Eurobeat heard in new Netflix show
Posted: 07 Aug 2016, 07:42
Hey guys, long time eurobeat lover here. I was watching the new Netflix show "Stranger Things" which is set in the 80s, when I heard something that sounded suspiciously like eurobeat. Naturally I had to get to the bottom of it. After googling the lyrics to no avail I finally found a page listing songs from the show. It listed the song as "Every Little Bit - Jackie James".
I had never heard of this singer in eurobeat but a little more digging yielded a single copy of the song on Youtube and a link to a Japanese commercial music licensing website called Sakura Note. Seems they buy/produce/license music to be used mostly within the entertainment industry. I could not find much info on this Jackie James, other than a short blurb on Wikipedia stating that Jackie James is a songwriter who had written for the likes of Kylie Minogue, JLo, and more.
Anyways I just wanted to share this appearance of eurobeat in a mainstream show. The song is pretty catchy and reminiscent of 90s eurobeat.
Here's a link to the song on Youtube

And here's the link to the Japanese webpage where it came from originally.

I was pretty excited with this find and figured Eurobeat Prime would be the best place to share it. Been coming to this site for years and years but never made a forum account. Anyone know anything more about this song/singer? It's a bit of a mystery.
