"Shake" (stylized "SHAKE") is a song by South Korean pop-rock idol band CNBLUE. It was released on May 10, 2017, as its 11th single under Warner Music Japan and 14th single overall in Japan. The song was written by members Jung Yong-hwa and Lee Jong-hyun, along with composers Albi Albertsson and Justin Reinstein.

The single was released in four editions: Regular Edition, Limited Editions A and B, and a fan club-only Boice Limited Edition. "Shake" debuted on the weekly Oricon Singles Chart at number five. The band has embarked on the CNBLUE Spring Live 2017 "Shake! Shake!" arena tour, where they will hold six concerts in Tokyo, Aichi, and Osaka.

Composition and recording

"Shake" was written by frontman Jung Yong-hwa, who composed the song along with bandmate Lee Jong-hyun and musicians Albi Albertsson and Justin Reinstein.[1] It is a dance-pop song which is evocative of "early summer feels".[2][3] While writing the song, Jung imagined working as a salaryman "doing a job I don't like and didn't suit me", concluding that, "we should forget such difficult times together because working is difficult no matter the job".[4] The band sought to conceive a "fun song", with Jung wanting to "cheer up the listener".[5]

The four composers met during a song camp, where they wrote "Shake". While production took place in studio, the track was arranged after they deliberated between each other; they ultimately decided on a "bright" atmosphere for the song.[4]

"Shake" was announced as CNBLUE's 11th single on March 9, 2017, with a release date of May 10; a music video teaser for "Shake" was simultaneously uploaded on YouTube that day.[3] A video digest for the single was unveiled on April 3.[6] A choreography video was released on April 14.[7] This was followed by the full music video was released five days later.
