Whose song is it? ANA’s popular commercial music. All-time CM songs [2026] (31–40)
Flying Wanderer -Human-Yamashita Tatsuro
This is a song included on Tatsuro Yamashita’s 1991 album “ARTISAN.” It was used in the commercial for ANA’s “Hiyūjin.” Due to the circumstances of the album’s production, it was apparently created to serve as a kind of cushion between Side A and Side B.
Performed as a stripped-down vocal-and-guitar piece, its gentle melody is truly mesmerizing.
It feels like the dawn when winter passes and spring arrives, and it also seems to portray human potential—an understated, quintessentially Yamashita track.
My SummerMoritaka Chisato
Chisato Moritaka’s “My Summer” is her 18th single, released in 1993, and it was the ANA Okinawa campaign song that year.
The chorus is poppy, really striking, and sticks in your head, doesn’t it? While the whole track overflows with Moritaka’s energy, it’s actually a breakup song written right after a heartbreak! Only Chisato Moritaka could sing such a potentially somber breakup theme in such a pop style.
Listening to this song really makes you want to go somewhere.
Original songEgil Olsen
This is ANA’s original commercial song created by Egil Olsen, a singer-songwriter based in Norway.
With its refreshing guitar sound and cool Nordic vibe, the track startles you with its mysterious vocals! He reportedly makes extensive use of falsetto, creating a unique sonic world reminiscent of a female voice—an utterly captivating number.
Just listening to it stirs up feelings of excitement and anticipation! If you discovered the song through the commercial and got curious, be sure to check it out.
Beyond The CenturyADIEMUS
In ANA’s 2010 corporate commercial, the song “Beyond The Century” by Adiemus was used.
The commercial promotes the company while looking back on ANA’s history.
Its beautiful, majestic melody is a perfect match for the sight of an airplane serenely flying high above the clouds and leaves a strong impression.
The song was also featured on an NHK program from 1999 to 2000, where it drew considerable attention.
It conveys an exciting sense of anticipation—what awaits at the destination you’re flying to from the vast world of the skies?—that makes you look forward to the journey.
Original songMaika Leboutet
Actress Haruka Ayase appears in ANA’s “FEEL THE NEW SKY” commercial.
The music was produced by Maika Loubté, who has a French father and a Japanese mother.
In 2009, she formed EA, based in Tokyo.
Her pop sensibilities shine through, creating an electro-organic band sound.
This is a must-check as well!

In ANA All Nippon Airways’ commercial “Premium Class: Ground,” an elegant and refined song befitting the premium class is used.
The title of the song is “Strangers In The Night,” performed by the legendary American jazz singer Frank Sinatra.
It’s a famous song that has been covered by artists around the world, and in Japan it’s known by the title “Yoru no Stranger.” Many people may also recognize it as the opening theme of the TV program “Matsuko Kaigi.”
Tales of the Vienna WoodsJohann Strauss II
Online check-in lets you board a plane simply by holding up your smartphone.
The song used in this commercial is “Tales from the Vienna Woods.” It was composed in 1868 by Johann Strauss II, a composer who was active in Vienna, Austria.
The piece is themed around a forest rich in natural beauty, and it unfolds with complex passages reminiscent of a concert performance.
From the beautifully resonant orchestral section featured in the commercial to passages that evoke a clear, open sky, the music paints vivid images.
Why not let yourself be soothed by sounds that feel like you’re immersed in tranquil nature?
