We’ll cover not only arrangement versions of trending hit songs, but also tracks sung by popular actors, so be sure to check them out.

[Yaris Series] TV Commercial “DANCE WITH YARIS” Takkyu Ishino ver.

In Toyota’s Yaris series commercial “DANCE WITH YARIS,” four artists each sing Godiego’s 1978 release “Monkey Magic” in their own arrangements.

It features an irresistibly upbeat melody that’s perfect not only as driving BGM but also for dancing, just like in the commercial.

This is a commercial for the Yaris series, which consists of three models: the Yaris, Yaris Cross, and GR Yaris.

The striking imagery shows cars zipping around as if they’re dancing, set to cool street-dance visuals.

There’s a series of these commercials that use the same footage with different music, and this particular version features a track by PUNPEE.

Like the other ads, it’s a cover of Godiego’s “Monkey Magic,” but here it’s arranged with a lively, hip-hop vibe.

Introducing a car packed with lots of “good,” the Toyota Aqua “AQUA Birth” edition.

You can enjoy how the stylish visuals and clever framing develop into a collage-like piece.

The BGM features SUPERCAR’s “Strobolights,” with a cover version by YUI used in the commercial.

It’s such a faithful cover that you might mistake it for Miki Furukawa singing, with the original’s blippy, chiptune-like feel toned down to bring out a breezier vibe.

The Aqua often evokes a sense of clarity, and that atmosphere pairs perfectly with YUI’s vocals—making it a standout cover.

Be sure to listen to both the original and the cover to appreciate what each brings!

[Netz Toyota Sapporo] RAV4 TV Commercial “Anthem” Version – 30 Seconds

Have you ever heard this commercial song that’s so laid-back yet strangely captivating? The track playing in Toyota’s RAV4 “Anthem” commercial is sung by YO-KING from Magokoro Brothers, and it was written specifically for this ad.

For now, there’s no full version and it hasn’t been released.

The relaxed, outdoorsy vibe pairs perfectly with YO-KING’s easygoing vocals, doesn’t it? It’s a CM song I truly hope to hear in full someday—and see included on an album.
