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.

The beaming smiles of people heading to Hokkaido on the Shin Nihonkai Ferry convey the joy of travel directly.

The Apple Trade In commercial featured a song packed with onomatopoeia, didn’t it? It was pretty striking, so I bet many people remember it.

The song is “Ching Ching,” by rapper Ms.

Jade and singer Nelly Furtado.

In the track, the title phrase is repeated while it depicts a party getting lively.

By the way, “ching” is an onomatopoeic word for the sound of glasses clinking together.

This is an introductory commercial for Fantasy Springs, the new themed port at Tokyo DisneySea that opened in June 2024.

Set to the theme song “Journey to Fantasy Springs,” the ad briskly showcases scenes from around the park, giving viewers a glimpse into its world.

Even the segment of the theme song used in the commercial is moving and evokes the start of a new story, but if you listen to the entire track, you’ll experience an even more dramatic progression—so be sure to give it a careful listen.

GU: “Just by wearing them, you’ll get a modern vibe. Parachute pants you’ll want to own at least one pair of.”

Like ThisNick AM

This is a commercial that conveys the comfort and distinctive softness of GU’s parachute pants.

The visuals emphasize not only their functionality that doesn’t restrict movement, but also the billowed silhouette when catching the wind.

The song used is “Like This” by NICK AM, a DJ, and its distinctive sense of weightless float is striking.

That floating quality in the sound seems to accentuate the soft, wind-catching structure of the parachute pants.

Nothing but Mine feat. Anya GoldParellite

This is the 2023 commercial for the Fukuoka SoftBank Hawks’ unified fan-and-player support campaign, “Hawk Festival.” It powerfully showcases the emerald-green uniforms handed out to attendees and the passion infused in them, along with the dates of the games where they want everyone to fight together.

The strong sound of Parellite’s “Nothing but Mine feat.

Anya Gold,” combined with the layered calls, vividly evokes the image of fans raising their voices together to cheer on the players.
