- Ievan Polkka is the second song by a Japanese artist to only appear in the main series, following Spectronizer. However, Ievan Polkka is not a Japanese song - rather, it is Finnish in origin.
- This makes Ievan Polkka the first song with a Finnish title and to have Finnish roots.
- Ievan Polkka is also the eighth cover to be made by a singer who does not work for Ubisoft; it follows Toxic, Holiday, Here Comes the Hotstepper, Jump (For My Love), Can’t Take My Eyes Off You, One Way Or Another (Teenage Kicks), and Never Can Say Goodbye.
- Ievan Polkka is the only song in Just Dance 2016 to have a Duet Mashup.
- In-game, Ievan Polkka is credited to Hatsune Miku, rather than Otomania, the song’s producer.
- However, Otomania is credited in the credits section of this song.
Classic
- Ievan Polkka is the first routine that is not an Alternate routine to include an object in the coach’s hand (in this case, a green leek).
- Ievan Polkka ties with Tell Your World for longest hair in the entire franchise of Just Dance.
- A stop motion effect is used on the dancer at one point.
- In Just Dance Now, the song is at the beginning of the playlist "All Songs K-R", despite the song’s name starting with an I.
- This was due to its codename.
- This was later fixed on May 21, 2019.
- In an Instagram video showing the E3 demo of Just Dance 2016, it is seen that Ievan Polkka is the only song to not be sorted in the menu in alphabetical order as with all the other E3 2015 reveals.[2]
- Ievan Polkka is the sixth routine to have a coach based on an official character, (i.e. Hatsune Miku), after Just Mario, Prince Ali, Ghostbusters, Let It Go, and India Waale.
- The routine borrows some moves from the choreography in the Project DIVA music video.
- Ievan Polkka’s codename is misspelled ("LevanPolkka").
- This routine has two different captions in Just Dance 2016 for the same move: "Leek Power" and "One Leek Please".[3]
- The leek can be glitchy at a few points of the routine, as parts of it sometimes disappear.
- Ievan Polkka and Same Old Love are currently the only two routines from Just Dance 2016 to not be available on Just Dance Unlimited.
- However, Ievan Polkka is available on Just Dance Now, while Same Old Love cannot be found in either games.
- "Yo!" is not usually written in the lyrics of the song, but is written in-game.
- The British gameplay teaser was removed after gaining 1 million views for unknown reasons; however, it is still available on the French channel.
Mashup
- On the PS4 version, Blurred Lines’ Gold Move 1 is removed every time it is done.
- The Gold Move effect glitches out when P2’s Gold Move from C’mon occurs.
