Demae IcchoOhtaki Eiichi
The instant ramen song “Demae Icchō,” familiar from the commercial with the catchphrase “Ah~rayo, Demae Icchō~.” The phrase above was composed by Taro Kida, but the rest was composed by Eiichi Ohtaki.
It’s included on the album “NIAGARA CM SPECIAL.” Its buoyant bounce and smoothness make you want to skip along, and even though it’s very short, it’s packed with Eiichi Ohtaki’s signature style—utterly irresistible! Also worth noting are the anecdotes with Akio Omori, said to be the pioneer of “commercial songs,” or “komason.” Makes you crave a bowl of Demae Icchō…! (laughs)
