Kazuyoshi Saito – I’ve Always Loved You [Music Video]

Kazuyoshi Saito’s “Zutto Suki Datta” was released in 2010 and is a song that portrays unforgettable feelings for a beloved person.

The wild, classic rock–inspired guitar sound is striking and highlights the lyrics’ worldview of reminiscing about the past while still trying to move forward.

The song is featured in a Sapporo Ichiban commercial starring Hiroiki Ariyoshi and Nicole Fujita, which shows people making ramen with their own recipes and cheerfully conveys the unchanging deliciousness that’s been loved since long ago.

Kazuyoshi Saito – Wedding Song [Music Video Short ver.]

The TV commercials for the wedding magazine Zexy are among the most representative of the Heisei era, aren’t they? Among them, many people likely remember this particular commercial featuring Kana Kurashina, who served as the fourth “Zexy Girl.” The background music was Kazuyoshi Saito’s “Wedding Song,” which is also memorable to many.

The song was originally composed as a short piece specifically for the commercial, but due to the strong response after it aired, the rest was written and it was released as a CD—so the story goes.

Kazuyoshi Saito – Let’s Go on the Offensive! [Music Video Short ver.]

Just from the title “Let’s Go on the Offensive!”, this is the song you want to play when you want to feel exactly that way.

It was used as the CM song for Ukon no Chikara, the “Checkout” edition.

Kazuyoshi Saito’s songs always have this exquisite ease in saying exactly what needs to be said, often speaking for how we feel.

This track, too, is surely a number that gently gives anyone a push forward.

When you’re troubled or uncertain, when you don’t quite have the courage to take a step, why not let this song give you that nudge?

This is a single released by Kazuyoshi Saito in October 1995, which was used as the theme song for a Mazda Familia commercial.

It’s a song that makes you feel more at ease as you listen, so it’s great for times when you’re feeling down.

It’s also perfect as a companion for a drive.

This commercial showcases the car itself to highlight that with Blizzak, you can drive powerfully on any road surface.

The way it plows through the snow and then comes to a stop is particularly striking, and that imagery conveys a sense of security that supports the driver.

The song that strongly emphasizes the power of these visuals is Kazuyoshi Saito’s “Wadachi.” With its bold, resonant band sound and a forceful, almost thrown vocal delivery, you can feel the momentum of pushing forward.

It was released in 2009 as Kazuyoshi Saito’s 37th single.

It was issued as the lead single from the album “Tsuki ga Noboreba” (When the Moon Rises), and in 2011 it was also used as the campaign commercial song for JR East’s “Let’s Go, Tohoku” marking the first anniversary of the full opening of the Tohoku Shinkansen line.

Kazuyoshi Saito – Stick to fun! Tonight! [SHORT Ver.]

A song written by Kazuyoshi Saito in 2010 for a collaboration commercial between Space Shower TV and Pocky.

His co-starring appearance with actress Umika Kawashima, as well as the “Pocky Guitar” designed with the Pocky package that was used in the commercial and the promotional video, also became a hot topic.

The song features a rock-based melody characteristic of Saito, and the lyrics, sprinkled with slightly nonsensical phrases, are great fun.

It’s an overwhelming showcase of Saito’s talent—who would have thought you could create such a cool rock track with a single Pocky stick as the theme!
