Picking Up Famous In-Store BGM: A Roundup of Trending and Catchy Songs (41–50)

BOOKOFF

If you’re going to sell books, go to Book Off.

If it keeps playing the whole time you’re selling or buying books at Book Off, doesn’t it feel like the melody and lyrics will keep running through your head for a while afterward? And the folk-song-like part that comes between Book Off’s sound logo surprisingly has these laid-back lyrics that don’t really mean much, yet it somehow gets under your skin, and now I can’t forget it…! It’s also curious how music like this in Japan tends to have a nursery-rhyme feel compared to stuff from overseas.

Daiki

Come to Daiki.

Come to Daiki (Home Center Daiki, Part 3)
Come to Daiki.

Have you ever been to the Daiki home improvement store? It’s now operated under the name DCM Daiki, right? Some of you may remember the gentle female vocals in the in-store BGM.

That song is “Daiki ni Oide yo” (“Come to Daiki”).

In fact, different versions are played depending on the time of day.

If there’s a store nearby, try checking it out.

However, be aware that since 2022 more stores have stopped playing “Daiki ni Oide yo.”

Beisia

Original Song

Songs and background music that every Gunma resident has heard at least once
Original Song

This is a song played at Beisia, a supermarket headquartered in Maebashi City, Gunma Prefecture, with stores mainly across eastern Japan.

Since supermarkets are essential to daily life, the song conveys Beisia’s desire to support people’s everyday lives.

The gentle atmosphere of the sound is striking, and together with the kind, colorful melody, it delivers a strong sense of warmth.

Including the vocals that highlight that warmth, the song also conveys a wish to be a familiar, close presence.

Lawson Store 100

The theme of Lawson Store 100

Here’s the background music playing inside Lawson Store 100, a chain under Lawson.

It has a delightfully cute vibe, with a simple recorder-like accompaniment and a gentle, laid-back vocal.

The melody line is straightforward, but it’s oddly addictive and never gets old no matter how many times you listen.

By the way, the sheet music is available on the official website, so you can easily play it yourself if you feel like it.

If you have an elementary school child, having them play it on a recorder would be adorable.

Nojima

first star

Ichibanboshi, the image song played as in-store BGM at the electronics retailer Nojima.

Written and composed by Hanamizuki, this song portrays the resolve to rise and move forward no matter what hardships lie ahead.

From its opening with lively claps and chorus, you can picture shoppers enjoying themselves in the store.

Warm vocals and melody layered over a medium-tempo band performance gently warm the heart.

Gyo! Gyo! Gyo! Gyoza!MADOKA

Not only are there all sorts of frozen products on the market, but gyoza you make yourself is also a household staple.

The song “Gyo! Gyo! Gyo! Gyoza!” takes a close look at what exactly makes gyoza so appealing and talks about it in detail.

Created to promote the sale of Utsunomiya’s famous gyoza, the track expresses a deep love for gyoza with a light touch.

The combination of bleepy, digital sounds layered with a powerful vocal performance also adds to the fun.

Let’s Eat Meat SongHaru & Chitchi utazoku

There are times when people of any generation feel like eating meat, and I think many people feel happy when they do.

With the idea of eating meat together and sharing that happiness, the song “Let’s Eat Meat” calls out in a light, breezy tone.

Sung by children who encourage you to enjoy meat, the way their voices blend with the airy sound conveys that happy feeling straight and true.

The lyrics are also a highlight, featuring a variety of dishes, making it a perfect reference for how to use meat in different ways.
