From Timeless Classics to the Newest Hits: A Roundup of Catchy Commercial Songs (981–990)
Donut SongSuda Masaki
A wonderful Mr.
Donut commercial that evokes a sense of history is the “Anniversary Surprise: Zokuzoku” edition.
In it, Masaki Suda brims with anticipation for Mr.
Donut’s new products, with a song called “Donut Song” playing.
The track was originally written by Tatsuro Yamashita in 1996 specifically for a Mr.
Donut commercial, and this time it’s covered by Masaki Suda.
It sounds fun to compare their vocals and listen to the differences.
Evening PrimroseFujii Ryuta, Fuō Shajon
This is a commercial promoting that Ryukakusan Throat Refresh Tablets also help geisha with their throats.
Set to music, it first shows them dancing gracefully, and then reveals that they were secretly carrying the Throat Refresh Tablets.
It highlights how compact they are—easy to carry and easy to pop into the mouth.
The piece playing behind the dance is “Yoi Machigusa,” performed by Ryuta Fujii and Huo Xiaojun.
With its unique Japanese atmosphere created by overlapping flute and erhu, the music enhances a calm yet elegant mood.
sunshineFujihara Sakura
TOSOH’s commercial “Chemistry is a Cheer: Lifetime” is really good.
I think some people will be moved to tears by the narration that says, “It’s okay to make mistakes, it’s okay to get dirty.” Supporting that kind of CM behind the scenes is Sakura Fujiwara’s “sunshine,” which is another tearjerker—you’ll definitely remember this commercial whenever you hear the song! Fujiwara’s singing voice has a mysterious quality, like a mix of head voice and chest voice, and just listening to it makes your heart feel calm.
As for the English lyrics, I recommend translating them yourself and fully immersing yourself in the world of this song, “sunshine”!

Let’s go! Smile Precure!Kakuno Hayato
This piece is a boldly arranged piano version of the opening theme from the anime Smile Precure!.
The original is a lively, powerful track layered with light, buoyant vocals, but this arrangement emphasizes a gentle warmth that even evokes a sense of nostalgia.
By paralleling a children’s anime with the struggles of entrance exams, it conveys a message of shaking off what’s been weighing you down and, in line with the show’s theme of “smiles,” cheering you on to move toward a happy future.
Original songUta-ha
Pizza Hut’s retro-themed “Which ‘90s Do You Like? Revival 90’s” spot is grabbing attention.
It’s crafted with colors and composition that evoke the 1990s.
Uta, the vocalist of Wednesday Campanella, appears and performs an original song with lyrics introducing the products.
ChronostasisTaniguchi Maguro (KANA-BOON) & Takahashi Honoka (Rīgaru Rirī)
Are you familiar with the commercial for BAR Pomum, the alcoholic beverage from Suntory that lets you savor the fruit flavors at leisure? Lively drinking parties are fun, but it’s a lovely ad that makes you think it might be nice to drink quietly once in a while.
The tagline, “Tonight, I want to drink quietly,” also feels very natural.
The background music is “Chronostasis” by KANA-BOON’s Maguro Taniguchi.
The lyrics, which link the phenomenon of a clock’s hand seeming to stop with romance, are like a kind of love letter and are truly wonderful.
parchedSuzuki Mamiko
A Pocari Sweat commercial featuring Yo Yoshida and Rio Suzuki as a mother and daughter, with Miyu Murata joining them as well.
Starting in December 2023, three versions of the commercial have aired, with the song Karakara, written specifically for the ad by chelmico’s Mamiko Suzuki.
The gentle melody and vocals, which feel like they’re warmly watching over the three as they gleefully play outside in the chilly, leaf-strewn air, are striking.
It makes you wonder what kinds of unseen worlds these three, from different generations, will dive into next.
Through various kinds of play, the song evokes a sense of exploring and opening up those unseen worlds.
