To MomAI
As the title suggests, it’s a moving song whose lyrics express gratitude to one’s mother.
It’s a track by AI, an R&B singer known for her soulful vocals, released as a digital single in 2013.
The song was used in Lotte’s “Ghana Milk Chocolate” commercial.
Its message, directed to that one irreplaceable person in the world, is something anyone can relate to.
It conveys, with straightforward honesty, “I’m here now thanks to you.” If you’re living away from your hometown, it might even make you want to go back home.
save your dreamTomomi Kahala
Tomomi Kahala’s “save your dream,” released in 1996, is her fifth single.
Its fresh, comfortable up-tempo sound paired with Kahala’s soaring high tones is truly one of a kind.
Despite the song’s difficulty, her high notes are beautifully delivered—her vocal prowess is breathtaking.
Not only the singing but also her fashion and makeup at the time likely inspired many women.
Written and composed by Tetsuya Komuro, this song perfectly matches Sasa’s sense of innovation.
Run&GoJO1
The song featured in the KitKat “Tell Us Who You Stan!” commercial is “Run & Go” by the global male idol group JO1.
It’s included as a B-side track on their single “WANDERING,” released in 2021.
The lyrics express the desire to go anywhere together with someone wonderful who’s doing what they love and what brings them joy.
Carried by a refreshing melody, the message makes you feel as if your current efforts are being cheered on.
umbrellaKing Gnu
The song used in the Alfort commercial featuring Kentaro Sakaguchi is King Gnu’s “Kasa” (“Umbrella”).
Its cool, tricky melody perfectly matches Alfort’s image as a chocolate for adults and really leaves an impression.
The lyrics describe a heart after a breakup, where emotions are all mixed together as if a torrential downpour is raging inside.
Although the lyrics are heartbreaking, they don’t leave you with just sadness—perhaps thanks to the evocative words crafted by King Gnu’s vocalist and lyricist, Daiki Tsuneta.
The music video, animated to look almost like a still image at first glance, gradually changes as the song progresses.
It’s a track whose MV is also well worth paying attention to.
Fashion Leader feat. Soy SauceORANGE RANGE
It’s an uplifting, high-energy tune that draws you in with its funky sound and unique lyrics.
The song is by ORANGE RANGE, an Okinawan mix-genre rock band known for hits like “Hana” and “Shanghai Honey,” and it was released in 2008 as their 20th single.
It was also used in Ezaki Glico’s Pocky Chocolate commercial.
With its bouncy rhythm throughout and an unforgettable melody line, it’s packed with charm—you’ll find yourself wanting to sing along before you know it.
ThomassonMacaroni Enpitsu
The song “Tomason” by Macaroni Empitsu is featured in Bourbon’s Rich Chocolate Brownie commercial, the “no doubt” edition.
Released digitally in 2021, the song was written specifically for the audio novel “no doubt” tied to the product.
The novel was newly written by Yoru Sumino, with characters voiced by actors such as Hiro Shimono and Yuki Kaji.
The lyrics, which depict the mysterious exchanges and relationship between “Tomason” from the title and the song’s protagonist, make the track feel like reading a standalone novel.
MajesticB’z
This song, included on B’z’s 21st album NEW LOVE released in 2019, was written specifically for Ezaki Glico’s Pocky commercial.
With few instruments, its very simple sound leaves a strong impression.
That simplicity seems to express the “small happiness found in everyday life” embedded in the music.
It’s a heartwarming track where a sound that evokes that happiness and vocals that convey hope for the future come together.
