[au Commercial] Songs Featured in the Ads. Historical CM Songs [2026] (71–80)
Varsouvinne By Threeamerika min’yō
In addition to the familiar trio of the Santaro characters, Masaki Suda and Fuku Suzuki appear in the commercial “Global First Love.” This CM features the American folk song “Varsovienne by Three.” The first part of the title, “Varsovienne,” is a dance that originated in Poland and later spread to the United States, where it became widely known.
The latter part, “by Three,” indicates that the partner changes three times during the dance.
Its graceful melody is perfect for dancing!
Kol DodiIsuraeru min’yō
In the commercial “Oni-chan no Oyagokoro” featuring the Santaro trio along with Masaki Suda and Fuku Suzuki, the Israeli folk song Kol Dodi is used.
This song sets to music verse 8 of chapter 2 from the Song of Songs in the Hebrew Bible, which speaks of hearing the voice of one’s beloved and their coming.
Its poignant melody evokes the nation and culture of Israel, making listeners feel as if they’ve stepped into the country just by hearing it.
In the commercial, the original song is used with a slightly pop-style arrangement.
Ländler in FDoitsu min’yō
In the commercial “Matching Outfits,” featuring the three Santaro characters and Rina Kawaei, the German folk piece “Ländler in F” is used.
This song is a dance tune for couples.
Its buoyant, cheerful melody evokes a sweet, tingly feeling, as if you’re spending a fun moment with a lover.
Just like the CM’s storyline, it’s a perfect track to hype up a lovey-dovey couple.
Instead of J-pop and the like, it might be nice to go on a date with a song like this as your BGM from time to time!
Original songTakagi Masakatsu
The commercial “Let’s Talk Family,” featuring Shota Matsuda, Gaku Hamada, Kento Kiritani, and Nanao, uses an original CM track composed by Masakatsu Takagi, a musician and visual artist known for numerous commercials, TV dramas, and film scores.
The gentle melody unfolds as if depicting warm moments spent with family, and listening to it makes you feel like talking with your loved ones.
If it’s playing as background music during family time, you might even find it easier to honestly express the gratitude you don’t usually put into words!

When you’re browsing on a smartphone, someone might be watching… This commercial introduces a security feature that prevents just that.
At the start of the ad, flying surveillance cameras flock to people browsing on smartphones that aren’t iPhones and peek at their screens.
But when browsing with Safari on an iPhone, the surveillance cameras are destroyed, conveying its strong security capabilities.
The intuitive presentation draws you into the ad’s world as you watch!
Roll The CreditsDanielle Ponder
This is an Apple commercial introducing the iPhone 16 Pro’s ability to shoot 4K slow-motion footage at 120 fps.
I imagine many viewers were captivated by the beautiful visuals that even evoke a mysterious atmosphere.
The background music is “Roll the Credits,” performed by American singer Danielle Ponder.
Released in 2023, the track features a slow beat and a powerful vocal performance—impactful and very compelling to listen to.
Reefa (feat. AD.AM, i.t, IzzyOT & M1llz)Ekayz
A commercial introducing the translation feature built into chats on the Galaxy S24 Ultra.
When a Korean person shows a chat on the Galaxy S24 Ultra to an American man, it demonstrates how simply tapping “Tap to translate” instantly translates the conversation.
It’s a handy feature that removes language barriers.
The first half features the beautiful vocals of “Vissi d’arte, vissi d’amore,” and the second half uses “Reefa (feat.
AD.AM, i.t, IzzyOT & M1llz)” by Manchester rapper Ekayz.
It’s a stylish track with a strikingly cool beat.
