I was still in elementary school when the original song was a big hit.<br> | |||
During the peak of idol groups, it was trendy among adolescent boys at that time to listen to Western music, and I feel like they were saying that Japan was somewhat useless~.<br> | |||
This is a fast, cheerful rearranged version that can be enjoyed by those who knew and didn't know this song during that time.<br> | |||
I've included all the interesting parts of this track in the game, so do your best to play without somehow tiring your hands. | |||

During the production of 3rd style, as a whirlwind of (high-speed and powerful) Eurobeat continued to race through my heart and body, dj TAKA repeatedly requested for more Eurobeat songs to be included (actually, they're popular on a major level!), so when the idea for a tie-up with DANCE EXPRESS Hi-speed came up, I immediately pressured the staff to include them.<br> | |||
This song especially feels good to listen to in a high-speed vehicle (cars, motorcycles, bicycles... to each of their own), and feels refreshing, like racing to reach the heavens, and feels uplifting, like viewing a beautiful and very clear sea ahead.<br> | |||
For the movie, I tried to aim for a girl racing in her car (I was very happy to see many people in my department who loved Eurobeat and cars), and I think there are many people who actually want to play this song on your CD player while driving to the sea on a slightly sunny day.<br> | |||
If you do, let's make sure to follow the traffic laws and drive safely. | |||
