J-Pop, J-Rock?

Who likes it?

I like Utada Hikaru, Ayumi Hamasaki as far as J-Pop goes.
As for J-Rock I like The Pillows, L'Arc En Ciel....

Also Yoko Kanno but her compositions aren't really J-Pop... Totally different.

X Japan Rock.

hawk606 · 10th September 2004, 22:47

There's only a few things originating from over there I'm interested in. One starts with an H and one starts with a B

OutlawJim · 11th September 2004, 12:19

THE PILLOWS!! WOOO

unsurprisingly enough, go into them through Furi Kuri. they rock!

I've got a brother who lives in Japan & he plays Japanese stuff for me sometimes. Halcali & Yukari Fresh are good cheerleader-synthpop & Kiseru reminds me of Iron and Wine in a good way. I'll see if he has any Utada Hikaru or Ayumi Hamasaki.

What the hell is J pop and J-Rock?

Sorry, old fart - don't know some of this international stuff, lol.

J: Japaneese
They have music too. It's good.

MegaRock · 17th September 2004, 00:15

Ok, that's what I thought it was.

OutlawJim · 24th September 2004, 07:04

I'm really starting to get into Utada Hikaru, she's cool

Evolution556 · 24th September 2004, 19:24

I prefer Jrock myself. X Japan, Asian Kung-fu Generation, L'arc En Ciel, Dir En Grey, and Luna Sea, but now I dont listen to it anymore.

MidnightViper88 · 25th September 2004, 03:03

Megumi Hayshibara...She's done songs for many anime titles...Nice voice...

I don't understand a damn thing since I don't take up Japanese, but to my ears, it sounds a hell of alot better than much of the American pop that pollutes the airwaves...

Yui Horie is also another good J-Pop singer...

ClaraYuriAsaki · 19th October 2004, 22:16

Huge fan of Ayumi Hamasaki, Megumi Hayashibara, Initial D, Para Para Paradise, The Excel Girls*, and many more. ^_^ I love J-pop. Fun stuff. ^_^

*Someone snatched this CD right when I was about to buy it...

protegechris · 19th October 2004, 22:20

...

I don't know about anyone else, but I wouldn't touch that cd if there weren't boobs on the cover

If you heard some of their songs, you might like them.
