In the McDonald’s commercial featuring Takuya Kimura and Taiga Nakano, the familiar “ba-da-ba-ba-ba” jingle is rearranged with a rock vibe.
The ad announces the return of the Shogayaki Burger “Yakki,” part of the “Choi Mac” lineup that’s perfect for a small bite or a little extra treat.
A rock guitar melody that perfectly matches Kimura’s cool image rings out—and at the end, you hear that iconic jingle! Just like in the commercial, it makes you want to swing by McDonald’s in the middle of your workday.
McDonald’s Most Popular Commercial Songs Through the Years [2026] (51–60)
Original songThe Birthday
In the McDonald’s QUARTER POUNDER commercial, two Namie Amuros signal the start of a fight with a headbutt and proceed to battle it out Street Fighter–style.
The rock sound that perfectly matches the combat scene in this ad is The Birthday’s “CATS NEVER EAT BEEF.” The track is included on the album WATCH YOUR BLINDSIDE, but the version on the album is a live recording; the original studio version exists only in the commercial.
The scorching sound, which adds even more fuel to the fierce clash between the two Namie Amuros, is seriously cool!
TirorimixAdo「Odo」× asmi「PAKU」
The electronic beeps you hear when fries finish cooking at McDonald’s—that sound is the base for a remix of Ado’s “Odo” and asmi’s “PAKU,” known as the “Tiroli Remix.” Its fresh concept, musicality, and the dream collaboration between the two artists generated a huge response.
Pay attention to the sections where the two songs switch back and forth dramatically, as well as to lyrics that don’t appear in the originals! Also note that “Tiroli Remix” is the title of a rhythm game you can play using this track.
Never Ending StoryKaiak
A commercial titled “Happy Meal Graduation” portrays the growth of a cute big sister who moves on from Happy Meals and orders the same set menu as adults.
Featuring Akira Ishida of NON STYLE, the ad uses The NeverEnding Story Theme performed by the Dutch band Kayak.
The song was originally the theme for the German-American film The NeverEnding Story.
It was first sung by the English singer Limahl.
Brimming with dreamlike imagery perfectly suited to a fantasy film, the track evokes the question of what answers lie hidden within an endless journey.
That’s the WayKC and The Sunshine Band
KC and the Sunshine Band’s biggest hit, “That’s the Way (I Like It),” is a quintessential dance number that helped ignite the disco boom.
Blending elements of funk with catchy pop appeal, its rhythm and groove naturally get your body moving and feel irresistibly good.
Since its release, it has maintained explosive popularity and remains a beloved favorite among music fans of all ages around the world—highly recommended by the author!
I feel Coke ’87Satō Chikuyoshi
This commercial portrays how the Big Mac fits into everyday life while highlighting how it supports people’s smiles.
It contrasts the image of someone opening wide to eat a Big Mac with someone opening their mouth to laugh, and it’s also important that people of various generations are shown enjoying it in the same way.
The gentle sound of the song “I feel Coke ’87,” once used in a Coca-Cola commercial, further emphasizes the warm, everyday moments of enjoying a Big Mac.
Sugar Baby Love (cover)
The song used in the Hawaiian Burgers commercial, “Super Hawaiian Burgers,” is “Sugar Baby Love” by the British band The Rubettes.
In the McDonald’s commercial, it isn’t The Rubettes’ original version but a cover by someone else.
The refreshing melody that evokes Hawaii’s exhilarating, expansive seas and skies is memorable! In Japan, it was also used as the synchronized swimming music in the drama WATER BOYS starring Takayuki Yamada.
Doesn’t listening to the song make you want to head to the beach?
