A corporate advertisement from Honda featuring a commercial themed around the vehicles they create.

The background music is “Blue feat.

Maya,” which carries a mystical atmosphere.

The original version sung by Mai Yamane was used as the theme song for the anime Cowboy Bebop, but for this commercial, the vocals are performed by Maya, a high school artist living in the United States.

“Tiny Planet,” a track from their 2020 album CEREMONY, was chosen as the daytime version of the Honda Vezel commercial song.

The commercial has both a day and a night edition, presenting the same scenery at different times of day in a fresh approach; the night edition features a song by Friday Night Plans.

It’s fun to compare the two.

The way the title phrase is sung as if it were part of the rhythm is really cool.

SIRUP is a unit that debuted in 2017, creating fresh music inspired by city pop and Black music.
