Shock! (Cute song)
"Shock!" is the eleventh major single by Japanese idol pop group Cute. It was released on January 6, 2010, in both normal and limited editions, the limited edition containing a DVD with a version of the "Shock!" PV on it and coming with a different cover. The first press of each edition also contained a card with a serial number on it, used in an event draw to promote the single's release. This was the first single to be released after Erika Umeda's graduation, which also makes it the first single not to feature her. Airi Suzuki is "centred" in this single, taking on the main vocals. The single peaked at #1 on the Oricon daily charts, and #5 on the weekly charts. The single also reached #13 on the monthly chart for January, with a reported total of 23,389 copies sold.

Shock (Beast song)
"Shock" is a song by the South Korean boy group Beast. It's the first single from their second EP "Shock of the New Era" which was released on March 1, 2010 along with the EP. The song introduced a new genre called Rocktronic, which is a combination of rock and electronic music.
A Japanese version was released on March 16, 2011 which serves as their debut single in Japan. It ranked #2 in the Oricon daily and weekly chart with 28,532 copies sold in the first week, beating the debut single of Big Bang's “My Heaven” at no. 3 in 2009.
Background
In February 2010, Cube Entertainment announced that Beast will be returning into the music scene with a powerful chic black-toned concept, deviating from the image they portrayed from their debut single. "Shock" was originally set for release on March 2, 2010 together with the EP, but was moved back a day earlier because it was leaked on YouTube. Despite the leak, the song was able to enter the Top 10 Chart on different music portals.
