Song Connections / Remixes[]

- PARANOiA Revolution's Single Expert chart uses a portion of Dance Dance Revolution's Single Challenge chart.
Trivia[]
- Dance Dance Revolution is the Encore Extra Stage song of Dance Dance Revolution EXTREME. It is accessible after clearing The legend of MAX on Heavy with a AA rank or better. Unlike every other boss song, Dance Dance Revolution is played on the Challenge difficulty when played as an Encore Extra Stage.
- In the arcade version of DDR X, Dance Dance Revolution is one of the X-Special boss songs. In this case, it is the ENCORE EXTRA STAGE X-Special boss song of the DDR EXTREME folder.
- In the North American PlayStation 2 version of DDR X2, it is the first FINAL STAGE song.
- Dance Dance Revolution is the final MISSION Stage 05 unlock song on DDR Dance Wars. The objectives to unlock it are:
- Dance Dance Revolution's Challenge charts are made up of fragments of Expert charts from past songs, in this order: BRILLIANT 2U(Orchestra Groove)→DEAD END→DYNAMITE RAVE→AFRONOVA→END OF THE CENTURY→AM-3P→CELEBRATE NITE→B4U→Original chart.
- PARANOiA Revolution's Single Expert chart borrows a portion of Dance Dance Revolution's Challenge chart, specifically the first four measures of the latter chart.
- Dance Dance Revolution's Beginner chart was rated a 3 on the old 1-10 scale despite the song being only 150 BPM because of the heavy amount of jumps in the chart. It was rerated to a 1 on DDR SuperNOVA. A similar situation occurs with CHAOS, where the Beginner chart is rated a 4 due to the high Chaos value despite the song being only 170 BPM.
- Dance Dance Revolution is the first boss song to have actual lyrics.
- None of Dance Dance Revolution's charts have freeze arrows except for the Difficult charts.
- As of DanceDanceRevolution 2013, Dance Dance Revolution now has its own background video from DanceDanceRevolution EXTREME.
- The X-Special also has the background video, though shown on the purple Replicant D-action stage.
- To unlock REVOLUTION, play this song once. The X-Special chart does not count towards this.
