Monkey Majik is a unique band that’s composed of a pair of Canadian brothers (Maynard and Bliase Plant) and two Japanese guys (tax and DICK). Their recent single 「Around The World」 has held the number four spot on the Oricon top ten list since it was released a few weeks ago. Maynard and Bliase are the two vocalists and the songs have both English and Japanese (Maynard is fluent in both). What appeals to me so much about the song is that combination of languages with a lack of engrish normally found in Japanese music. It’s in a style that I can best describe as something that I’d hear on the local (American) radio station. I’ve been listening to 「Around The World」 for a few days now, but I’m still trying to make sense of the PV. The song is also the theme song to the Saiyuuki drama currently airing on Fuji TV.
