"Narco" by Blasterjaxx and Timmy Trumpet is featured on Just Dance 2019, Just Dance Now, (for players who subscribed before April 9, 2024) and Just Dance+. The song was also featured on Just Dance Unlimited and 舞力无限, but was removed.
On the eighth-generation console and Nintendo Switch versions of Just Dance 2019, Narco is one of fourteen tracks to be available at the beginning.
Appearance of the Dancer[]

The dancer is a male knight. He wears a blue and magenta vest with a motif of a unicorn in the middle, light green pants, magenta, a deep red glove, orange boots, and a light orange chain mail knight helmet, similar to those worn by knights during the Medieval times. He has a black and white outline.
Background[]
In the beginning of the song, the background is light orange with flashing darker orange patterns. A shield bearing the Latin motto "Salto ergo sum" zooms into the center. The shield also features a unicorn head on a checkerboard back, and is bordered with red dragons. Then, knights on unicorns carrying shields with the blackletter "n" fly in from the sides of the screen, leaving a rainbow trail behind them.
During the verses, trumpets with red flags and gold fleur-de-lis flank a cathedral-like hallway that slowly zooms in towards the rose window. Rainbows cross the hallway; in the second verse, winged pandas fly in and leave rainbow trails. During the bridge of the song, the window sections flash in various colors with the beat, in front of a black background. At the bass drop, when the dancer slams his hands backwards, the window breaks and zooms in.
The background in the chorus is a deep wine color with faint rose patterns. A heart with a pair of crossed roses is in the center. Trumpets with red and blue flags, designed with fleur-de-lis, line both sides of the screen. Rainbows spill out and roses sprout from the trumpets, while pandas on trumpets fly in from both left and right. The background then reverts to a blue-purple recolor of the background theme in the beginning of the routine, although this time the shield features crossed roses.
In the instrumental break, a cyan strip with a winged bear is flanked with the unicorn-head shields from the beginning theme, now attached to torches.
Gold Moves[]
There are 2 Gold Moves in this routine:
Gold Move 1 (Just Dance+): Raise your arms above your head, then swing them to your right hip and your left leg behind your right.
Gold Move 1 (Pre-Just Dance+): Lean back with your left hand on the ground and stretch your right arm behind your head.
Gold Move 2: Point up with your right hand two times and nod your head.

Trivia[]
General[]
- There are some mistakes in the in-game lyrics:
- "It’s one nation" is misinterpreted as "There’s one nation".
- "Under goons" is misinterpreted as "On the goons".
- "My goons are stripped and always/cast out in their underoos" is misinterpreted as "My goons are strippin’ all/These cast out in the under rooms".
- The orchestral instrumental version of Narco was used as one the songs in Ubisoft’s E3 2018 press conference.[2]
Routine[]
- Narco was the third map to have undergone changes in its Gold Moves upon its release on Just Dance+, after Soy Yo and Blinding Lights.
- However, among such maps, it was the first one to keep the same number of Gold Moves.
- The phrase "Salto ergo sum" in the background translates to "I dance, therefore I am".[3][4]
- It is a reference to René Descartes’ statement "Cogito ergo sum" ("I think, therefore I am").
- The coach appears in the background of Mad Love in a different color palette.
- An unused pictogram is seen in a promotional picture.
- This pictogram is used on Just Dance Now and Just Dance+ but not on Just Dance 2019 or on Just Dance Unlimited.
- During E3, the difficulty rating of Narco was Easy; however, it was changed to Medium in the final game.
- The background is less detailed in the seventh generation version of Just Dance 2019.
- In the video advertising the new Just Dance+ releases of September 26, 2024, the original pictograms are reused instead of the remade ones.[5]
