* Chances are that if you've seen the hit TV/OVA/Movie series, ''{{LightNovel/Slayers}}'', you've found yourself humming along to one of the ''many'' songs sung by Megumi. They are just that catchy and memorable to any long-time anime fan. One of the most, if not THE most iconic song is [[https://youtu.be/1hqg4y9_uTc Give a Reason]] from the 2nd TV series opening. It is so popular that it was used in one of the climax scenes at the end of the new series - nearly 15 years after the original run.

Bonus points for the fact that all four were sung by the same girl who also voices Anna Kyoyama.

%% WeblinksAreNotExamples. Just a Youtube link with no further explanation is not a proper example. Explain what makes these songs awesome so that someone who hasn't even heard OF the tracks in question, never mind heard them, understands why they're awesome without clicking on the link. If the video is taken down, the example is literally completely empty.
