Rock commercial songs. Classic and popular commercial jingles.

Ms. Hanako on a high pedestalback number

back number – Takane no Hanako-san (full)

Here is a classic song that paints a bittersweet longing for someone you admire from afar.

Told from a delicate male perspective, this unrequited love story resonates deeply with listeners.

Released by back number in June 2013, the track combines a pop sensibility with a wistful melody and emotionally stirring lyrics.

The diary-like words capture feelings for someone out of reach, vividly expressing emotions that many have experienced.

In 2019, it was also featured in a Kirin Brewery “Tanrei Green Label” commercial, winning over an even wider audience.

Anyone who has felt the pangs of love or unrequited affection will surely relate to this song.

It is also known as a piece where you can learn basic guitar chord progressions, making it a popular practice song for those starting out in rock.

BMW 2 Series Active Tourer CM Mr. Children

This commercial conveys the comfortable driving experience of the BMW 2 Series Active Tourer through the lens of a family.

The way it glides lightly through the forest, along with the smiles of the family during the journey and at their destination, clearly expresses that comfort.

The song that further highlights this bright, smile-filled atmosphere is “fantasy” by Mr.

Children.

With its gentle rhythm, refreshing melody, and soaring vocals in perfect harmony, it’s a beautiful track that evokes positive feelings.

Blur – Song 2 (Official Music Video)

BMW xDrive 2018.1 CM

This commercial highlights the stability of BMW’s unique four-wheel-drive system, xDrive, through scenes of the car dashing across snowy landscapes.

The fact that it’s moving at high speed on snow clearly conveys its stability.

The music that further emphasizes this powerful, steady performance depicted in the visuals is Blur’s “Song 2.” Its striking, almost-clipping, powerful sound conveys a sense of going all out, and from that full-throttle energy you can feel the will to push forward.

Until It SleepsMetallica

Metallica – Until It Sleeps (Official Music Video)

This is the song that was used in Toyota’s RAV4 commercial in 1996.

It was, unexpectedly, a Metallica song in a commercial.

And it’s a fairly obscure track, too.

I’m impressed by the taste of whoever chose it.

It’s a track included on Metallica’s sixth album, Load.

Released as a single in 2020, this song was featured in a DOCOMO commercial at the time.

Many of you may remember that in addition to Takeru Satoh, the members of King Gnu also appeared in performance scenes.

You’re sure to be blown away by the vocal back-and-forth between Tsuneta and Iguchi, delivered over a jagged, aggressive guitar sound.
