The hamburger chain McDonald’s.
It’s probably very familiar to a great many people and feels approachable, isn’t it?

In this article, we’ll introduce a range of McDonald’s commercial songs all at once, so be sure to check out any tracks that catch your interest.
McDonald’s All-Time Popular Commercial Songs [2026] (1–10)
Marikka ’17Itō Marika
This commercial showcases the value and satisfaction of the 15-piece Chicken McNuggets through a light, catchy song.
Marika Ito appears as a school teacher, walking nimbly down the hallway while singing about the nuggets.
The source material for this visual concept is “Marikka ’17,” in which Marika Ito sang as a high school student.
Because that song depicted everyday life as a high schooler, the contrast with her singing as a teacher highlights the passage of time and adds an element of fun.
Hee, hee, hee, hee,NEW!EPO
This commercial expresses the deliciousness of McDonald’s limited-time item, the Rich and Savory Kalbi-Style Teritama, by layering it with the gentle air of spring.
The highlight is Ryo Yoshizawa, joyfully moving with the new product in hand, and his subsequent smile conveys a pure sense of excitement.
The song that further accentuates the springtime exhilaration depicted in the visuals is EPO’s “U, Fu, Fu, Fu.” Its light, memorable sound carried by a gentle rhythm, combined with the tender yet powerful vocals, evokes a feeling of joyful anticipation.
Slay it! Mi amoreNEW!Juice=Juice
A Teritama commercial using performance footage of the idol group Juice=Juice.
If you listen closely to the song they’re singing… you’ll notice it’s actually a parody version created specifically for the commercial! The original song is “More! Mi Amore,” released in 2025.
Both the track and its choreography drew major attention, especially on social media.
In this commercial as well, the dance is showcased along with the parody lyrics, resulting in a very impactful ad.
IN THE RAINXG
This is a commercial featuring the girl group XG, who are active and based in South Korea.
It presents McDonald’s convenient services—such as mobile ordering, coupons, and McDelivery—through visuals with a sci‑fi vibe.
In addition, the “Real-Time McParty with XG” version introduces Real-Time McParty, a streaming event taking place in February 2025.
The background music uses a remix of their song “IN THE RAIN.” Unlike the remix, the original track has a calm, beautiful atmosphere.
Since the lyrics are bittersweet and sad, be sure to listen while checking out the Japanese-to-English lyric translation as well.
William Tell OvertureNEW!Gioachino Rossini
The Tokunaru-do series featuring Masato Sakai, now a familiar face in McDonald’s commercials.
This time, they’re promoting a deal where medium and large French fries are 250 yen.
Not only is the price lower, but the ad also reintroduces how delicious the fries are.
I bet many people thought, “I’m definitely going at least once during the campaign.” The familiar William Tell Overture plays as the BGM, perfectly matching the fast-paced feel of the commercial.
I Should Be So LuckyKYLIE MINOGUE
This is a commercial introducing Set 500, a set menu you can eat for 500 yen.
This time, in addition to introducing Set 500, it also announces the return of the McPork.
The commercial is set inside a city bus.
As the bus passes by a McDonald’s, the driver, voiced by Yuki Kaji, almost says “Next stop, McPo—,” nearly blurting out “McPork.” He then goes on to promote the McPork, and Mikako Tabe, who gets off at the next stop, heads straight to McDonald’s.
The background music features Kylie Minogue’s signature song “I Should Be So Lucky.”
Original songNEW!
This commercial showcases how McDonald’s Premium Roast Coffee wards off the winter chill, conveyed through Junichi Okada’s expressions.
From the moment of inspiration, his energetic walk to the restaurant, and the look of feeling the warmth—his exaggerated reactions effectively communicate the delight in the flavor and heat.
The song, a parody of Kenji Sawada’s “TOKIO,” further emphasizes the commercial’s comedic vibe and bright atmosphere.
While keeping the cheerful melody, it expresses the coffee’s delicious taste and comforting warmth in a fun, upbeat way.
All of the YouthFujifaburikku
Set at a McDonald’s drive-thru, this commercial portrays a milestone of growing up—a passage into adulthood.
It shows a son, newly licensed and still unaccustomed to driving, heading to the drive-thru, while evoking warm memories of when he used to ride in the back seat as a small child.
Through lighthearted, laughter-filled exchanges, it also conveys the reassuring comfort of McDonald’s.
Underscoring the film’s warm atmosphere is the song “Wakamono no Subete” by Fujifabric.
With its striking piano and a sound that blends wistfulness and warmth, the track leaves a strong impression, and the vocals vividly capture that bittersweet feeling.
Sun and BikiniRIP SLYME
The 2024 Triangle Choco Pie commercial featuring Sairi Ito and ENHYPEN’s NI-KI has been creating a buzz for its razor-sharp dance moves.
The “Kirekire Revival Festival” edition is a promo for the Cookies & Cream flavor, which made a comeback in 2024 after three years, and you can enjoy those dance moves here too! The parody song based on RIP SLYME’s “Taiyo to Bikini” also has brand-new lyrics written specifically for the “Kirekire Revival Festival” version, so be sure to pay attention to that as well.
ChooChoo TRAINFANTASTICS
This is a commercial introducing the lineup of the limited-time N.Y.
Burgers menu.
The lyrics of the background music describe the deliciousness of each item, really whetting your appetite.
The BGM is a parody version of “Choo Choo TRAIN” performed by FANTASTICS.
The original song is by ZOO and was later covered by EXILE—truly a classic that’s been passed down through generations.
The commercial’s animation also recreates the famous roll dance, so be sure to watch for that as well.
