This article is about the song by Wham!. You may be looking for the song by Avicii with a similar name.

"Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go" by Wham! is featured on Just Dance 2, Just Dance Unlimited, and Just Dance Now. It was also planned to be on Just Dance: Greatest Hits and Just Dance: Best Of, but was scrapped for unknown reasons.

The song also has an alternate routine from The Emoji Movie on Just Dance Unlimited and Just Dance Now.

Appearance of the Dancer

Original

The dancer is a man with pink curly hair. He is wearing a green v-neck sweater with a pink shirt tucked underneath. He is also wearing a pink wristband, blue and pink baseball shorts, pink socks, white and green checkered Converse shoes, and pink sunglasses.

Remake

In the remake, he looks slightly more realistic, and the pattern of his shoes is much more visible. He fades away with a bubbly effect.

Background

Original

The background is green with cyan baseball lights shining on the wall. The wall has pink lines in the upper middle.

Remake

The remade background looks more detailed and animated, and repeats of the word GO are seen. The background has a center light that follows the beat of the song, and some elements have intermittent lights. During the bridge and the Gold Moves, a spotlight illuminates the coach from above.

Gold Moves

There are 2 Gold Moves in this routine, both of which are the same:

Both Gold Moves: Raise both of your hands while rotating your hips.

Trivia

General

  • Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go is the first song by Wham! in the series.
  • Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go is the second song to have an Alternate based off of a pop culture promotion, after Chiwawa.
    • However, this is the first to be based off a full motion picture and not a straight-to TV series of movies.
  • In Just Dance 2, the pictogram arrow beats at 82 BPM; in Just Dance Unlimited, it beats at a faster rate of 164 BPM.
  • The menu icon for both routines can be found in the offline game files of Just Dance 2018.[citation needed]

Routine

  • The dancer’s left arm has a displacement at the start of the second pre-chorus: instead of stretching both arms out, he only stretches his right one.
    • He also does a mistake during the line "Take me dancing tonight": instead of putting his left hand on his hip, he keeps it open.
  • In Take On Me (Mashup), Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go has a Gold Move that was not part of the original routine.
  • Unused assets for Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go were found in the files of Just Dance: Greatest Hits, as well as in the Just Dance Now servers.
    • The unused Just Dance: Greatest Hits menu icon is utilized in Just Dance Unlimited instead of the renewed one from Just Dance Now.
  • A Beta pictogram can be found in the Just Dance Now files. It is mostly similar to its non-Beta counterpart, but its legs are closed.
  • In Just Dance Unlimited, the album coach has the same fade effect that is applied on coach selection images.[2]
  • In Just Dance Unlimited, only the right-hand moves are counted, even on camera consoles.
  • When Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go was added to Just Dance Unlimited, the avatar could be seen under the "Just Dance Unlimited Exclusives" section of the avatar selection menu instead of "Just Dance 2".
  • In Just Dance 2019, Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go is incorrectly placed in the "The 2010s Were Banging" playlist.
    • However, the Alternate is appropriately placed in "The Epic 80s".
