Female Singer-Songwriters’ CM Songs, Commercials, and Popular Tracks Ranking [2026] (21–30)
It’s My LifeYUI22rank/position
Released in 2011 as YUI’s 18th single.
Issued as her third double A-side single, the song was featured in U-Can’s 2011 campaign commercials.
While bright and pop in sound, its lyrics are memorable for encouraging those who are giving their all.
The colorful music video is also a highlight.
Andromedaaiko23rank/position
Released in 2003 as aiko’s 13th single, this song was used in Glico Dairy’s “Café au Lait” commercial and reached No.
3 on the Oricon Weekly Singles Chart.
The lyrics, imbued with aiko’s distinctive worldview, make for a slightly bittersweet track.
two peopleaiko24rank/position
The song used in the Hoyu hair color commercial featuring Aya Omasa was “Futari” by aiko.
Although the track was released in 2008, it wasn’t chosen for the commercial until six years later, in 2014.
The lyrics portray the bittersweet realization that the person you have feelings for is actually thinking of someone else.
Many people have likely experienced a situation similar to what the song describes.
In the lyrics, the narrator says she realized the other person had feelings for someone else before she fell completely for them, yet the tone elsewhere suggests she’s already deeply smitten and unable to stop her feelings.
It’s a poignant song that tells the story of a love with nowhere to go.
Mutual loveaiko25rank/position
This is a Spotify commercial announcing the release of collaboration content for the film Detective Conan: The Million-dollar Pentagram.
In the ad, Conan, having put Kogoro Mouri to sleep, plays the theme song “Soshisouai” by aiko for Kaito Kid and Heiji Hattori.
When Heiji asks how this relates to the case, Conan replies, “I just wanted you to listen,” a humorous touch that’s also a highlight of the spot.
blue skyaiko26rank/position
In the Mercari commercial that aired in 2020, Aiko’s song “Aozora” was featured.
Released in the same year as the commercial, the song portrays the end of a painful love.
Many people have probably experienced something similar to what the lyrics describe—feeling so heartbroken that looking back only makes it worse after a breakup.
For times when you feel, “I can’t move forward just yet,” or “I want to linger a little longer in a past love,” this is a song that gently stays by your side.
hugiri27rank/position
JR SKISKI’s classic winter commercial features Hiyori Sakurada for the 2023–2024 season.
She goes snowboarding with friends, but among them is her ex-boyfriend, and although things are a bit awkward, there’s a calm atmosphere between the two.
Three versions of the ad were produced, and viewers can’t help but feel a flutter of excitement wondering whether they’ll get back together or not.
JR SKISKI commercials are also known for their music, and this time the song is iri’s “hug.” It’s a piece about cherished memories from the past, arranged as a ballad that highlights iri’s rich, warm vocals.
The track pairs perfectly with the story and the snow-swept slopes featured in the commercial.
Wingsmilet28rank/position
It’s a song where milet stands with the piano at her back and sings boldly, conveying the energy of people connecting with one another.
Precisely because the sound is simple, the unique resonance of her voice is strongly emphasized, and its warmth and power come through directly.
“Wings,” as mentioned in the title, is a major theme in the lyrics, depicting a positive feeling that even if you can’t take off alone, by supporting each other you can achieve bigger dreams.
Overlapping Idemitsu Kosan’s stance in the commercial—valuing resource circulation—with the song’s focus on human connection creates an image that teaches the importance of mutual support.
