Ajinomoto commercial songs: Popular CM songs (61–70)
Jupiter from The Planets SuiteHorusuto shiki
It was used in the corporate commercial “Meals for You Who Work Hard – GLOBAL Edition.” I hear it was structured by assigning one piece to each of seven celestial bodies from the solar system.
It’s a very majestic composition.
In particular, the familiar melody that appears partway through enchants me no matter how many times I hear it.
The Promised PlaceMakihara Noriyuki
This is the commercial song for “Knorr.” It’s a piece Mr.
Makihara provided to CHEMISTRY, and he also took part in the chorus.
They asked for something with the feel of a traditional song, and that’s how this track was created.
Throughout, it consistently conveys the message of not giving up on your dreams.
It’s a song of hope.
Love RadiantMisora Hibari
It’s a commercial for Ajinomoto.
The piece is by Kei Ogura, and I hear the theme of the commercial at that time was “family love.” They chose Hibari-san because they wanted a sense of warmth and embrace.
Indeed, Hibari-san is perfectly suited to the long-established Ajinomoto, and her resonant yet earnest, persuasive singing is truly unparalleled.
Original song
This is a commercial for Seto no Honjio, a 100% domestically sourced salt released by Ajinomoto.
The ad is done in an animated style and uses a song to promote how perfect Seto no Honjio is for making umeboshi (pickled plums).
The music playing in the commercial is an original piece written specifically for this ad.
Its enka-like melody really lifts your spirits when you listen to it!
What a nice bath.Duke Aces
It was used as a parody song for “Knorr Cup Soup.” Apparently, it was originally a song by the Duke Aces, but at some point it became established as a Drifters song.
Either way, it feels like the kind of tune that would naturally come to you as a hum while you’re relaxing in a hot spring.
