Evening HOLD ON ME [2024 Remaster]

It’s a lively Southern All Stars track with lyrics that deftly capture the subtleties of romance—very memorable.

It uses a wordplay on “evening” to express feelings for the other person.

Included on the album “Let’s Go Popular,” the song was released in July 1984.

The pop vibe and a cappella arrangement are perfectly balanced, showcasing the quintessential Southern All Stars sound.

It’s perfect for getting the crowd going at karaoke! While it conveys the bittersweet side of love, it’s also a fun song to sing.

This commercial showcases the warmth and sense of reassurance that UNIQLO’s Pufftech offers, conveyed through appearances by Haruka Ayase and Kohei Matsushita.

It also highlights the compactness that lets you quickly pull it out when you feel cold, expressing a balance of ease of use and effectiveness.

The song that further accentuates the comfort and warmth portrayed in the visuals is Southern All Stars’ “Ai wa Hana no You ni (Ole!).” With its Spain-inspired sound and lyrics, the track leaves a strong impression, evoking both lightness and a passionate atmosphere.

Two People in a Fading CitySazan Ōrusutāzu97rank/position

Two People in a Fading City

This is a gently melancholic song that evokes a twilight cityscape and seeps into the heart.

It’s included on the album “THANK YOU SO MUCH,” released in March 2025 by Southern All Stars, the rock band that has led the Japanese music scene for many years.

The lyrics portray a man and woman in a delicate, not-quite-lovers relationship, with only time slipping by—a sense of helplessness conveyed through Keisuke Kuwata’s tenacious, resonant vocals.

The track also serves as the theme song for the film “Sunflower on the Board,” enveloping the story in a lingering afterglow.

I especially recommend it to anyone seeking a ballad that quietly stays by your side at the end of the day when you’re alone, or when you’re carrying feelings that are hard to put into words.

The commercial features Haruka Ayase and Kohei Matsushita.
