In the Canary IslandsEiichi Ohtaki
The song used in the Subaru WRX S4 commercial is Eiichi Ohtaki’s “On the Canary Islands.” It was included as the B-side to the widely used “Kimi wa Tennenshoku” and also appears on the album A LONG VACATION.
Its refreshingly nostalgic melody seems to gently envelop the time you spend driving a Subaru.
It’s also recommended as a driving song for pleasant seasons like spring and summer.
The buoyant melody never fades, no matter how many years have passed since its release.
Original songMasakatsu Takagi
The Subaru LEGACY OUTBACK commercial “A New Breeze,” set against vast natural landscapes, features an original song.
The composer is Masakatsu Takagi, known for his work on numerous scores including the NHK morning drama “Okaeri Mone” and the animated film “Wolf Children.” The melody, which carries a light and gentle breeze reminiscent of those two works, feels wonderfully pleasant.
Listening to this track on a drive seems like it could blow away your everyday fatigue! It’s a piece that perfectly matches the commercial’s title, “A New Breeze,” truly ushering in a fresh wind and making you feel as if you could leap into a beautiful new world.
Danger ZoneKenny Loggins
The Trezia commercial featuring Tetsuji Tamayama uses Kenny Loggins’s “Danger Zone.” The song is also famous for being the theme of the blockbuster film Top Gun, starring Tom Cruise.
From fighter jets in Top Gun to cars in this commercial, the track pairs perfectly with vehicles.
Its catchy, cool melody is sure to spark the desire to drive in any motor enthusiast.
Just be careful not to speed, and enjoy a cool, grown-up drive with this song as your companion!
TogetherMONKEY MAJIK
This commercial depicts everyday scenes with Subaru cars, highlighting their comfortable ride and sense of security.
It uses gentle, warm visuals to express the joy of driving and the idea that Subaru is perfect for people who enjoy their daily lives.
The song that further emphasizes the calm atmosphere of the footage is MONKEY MAJIK’s “Together.” The piano and acoustic guitar tones are striking, and combined with the conversational style of the vocals, they convey a sense of warmth.
Overall, it’s a track that evokes kindness and human connection.
ecstasyUA
This is an R2 commercial that aired in 2004.
In the first half, we see UA looking out from a balcony; in the second half, she stands with a red R2 against a backdrop of trees in a park.
It’s a simple spot with only UA’s monologue—“I can go anywhere, that’s why I’m here”—and a narration introducing the R2, yet it leaves a strangely memorable impact.
The BGM is her song “Bōga” performed a cappella.
It’s a track with a unique atmosphere that transcends genres, so I recommend listening to the full song.

MY HEART DRAWS A DREAML’Arc〜en〜Ciel
Released in 2007, it is L’Arc〜en〜Ciel’s 31st single and was used as the theme song for a Legacy commercial featuring soccer player Kazuyoshi Miura.
It’s a beautiful, medium-tempo track that showcases Hyde’s clear, soaring vocals.
Sons and Daughters ~ More than that, what I want to say isCHAGE and ASKA
This is a 1994 commercial for Subaru’s kei car, the VIVIO.
The purple body color—something you’d hardly believe was a factory option and unimaginable today—is super cute and catchy, isn’t it? The VIVIO has a sporty image and enjoys lasting popularity among car enthusiasts, but this ad highlights its compact size, nimble handling, and generous cargo capacity.
For the background music, they again used a song by CHAGE and ASKA, as in past VIVIO commercials.
It’s a track carrying a message to children, with a near–a cappella arrangement that’s both beautiful and powerful.
