Matt Corby floated "Monday" out in October 2015 as the lead single from Telluric, his debut album, which followed in 2016. It's a neo-soul feat built from almost nothing: layered vocals, a bare percussion part that starts with a snap of the fingers, and Corby's vibrato-rich falsetto riding over the top.
The AU Review's Aidan Hogg heard Jeff Buckley all over it, and Atwood Magazine's Hannah Marie caught something almost Renaissance in the stacked harmonies. At home it reached 48 on the ARIA singles chart and went gold in 2019.
