McDonald’s All-Time Popular CM Songs and Commercial Jingles [2026] (21–30)
Top Gun AnthemHarold Faltermeyer
In the commercial’s “Heart-to-Heart Conversation” version, a keyboard melody begins to play in sync with Takuya Kimura’s lines.
That song is Top Gun Anthem, the ending theme from the film Top Gun composed by Harold Faltermeyer.
He actually won a Grammy for it.
It’s said he wrote it with the movie’s protagonist in mind, and it pairs perfectly with the commercial as well.
There are actually multiple versions, so if you’re interested, try comparing them.
This is my way of life.PUFFY
This commercial portrays McCafé as the perfect place to stop by on your way home from work, where you can enjoy a fun time with a variety of drinks.
It shows Aoi Miyazaki and Suzu Hirose sipping smoothies and frappes, using their smiles to convey deliciousness and a sense of uplift.
Further enhancing the cheerful atmosphere depicted in the visuals is a reworked version of PUFFY’s “That’s the Way I Live,” with lyrics themed around taking a detour.
Staying faithful to the easygoing vibe of the original is a key point, and the blend of the sound and vocals clearly communicates a relaxed mood.

Parallel runningIdutsu Akio
This is the McDonald’s commercial, “Unchanging, Delicious: Double Cheeseburger,” which feels like a drama starring Masato Sakai and Takashi Yamanaka.
It’s a CM that looks back on the two men from their youth to the present.
The music, perfect as a BGM to reminisce about one’s youth or hectic daily life, is an original song written specifically for this CM by composer and musician Akio Izutsu.
It’s a track that evokes a certain sense of nostalgia.
It’s such a shame we only get to hear a little of it in the commercial—you’d really want to hear the full version, wouldn’t you?
Like tonight’s moonElefanto Kashimashi
This commercial portrays Yuya Yagira and Aoi Miyazaki working hard at their jobs and childcare, while McDonald’s Tsukimi menu cheers them on through their day.
The spot featuring Yagira showcases the Tsukimi Burger, and the one with Miyazaki highlights the Tsukimi desserts, with each of them savoring their respective items deliciously.
The background music is Elephant Kashimashi’s signature song “Koyoi no Tsuki no Youni” (“Like Tonight’s Moon”), which adds an even more moving touch to the heartwarming stories depicted in each ad.
FootlooseKenny Loggins
The California Burger commercial, “California,” lets you enjoy an American-style hamburger.
This ad, which captures California’s bright and cheerful vibe, features “Footloose” by American musician Kenny Loggins.
The song, which was also used as the theme for the film of the same name, was a massive hit, spending four consecutive weeks at No.
1 on Japan’s Western music charts.
Its upbeat, dance-inducing energy is enough to lift your spirits just by listening! Enjoying McDonald’s menu while listening to this track is sure to fill you with energy!
At least this / Just this (one thing)WANIMA
This is a song included on WANIMA’s third single “Gotta Go!!,” released in 2017, a band overwhelmingly supported by the younger generation.
It features their signature refreshing sound and forward-looking, message-driven lyrics.
It’s a youth anthem with a summery vibe, and the music video—shot in a baseball stadium—has a sporty finish, culminating in a dramatic scene where white balls fall from above near the end.
The song was used in the “McShake × Calpis Youth Collaboration” commercial.
Just like in the music video, the commercial is memorable for the many white balls, and the students’ smiles and the summery Calpis Shake packaging really catch the eye.
crescent moonayaka
In the commercial introducing McDonald’s delivery service, McDelivery, and the Tsukimi Burger, Yumi Kawai appears as the delivery person.
The story has her delivering a Tsukimi Burger to Yutaka Matsushige.
After handing over the order, Kawai adds a thoughtful line, “Have a lovely moon viewing,” playing a charming delivery worker.
The ad leaves a strong impression with both their wonderful expressions: Matsushige happily munching on a Tsukimi Burger while gazing at the beautiful full moon, and Kawai heading back to the store with a subtly satisfied look.
