Eurobeat is a genre that gained popularity as a mainstream form of dance music in the 1980s.

This time, we’re introducing some classic Eurobeat tracks!

From songs everyone has heard at least once to timeless hits covered by Japanese artists—check out this curated selection of must-hear classics!

[Grooving to Classic Albums] Eurobeat of the World: Recommended Popular Tracks (41–50)

Tell It To My HeartTaylor Dayne

It was Taylor Dayne’s debut single, capturing the wave of late-’80s dance music and becoming a global hit.

When the song’s creator, Seth Swirsky, first wrote it, he imagined it being sung by Madonna.

The track was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Pop Vocal Performance.

Boom, Boom, Boom, Boom!!Vengaboys

Vengaboys – Boom, Boom, Boom, Boom!!
Boom, Boom, Boom, Boom!!Vengaboys

A track released in 1999 by the Dutch Eurodance group Vengaboys.

It reached the Top 10 on charts around the world.

It was inspired by ABBA’s 1981 track “Lay All Your Love on Me.”

TonightKen Laszlo

I don’t think there are many songs that bring out such a strong Eurobeat vibe right from the intro.

The feel of the track, the slightly long intro, the use of backing vocals, and the striking beat of the rhythm section all make it a piece that fits the definition of Eurobeat perfectly.

The Loco-MotionKYLIE MINOGUE

Kylie Minogue is a singer-songwriter from Australia.

She also worked as an actress, so those who lived through the late 1980s may already know her.

She has produced several hit songs, but one of her most popular works is The Loco-Motion.

Since it’s a track from a time before the Eurobeat genre was established as it is today, it feels different from modern Eurobeat.

Don’t leave meFourteen 14

Fourteen 14 is an Italian Eurodance project by DJ and vocalist Sabrina Perugini.

The project name comes from Sabrina’s lucky number, “14.” This track was released as a single in 1994.

Toy BoySinitta

Speaking of Sinitta, I think this song is definitely her most famous.

Of course, she has many other excellent tracks, but when it comes to Sinitta, it’s got to be Toy Boy.

No matter when you listen to it, its irrepressible brightness lifts your spirits—one of the defining traits that ran through early Eurobeat as a whole.
