Kao Biore commercial songs: from popular tie-in tracks to original compositions (1–10)
Colonel BogeyKenneth Joseph Alford
Just hearing that Colonel Bogey is used in a Bioré commercial doesn’t really give you a clear picture of what it’s like, does it? In this Kao Bioré Marshmallow Whip ad featuring actress Haru, they use a very softly arranged version of Colonel Bogey.
By significantly lowering the BPM of that melody and having children sing it, they’ve created a very fluffy feel.
It’s a slightly unusual combination, but it ends up perfectly matching the product’s image.
suis from Yorushika
This is NIVEA’s brand song performed by suis, who is also active as the vocalist of Yorushika.
The gentle sound highlights her voice, and the softly resonant strings convey a sense of warmth.
Because the warm message is sung with a clear, transparent voice, it feels as if kindness seeps into your heart.
The commercial features Minami Tanaka using NIVEA’s Skin-Polishing Gel Cleanse, and her gentle smile effectively conveys both the pleasant feel and the high efficacy of the product.
Seven months until graduationYagi Saori
A song by Saori Yagi, who was active in the ’80s as a gravure idol and singer.
The glittering sound and bouncy rhythm feel so refreshing.
It portrays the bittersweet feelings right before graduation, carrying a certain fleeting mood that makes your heart flutter as you listen.
The sweet-and-sour flavor of youth makes me swoon, and I felt it overlaps with Biore’s fresh image.
I wish I could have experienced it in real time, and perhaps it resonates even more now that time has passed.
Voices of Insects
As an autumn children’s song long beloved in Japan, “Mushi no Koe” (“Voices of Insects”) is a famous tune that you’ll likely recognize as soon as you hear its melody.
This commercial boldly turns “Mushi no Koe” into a parody song.
It features the familiar Biore CM family and offers a heartwarming scene of moisturizing dry, winter-worn knees.
The choral arrangement is memorable too, and if you let your guard down, you might find yourself singing along with these new lyrics instead.
Original songManako Arata
This is a commercial introducing Biore The Body Totonoi Hada, which adds radiance while addressing concerns like skin dryness and stickiness.
With not only Ryoko Shinohara and Kanna Hashimoto but also Kei Tanaka appearing, it conveys that the product is suitable for all genders.
It also seems to emphasize reliability by appealing to its broad ability to address varying degrees of skin concerns from person to person.
The refreshing CM song used as the BGM is sung by singer-songwriter Arata Manako.
Gimme gimmeBENI
Kao’s body wash, Biore BODY DELI, is appealing not only for its skin hydration but also for its focus on fragrance.
What further accentuates BODY DELI’s confident vibe is BENI’s song “Gimme Gimme.” The sound has a gentle atmosphere that even conveys a touch of wistfulness, yet the powerful vocals layered over it evoke a resolve to move forward.
It gives the impression of calling on us to cherish our memories while also having the courage to take the next step.
The Beginning SongSOTTE BOSSE
This commercial introduces how Biore’s facial cleanser addresses specific skincare concerns and what effects it delivers.
It contains serum ingredients, and you can sense the joy—reflected in the bright expressions—of being able to prevent dryness while cleansing.
The song that further emphasizes the refreshing atmosphere of the visuals is Sotte Bosse’s “Hajimari no Uta.” The combination of the powerful, resonant beat and the soaring vocals is striking, evoking an image of moving forward with a positive outlook.
