THE PILLOWS!! scream heart
Brought out by the anime 'FLCL', the main theme, 'Ride on shooting star' is a master piece.
Majority of the music in FLCL is by The pillows, and if you dont like them, then im sorry, I just dont like you ninja

damn...*lies about liking the pillows*

does bump of chicken count as Jpop?

they are hyperly addictive... sweatdrop  

[JokerKyo]

Since this thread seems to have been bumped...I'd heartily recommend y'all to listen to The Pillows. They've got really sweet, mellow songs a la The Beatles; really cool stuff to listen to. xp  

[DNA_Guru]

Myeah, I think they're a tad different to the Beatles but still good music. Possibly one of my more favoured J/Rock bands.
I'm more a listener of J/Ska, which I think I've already said in this topic.  

[Lai Woun]

The Pillows are awesome!! >__<
could rattle off whole list of Jpop artists that i listen too but cant think of any right now xp  

[. c i n n a m o n .]

I'm still hooked on old jpop artists like Utada Hikaru, BoA and Do As Infinity.

I like Korean and Chinese ones too ^^

Jeez..My taste in jpop music is so old sweatdrop

I'm definitely looking up some of those songs you guys just suggested.

 

[DNA_Guru]

I still listen to DAI. A little out dated perhaps, but still good music.

Good J.Pop tunes;

Yum! Yum! Orange - Ashita Hareruya (Tomorrow Hallelujah [Roughly translated xp ])
Ska Ska Club - Kings & Queens
The Pillows - Crazy Sunshine
Seatbelts - Rush
Do As Infinity - Oasis
Mai Yamane - Want it All Back  

[Darek Khort]

Go jpop! biggrin xd

I like BoA (Mainly ID.Peace.B, One, Double, The Love Bug [with m.flo] and , Ayumi Hamasaki (such as Trance, Carol/etc), RURUTIA, Orange Range and Namie Amuro. ^___^

Though...for some reason I'm currently obsessed with Korean music such as ones by Se7en, Wheesung, Min Foo and Tony Han.

As well as trying to get some Jay Chou songs. ^___^

Does anyone know Morning Musume??? Lol They're MAD! or is it just me~ The songs are ok but anything else MM related (tv-shows, game-shows, movies, etc) are the Best~

Morning Musume CREEPS ME OUT D: There's something unendingly wrong about the entire production. Have you watched the clip with the boat and the urinals? (The Peace) O.o; I'm sorry, but it's all disturbing to me. Me and muh friends watch their clips when we're up for something stupid and creepy. It's like a centre for ***** (and yus, I can't spell that word ._. )


JPop that I love and respect: Bump of Chicken, MOVE, Kotoko, Namie Amuro, Megumi Hayashibara... There's probably more, but I those are the only ARTISTS I follow. I tend to collect random songs.  

[Ozumou]

I know they are J-Punk, not j-pop

But is it true Guitarwolf will be touring Oz later this year?  

[Anoni]

I used to be way into J-Pop, but I mainly listen to Chinese and English music these days. rofl

But I love FAKE, w-inds., lead, l'arc, Do as Infinity, Shena Ringo, Orange Range, Gackt, Dir en Grey, Malice Mizer, La'cryma Christi, X-Japan, Luna Sea and possibly to a lesser extent, Ayumi Hamasaki and Utada Hikaru. 3nodding
