Monobright Popular Song Rankings [2026]

Monobright 'MOTHER' Special Movie

This song expresses feelings for a mother—emotions you can only truly feel and want to convey once you’ve become an adult—sung over a bright sound highlighted by trumpet and saxophone.

The special movie also features special footage from the one-man live show held in January 2016!

WARPmonoburaito9rank/position

MONOBRIGHT 『WARP』

The third major-label single.

Set to a mid-tempo beat and a slightly quirky guitar riff, it candidly weaves a tale of a man-woman relationship.

The long, sobbing twin-guitar solo in the middle of the track is also striking.

The music video, set in a laundromat, is wonderfully surreal—once you see it, its unique sensibility is unforgettable.

WONDER WORLDmonoburaito10rank/position

MONOBRIGHT 『WONDER WORLD』

The lead track from the album ACME, released right after Hidaka Tooru—vocalist of BEAT CRUSADERS (aka Becru)—joined the band.

Composed by Hidaka, the sound leans strongly toward power pop and is highly reminiscent of Becru.

The music video, where they perform while being relentlessly put into holds by women’s pro wrestler Yuzuki Aikawa, is a must-see.

MONOBRIGHT「youth」

Included on the 2013 album “MONOBRIGHT three.” This track is infused without reservation with vocalist Momono’s respect and admiration for bloodthirsty butchers, a legendary band from Hokkaido like Monobright, and its musical style strongly reflects the Butchers’ influence.

MONOBRIGHT 'That Transparency and the Boy'

A song written specifically as the theme for the film After School.

It was the band’s first movie theme song and served as the May opening theme for TBS’s COUNT DOWN TV.

The music video features Yo Oizumi.

While it exudes a sense of youth, its refreshing, catchy melody is pleasing to the ear.

Monobright “Kokoro” MUSIC VIDEO

Kokoro, the third track on the album Bright Ground Music, is a deeply thought-provoking song in which Monobright sings, in their own way, about what the unvarnished “truth” really is.

The music video also includes an interview with vocalist Yosuke Momono, offering a glimpse into the heart of Monobright.

Heartbeatmonoburaito14rank/position

MONOBRIGHT 'Heartbeat'

A track from the distinctive album Shinzo Live-rations, which was recorded entirely live.

Among their songs, this one is especially catchy and pop, and in the latter half you can hear the audience who came to the live recording singing along with a “la-la-la-la~” chorus.

The music video was filmed alongside the live recording, capturing the atmosphere of the day extremely well.
