Time goes by
Every Little Thing
Released in February 1998, this song was the duo's (back then they were trio) 8th single. This is one of the most popular Jpop songs of the 90s. Every Little Thing was called as "ELT" and they had many hit songs back then.
I'm not especially a fan of ELT but whenever I hear this song, it brings back memories of that time. Time sure goes by quickly...
