The song “Minna ga Minna Eiyū,” well known from au’s “Santaro Series” commercials, is an arrangement of the classic folk dance tune “Oklahoma Mixer,” so even the first time you hear it, it doesn’t feel entirely new.

When times are tough and you’re struggling—no matter what—tomorrow will come.

So eat, sleep, and let’s try again.

Rather than giving you a push from behind, it wraps you up warmly—a true feel-good song.

When you’re down or want to give it your all, listen to this track!
