[KFC] Latest Kentucky Fried Chicken Commercials Summary (1–10)
KFC 1992 Commercial
This commercial introduces a set that lets you enjoy a variety of Kentucky’s items at a great value: six pieces of chicken and pumpkin biscuits.
It’s a simple concept that shows what’s inside the box and how it’s arranged; precisely because there isn’t much explanation, it heightens your anticipation about how everything will taste.
That sense of expectation and fun conveyed by the visuals is highlighted by Agnes Chan’s light, airy singing voice.
The song adapts the lyrics of the English-language folk tune “Ten Little Indians” to be about chicken, and its bouncy rhythm gives an impression of excitement and uplift.
KFC 1995 Christmas commercial
The 25th single by Mariya Takeuchi, produced by Tatsuro Yamashita.
It’s a perfect party song, seemingly crafted by working backward from the idea of a cozy family home gathering.
Even with its upbeat Eurobeat foundation, it’s brimming with Mariya Takeuchi’s signature flavor—proof of producer Yamashita’s skill.
An ideal track for a home party where everyone shares Kentucky Fried Chicken.
It also drew attention for mentioning Takuya Kimura, aka “Kimutaku,” near the end of the lyrics.
Kentucky Fried Chicken Colonel Box “PRESENTATION” EditionHideaki Takizawa, Ken Miyake
A special unit by V6’s Ken Miyake and former Tackey & Tsubasa member Hideaki Takizawa, KEN☆Tackey! Their debut single “Gyaku Ten Lovers” was featured in a Kentucky Fried Chicken commercial.
The English in the chorus sounds like “Kentucky,” and even the unit’s name is pronounced “Kentucky,” making it feel inseparably linked to KFC! Both of them appear in the commercial, showing a fun back-and-forth.
The song has a friendly, poppy melody—perfect as BGM for a fun party while enjoying some KFC!

KFC “Kenta Festival 2009” Version
It’s a very upbeat, positive song that’s so characteristic of GReeeeN.
When it comes on, your body just naturally starts moving to the beat, doesn’t it? The rhythm even feels a bit like samba, doesn’t it? It was also used as the CM song for Kentucky’s “Kenta Festival 2009.” It’s perfect for a lively party and definitely a track you’ll want to add to your party-boosting BGM.
GReeeeN, who have balanced careers as dentists and artists since their debut, remain shrouded in secrecy—making their activities all the more intriguing!
KFC 1997 Christmas commercial
This is the memorable 40th single, released in 1997.
The song, which depicts the end of a bittersweet love echoing at summer’s close, makes you want to slap your knee and say, “That’s Kuwata for you!” It’s a must-listen even if you’re not a fan.
It’s kind of mysterious how such a bittersweet breakup song could also fit a Kentucky Fried Chicken commercial.
The title “BLUE HEAVEN” literally means “blue heaven,” and while it might suggest a song set by the sea, there’s also an interpretation that the night sky, blurred by tears, looked blue.
How does it sound to you?
KFC 'HAPPY GATHERING DAY' VersionHaruka Ayase
This is the song used in a 2010 commercial for KFC’s 40th anniversary campaign.
As the title “Happy Gathering Day” suggests, many people will find comfort in its lyrics that invite everyone to come together and have fun.
The words feel like a gentle letter to family back home or to friends you’ve grown distant from—something only Tatsuro Yamashita could capture.
Why is it that his voice is so soothing? It’s a perfect match for the image of everyone gathering to enjoy Kentucky Fried Chicken together.
