"Come On Feel The Ecstasy" (later retitled to "Come On Feel The X-tasy") is a song performed by Davide Di Marcantonio under the alias John Desire. It is an English Eurobeat cover of the 1985 hit-single "仮面舞踏会" (Kamen Butōkai, Masquerade dance) by the Japanese idol male group Shonentai. The cover was produced and arranged by Di Marcantonio and John Fireball and translated by Gary Perlman around 2000, making its first album appearance that year in the mixed compilation "Dancemania Euro★Mix Happy Paradise" on August 23, 2000, and later was released together with five other songs: "Boom Boom Dollar (Red Monster 2000 Mix)" by King Kong & D'Jungle Girls, "Upside Down (Hyper Euro Mix)" by Coo Coo, "Sky High" by Lucyfer, "My Heart Will Go On (Euro Remix)" by Deja Vu ft. Tasmin, and "Tokyo All Ready" by Judy Crystal in a promotional 12-inch maxi-release of the album the same year by Intercord Japan. Later, the song was released as a digital single by Eurobeat Masters on May 27, 2008.
[Verse 1]
So shy you seem, careful to care not at all
Spin around, spin around
Clinging to your heart (heart)
So it won't fall
[Verse 2]
But what is the truth under the mask that you wear?
Let it go, let it go
Throw away
The foolish pride inside
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Follow the magic in the music,
All of your wildest dreams come true
Don't be afraid of your emotions,
Think of what's waiting for you
A brand new world opens up its loving arms to you.
[Chorus 1]
Wake up, desire! (I need you, don't you know?)
Light up your fire! (I love you, no, no, no!)
Go cast your spell and make her love me,
Please, please, please!
Wake up, desire! (I want you, no, no, no!)
Light up your fire! (I love you, no, no, no!)
Old devil rhythm, turn her heart to me
Rhythm, turn her heart to...
[Verse 3]
You turn away, claiming you want to be free
Spin around, spin around
Warm and safe inside (inside)
Your loneliness
[Verse 4]
But don't be afraid of heartbreaks that may never be
Let it go, let it go
Take away
The mask and look my way
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Open your mind and feel the music,
Ride on the tide of the swelling tune
Fighting your heart is like a wave
Fighting the pull of the moon
Look in my eyes, can't you see I want you here in my arms?
[Chorus 2]
Wake up, desire! (You want me, don't you know?)
Light up your fire! (You need me, don't you know?)
Don't leave me hanging on forever,
Stop, stop, stop!
Wake up, desire! (I want you, no, no, no!)
Light up her fire! (I love you, no, no, no!)
Old devil rhythm, bring her love to me.
Come On Feel The Ecstasy,
Come dance away with me,
Hold me tight...
Hold me tight!
