MomentLeina1rank/position
This is a song written specifically as the CM theme for CalorieMate, depicting high school students devoted to their club activities.
The creator, Leina, is a singer-songwriter who debuted at 14.
Her smoky vocals, which you can hear on this track Moment, are absolutely wonderful! The lyrics portray someone facing themselves while striving toward their goals, and—as the title suggests—cherishing the present moment.
It’s sure to be a source of support not only for high schoolers like in the commercial, but for anyone working hard toward a goal.
PIECE OF MY WISHImai Miki2rank/position

This is a TV commercial for Kao’s detergent New Beads.
It shows a woman played by Yuriko Yoshitaka who whispers, “I want to be praised,” for getting out of bed on a winter morning, making it home despite the cold, and still doing the laundry.
The CM song is “PIECE OF MY WISH,” released by Miki Imai in 1993.
The song’s message—“believe in even the slightest hope and turn it into the strength to move forward”—feels like an answer song to the ad.
Jin jin jingle bellMoritaka Chisato3rank/position

Released in 1995, this song was used that same year as the commercial tune for Suntory Ice Gin during the Christmas season.
Chisato Moritaka herself appeared in the ad, performing a special jingle-version of the song for the commercial.
The self-cover version Moritaka released on YouTube in 2012 is arranged as a mid-tempo ballad, but the original was up-tempo, capturing the fun and excitement of Christmas.
The lyrics repeat the title “Jin Jin Jingle Bell” many times, making it stick in your head after just one listen!
Snow BlossomNakajima Mika4rank/position

Although the lyrics overflow with love, it’s a song that makes tears well up just from hearing Mika Nakashima’s voice and the melody.
The dark tone of the music video further emphasizes the sense of loneliness.
It was used as the commercial song for Meiji Seika’s “boda” and “galbo,” in which Mika Nakashima herself appeared.
Movin’ on without youUtada Hikaru5rank/position

It was released in 1999 as Hikaru Utada’s second single.
The song was featured in a Nissan Terrano commercial, and its lyrics portray a confident woman initiating a breakup.
It recorded total shipments of 1.53 million copies, achieving million-seller status.
Tonight, dreams openYoshizawa Kayoko6rank/position
https://x.com/suntorybeerball/status/1912325072888492531This commercial is set in Snack Koto, with Kotone Furukawa playing the owner, and it also highlights the appeal of Beer Ball served there.
In a calm tone, it conveys that it has a somewhat grown-up flavor and that you can actually enjoy it at home, too.
The song that further emphasizes this mature, atmospheric worldview is Kayoko Yoshizawa’s “Konya, Yume Hiraku.” The overall retro-tinged sound is striking, and together with the vocals, it evokes a strong sense of nostalgia.
everlasting snowAimer7rank/position

The LINE Gift commercial “Christmas with LINE Gift 2022.” The song used in the commercial is “everlasting snow.” It’s a ballad sung by Aimer that portrays a beautiful city on Christmas Day and the happiness of having someone special by your side.
One of its major appeals is the structure: gentle vocals in the verses leading to a powerful voice in the chorus.
Also note how it conveys the Christmas atmosphere without using the word “Christmas.”
