"Dancing Hero (Eat You Up)" (ダンシング・ヒーロー (Eat You Up), Danshingu Hirō (Eat You Up)) is a song by Yōko Oginome. It is a cover of the 1985 song "Eat You Up" by British singer Angie Gold. The song was released on November 21, 1985.[2]

Background and release

"Dancing Hero (Eat You Up)" is a cover of the 1985 song "Eat You Up" by British singer Angie Gold with translated[citation needed] Japanese lyrics.[1] It was first released in Japan on November 21, 1985 and became an immediate hit, propelling Oginome to fame.[1] The song won numerous awards and also allowed Oginome to perform at the 37th Kōhaku Uta Gassen in 1986.[1]

The song resurfaced to public attention in 2017, where the dance club from Tomioka High School in Sakai, Osaka used the song for their routine reworked with Dead or Alive's 1985 song "You Spin Me Round (Like a Record)" and catch phrases from comedian Nora Hirano.[3] During the dance, the students wore costumes paying homage to the 1980s.[3] Their routine first gained media interest when they won second place at Dance Stadium, a national high school dance competition, in August, with the choreography named the "bubbly dance" after the economic bubble in Japan during the 1980s.[3] When a video featuring the "bubbly dance" was uploaded onto YouTube, it gained 2.5 million likes within the first two days.[3] The dance routine renewed interest in "Dancing Hero (Eat You Up)", and Oginome praised Tomioka Dance Club.[3]

In December 2017, Oginome released a special long play titled Dancing Hero: All Eat You Up in honor of the song's 30th anniversary, containing all versions of the song she had released over the past 30 years, along with a new music video for the song.[1]

Cover versions

In 2018, Celeb Five, a South Korean parody group consisting of comedians Song Eun-i, Shin Bong-sun, Ahn Young-mi, Kim Young-hee, and Kim Shin-young, released a mondegreen parody of the song titled "Celeb Five (I Wanna Be a Celeb)", borrowing the bubbly dance choreography and concept from Tomioka Dance Club.[4][5] The music video was directed by Shindong from Super Junior.[6]
