"Dancing On The Street" is a song by Davide Di Marcantonio under his alias David Dima. Produced in 2013, the song made its first album appearance in "Super Eurobeat Vol. 224 - Extended Version" on July 17th 2013, alongside of being released in a digital single that year. Later the single was re-released on Dima Music's Bandcamp page on August 25, 2024.
There are two alternative versions of the song, one called "Toukon" and the other "Black Shadow", both with almost the same instrumental but different lyrics. Probably this were the first drafts of the song that were later changed in request of Avex, in order to make it fit in the Super Eurobeat series.

[Intro]
We-welcome to the night (night, night)
Da-Da-Dancing On The Street!
We-we-welcome to the night, Dancing On The Street!
Dancing On The Street, yeah!
[Verse 1]
We are made to be together
Let me try with you
Everytime my heart is pumping
Feel my love so true
[Pre-Chorus]
I wanna stay with you, gimme me some loving
Never let you go away
We can fly together
Tonight is made for loving you!
[Chorus]
Welcome to the night, Dancing On The Street!
Come on baby, light my fire
I've got the power, ready to fly!
Love is all you need
Welcome to the night, Dancing On The Street!
Let the music play forever!
Take me to the top, ready for your love!
Break the time
Dancing On The Street, yeah!
[Verse 2]
We are made to be together
I wanna trust in you
Every night I wait you, baby
I feel my love so true
