I now spend my days as a part-time writer. I’ve contributed to music and manga websites with feature/review articles, and wrote the liner notes included as a bonus for 1st PLACE Inc.’s “IA SUPER BEST.” As for my music background, I started playing guitar in junior high and focused on band activities during my school years. For over 15 years since then, up to the present, I’ve continued releasing original tracks as a Vocaloid producer. My areas of expertise are Japanese rock, Vocaloid, and manga.

From kei cars to compact cars and family-friendly minivans, Nissan offers a wide range of models.

In this article, we’ll introduce all the songs that have been used in Nissan’s commercials so far!

There are plenty of wonderful original tracks as well as tie-in songs, so be sure to listen closely and enjoy them.

My First Kissgagaga supi

This is the song used in the Serena commercial.

It’s a 2006 track by Gagaga SP, led by Kozak Maeda.

It’s Gagaga SP’s cover of Hi-Standard’s “My First Kiss,” which itself is a cover of the Kiteretsu Daihyakka ending theme “Hajimete no Chu.” The arrangement, full of that unpretentious, raw, youthful vibe so characteristic of Gagaga SP, really hits home.

Both the lyrics and music were written by Funky Kato.

The song is included on Funky Kato’s first original album, “ONE,” which was released in 2014.
