This is the song used in Seven-Eleven’s commercials and occasionally played as in-store BGM.
It was originally a track by the American band The Monkees, but in Japan the cover version by The Timers, the band fronted by Kiyoshiro Imawano, is well known.
The version used by Seven-Eleven is an instrumental arrangement of the song, and its gentle melody, just like the original, is striking.
With its synth and glockenspiel tones, this piece has a calming effect when you listen to it.

Characterized by its catchy melody and upbeat lyrics, the Shimamura theme song has continued to be loved by a wide range of generations.

Ichiran is a tonkotsu ramen chain that originated in Fukuoka and has expanded nationwide.
Its unique “Flavor Concentration Booths,” which separate each counter seat from the next, along with order sheets and a kaedama plate, minimize interactions with staff, making it a hit for those who want to enjoy ramen comfortably even when dining alone.
The in-store BGM at Ichiran has a traditional Japanese feel, evoking the atmosphere of classic yatai ramen stands.
