What Do You Mean?Justin Bieber
In the SoftBank commercial featuring popular Canadian musician Justin Bieber, his song “What Do You Mean?” is used.
Released both as an album track and as a single, the song gained popularity thanks to the commercial’s impact and its catchy lyrics.
It expresses a man’s true feelings toward a woman whose opinions change constantly and whose words don’t always match her true intentions—asking, “What do you mean?” and “What am I supposed to do?” It’s a song that many men can relate to on a deep level!
Main Theme of the Film 'Mélodie en sous-sol' (Any Number Can Win)Michel Magne
This piece is famous as the main theme of the 1963 French film “Any Number Can Win” (a.
k.
a.
“Mélodie en sous-sol”).
If you’re of a certain generation, you might also know it from the Honda Prelude.
SoftBank used it in their “SPY Infiltration” commercial featuring Hidetoshi Nishijima, Taiga Nakano, and others.
Disguised as delivery workers, they sneak in to uncover the secret behind the Shirato family’s happiness (with Aya Ueto and co.
), but it’s totally obvious and hilariously comedic.
The melody builds as if the real action is just about to begin, perfectly matching the fun vibe of the commercial.
RawhideFrankie Laine
Rawhide, with its exuberant vocals and addictive refrain, is a song by American singer Frankie Laine that served as the theme for the TV Western Rawhide, which ran for 11 years from 1955 to 1966.
A parody version was used in the Xiaomi 12T Pro commercial “Kami Juuden Tōjō” featuring Ryo Yoshizawa and Hana Sugisaki, giving it a distinctly surreal vibe.
It might resonate with that feeling of wanting your phone to finish charging as soon as possible.
Just like the original, its powerful energy and rhythm are so fun that you’ll find yourself wanting to sing along.
