The Summer When You Came DownMOJO CLUB

This is a song by the blues band MOJO CLUB that was used in a Pocari Sweat commercial in 1990.

It has a relaxed mood with a dreamy, floating kind of comfort.

Vocalist Shinji Miyake’s distinctive huskiness is addictive, and it carries a cool vibe reminiscent of Kiyoshiro Imawano.

It’s good old-fashioned rock—rich with flavor.

It brings to mind nostalgic memories, like chatting during a break while sipping Pocari after getting carried away and worn out, or pressing the bottle to your cheek to cool down.

In a Pocari Sweat commercial featuring Yo Yoshida and Rio Suzuki as a mother-daughter duo, the two sing “Yasashii Ano Ko” by Spitz, which was the theme song for the NHK morning drama “Natsuzora” starring Suzu Hirose.

Their harmonies are soothing, conveying both freshness and warmth.

In the ad, the song is used alongside heartwarming scenes—like them singing while playing a small toy piano, and playing in the background as Yo Yoshida ties Rio-chan’s hair.

Although only a few dozen seconds aired in the commercial, a full version has also been released, so be sure to check out their complete performance!

It’s a single released in 2001 by the rock band LOVE PSYCHEDELICO.

That instantly recognizable “This is Delico!” vibe the moment you hear it is just the best.

The heavy guitar riff is cool, making it a very rock ’n’ roll number.

The sound, which evokes the ’70s, always feels fresh and stylish no matter when you listen.

How wonderful it is to play music freely.

The Pocari Sweat commercial that used the song without a credit line also drew attention for featuring the French actor Jean Reno.

This is the song that plays in Pocari Sweat’s web movie “Today Is a Perfect Pocari Day!”, sung by Leo/need, a unit from the game Project SEKAI COLORFUL STAGE! feat.

Hatsune Miku.

Composed by Orangestar, the track perfectly suits the band-themed unit, evoking a strong sense of summer freshness and youth.

While highlighting hydration with Pocari Sweat, the visuals of the Leo/need members enjoying summer align with the music, further enhancing its refreshing atmosphere.

The web movie for Pocari Sweat features “Hare wo Matsu,” produced by Vocaloid creator Orangestar.

The vocals are performed by Hatsune Miku and others who have been appointed as Pocari Sweat ambassadors.

In addition to Hatsune Miku, virtual YouTubers like Mirai Akari and Fuji Aoi also took part, sharing the appeal of Pocari Sweat.

Despite its refreshing melody that perfectly matches the Pocari vibe, the lyrics carry a touch of melancholy that really hits home.

It’s recommended for those who want a fresh, breezy feel while also savoring a slightly sentimental summer.

The original song was written by Akiko Yano and performed by Agnes Chan, and later gained popularity when Akiko Yano did a self-cover.

This version—sung by Yo Yoshida and Rio Suzuki, who appeared in the commercial as the “Pocari mother and daughter,” with the creator Akiko Yano joining in a guest-like role—has a different charm of its own.

The lyrics convey feelings for a beloved person, but given the commercial’s content, this version also evokes the love between parent and child.

SMAP No.5SMAP

In 2007, SMAP appeared in a Pocari Sweat commercial, and in it they were chased by a dinosaur skeleton, with CG showing them drying out and turning into skeletons themselves.

The song is one of the tracks in the “SMAP Medley,” which was included as a B-side to their debut single, “Can’t Stop!! -LOVING-.”
