This is the song that was used in the Zexy commercial broadcast in 2006.

Apparently, only the chorus that aired in the commercial had originally been created, but due to many requests after the ad aired, the rest of the song was composed and it was released on CD the following year, in 2007.

It begins with gentle arpeggios on acoustic guitar, and Saito’s unadorned vocals paired with an easy-listening melody line are striking—it’s the kind of track you want to listen to over and over again.
