Lyrics

Can't believe you are here
It seems just like a dream
But when you look in my eyes,
Your love becomes so clear to me

It's been so long but now you're right here
Lying by my side
I know how you really feel
Baby, please never let me go

Baby, Let's love, love, love again and again tonight
Everything is so right
Then the two of us can remember sweet sweet love

You're the one makes me feel this way
Yes it's you and I love you so

Baby, let's love, love, love again and again tonight
All the night make it right
Stay the whole night right through, lying here by my side

Love, love, love again and again tonight
Make me feel so right
You, only you who knows, how to love me so right

NAOKI

Following CAN'T STOP FALLIN' IN LOVE and BROKEN MY HEART is the final song in my second Euro song series, which respects my basic policies of "valuing the lyrics and melodies".
Actually, three types and versions of LOVE AGAIN TONIGHT exist, with IIDX including the same version as For Mellisa mix in DDR4th MIX.

NAOKI MAEDA

This song marks the end of NAOKI's second Euro series, following CAN'T STOP FALLIN' IN LOVE and BROKEN MY HEART, and it's a Eurobeat song that makes you listen to the melody more than the rhythm. Also, please pay attention to the connection of the lyrics from the three songs. They contain some sort of message.........
This song is also my favorite among the new songs I created for 4th.

NAOKI MAEDA

And LOVE AGAIN TONIGHT marks the end of NAOKI's second Euro song series, following CAN'T STOP FALLIN' IN LOVE and BROKEN MY HEART. This is my favorite song among the original songs created for this game, and the melody line is specially important to make good use in Eurobeat. By all means, please pay attention to the message contained in the lyrics of the three songs in NAOKI's second Euro song series.

Liner Notes

This is a catchy and royal Eurobeat number which follows "BROKEN MY HEART" from DanceManiax. The Australian-born vocalist PAULA TERRY's emotional singing voice is worth listening to many times. As the chorus approaches, the passion gradually increases, and the "LOVE, LOVE, LOVE......" refrain moves your heart at the climax. This song is recommended for female D.D.R. players in love and couples who love dancing.

TAKE ON ME is gone, so I just revived its animations (choreography).
It's a new drawing, so it's not reused.
My hidden theme this time was the challenge of drawing in an anime style, and this is one of those derived from that.
Every time I draw a picture for IIDX, I'm free to do so, so it's fun.
If you want to draw easily, it's faster to draw with 2nd touch, but....
