A Kansai-based band that passionately sings about familiar feelings everyone has felt at least once, Kyuso Nekokami released this single in 2018.

The lyrics, which wholeheartedly empathize with the feeling of setback, really hit home; even though it’s not telling you to “hang in there,” you somehow feel a fiery heat that makes your inner spirit say, “I’m going to do this!” It’s a number that lets you burn with the image of going just a bit beyond yesterday.

In the 2016 Pocari Sweat commercial “Light Blue Car and Ukulele,” the song playing was “Summertime.” The original is a jazz standard composed by George Gershwin, who was active in both classical and popular music, but in the commercial it’s arranged to feel cute, refreshing, and summery.

The familiar, down-to-earth vocals of Yoh Yoshida and Rio Suzuki and the gentle sound of the ukulele are heartwarming.

Their harmonies are tender and incredibly soothing.

It’s a song that makes you feel like, “I’ve gotta drink some Pocari!” (lol)
