hanaKobukuro
Kobukuro’s “hana,” released digitally in 2015, was used as the theme song for Ghana Milk Chocolate’s commercial.
The music video features Tao Tsuchiya, Airi Matsui, and Suzu Hirose, who also appeared in the ad.
The song reflects the idea that who you are today is thanks to someone dear being by your side and supporting you gently.
Whether that person is a crush, a partner, a friend, or family, we’ve all had moments where we feel we can stand where we are now because of them.
It’s a song that reminds you of the importance of those special people in your life.
Future TaxiOtsuka Ai
The song used in the Ghana Milk Chocolate commercial was Ai Otsuka’s “Mirai Taxi.” It’s included on her 2007 album LOVE PiECE.
The melody, which fully showcases Ai Otsuka’s pop side, is catchy and super cute! The lyrics depict riding a mysterious vehicle to go see the person you want to meet, just as you wish.
After hearing the repeatedly sung chorus, you might feel like flying off right now to see someone you’re yearning to meet!
kit paletteOtsuka Ai
KitKat, the strong ally of exam-takers, now comes as “KitKat Everyday Nuts & Cranberry,” with nuts and cranberries mixed in.
The song featured in this commercial is Ai Otsuka’s “kit palette.” It was created with the hope of bringing smiles to women who laugh and cry as they devote themselves every day to work, study, and love.
Not only the fun times but even the tough ones are special days in your life.
With that in mind, this is a song that shares the strength to say, “Okay, let’s do this!” and keep going.
save your dreamKahara Tomomi
Tomomi Kahala’s “save your dream,” released in 1996, is her fifth single.
Its fresh, comfortable up-tempo sound paired with Kahala’s soaring high tones is truly one of a kind.
Despite the song’s difficulty, her high notes are beautifully delivered—her vocal prowess is breathtaking.
Not only the singing but also her fashion and makeup at the time likely inspired many women.
Written and composed by Tetsuya Komuro, this song perfectly matches Sasa’s sense of innovation.
Run&GoJO1
The song featured in the KitKat “Tell Us Who You Stan!” commercial is “Run & Go” by the global male idol group JO1.
It’s included as a B-side track on their single “WANDERING,” released in 2021.
The lyrics express the desire to go anywhere together with someone wonderful who’s doing what they love and what brings them joy.
Carried by a refreshing melody, the message makes you feel as if your current efforts are being cheered on.
umbrellaKing Gnu
The song used in the Alfort commercial featuring Kentaro Sakaguchi is King Gnu’s “Kasa” (“Umbrella”).
Its cool, tricky melody perfectly matches Alfort’s image as a chocolate for adults and really leaves an impression.
The lyrics describe a heart after a breakup, where emotions are all mixed together as if a torrential downpour is raging inside.
Although the lyrics are heartbreaking, they don’t leave you with just sadness—perhaps thanks to the evocative words crafted by King Gnu’s vocalist and lyricist, Daiki Tsuneta.
The music video, animated to look almost like a still image at first glance, gradually changes as the song progresses.
It’s a track whose MV is also well worth paying attention to.
By your sideaiko
It’s a message song that blends poignancy and warmth, addressed to someone dear who’s far away.
It’s a track by aiko, a singer-songwriter from Osaka Prefecture, released in 2014 as her 31st single.
It was also used in a commercial for Lotte’s Ghana Milk Chocolate.
While it can be heard as a love song, aiko herself says she created it with the audience who comes to her live shows in mind.
In any case, it’s a truly wonderful work that fills you with a gentle feeling as you listen.
