Monkey Majik!

[touji]

Monkey Majik is a Japanese band that consists of 2 Canadian brothers and 2 Japanese members. They sing in English and Japanese. I'm kind of surprised there wasn't a thread started about them already!

Here is a song from their newest album(Time) called Closer to You!

So, lets hear about what you think of the band!

Yep, they appear on the Oricon charts from time to time. I was drawn to them when I found that their English songs didn't make me shiver and want to jab my ears (ok ok, so most Engrish songs aren't that bad... well, some are). In particular I really like "Fall Back".

I really liked Fall Back too. Their new album is pretty good in general. They have some great stuff, their Sora Wa Maru De album was absolutely amazing though.

I first heard them a while back when they did "Picture Perfect" with m-flo. I really liked that song and the music video was amazing, imo. I've been listening to them ever since.

I like lots of their songs. I agree that Sora Wa Maru De was awesome. The two collabs with M-Flo were good too. ;D I personally like Change. xD shaaaaaamisen

I like their "Time " album, especially " tada, arigatou", " chikyuu" and " together". I think they performed both " tada, arigatou" and "together" on Heyx3 Music Champ. Love their style of music. Their Japanese is getting better on the talks, especially Maynard's.

I've yet to hear any of the songs on the Sora wa Marude album. Been cranking up old tunes from Saito Kazuyoshi. Have to check this album out now that you've all mentioned it's good.
