[Must-See!] Popular songs from Amazon commercials: A history of CM tracks

Decisive BattleSagisu Shirō

Shiro Sagisu – Decisive Battle

In Amazon Prime Video commercials, the theme songs of the shows or films featured in the ad are often used.

In this commercial announcing the start of streaming for Evangelion: 3.0+1.0 Thrice Upon a Time, the BGM “Decisive Battle,” which plays before the fights between Evangelions and Angels, is used.

Hearing this track really makes your body tense up like, “An intense battle is about to start!” Incidentally, a BGM based on this piece is often used in Bayside Shakedown (Odoru Daisousasen) and in variety shows as well—many people will probably recognize that timpani rhythm in particular.
