Sun and BikiniRIP SLYME9rank/position
A number by RIP SLYME that distills the sparkle and wistfulness of summer instantly whisks listeners away to the seaside.
Their first surf tune, its light rhythm and breezy melody are summer sun on the beach itself.
The lyrics’ portrait of the melancholy of a passing summer and a longing for a dazzling figure is sure to tug at the heart.
Released in July 2008 as their 15th single, it also includes SPLASH, the AXE men’s grooming commercial song, and Supa Sonic, familiar from the SoniQ sports drink commercial.
The track is featured on the album JOURNEY and on the best-of album GREATEST FIVE, released in July 2025.
It’s perfect as BGM for a coastal drive, for moments when you crave a sense of freedom, or when you want to linger over summer memories.
It will surely keep you company as you mourn the passing of summer.
blowRIP SLYME10rank/position
RIP SLYME may be strongly associated with summer songs, but they also have many classic autumn tracks like Tasogare Sunrise.
Blow is the comeback work of DJ FUMIYA, who had been on a brief hiatus since Tasogare Sunrise, and it was released as a single in 2006.
It’s a light, upbeat tune that plays with words in a way only RIP can.
It feels like it could lift those sentimental autumn moods.
The song was used in Recruit’s FROM A campaign, and it also shines as an encouraging anthem that blows away worries and puts a spring in your step.

Stepper’s DelightRIP SLYME11rank/position
This is RIP SLYME’s debut work, which gained immense popularity after being aired for a long period in a commercial.
As the first major release by an artist with a large number of fan club members in their 30s, many people can sing along, and it’s a highly appealing, crowd-pleasing track—something that can be quite a weapon for women to say they like around this era.
DandelionRIP SLYME12rank/position
This song carries a positive message that everyone is free and can go anywhere from here.
It’s a track released in 2004 as the eighth single by the five-member hip-hop group RIP SLYME.
It gives you the feeling of basking in warm spring sunshine.
By the way, “Dandelion” means tanpopo (dandelion) in Japanese.
GALAXYRIP SLYME13rank/position
This is a SoftBank commercial introducing the Galaxy Z Fold7.
A giant Galaxy Z Fold7 appears, and there’s a striking scene where Ryota Bando steps inside its screen, along with the familiar “Father Dog” from the commercials playing a game—memorable visuals abound.
It’s a slightly unconventional way of presenting the product, but it likely piqued many viewers’ interest in the new device.
The background music is another highlight: a parody version of RIP SLYME’s “GALAXY,” chosen to match the product name.
For those who listened to the song in real time in the 2000s, the unexpected reunion with a nostalgic tune must have been thrilling.
