Japanese Music
 

I was wondering if there is anyone here who likes Japanese music. I feel like I'm the only one in my school other than a friend of mine who has about ten Japanese CD's and a billion songs on her computer.
I don't have any CD's, and I had to toss about foutry of them from my computer, so now I'm only left with about thirty.
I know that there are a lot of anime fans out there, so I was thinking that anime music is also a fav for a few people on these forums.

[COLOR=sky blue]The only japanese music I've been hearing recently is from anime. I love the ending theme to Cowboy Bebop. The lyrics of the song seem to flow better in japanese. I probably could find many songs on the internet, but my speakers don't seem to be working and I can't listen to them unless I get a burner or mp3.[/COLOR]

I Do!
 

I Am Not Sure About J-Music As In SONGS But I Love Japanese Instrumental Music!.! Its Sooo Beautiful!!!! I Still Have To Look For Some Amazing Instrumental Tracks On The Net.

If Anyone Knows Any Good Ones. Please Mention It Here So I Can Download Them!

Thank You! :)

Sounds cool, i have been interested, but the problem is i dont know where to start looking for them. what is some good stuff to look for man?

Well........
 

I don't know who Ruichi Sakamoto is but I do know a very famouse J-Pop artist named Maaya Sakamoto who's music I love.

Oh yeah, and Makg, if you like Japanese instrumental, then find the sone titled "Tank". It's the opening song from Cowboy Bebop and i love it. I've got it on my computer and I'm listening to it right now.

LOL japenese music ! :(
Cant say iv ever heard it ,, or ever want too :p
Simply because i wont understand it

Yoko Kanno also does all of the music to Macross plus and Escaflowne which was created by the same company. And in Escaflowne, Yoko Kanno and Maaya Sacamoto work together on just about all of the music. Maaya is also the japanese voice for Hitomi.

But since I can't order off the internet and there isn't any stores around here where you can get anime yet alone it's CD's I'm stuck with having to download all of his music.

Oh yeah, This afternoon I just bought the first DVD of Escaflowne AND IT'S REALLY COOL.

I don't like Jap music that much cause I have no idea what the lyrics are saying. If I did, I'd probably like it a little more..:confused:

i dunno, something about listning to music that has no lyrics can be alot more soothing than listning to music that you can understand the words, maybe its just me on that...so common guys gimmi some stuff to look for on morhpheus :)

Actually, the only reason I ever started listening to japanese music was so that I had something to listen to while doing my homework.
Music without lyrics is supposed to help your mind express itself better and clear your head. And Japanese music has words that you can't understand, so it's like the same thing. And JPop has an instrument that we don't, it's the human voice, we hear nothing more than sound while English music has all that crap called words in their music, so it takes the effect of "Music" away completely.
I'm not sure if I got my point across or not. I'm bad at explaining things and not good with my words.

I love japanese music, especially themes like the itnro of PE and other similar things in Japanese, such as DOA game themes

I don't know much about Jap music. I'd like to get something to get used to it. Suggestions?:confused:

I don't know about most people, but I like the music to Slayers, some of the songs are awesome, I also love the stuff from Saber Marionette J, and my favorite Japanese song is Zankoku na Tenshi No Teze also known as Cruel angels Thesis from Neon genisis Evangelion.

Yah! GLAY!
 

I love to listen to J-Rock/J-Pop music. My absolute favorite Japanes band of all time is GLAY. They're so cool! :cool: I have tons of anime CDs because after I watch a certain series, I quickly go online and buy the soundtracks, singles, etc. I've got the Cowboy Bebop soundtracks, I have some Final Fantasy soundtracks, Shenmue, Fushigi Yuugi, Rurouni Kenshin.....and a lot more. The J-Rock/J-Pop bands I like are: GLAY, Aucifer, Smap, Judy and Mary, m-flo, Hana Hana, Sophia, Eden....and a couple others, I can't remember. But, I mostly listen to anime music and GLAY. :)
