"Monday" comes as filous' second original release of 2019, hooking listeners immediately with its light-hearted nature. In his classic laid-back fashion, filous delivers a tune riddled with delicate guitars and a a gentle four-on-the-floor beat, perfectly complimented by Ashe's earnest lyrics and vulnerable voice. As the beat bounces, the lyrics pin something deeper, alluding to wanting to know someone beyond the weekend. Thus the chorus was born.
The music video is another totally hilarious yet relatable entity. It's set in a retro reality TV dating show, and introduces Percy to the audience as someone looking for love. The host then leads us to his back story, where the song begins to play as filous is seen watering a garden perfectly in sync and staring straight into the camera. The video then follows filous through his seemingly regular routine, playing the guitar and flute while maintaining complete eye contact. The videography and outfits in this video will truly transport you back in time, as you fall in love with filous' dorky yet adorable nature.
