My Past Life, Many Lifetimes AgoRADWIMPS

Many famous movie theme songs are real earworms, aren’t they? RADWIMPS’s “Zenzenzense” became hugely popular after it was used as the opening theme for Makoto Shinkai’s animated film “Your Name.” The melody repeated in the chorus is addictive and really sticks with you.

The guitar riff is refreshing too, and just listening to it makes you feel invigorated.

Donut SongYamashita Tatsuro

This is a track included on the 1998 album “COZY,” written by Tatsuro Yamashita specifically for a Mister Donut commercial.

The reason I’m introducing this song now as one you may feel you’ve heard somewhere is that Masaki Suda covered it in a Mister Donut commercial in 2023.

The chorus has an extremely addictive melody that’s striking, and the song has a mysterious charm that makes you feel happy as you listen.
