Longing never sounded this electric. Monnie’s latest single, “Cherry,” is a dazzling burst of 80s-inspired synth-pop that captures the rush of desire and self-discovery with an undeniable groove. From the moment the strong, pulsing bass kicks in, the song beats like a heartbeat, alive, passionate, and impossible to ignore.
What began as a quiet piano ballad transformed into something magnetic and full-bodied—Monnienie layers bold drums, thick synth basslines, and rhythmic guitar lines that shimmer with late-night energy. The result is a soundscape that feels both nostalgic and modern, balancing sultry tension with vibrant release.
The chorus rhythm is pure magic; it practically begs you to twirl through the streets, singing along at the top of your lungs. And when the smooth bridge arrives, it slides in effortlessly, like the calm between emotional storms.
The lyrical rhythm makes “Cherry” instantly memorable while the lush backing vocals add the perfect finishing touch, *chef’s kiss.* It is a song that celebrates complexity, attraction, anxiety, curiosity, and everything in between.
If you have ever felt caught between overthinking and giving in to the moment, “Cherry” is your anthem. Stream it, feel it, and let yourself get lost in the sound.
