Jerk It Out

**"Jerk It Out"** by Caesars is featured on *Just Dance*.

## Appearance of the Dancer

### Original

The dancer is a man who resembles a nerd. He has blue-white frizzy hair, wears a green shirt, an orange bow tie, orange knee-length pants with white suspenders, and blue shoes with orange socks.

### Remake

In the remake, he has a light blue outline and a lighter color palette. At the beginning of the routine, he gets his colors with an animation made of filling rectangles. His hair is less detailed, whereas it is the opposite with the other parts.

## Background

### Original

The background is a bottle green library. There are some dark green bookshelves at the sides of the background, and some white and green paper sheets are seen flying around.

### Remake

In the remake, the background is in shades of aqua green and only shows five stylized bookshelves (two on the left and three on the right), which bounce and jump according to the coach’s moves. Sometimes, sheets of paper in shades of white and green levitate from the bookshelves.

During the bridge, the bookshelves slide to the right and get replaced by other identical ones.

At the end, while the coach runs away from the screen, the scenery trembles as if there was an earthquake, and it then fades to black.

## Trivia

### General

* There is a lyric error: a line says "Can’t you hear you talk **to** loud?" instead of "Can’t you hear you talk **too** loud?".
	+ This has not been fixed in the remake.[2]
* In the remake, the word "to" from "You’ve got to jerk it out" is not displayed the first time it is sung.

### Routine

* This routine and *Groove Is in the Heart* are the only remaining routines from the first *Just Dance* game to have a difficulty of 3, because every other song with a difficulty of 3 was reduced to 2 in *Just Dance 3* and *Just Dance: Greatest Hits*/*Best Of*, while these two songs are only in *Just Dance*.
* The beta version of the dancer had a slightly lighter color scheme and he looked more like a cartoon character.
	+ Also in the beta version, the background was slightly darker.
* This is one of the only two routines that has both a difficulty and an effort of 3 in *Just Dance*. The other song is *Acceptable in the 80s*.
