Feel My Heart (Eurobeat Mix)Every Little Thing
This is Every Little Thing’s “Fragile.” It’s also famous for being used on the TV show Ainori! The original track is of course wonderful, but what’s amazing is that even when it’s remixed into dance music like Eurobeat, it doesn’t lose any of its charm.

The powerful vocals of these four go amazingly well with Eurobeat.
MAX’s songs are all easy to sing and irresistibly catchy without getting old, so even when they’re arranged into Eurobeat, you can still enjoy them as pop music.
Back then, they were on every music show, showing off their sharp dance moves.
