I’ve worked in a variety of roles—regardless of pro or amateur settings—including live event PA, cameraman for video and photography, restaurant staff, and logistics center staff. I now spend my days as a part-time writer. I’ve contributed to music and manga websites with feature/review articles, and wrote the liner notes included as a bonus for 1st PLACE Inc.’s “IA SUPER BEST.” As for my music background, I started playing guitar in junior high and focused on band activities during my school years. For over 15 years since then, up to the present, I’ve continued releasing original tracks as a Vocaloid producer. My areas of expertise are Japanese rock, Vocaloid, and manga.

Autumn is full of pleasures—appetite, sports, the arts, and travel.

Commercials also plan and promote new products and services in line with these seasonal changes.

In this article, we’ll introduce a range of songs featured in autumn commercials.

We’ve picked not only songs with an autumn vibe, but also any tracks that were used in fall ads, even if they aren’t explicitly about autumn.

From pieces that evoke the season’s beautiful scenery to many other tunes, we’ve gathered a wide variety.

You might just find your favorite CM song or that track you’ve been curious about and searching for.

The idol group Keyakizaka46.

The performance that drew attention with them wearing suits was “Kaze ni Fukaretemo.” It’s also known for being featured in STRIPE International’s “MECHAKARI ‘Kaze ni Fukaretemo’” commercial.

Since the members appeared in suits in the ad as well, many of you probably remember it vividly.

The lyrics compare the changing of the seasons to the evolving relationship between a man and a woman.

As the title suggests, one way to enjoy it is to listen while feeling the autumn breeze.

Have you seen SoftBank’s “Shirato Family Mystery Train” commercial? Despite its mystery-movie style storyline, it ends with a twist where Jun Shison sings.

And the song he performs is Kenshi Yonezu’s “Lemon.” The track is a ballad that likens oneself and a precious person who have been separated to a sliced lemon.

You’ll surely be drawn into its beautiful yet sorrowful world.

You can also enjoy comparing how it sounds in the song versus in the commercial.

Ezaki Glico “Pocky”

We might never meet again.Kikuchi Momoko

We might never meet again.

We might never meet again.Kikuchi Momoko

The scene where Momoko Kikuchi sees off someone dear to her at a train station is depicted with striking emotion, conveying the loneliness and heartache of parting.

Her 1985 release “Mou Aenai Kamo Shirenai” (We Might Never Meet Again) expresses straightforward feelings for a loved one.

The emotions of the moment when someone precious leaves your side, paired with the slightly wistful melody, perfectly match the visuals.

Her clear, transparent vocals and the final shot of her eating Pocky leave a lasting impression, making it a CM song filled with nostalgic charm.
