Playing in the background is Official HIGE DANDism’s “B-Side Blues,” whose laid-back sound and vocals strongly emphasize a relaxed summer vibe.
VolareGipsy Kings
This song was released in 1989.
It became well-known as the track used in Kirin Brewery’s happoshu “Kirin Tanrei” commercials, and Keisuke Honda also appeared in one in 2014.

To Feel The FireStevie Wonder
The FIRE Double Mountain commercial that aired in 2014 used Stevie Wonder’s classic song “To Feel the Fire” as its CM song.
The Japanese rock band ONE OK ROCK has also covered this track, and when the commercial first aired, fans buzzed with comments like, “Someone who doesn’t know One OK Rock’s song is singing it!” However, the original is actually by Stevie Wonder.
Daydream believerThe Monkees
The Kirin Zero commercial used the song “Daydream Believer.” The version sung by The Timers, the rock band led by Kiyoshiro Imawano, is well known, so people often assume it’s their song, but in fact the original was by The Monkees, an American rock band.
The melody is characterized by a relaxed, gentle feel.
Kiyoshiro Imawano’s vocals have a warm, wonderful quality, and The Monkees’ vocalist Davy Jones also has a charming, tender voice.
