A bright red Autozam AZ-3 appears, shown dashing swiftly across the screen.

The BGM features Kome Kome Club’s “I CAN BE,” released in 1985.

As their debut single, the song’s soaring chorus melody—also heard in the commercial—is especially memorable, while its bittersweet lyrics about heartbreak are part of its charm.

It’s the kind of track that makes you want to sing along.

In a Centia commercial that aired in the early 1990s, the Centia is shown speeding through streets in a foreign city.

The stylish exterior naturally catches the eye, and many viewers may have come to admire the car as they watched it cruise leisurely through beautiful scenery.

The background music is Elton John’s 1973 release “Goodbye Yellow Brick Road,” a highly appealing track distinguished by its beautiful, expansive melody and soaring vocals.

MAZDA Familia

Boys & GirlsNEW!Sadisutikku Mika Bando

This commercial introduces three models in the Familia lineup all at once: the 4-door, the 3-door, and the Astina.

Set to music, it shows the Familia freely driving around against a pure white background.

Rather than a typical TV ad, it feels more like a concept movie—an extremely cool piece of footage.

The song playing is Sadistic Mika Band’s “Boys & Girls,” a single released in 1989 when the band reunited, also included on the album Tensai.

It’s a brisk rock tune featuring a refreshing mixed vocal by Karen Kirishima and Yukihiro Takahashi that leaves a strong impression.

MAZDA Cronos

At a sublime momentNEW!yoshida takurou

This is a song featured in a commercial for the Cronos sedan that debuted in 1991.

Its memorable structure begins with the chorus, and its message—one that lets you reaffirm your feelings for someone important—is striking.

The word “tae-naru” in the title means “wonderful.” The lyrics, which convey the wonderful times and relationships shared with someone dear and the sincerity of those feelings, are woven together by Takuro Yoshida’s gentle singing voice.

It’s a beautiful track that warms the heart as you listen.

MAZDA Carol

Everything Will Be AllrightNEW!20seiki Jr.

“Everything Will Be Allright” is the last single they released under the name 20th Century Jr.

before later renaming themselves VisioN.

It features a gentle mood that unfolds at a relaxed tempo, giving it a parade-like sense of fun.

Released in 1989, the song was also used in a Carol commercial.

Its happy vibe pairs nicely with the cuteness of Carol’s rounded body design.

It’s the kind of track that can lift your spirits when you’re feeling down.

MAZDA Capella Wagon

My Beloved Color GirlNEW!momokurobikku

This is a commercial for the Capella Wagon featuring Kenichi Hagiwara in the role of a father, depicting a day out with his child.

The car is parked in a wide meadow, and the image of them lying in the cargo area with the rear gate flung open clearly conveys the unique enjoyment that only a Capella Wagon can offer.

The heartwarming CM features “Itoshi no Color Girl” sung by Momokuro Bic.

Released in 1994, the song expresses straightforward feelings for a loved one, and its charming a cappella sound leaves a strong impression.

Mazda is an automaker headquartered in Hiroshima Prefecture, and Tamio Okuda is also a singer-songwriter from Hiroshima, right? This song was specially written by Tamio Okuda—connected to Hiroshima—for a Mazda commercial.

It has that signature, pleasantly laid-back Tamio Okuda vibe and uplifting lyrics that feel incredibly comfortable and even refreshing.

The music video features Mazda’s sports car, the Roadster (MX-5), and tells the story of a crash-test dummy preparing for a collision test.
