The lyrics to Craig David's "Re-Rewind" are essentially about the experience of being on a dancefloor, with the DJ responsible for keeping the energy up and making the crowd go wild. The song starts with the phrase "Re-Rewind, Enter, Selecta" which is a nod to the way old school reggae and dancehall DJs would rewind the tracks they were playing to repeat popular parts of the song. From there, David and Artful Dodger urge the listener to "make moves" and dance "hardcore" while they keep the party going by switching up the beats and getting the crowd hyped.
The chorus "Re-Rewind, when the crowd say Bo Selecta" is a call and response phrase that encourages the audience to participate and make noise. "Bo Selecta" was originally a catchphrase used on a British comedy show called "The Fast Show" which David and Artful Dodger adopted and repurposed as part of the song. Throughout the track, the artists emphasize the symbiotic relationship between DJs and their audiences, showcasing the importance of getting listeners engaged and in the zone. Overall, "Re-Rewind" celebrates the power of music and dance to bring people together in a joyful, energetic way.
