Shionogi Pharmaceutical: “For the ones you love.” (Version)

Let’s walkikimonogakari

Miki Fujimoto shares what she ‘picked up’ from family life: ‘Suddenly, a weird dance party breaks out…’ Shionogi’s new TV commercial: “For the Ones You Love.”

This commercial uses a grand, forward-looking song by Ikimonogakari—one that encourages us to keep moving ahead—but its message is that COVID-19 is still spreading, so we should stay vigilant about hygiene and seek early diagnosis before conditions worsen.

Miki Fujimoto’s friendly personality really shines through, doesn’t it?

The lyrics, which sing about a woman’s hair, are perfect for a hair color commercial.

The tagline in the ad—“We can be dyed any color”—is great too, isn’t it?

Spotify | “Music for Your Everyday” - Cleaning Out My Parents’ House (Extended Version)

This is a commercial that reminds us of the greatness of music through a scene of a mother and daughter tidying up their home.

In the middle of cleaning, the woman playing the mother finds an old MiniDisc stereo and a stack of MDs she used to use.

As she picks one up and gazes at it nostalgically, the woman playing the daughter searches for the song on Spotify and starts playing it.

Seeing her mother close her eyes the moment the intro starts and listen intently, the daughter simply says, “Nice.” Many viewers probably felt a tug at the heartstrings witnessing a timeless classic transcend generations.

By the way, the song is ZARD’s “Yureru Omoi” (“Shaking Heart”), one of ZARD’s signature tracks released in 1993.

Its distinctly ’90s, accessible melody and Izumi Sakai’s clear, beautiful vocals are utterly captivating.
