== Remixes ==
== Song Connections / Remixes ==
* The DanceDanceRevolution series uses a shorter version of Make A Difference.
* A live medley of [[Spica]], [[OVER THE CLOUDS]], and Make A Difference was played at the beatmania IIDX secret LIVE ~one night premium party~ on September 13th, 2003. This medley can be found on the ''BEMANIトップランカー決定戦 2006 Sound Tracks'', titled ''wacのライブ用トラック1。 ハウスっぽいやつ集めたの。''.
 
== Trivia ==
{{Gallery}}
* According to Jun Wakita, the original version of Make A Difference originally featured him doing the chorus of the song. This was later changed to sound closer to a song like [[Tamayura|たまゆら]].
** He also mentions that at one point Make A Difference would have featured acappella vocals. This was later ruled out due to the sheer difficulty of implementing them into a music game.
* Prior to [[AC DDR WORLD|DanceDanceRevolution WORLD]], Make A Difference's music video is shown full screen in the DanceDanceRevolution series, eliminating any on-screen dancers.
** As of [[AC tricoro|beatmania IIDX 20 tricoro]], Make A Difference features its video from the DanceDanceRevolution series, slightly extended to match the beatmania IIDX audio.
* Make A Difference being crossed over marks Jun Wakita's first appearance in the DanceDanceRevolution series.
* Make A Difference is an unlockable revival in [[AC EMPRESS|beatmania IIDX 16 EMPRESS]]. To unlock it, clear 1st Dan.
** It received brand-new Single HYPER/ANOTHER charts upon its revival.
** As of January 7th, 2009, it is available by default.
* Make A Difference received a Double ANOTHER chart in [[CS EMPRESS|beatmania IIDX 16 EMPRESS + PREMIUM BEST]]. This chart was carried over to the arcade releases in [[AC Resort Anthem|beatmania IIDX 18 Resort Anthem]].
** It also received a new BEGINNER chart in beatmania IIDX 16 EMPRESS + PREMIUM BEST.
* Make A Difference is currently the only song sung by Noriko Fukushima in ''any'' BEMANI arcade series.
** It's only her original BEMANI song she did not write the lyrics for herself.
* Make A Difference is unlockable in [[CS INFINITAS|beatmania IIDX INFINITAS]] from December 4th, 2019, after purchasing its charts with [[CS INFINITAS/BIT unlocks|BITs]].
 
== Song Production Information ==
=== wac ===
The sound director [[Takayuki Ishikawa|TAKA]] told me "OK, make a gospel song next".<br>
I'm wac, a former choir member. I'm still a choir member. Is it because I'm a choir guy?<br>
When I say choir, I mean a boys choir at a boys school, so it's a world where 100 young boys yell "hoiya, hoiya, shuuririenen".<br>
I wondered if it's similar to Tamayura. Rather, I said for it to be in that direction.<br>
I said "No, acapella is next". Something's different. No, acapella is impossible to include in this game.
 
Firstly.<br>
As it's often said, gospel means the Word of God.<br>
I'm a man who sometimes believes in God and Buddha? I wonder if I'm qualified to speak about the Word of God.<br>
However, TAKA told me "No, make a gospel song next".<br>
"But God still won't descend".
 
Therefore.<br>
So, I made a five-note quintet singing "tralalalala", to which God will honorably descend in the end, so please do your best to not be taken away from this world.<br>
Look, this is gospel! Or maybe it's pareidolia?<br>
Actually, MARI's cheerful lyrics, the up-and-coming gospel group CoCoRo*Co, and Lala Moore's session that transcended time-space, we somehow reached a gospel-like joyphilia, maybe, probably, no way, I don't know.


None.
For those who know such differences, I dedicate Make a Difference.<br>
This song isn't brought up as a topic in the first place, but when it's brought up, it's "tralalalala", so I created this for LIGHT7. Even now, I regret every night that I should've started creating this with NORMAL.<br>
God won't descend, so to those who are confident in playing this song, please sometimes rejoice in the joy of life.

== Video Production Information ==
=== VJ GYO ===
This is the first song with the "GOSPEL" genre included in the IIDX series, which feels unique.<br>
When I went on a sightseeing trip in America a long time ago, I had the opportunity to listen to a gospel music performance in a church in Harlem during an optional sightseeing tour of New York City.<br>
Regardless of music likes and dislikes, I remember feeling sincerely moved by all the deeply religious people singing in a way which integrated their daily rituals in everyday life.


None.
At that time, I didn't imagine it'd connect with music in IIDX, and conversely, even when I listen to this song, it doesn't connect with my image of that time.


== Trivia ==
However, I can see family and friends playing together, lovers talking to each other, and people walking their dogs at the local park... I was inspired seeing the locals having fun!<br>
* This song also appeared on ''Dance Dance Revolution EXTREME 2'' as well as ''Dance Dance Revolution STR!KE''.
I remember those happy and cheerful feelings of when I was among warm, gentle, and bright people who cheerfully called out to me!<br>
* So far, "Make A Difference" is the only gospel song in Beatmania IIDX. Like "The Safari," it is an 8  on IIDX RED and a 10 on Happy Sky for the 7Keys/Hyper difficulty. It also has no another. The song is notorious among most IIDX players, especially those who are still trying to pass hard 7key/Hyper songs, for its challenging ending which consist of fast rolls on the 1, 2, 6, and 7 keys that completely offset the rest of the song's notes which are somewhat straight forward. The scratch effect throughout most of the song is either a clapping or stomping noise, characteristic of gospel performances. The sound of a church bell is also used as a keysound.
As expected of this song!

Lyrics

Follow your dreams, follow your heart
Follow your dreams, follow your heart
Follow your dreams, follow your heart
Follow your dreams, follow your heart

When the world seems so lost in itself
and you feel that life is not so easy on you
Don't forget that you're not by yourself
For together we can make this world a better place

Give it a chance (There's time to save this planet now)
Give us a hand
Find the way to help Mother Earth (It is not too late to give her a chance)
Help make her proud (We can work a way to building up a new future)

Twinkling stars are watching us
The twinkling stars are watching from above (Keeping an eye on us)

What we do today can make another difference (Open your heart and your mind)
What we do today can make another difference (To the world now)
[Make a difference]
What we do today can make another difference (Open your heart and your mind)
What we do today can make another difference (To the world, do it now)

Together we can build a better world
Together we can make it better now
Together we can build a better world now
Together we can make it better now
Together we can build a better world
Together we can make it better now
Together we can build a better world Now's the time
Together we can make it better

Follow your dreams, follow your heart
Follow your dreams, follow your heart
Follow your dreams, follow your heart
Follow your dreams, yes you can
Follow your dreams, follow your heart
Follow your dreams, follow your heart
Follow your dreams, follow your heart
Follow your dreams

Follow your dreams!

Song Production Information

wac

The sound director TAKA told me "OK, make a gospel song next".
I'm wac, a former choir member. I'm still a choir member. Is it because I'm a choir guy?
When I say choir, I mean a boys choir at a boys school, so it's a world where 100 young boys yell "hoiya, hoiya, shuuririenen".
I wondered if it's similar to Tamayura. Rather, I said for it to be in that direction.
I said "No, acapella is next". Something's different. No, acapella is impossible to include in this game.

Firstly.
As it's often said, gospel means the Word of God.
I'm a man who sometimes believes in God and Buddha? I wonder if I'm qualified to speak about the Word of God.
However, TAKA told me "No, make a gospel song next".
"But God still won't descend".

Therefore.
So, I made a five-note quintet singing "tralalalala", to which God will honorably descend in the end, so please do your best to not be taken away from this world.
Look, this is gospel! Or maybe it's pareidolia?
Actually, MARI's cheerful lyrics, the up-and-coming gospel group CoCoRo*Co, and Lala Moore's session that transcended time-space, we somehow reached a gospel-like joyphilia, maybe, probably, no way, I don't know.

For those who know such differences, I dedicate Make a Difference.
This song isn't brought up as a topic in the first place, but when it's brought up, it's "tralalalala", so I created this for LIGHT7. Even now, I regret every night that I should've started creating this with NORMAL.
God won't descend, so to those who are confident in playing this song, please sometimes rejoice in the joy of life.

Video Production Information

VJ GYO

This is the first song with the "GOSPEL" genre included in the IIDX series, which feels unique.
When I went on a sightseeing trip in America a long time ago, I had the opportunity to listen to a gospel music performance in a church in Harlem during an optional sightseeing tour of New York City.
Regardless of music likes and dislikes, I remember feeling sincerely moved by all the deeply religious people singing in a way which integrated their daily rituals in everyday life.

At that time, I didn't imagine it'd connect with music in IIDX, and conversely, even when I listen to this song, it doesn't connect with my image of that time.

However, I can see family and friends playing together, lovers talking to each other, and people walking their dogs at the local park... I was inspired seeing the locals having fun!
I remember those happy and cheerful feelings of when I was among warm, gentle, and bright people who cheerfully called out to me!
As expected of this song!
