Lovely commercial jingle

Commercial song by House Foods. A popular jingle.

House Foods has created many indispensable products for family dining tables, such as Vermont Curry, Java Curry, and Hokkaido Stew.

If you watch TV, you probably see commercials for House Foods products quite often.

In this article, we’ll introduce, all at once, not only the classic curry and stew, but also the songs used in commercials for House Foods products! Sometimes the performers themselves sing original songs made specifically for the commercials, making the tunes very easy to relate to.

Tie-in songs by popular artists are also appealing, so be sure to give them a listen.

Javanese Curry

Goodbye, Regretkururi

The song “Sayonara Regret,” which was featured in a Java Curry commercial, is Quruli’s 20th single, released in 2008.

Asako Toki, with her fresh and translucent voice, participates on chorus.

It’s a comfortable track that feels fluffy and dreamlike, giving you a curious sense of being in a dream.

This song was also used as the theme for TV Setouchi’s program “Grandma’s Kitchen.” It’s a work by singer-songwriter Kenta Ebara and is included on his 2018 album “LOVE.” Just as the title suggests, the lyrics—about spending time with one’s grandmother in the kitchen—are truly wonderful.

The gentle, easygoing rhythm is soothing, too.

Kukure Curry

Subtly flashy (bling-bling, but nonchalant)Kondō Masahiko

When you think of Masahiko Kondo, I bet many of you immediately remember this song.

On impression shows, too, this is the one people tend to sing when they imitate him.

Although it was released in 1981, it’s a song you still hear often—covered by other artists, in commercials, and as TV background music.

If you try to seriously grasp the title or lyrics, you might find yourself thinking, “Wait, what does that mean?” But it’s a number that always gets the crowd going at karaoke and pumps up the mood without overthinking it (lol).
