In each spot, the cast members speak passionately on their respective themes, as if answering interview questions.

Smirnoff Ice “Full-On Personality” Version

Nice commercial: Kirin Smirnoff Ice, Taishi Fushigami, ♪ B’z — “Full of Authenticity” version, 15s + 30s

It’s a song included on B’z’s 19th original album, released in 2015.

It was used in a commercial for Kirin’s “Smirnoff Ice” and was written specifically for the ad.

Takahiro Matsumoto, who composed the music, said it was easy to create because the tie-in requested a specific style—“a beat like this,” and so on.

Conversely, Koshi Inaba, who wrote the lyrics, said it was difficult because there were no requests regarding the words.

The song that Motoki Omori sings with a guitar in hand in the CM is “Ao to Natsu,” one of Mrs.

Unlike the high-energy feel of the original, the acoustic version—highlighted by the gentle sound of the guitar and Omori’s clear, pure vocals—is soothing to listen to.

New beer — the name is a secret — Mr. Uchimura — 15 seconds

Teruyoshi Uchimura of the comedy duo Ucchan Nanchan is drinking KIRIN’s new beer.

It looks like the new name is written in the background, but Mio Imada, who serves as the narrator, stops him from saying it.

Their exchange—Uchimura insisting, “Just one character…” and Imada firmly replying, “No”—is quite charming.

The commercial features a bossa nova-style arrangement of THE BOOM’s 1995 hit ‘Kaze ni Naritai’ (I Want to Be the Wind).
