Two Miles An HourLudacris
The song used in the iPhone 14 Plus commercial “Running Battery” is “Two Miles an Hour.” It’s a track by rapper and actor Ludacris.
He’s well known for appearing in the car-themed Fast & Furious series, and he’s also said to love cars in his private life.
This song expresses his deep affection for cars.
Since the commercial also features a wagon running, it’s a perfect match.
Become a flowerflumpool
“Hana ni Nare” is a digital-only single released in 2008 as flumpool’s major-label debut.
It was selected as the campaign song for au KDDI’s “LISMO,” and was also used as the commercial song for the “PAINT IT MUSIC” ad in the same campaign.
It drew attention as the first time au chose a pre–major debut artist’s song for a “LISMO” campaign.
It’s a fast-paced rock tune—definitely give it a listen!
GALAXYRIP SLYME
This commercial showcases the big news that Galaxy has arrived from SoftBank through two patterns: “Apple and Truck” and “The Enormous Turnip.” The concept is that a hidden advertisement becomes visible due to some event, but your attention first goes to the trouble unfolding.
The song that plays at the end of the video is RIP SLYME’s “GALAXY,” and the CM even incorporates the word SoftBank.
With its uniquely floating, airy sound, the track evokes images of cutting-edge technology and a near-future world.
Ellen’s Songs No. 3Franz Peter Schubert
This is one of the popular ads from au’s “Overly High-Aspiration Takasugikun” series.
This time, Jun Saito appears as the nephew of Ms.
Chosugi, played by Nanase Nishino.
Ryunosuke Kamiki tries to teach Saito, who has come to choose his first smartphone, but it turns out Saito is also well-versed in smartphones and au’s pricing plans.
Kamiki’s endearingly futile efforts are quite charming, aren’t they?
PRISMNiziU
This is the song featured in the commercials for Sony’s Xperia 5 V smartphone and LinkBuds S earphones.
It was included on the album “COCONUT,” released in July 2023.
The commercials also drew attention because members of NiziU appeared in them.
With its powerful beat, a vibrant EDM-like track, and the members’ strong vocal performances, the song really builds momentum and comes together as a very cool track.
Sugar Baby LoveThe Rubettes
The Rubettes are a British band that had a hit in the 1970s with the doo-wop style song “Sugar Baby Love.” It was used in a 2014 au WALLET commercial and a 2017 Y!mobile commercial.
