Today’s session of Music Video of the Day features a talented J-pop group that isn’t quite Japanese. Please welcome Monkey Majik! This group consists of 2 Canadian members, Maynard Plant and Blaise Plant (brothers), and 2 Japanese members, tax and DICK. The music video featured today, Sotsugyou, Soshite Mirai e., is one of my favorites for its simplicity and touching scenes. It’s like a mini movie. My favorite part is the ending because of the way they transitioned between the frames of the past and present. The song is soothing and calm. It’s one of those songs I can listen to all day. SEAMO’s rap makes the song a bit more energetic but not too much to take away the overall sereneness. It makes me want to reminisce about the past, especially my high school days. Ah, the good ol’ days seem to go by so fast…
