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 like J-music! Not a long time I'm into it, so I don't know lots of songs and artists, but I like it!
And yes, I like also Soundtracks from anime: some of them are great! |

I know Ruichi Sakamoto! If I'm not wrong, he also worked with European artists like David Bowie and Brian Eno.

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.

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..

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 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! 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.
