Here’s a super high-energy USJ commercial that really amps things up with a song by the rock band MAN WITH A MISSION.

When it aired, the live-concert-style narration probably left quite an impression.

Under the blue sky, people blast each other with water guns and get soaked to the skin—a USJ summer tradition—hyped up even more with the catchphrase “Hands Up,” making it a piece that leaves you eager for the next summer.

USJ “New Era Real Musical ‘Sing on Tour’”

USJ “SING” On Tour commercial — SING On Tour opens April 18

Sing on Tour is a musical show at Universal Studios Japan featuring characters from the movie Sing.

The song Shake It Off that plays in this commercial is by Taylor Swift.

It’s a tune that many people might already know, since it’s often used in commercials and on TV outside of USJ as well.

If you’ve seen the movie, you’ll know that the pigs Gunter and Rosita sing it! And you can actually experience that very scene from the film right in front of you at this USJ show.

Of course, even if you’re not very familiar with the movie or the song, once this upbeat, super-fun melody starts playing, your body will naturally start moving!

This piece, widely known as the theme song of the famous role-playing game series Dragon Quest, which is popular across generations, was used as the commercial song for the 2017 event Dragon Quest: The Real.

USJ ‘Tonight, let’s break out of the ordinary’ Halloween Horror Nights ‘Absolute Terror is Baaaack!!!!’

USJ NO LIMIT! Halloween 2022 TV commercial: Ultimate Terror is Baaaack!!!! Universal Monsters FEAR, Biohazard (Resident Evil)

Have you seen the Halloween Horror Nights commercial, “Zekyo is Baaaack!!!!”? To match its lineup of various horror characters, it used a track that really stokes a sense of urgency.

It’s “Dies Irae,” one of the movements from the Requiem composed by Giuseppe Verdi.

The intense sound that seems to embody anger and the soaring choral parts leave a strong impression.

If you liked it, why not listen to the whole piece?
