It was not until his third single, "You're the Only...", that he began to receive notable attention. The single helped Ono win the "Rookie of the Year" award at the 34th Japan Record Awards and an invitation to that year's Kōhaku Uta Gassen. In 2018, readers and professional musicians voted him the tenth best vocalist in the history of hard rock and heavy metal in We Rock magazine's "Metal General Election".
