You also see their commercials on TV quite often, don’t you?

[Covers and Parodies Are Appealing Too] Kirin Commercial Songs [2026] (171–180)
My Past Life, Many Lifetimes AgoRADWIMPS
This commercial, featuring Ayami Nakajo dressed in attire reminiscent of early modern European nobility, is for Kirin’s Gogo no Koucha (Afternoon Tea).
It portrays her reflecting on the connections between people that have been woven together with tea since the birth of afternoon tea culture, depicting what the CM’s title calls “What Tea Has Connected.” The background music is an orchestral arrangement of RADWIMPS’ “Zenzenzense,” which beautifully expresses one of the commercial’s themes: transcending time.
Starlight ParadeSEKAI NO OWARI
In the “Stars” installment of GREEN JUKEBOX, a popular commercial series for Tanrei Green Label, SEKAI NO OWARI’s Fukase appears.
He performs an acoustic, self-accompanied rendition of his hit song Starlight Parade on bass.
With a gentle sound and vocals that are utterly captivating—just as Mikako Tabe seems enchanted—it has a charm that makes you swoon.
Let’s go see (someone).UA
This commercial, supported by KIRIN and JR Central, portrays a summer where, for the first time in four years, people can go see those they’ve been longing to meet.
It strikingly depicts the excitement building just before heading home and the lively reunions with friends at their destinations, powerfully conveying the joy of everyday life returning to normal.
A key point is the use of “Little Brown Jug” and “Let’s Go See,” tracks featured in each company’s commercials.
The buoyant feel of “Little Brown Jug,” which conveys a skipping heart, and the refreshing sound of “Let’s Go See,” which evokes expansive scenery, harmonize in a memorable way.
Utopiaimase
This is a commercial for Hanayoi, a sparkling fruit liqueur released by Kirin Beer.
Featuring Jun Shison, Mizuki Yamamoto, and others, the ad strikingly captures the cast having a wonderful time with Hanayoi in hand.
In line with the product name, the stylish CM is titled “Good Faces, Bloom.” The background music is Utopia, released in 2023 by singer-songwriter imase.
Also used as the theme song for the film SAND LAND, the track is a pleasant blend of imase’s high-tone vocals and a lively melody.
Nagi’s Long Vacation Main ThemePasukaruzu
This is a commercial for Hyoketsu’s new initiative focusing on delicious fruit that ends up being deemed non-standard, featuring the first installment highlighting Hama-nashi, a specialty of Yokohama.
It clearly conveys, through scenes of interacting with local farmers, that the taste remains unchanged even if the fruit doesn’t meet standards.
The lightness of “Nagi no Oitoma Main Theme” also seems to further emphasize the warmth of these interactions.
