Lovely commercial jingle

NTT’s commercial song. A popular jingle.

NTT’s TV commercials often feature clever concepts—some are funny, others are striking and memorable.

The music they use also includes many catchy songs that stick in your head.

But even if you find a song you like, you might think, “I’ve heard this so many times, but I don’t know the artist or the title!” If I can help answer those questions, I’d be delighted.

With a star-studded cast—including Gen Hoshino, who’s also active as an actor, comedian Naomi Watanabe, and the promising actress Kanna Hashimoto—the ads are a feast to watch.
