[Covers and Parodies Are Appealing Too] Kirin’s Commercial Song [2026]

Kirin is a beverage manufacturer that handles a wide variety of drinks, from alcohol to soft drinks.

In beer, there’s Tanrei and Hon-Kirin; in chu-hi, Hyoketsu; and in soft drinks, Afternoon Tea and Kirin Lemon—its lineup is packed with popular products.

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

Kirin’s commercial songs sometimes use existing tracks as tie-ins, of course, but there are also many cases where the featured performers sing parody versions, or popular songs are reinterpreted as acoustic self-covers—unique versions you can only hear in the commercials.

In this article, we’ll introduce a whole selection of Kirin commercial tracks that many viewers have been curious about.

Enjoy!

As you’d expect, this is the song many people think of when they hear back number! It’s their second single, released in 2011, and a true classic.

Shimizu Iyori himself appears alongside Mikako Tabe in the Green Label “GREEN JUKEBOX Yui” TV commercial, whose refreshing vibe feels just right.

It’s a lovely track with female-perspective lyrics over a simple band sound, but in the commercial it’s performed gently on acoustic guitar.

Sharing a casual drink with someone special—this song makes you appreciate those small moments of happiness.

Formed in 2014 and making their major-label debut in 2017, the rock band never young beach has a song featured in a commercial for Kirin Hakkō Lemon Sour.

Speaking of never young beach, their appeal lies in laid-back tunes grounded in a floaty sound and relaxed, effortless vocals.

The more you listen, the more their songs get under your skin.

Of course, this track fully captures that vibe as well, making it a perfect fit for the calm commercial depicting a married couple enjoying drinks.

“Harunohi” is a song by Aimyon released in the spring of 2019.

It’s well-known for being the theme song of the Crayon Shin-chan feature film, and its down-to-earth, true-to-her lyrics are striking.

The chorus flows with strength, singing of the future, and surely many people have drawn strength from it.

It’s a song you’ll want to listen to when times are tough or when you feel like you’re losing yourself.

In the Green Label beer commercial, it’s arranged as a simple acoustic-guitar-only performance, offering a relaxed, natural feel.
