Commercial songs from Western music that were hits in the 2000s. Popular commercial songs (31–40)
XanaduOlivia Newton-John & ELO
This is the song that played in SoftBank’s White Plan commercial featuring Cameron Diaz.
It was a collaboration between British singer Olivia Newton-John and ELO (Electric Light Orchestra), released in 1980.
AmarantineEnya
This commercial focuses on the fact that VIERA is an IPS LCD TV, conveying—through narration by Koyuki—how its picture looks different from before.
It especially emphasizes the view from an angle, highlighting that images which used to feel off now appear beautiful.
Enhancing this sense of a grand, near-futuristic atmosphere is Enya’s “Amarantine.” The gentle rhythm marked by strings and the crystalline vocals are striking, and even as the piece unfolds softly, it conveys a moving sense of emotion.
RunningSarah Brightman
This commercial highlights that VIERA was selected as the official high-definition television for the Beijing Olympics, conveying the passion for continuous evolution behind that choice.
Just as Olympic athletes strive for greater heights, VIERA also pursued the ideal television, powerfully asserting this by interweaving the message with footage of athletic events.
Further amplifying the grandeur of the visuals is Sarah Brightman’s song “Running.” Her powerfully resonant voice is a major draw, and its beauty evokes a sense of hope for the future.
Mr. Tambourine ManThe Byrds
It’s the song that was used in the 2003 commercial for Toyota’s minivan, the Estima.
It’s performed by the British band The Byrds, and the recording is from 1965.
The song was originally written and composed by Bob Dylan, and both versions have become signature pieces for their respective artists.
LylaOasis
Oasis is the quintessential British rock band that was active from the 1990s through the 2000s, though they unfortunately disbanded in 2009.
Their 2005 single “Lyla” debuted at number one on the UK chart.
The song was used in a Sony commercial.
