"Je sais pas danser" by Natoo was featured on Just Dance 2017 as a regional exclusive for France, Belgium, Switzerland, and some areas of Luxembourg. The song was only available on 8th-generation consoles and PC and required an internet connection.[2] The song is no longer available on Just Dance 2017 following the shutdown of the servers for Just Dance 2016-2018. The song remains playable on Just Dance Unlimited and is also available on Just Dance Now and 舞力无限.
Appearance of the Dancer[]
The dancer is a woman with purple hair in a bun. She has a purple bra and a pink and yellow cropped sweater top with purple zigzag lines on it. Her glittery pants are turquoise with purple and green stripes, and have a purple belt with a sky blue eye. She also has glittery shoes that change color, because they are overwhelmed by the colored floor. During the line Qu’ils m’ont crue/En crise d’epilepsie, the pants turn purple and the top turns peach orange and aqua, following the beat of the song. She also wears a lime green glove.
Background[]
The background appears to be a stage with a disco checkered floor and many screens. The singer herself, Natoo, surrounded by a paper outline, appears on all the screens along with words (such as "Twerk") and elements referencing the lyrics in a paper outline (for example, many fake teeth appear during the line "C’est pas d’ma faute"/"Si j’ai le style d’un retraité"). During the chorus, the background behind the screens shows many patterns in yellow, green, and purple. During the second verse, a female breakdancer appears and dances along with the coach. In the bridge, a boy wearing a disco ball head dances along with the coach until the end of the song. The last chorus features Natoo's dogs on the screens, and Natoo herself on the left side of the coach.
Gold Moves[]
There are 3 Gold Moves in this routine:
Gold Moves 1 and 2: Bring your hands down.
Gold Move 3: Slightly bend down and move both of your arms in a circle backwards.

Routine[]
- Je sais pas danser is the first routine in the main series where a person has been filmed without wearing white paint make-up.
- It is the second time if the people in the background of Gentleman are taken into account.
- Je sais pas danser is the fourth routine in the series to have a code name inspired from the artist’s name (after LimaGolf1, KiloPapaDLC and StarGate).
- However, this is the first one that directly mentions the artist.
- The preview gameplay for Je sais pas danser is the second to feature the end of the song, after Make It Shine.
- It is also the first one since Just Dance 2014 previews to feature four players instead of six and X’s among the randomised scoring.
- It is also the second one since Just Dance 2 previews to display the lyrics, after Make The Party (Don’t Stop).
- In the routine, Natoo is wearing the shirt from I Love It and a background dancer wears the disco ball head from the background dancers of Gentleman and Happy.
- The background dancers of I Gotta Feeling and the chihuahuas from Chiwawa can be seen on the screens.
- Additionally, the background recycles details from Sorry and Gangnam Style, along with some lasers from RADICAL.
- Je sais pas danser is free for France in Just Dance Unlimited.[4]
- The routine for Je sais pas danser was shot on July 28, 2016. Natoo went to Ubisoft Paris on that day where she shared videos of her visit via her Snapchat account, including behind the scenes.[5]
- Two different outfits were designed for the coach at first. Natoo was given the choice of which one to use in the final shooting.[6]
- During development, the song originally had a different square where the coach was in a different pose. This Beta icon could be seen on the phone screen when playing Just Dance 2017 with the Just Dance Controller.
- This was later fixed.
- When Je sais pas danser was first released in Just Dance Unlimited, it was a location-based song exclusive, meaning that if the player’s console was detected to be outside of France, Belgium, or Switzerland, the song would not appear in their menu. Attempting to use proxies would only result in failure, as the player would get disconnected from the online servers if the game detected that they were using a proxy.
- As of February 24, 2017, the routine is now available worldwide.
- When Je sais pas danser was released worldwide, there was a glitch where the song would not appear on the PS4 version.
- This was later fixed.
- The coach appears on a concept art for the background of the Classic version of Waka Waka (This Time for Africa).
