Every Little Thing (ELT) is a J-Pop and soft rock band (duo for the most of time, including the time when they sang for Inuyasha theme songs) from Japan who debuted in August 1996 with the release of their first single called "Feel My Heart". Also known as ELT, the band was originally a trio, but after 2000 became a duo with Kaori Mochida as the lead vocal singer and Ichiro Ito as the guitarist. They are back for just a short time as trio after soloed a period of time.
The first studio album, called "everlasting" was a big success, selling nearly two million copies in Japan, and marking ELT as a popular group that was about to stay for a long time in the public eye. The band reached #1 at the Oricon charts for the first time with their fourth single, "For the moment".
Although the number of releases may have decreased a little on the last years, they are still active and popular unlike other groups that started about the same time, such as "do as infinity" and "day after tomorrow".
