BoA herself appears in the ad, showcasing her beautiful singing voice while using the brand’s headphones.
Overflowing with love for a significant other, the song has captured many hearts and remains beloved years after its release.
The lyrics, which express the wish to spend this Christmas—and all the years to come—together with a cherished partner, are deeply moving.
ResuscitationMr.Children32rank/position

The song that further accentuates the refreshing mood of the visuals, which feel like stepping into the future, is Mr.Children’s “Sosei” (“Resurrection”).
It’s a song that portrays standing back up after a fall and continuing to challenge oneself, expressing a strong will to face difficulties.
I’ll be by your side.Aoyama Teruma ft. SoulJa33rank/position
Soba ni Iru ne, Aoyama Thelma’s signature song released in 2008, was created as an answer song to SoulJa’s track Koko ni Iru yo and became a massive hit thanks to its relatable lyrics.
Many people may also remember that the song was featured in a NTT Docomo commercial at the time.
The CM portrayed the feelings of a female student about to enter high school, and those who were going through the same transition likely resonated strongly with it.
Fourteen years later, in 2022, Aoyama Thelma was once again featured in a Docomo commercial celebrating the company’s 30th anniversary, which also drew attention.
Everyone is a heroAI34rank/position
It was released in 2016 as a digital-only single by AI.

The background music features a song by Danish singer-songwriter Mina Okabe.
It’s a memorable track with a light, bossa nova–like rhythm.
WonderONE OK ROCK36rank/position
This commercial by Asahi Beer focuses on rugby player Kazuki Himeno.
After showing footage of Himeno in matches and training, the latter half of the ad features his striking smile as he drinks a Super Dry that looks incredibly refreshing.
The familiar ONE OK ROCK song “Wonder” is used as the background music, a track notable for its grand, stadium-rock sound.
Battle Without Honor Or HumanityHotei Tomoyasu37rank/position
This commercial features Masahiro Motoki and Haruna Kawaguchi as agents taking on a special mission.
Their challenge is a mission to “reduce body fat.” The key ingredient drawing attention is quercetin.
The scene where Kawaguchi arrives on a motorcycle and hands quercetin to Motoki is staged like a moment straight out of a movie.
Toward the end, it’s introduced that Iyemon Tokucha Premium contains quercetin, which helps reduce body fat.
Adding to the tense atmosphere of the commercial is Tomoyasu Hotei’s signature track “Battle Without Honor Or Humanity.” The razor-sharp, instantly recognizable guitar riff is super cool and compelling.
20TH CENTURY BOYT-REX38rank/position
This is a limited TV commercial for the game “Uma Musume Pretty Derby” that aired during the M-1 Grand Prix 2025.
The commercial marks the first reveal of Stay Gold’s in-game implementation.
As the intro of T.
Rex’s “20th Century Boy,” a signature glam rock anthem, kicks in, a cut-in shot of Stay Gold from behind appears, then the visuals transition to the dignified sight of the Uma Musume racing.
One of the unforgettable appeals of “20th Century Boy” is its striking, powerful guitar riff, which amplifies Stay Gold’s special aura and strength.
Sorrow Beyond the BoogieSazan Ōrusutāzu39rank/position
This commercial showcases the appeal of one of UNIQLO’s popular items, the Bra Top, by highlighting the everyday lives of Haruka Ayase and Yumi Kawai.
It depicts how the piece can be stylishly worn on its own, and the smiles of those wearing it convey a sense of freshness and comfort that makes it perfect for summer.
The song that further emphasizes the calm mood of the visuals is Southern All Stars’ “Kanashimi wa Boogie no Kanata ni.” With its gently resonant rhythm and powerful vocals layered on top, it also evokes a sense of moving forward, little by little.
Black NightDeep Purple40rank/position
Deep Purple’s “Black Night” is a song released in 1970 and one of the band’s signature tracks.
It wasn’t included on an album for a while, but it was added as a bonus track when the remaster of Deep Purple in Rock was released in 1995.
The guitar riff—one of the band’s hallmarks—is striking in this song as well, and the way the chugging rhythm and vocals layer over it gives the track a cool, driving feel.
In Japan, it was used in commercials for UCC Black (unsweetened), and the pairing with this song even makes black coffee feel cool.
