The background music is the classic “Over the Rainbow,” covered by artists worldwide.
For this particular CM, a vocal version by Masayoshi Yamazaki was selected.

Her soft, gentle voice is truly captivating.

This is a commercial for Modarc, one of the Mirage lineup, released in 1997.
It’s memorable for a scene set in a European-style town where a woman tries to catch a cat hiding under a car.
The commercial featured KI SE KI, the vocalist of LUNA SEA.
It’s a sweet ballad with sensuous vocals that you can recognize at once as Kawamura’s singing.
Arrivée des camionneursMichel Legrand
This commercial, which aired in 2001 and shows a lively drive as it suddenly warps from the city into the great outdoors, is for the Lancer Cedia Wagon Turbo.
The vivid yellow Lancer racing through rocky mountains really leaves an impression, doesn’t it? By the way, many people have probably heard the song playing in the background of this commercial but don’t know its title.
The piece is Arrivée des camionneurs, composed by Michel Legrand for the film The Young Girls of Rochefort.
It’s also known in Japanese as “Kyaraban no Tōchaku” (Arrival of the Caravan).
Its passionately evocative melodic line stands out, and once you hear it, its catchiness really sticks with you.
Driver’s HighL’Arc〜en〜Ciel
This commercial conveys the fulfillment and joy of a life with a car through the image of Nanao speeding along in a vehicle.
The fact that the car racing through is an older model is also a key point, suggesting that with Car Sensor you can find your ideal car.
The song used in this commercial is L’Arc~en~Ciel’s “Driver’s High.” Its lyrics and sound capture the exhilaration of driving, and it also conveys a sense of hope—like carving out your own future through your own strength.
In fact, the commercial’s footage is a parody of the song’s music video, so try comparing the two.
IS THIS LOVEXG
This commercial spotlights people who are giving their all—starting with the girl group XG—and also portrays ANESSA’s commitment to supporting them.
A key point is that it shows not only serious expressions but moments of enjoyment as well, powerfully conveying the message that having fun leads to stronger performance and a more fulfilling experience.
The song that further underscores this stylish yet powerful vibe is XG’s “IS THIS LOVE.” Riding on a strong rhythm, their airy vocals create a fresh sense of dynamism, as if stepping forward into a bright future.
