Chatmonchy’s iconic and popular songs
I’ve put together a collection of songs by Chatmonchy, one of Japan’s leading all-girl bands.
For me, born in 1993, when I think of girl bands, it’s definitely Chatmonchy.
They had been active as a trio since their formation, but in 2011, drummer Kumikon (Kumiko Takahashi) left the band.
Since then, the group has continued with vocalist/guitarist Ecchan (Eriko Hashimoto) and bassist Akko-chan (Akiko Fukuoka), performing with support members.
By the way, after leaving, Kumikon has been working as a writer, which she had been doing for some time, creating works that use paintings and poetry to turn entire spaces into art—this is her guiding concept.
She also wrote lyrics for many of their songs, so be sure to check them out in this playlist.

Flying Fish ButterflyChatto Monchī
The world it creates is incredible, and I was surprised to think, “Is this really Chatmonchy?” I don’t usually listen to band music, but Chatmonchy’s songs are very easy to listen to, and the lyrics come across so directly that I love them.
This song gives me a boost when I listen to it on days I’m feeling down.
Can’t stopChatto Monchī
A song written by Chatmonchy for the Tokushima Marathon.
It’s packed with Awa dialect, and even the staff are mostly from Tokushima, making it a thoroughly Tokushima-themed track.
It’s a very uplifting song—one you’ll want to listen to when you need a boost to do your best.
Chatmonchy's classic and popular songs (31–40)
to yell, telephone, downpourChatto Monchī
As the title suggests, it’s a song where the guitar, drums, and vocals all pour down on you in a way that feels wonderful.
After the opening mood, it suddenly plunges you into a truly “downpour” of a world—that shift is striking.
The “goodbye” part in the latter half, in particular, really cuts deep.

Continuing with band activities and making it a lifelong career must have come with a lot of anxiety.
This song leaves a strong impression, as if those worries were put into words.
The band’s sound is intense too, as though it’s expressing that very image.
napChatto Monchī
I found the lyrics heartbreaking, with the nuance of wanting to stay by someone’s side forever because you love them, but they won’t let you.
When the gentle melody blends with the beautiful singing voice, it almost brings me to tears.
Listening to it when I want to slowly think about various things makes me feel calmer.
Convenience Store HoneymoonChatto Monchī
Produced by Tamio Okuda, the track definitely has a vibe you won’t find in Chat’s other songs.
It’s orthodox, yet a lovely mid-tempo number with a relaxed groove.
The melody in the chorus feels really pleasant.
Shangri-LaChatto Monchī
This song portrays a bittersweet love and a sense of hope.
It expresses feelings for a lover who can’t quite be honest, through warm lyrics and a catchy melody.
Released in November 2006, it was also chosen as the ending theme for the Fuji TV anime “Hataraki Man.” It broke into the top 10 on the Oricon singles chart and became one of Chatmonchy’s signature songs.
Recommended for those struggling with love or anyone who wants to feel the bond with someone important.
The music video, directed by Hideaki Fukui, has a pop finish, making this an irresistibly singable and charming track.
