It’s the 1980 hit by the American soul, funk, and R&B band Kool & the Gang, a disco song well-known in Japan.
We Will Rock YouMacy Gray
This memorable commercial, featuring a car racing through while dodging falling icicles, is for the Stagea and aired in 2003.
It makes a strong impression by showcasing its stylish exterior while evoking powerful performance.

Her arrangement, infused with R&B and soul, is a must-hear.
SatisfactionThe Rolling Stones
It’s the song that was used in Toyota’s Voxy commercial.
Voxy ads have long been crafted to evoke the image of a rugged, masculine father, and the songs featured in those commercials are invariably rock numbers with heavy distortion.
This particular song was used for the early Voxy, and the person appearing in the ad was Tortoise Matsumoto from Ulfuls.

The German music group famous for the song “Everything’s Gonna Be Alright,” which samples “Air on the G String,” is Sweetbox.
Their 2006 release “Addicted” was a big hit and was used in a Subaru Legacy commercial.
Saturday in the ParkCHICAGO
This is the song that was used in the commercial for Toyota’s sedan “Brevis” in 2001.
It’s a 1972 song by the American band Chicago, and I think it’s a very well-known track that everyone in Japan has probably heard at least once on TV or radio.
BreakoutSwing Out Sister
It’s the song that played in the 2007 SoftBank commercial featuring Cameron Diaz, originally released in 1986 by the British pop duo Swing Out Sister.
The ad was memorable for Cameron Diaz dancing in a white dress with a cell phone in her hand.

“Time of the Season” is a 1969 hit by the British band The Zombies, and in Japan it’s known through covers such as one by Ippu-Do.
