Kirin Beer Greens Free: “The Future of a Non‑Alcohol Shower” / “The Future of a Non‑Alcohol Home Lunch”

It’s very striking how the ad shows Kentaro Sakaguchi enjoying a Greens Free after getting out of the bath, and Miho Kanno drinking it deliciously after putting in some hard work! Up to now, scenes like these usually feature beer with alcohol, but this ad emphasizes that with Greens Free, you can be completely satisfied thanks to its authentic flavor even though it’s non-alcoholic.

The background music uses Billy Joel’s classic “Uptown Girl,” a familiar song with a refreshingly catchy melody.

Kimi wa Tennen Shoku, which plays as the theme song for the Suntory Kinmugi commercial featuring Erika Toda, is one of Eiichi Ohtaki’s signature tracks and a beloved city pop classic.

It’s been used in various commercials, but it especially suits Kinmugi’s refreshing image—just listening makes the beer seem even tastier! From the bouncy intro, it puts you in a cheerful, carefree mood.

I’d love to listen to it when I’m tired or enjoying a relaxing moment on a day off, sipping a crisp, satisfying drink.

Billy Joel’s “Piano Man,” released in 1973 and included on several albums, is one of his signature songs.

The fact that “Piano Man” is also known as a nickname for Billy Joel shows just how big a hit the song was.

As the title suggests, the piano takes center stage, and when his soaring vocals layer over it, the result is a moving atmosphere.

In Japan, it was used in a commercial for Kirin’s Spring Valley Silk Ale, where the pairing with the song further emphasizes the emotional impact.

Kirin Beer Tanrei Green Label “Bus Stop” Version

Que sera seraDoris Day

This is a commercial that conveys the refreshing feel of Green Label through a cheerful, lighthearted drama that also carries a sense of gentleness.

After a baseball game, three men are enjoying Green Label when they spot a woman at the bus stop across the street.

Each of them tries to catch her attention using a baseball pitching stance.

Her reaction isn’t what they expected, and their bewilderment adds a comedic touch.

The relaxed mood and comedic vibe are further highlighted by Doris Day’s “Que Sera, Sera.” Because the phrase means “whatever will be, will be,” it pairs with the gentle sound to clearly communicate a calm, laid-back atmosphere.

Kirin Beer Tanrei Green Label “Hige Dance” Version

Theme of the Beardtakashima akihiko & erekutorikku sheebaazu

This commercial features Ken Shimura appearing among men enjoying Green Label, taking the fun to the next level.

Shimura shows up in his “Hige Dance” outfit and calls out, “Ii n da yo,” to which the men reply, “Green da yo,” and everyone dances together as the excitement grows.

Playing in the background to convey the joy of the Hige Dance is ‘Hige no Theme.’ As soon as this song comes on, you can picture the Hige Dance being performed, and its powerful rhythm really highlights the fun.

LA BAMBADIAMANTES

The cheerful tune “La Bamba,” which you’ve likely heard in commercials, is based on a Mexican folk song and has since been covered by many musicians.

The most notable hit was Los Lobos’ 1987 version, and in this commercial the song is covered by DIAMANTES, a band based in Okinawa.

It’s a lively Latin-flavored number that’s sure to lift your spirits.

Try comparing the different versions and pick your favorite to match your mood!

This is a commercial for Kaoru Ale that features live footage of Aqua Timez, who reunited in 2024.

In the CM, they perform their first single after reuniting, “Hitoshizuku,” and many viewers were surely captivated by the unmistakable Aqua Timez vibe and the refreshing, pleasant melody line.

Especially for listeners born in the Heisei era, it may have brought back memories of frequently listening to their songs during their school days.

The ending of the CM also memorably shows the members toasting with Kaoru Ale.
