LOL. I didn't know of any JP bands that had done commercials, much less for something as big as Honda XD. That was hilarious to see the police officer dancing in the middle of the street lip-syncing to the song. Thanks for sharing!

Westkana I bet it's actually common, just like how Aimer's songs are sometimes used as the soundtrack of those commercials, but we just don't notice. Just from the suggested videos on YouTube, OOR's songs have been used a few times in the past. It's usually one of their popular songs, though, so it's kinda a sweet surprise to see them composing a song for this Honda CM. But they say that they are working on a new album, so maybe this song is a part of that album and not exactly exclusive to Honda. What do you think of the song, though?

Migi THANK YOU FOR SHARING!!! Me during the 1st CM: Well, it's nice, but I don't see Taka. :/ Me during the 2nd CM: DARLING SO THERE YOU ARE~ 💋 The song is okay, but it's not something that I'll remember over the years. It's only a few seconds, so ofc no one can really judge. I don't think they're working on a new album since they just released one last year. Most likely the next one will be in 2019.  Btw, going back to "Listen", I just listened to the international version and Aimer is indeed in it. I'm 90% sure she's the "aaahhs" between the lines when Taka sings "you gotta listen, listen". It sounds really cool ^w^ It is her!

Migi I thought it was good! Better than what I remember from Ambitions and most of 35xxxv. The song in the second video reminds me of "Bad Day" by Daniel Powter in the melody, though- not a bad thing though, that song is really nostalgic to me

Angel Westkana YEP HE IS IN THE SECOND VID kyaaaa~ <3 The second song is Take What You Want, the one OOR worked with 5SOS, featured in Ambitions album. The song used in the first video is the new song. Now that their worldwide Ambitions tour is over (closed by one more Japan tour apparently), I do hope they settle down for a bit, take a rest, and pour out the old style we all need. It's been a while. I know we have We Are and I Was King, but they don't compare to the power of Clock Strikes, Deeper Deeper, or Mighty Long Fall. I think I read in a Tumblr post that Taka said they were working on a new album, but no timeline is planned. Whatever the type is, I hope they will release some new works soon and satisfy this thirst. :x

Migi I just love their energy. The quality wasn't the greatest but just seeing them jump around made up for it.  Ah! I gotta watch the new videos you posted! I didn't realize there were more goodies until after I tried posting. LOL! Edit: I just watched them. That is awesome! That is pretty impressive their songs were used for such a large company like that.

Haven't had a chance to listen to it yet, but I saw/bought the song that was released today for the 1st Honda commercial- it's a digital single called "Change"

Westkana Yeah, I checked on my Spotify and the full song 'Change' is already available. I like the instrumental arrangement and it's fun, but not like super crazy fun like some of OOR's songs. As usual, no Japanese lyrics. /sighs

Migi Yeah, I'm listening to it now and I agree. It's better than most of the stuff I heard on Ambitions but I still miss the awesome songs from Zankyo Reference and before :/
