on a bright nightback number
A commercial for the happoshu (low-malt beer) Tanrei Green Label featuring actress Mikako Tabe.
The refreshing feel of this series, themed around the color green, is truly pleasant to watch, isn’t it? This installment, titled “Big Glass,” has a whimsical touch with a gigantic glass that easily towers over Mikako Tabe’s height.
Her bright smile and lively performance, combined with back number’s song “Akarui Yoru ni,” create an incredibly comfortable and uplifting piece of video.
Wild ThingX
This is a commercial for Asahi’s Nama-Jokki Can, which could be said to have revolutionized the canned beer industry.
Watching Junichi Okada and Toma Ikuta drink while talking about how delicious it is is sure to excite any beer lover.
The background music features “Wild Thing” by the American band X.
The song originally belongs to The Wild Ones, but X’s cover became famous as the theme song for the film Major League.
The grand rock sound pairs perfectly with the refreshing feel of the beer.
I Wanna Be Loved by YouJQ from Nulbarich
The sprightly opening of “I Wanna Be Loved by You” leaves a strong impression.
First sung in 1928 by American singer and actress Helen Kane, the song later became widely known through Marilyn Monroe’s performance in the film Some Like It Hot.
It’s featured in the commercial for Suntory The Premium Malt’s Kaoru Ale, with JQ from Nulbarich handling vocals this time.
The richness of the orchestral arrangement is a perfect match.
Its sultry, alluring vibe makes it ideal for nights when you want to spend a special time.
Like the flow of a riverKiyosaku
In the Suntory Draft Beer commercial titled “The Chaser,” Kento Yamazaki runs after a bus he’s missed, while Mone Kamishiraishi chases after him to hand over something he forgot.
The spot has a gently heartwarming feel, nicely complemented by Kiyosaku’s rendition of ‘Like the Flow of the River’ used as the BGM.
In Kiyosaku’s cover, the addition of a horn section and the emphasis on the off-beats create a relaxed ska arrangement that makes for a very pleasant listen.

Ms. Hanako on a high pedestalback number
The GREEN JUKEBOX series is a popular set of commercials for Tanrei Green Label.
Each installment features a lovely acoustic arrangement of a classic song, so I imagine many of you are fans.
In this “Summer” edition, back number’s signature track Takane no Hanako-san is used, with Iyori Shimizu performing a solo acoustic rendition by the seaside.
The crisp acoustic arrangement pairs beautifully with the refreshing setting.
Released in 2013, the song is known for its lyrics about unrequited love.
The male character in the lyrics is self-deprecating and somewhat timid, but many listeners may find his demeanor relatable.
Kill This LoveBLACKPINK
This commercial highlights the crisp taste of Asahi Super Dry, using stylish visuals to evoke the flavor.
By deliberately not showing the product and instead featuring the members of BLACKPINK spraying mist, the composition conveys an even stronger sense of power.
The song that further emphasizes the stylish atmosphere portrayed in the visuals is BLACKPINK’s “Kill This Love.” With its tense, hard-hitting beat, the track powerfully expresses a driving, forward-looking strength.
Before I Gocoldrain
coldrain is a five-piece rock band acclaimed in Japan and abroad for their aggressive sound that incorporates punk, hardcore, metal, and emo.
Their track “Before I Go,” featured in the Sapporo Beer coldrain × GOLD STAR special collaboration video, is included on their seventh album, “Nonnegative.” You can feel how the heavy ensemble and driving beat perfectly align with the refreshing sensation of beer.
It’s a track where the fireworks and beer foam in the commercial mirror each other—be sure to pay attention to the fiery performance scenes.
