MONKEY MAJIK / Change

Change, released in 2007, was also featured in a car commercial.

The standout highlight is the collaboration with the Yoshida Brothers, masters of the Tsugaru shamisen.

From the intro, the Japanese aesthetic draws you in.

The song is performed entirely in English from start to finish.

Digging into the lyrics reveals a strong desire for personal transformation.

The driving energy centered around the shamisen, which perfectly matches the message, is also awesome.

Enjoy this seamless fusion of Japanese and Western styles.

monkey majik If I knew

Included on MONKEY MAJIK’s album “westview,” released on February 2, 2011.

Theme song for Kansai TV’s “Ashita no Katachi.” A medium-tempo, dream-chasing song that speaks of “Boys, be ambitious,” the kind that makes you want to sing and play on the guitar at dusk.

Livin’ in the sun- Monkey Majik

A track with a nostalgic melody that evokes the Showa era, marked by striking, folk song-like spoken passages in the intro and interlude.

It’s a slow-tempo number you’ll want to listen to while lying under the blue sky, idly letting your thoughts drift to the past.

MONKEY MAJIK – Scramble [Official Music Video]

While MONKEY MAJIK has many funky tracks, this piece takes a different approach, resulting in a downtempo and smooth song.

It leans somewhat toward an R&B style, perhaps.

However, you won’t hear advanced vocal techniques like R&B-style ad-libs or shouts; the vocals stay centered in the low to mid range throughout.

With no abrupt pitch jumps and a good amount of sustained notes, it excels in ease of pitch alignment and makes it relatively easy to rack up bonus points.

SunshineMONKEY MAJIK19rank/position

[HD] Sunshine Nurarihyon no Mago

This is “Sunshine,” the song used as the opening theme for the anime Nura: Rise of the Yokai Clan.

It expresses a forward-looking feeling—holding on to hope even while unsure of the path ahead.

As the title suggests, it gently lets light shine into the listener’s heart.

The endlessly gentle, softly enveloping sound makes it incredibly pleasant to listen to.

It’s filled with MONKEY MAJIK’s warmth.

Also note the fluent English lyrics honed in Canada.

Be sure to translate the lyrics yourself, unravel their meaning, and etch them into your heart.

MONKEY MAJIK / Rainbow-Colored Fish

It was used as the CM song for the SUBARU “IMPREZA.” The balance between Japanese and English is truly excellent.

Although the song is simple, it’s a great track with clever touches throughout—like the two voices subtly overlapping and harmonizing in English.

5.30MONKEY MAJIK21rank/position

Monkey Majik 5:30

Included on MONKEY MAJIK’s album “SPADE,” released on September 22, 2004.

It’s a song that opens with a slightly melancholic guitar intro, depicting someone who, while understanding they don’t know how long it will last, still seeks smiles within a pretentious “dress.”
