That's The Magic is the placeholder name for an unknown pop song, originating from a promotional Japanese S-VHS tape in the late 1980s.
The song originates from a promotional S-VHS called "The World of High Quality", which was a tape used to showcase the image quality of the HR-S7000 VCR. The tape was made in the late 1980s and sold exclusively in Japan. The song was most likely made for the tape.
A transfer of the promotional tape was originally posted to YouTube on 22 May 2021 by user Reely Interesting, where the background music is the song in question. The model in the video is assumed to be Victoria Lockwood, a former British fashion model.
OP provided some additional information in the video description, clarifying that it was a promotional S-VHS video cassette produced by National (Panasonic / Matsushita) and only sold in Japan. They had not further information regarding the origins of the song.
On 19 February 2024, the song was posted to WatZatSong by user windlamp. They said it was from the late 1980s or early 1990s and also gave it the placeholder name "That's The Magic". They claimed they found the song on a Sony digital voice recorder but didn't have a longer snippet.

Baby what you wanna realise is you to hear
Everything starts with me, know that I mean
Colour what's in your mind, you could do down on the ground
I believe just to think that's loving
I'll make you be true
And take you off the blue
So many feelings around you are coming to us
That's the magic
I'll stick to for free
And love you like a dream
So any aching can feel like it never ends
Now let’s get...
What?
It's the new, it's the birth of the unknown
What?
It's the new, it's the way, ain't it true, oh
I'll make it through
The beating heart that moves so you keep shining
And never be lost your own way
That's the magic
I'll treat you so tight
Because you can see the light
You have to go on and go on until you make your day
Now let's get...
