* In the DanceDanceRevolution series, MARIA (I believe... )'s title and artist were slightly changed to '''MARIA(I believe...)''' and '''NAOKI feat. PAULA TERRY''' respectively.
** Before [[AC DDR X2|DanceDanceRevolution X2]], its title was shown with a space between title and subtitle, as '''MARIA (I believe...)'''.
* MARIA(I believe...) received a unique video in the DanceDanceRevolution series. In the arcade releases, it eliminates any on-screen dancers.
** This video can be found unused in the [[AC tricoro|beatmania IIDX 20 tricoro]] data. However, unlike [[Make A Difference]] that had its video extended, MARIA (I believe...)'s video is still based on the shorter version found in the DanceDanceRevolution series.


* Also appears in ''Dance Dance Revolution Extreme 2'', ''Strike'', and the ''SuperNOVA'' arcade games.

== Music Production Info ==
I wrote this Eurobeat song after passing some kind of milestone.<br>
During its production process, I often felt similar feelings to the time I worked on [[CAN'T STOP FALLIN' IN LOVE|CAN'T STOP FALL'IN IN LOVE]], and I completed this sorrowful, intense Eurobeat song after a long time... I was convinced of it. The vocalist who has the greatest compatibility with my Eurobeat sound is still Paula Terry.<br>
As usual, I can't separate myself from Paula Terry's singing and magical lyrics.<br>
By the way, the song title named "MARIA" can be compared to my current "feelings" in words.

With NAOKI's explosive melodies, his NAOKI-world songs are pleasant and suited for sound games, right?<br>
Personally, I like NAOKI's songs because they're easy to play.<br>
(But I can only clear them on LIGHT7, how embarrassing)
