New CM & CM song for NISSAY | YOU MAY DREAM

Ai chin will be in a new CM for the Nippon Life insurance company
the title is NISSAY | YOU MAY DREAM
ai chin’s CM will be on June.1st but her song is already in the other two CMs
Go listen to it! it’s really touching and the music is just awesome

There`s a good chance the song for this CM would probably be the third track which doesn’t have an instrumental version for her single [Roketto Suniikaa/ One x Time].

This new song preview goes for 30 seconds unaccompanied. It makes me wonder if the whole song is her singing without any backing at all. She has the voice to pull it off.

Otsuka Ai (大塚愛) – “LIVE Acoustic” (Unofficial FANMADE album)

This is a fan-made album that is a collection of Ai-chin`s live performances from various concerts where she plays the piano whilst singing. This is an excellent album and I don`t know why Avex didn`t think of this sort of thing too.  A very moving and beautiful album. Highly reccomended for all, not just fans.
