Run, Kotaro!Awaya Sanji
The original song “Hashire Kotaro” is a track by Salty Sugar released in 1970.
It was created as a horse racing song by drawing a parallel between member Kotaro Yamamoto and the racehorse “Kotaro.” This tune, adapted with new lyrics as the CM song for BOSS’s “BOSS Keiba” campaign—’A Sure Bet Break, A Triple Crown Cup’—carries the feel of a cheer song for people working hard.
It’s a passionate anthem that overlays racehorses running toward the finish line with people diligently pursuing their daily work, encouraging them to aim for their own goals at their own pace, taking breaks when needed, and keeping up the effort.
