Favorite Japanese singer or group?

[goldkear]

hi, what is your fave group/singer/song(s)

i like evolution by ayumi hamasaki and sobakasu, the theme song from rurouni kenshin

 

[Chakan]

Hrrm.. as far as J-pop goes, I really dig Psy.S. A friend of mine sent me a bunch of mp3s a few months back and now I have to find some albums...

I also like the sound that Balzac has. It's like a recreation of The Misfits... but in a more positive manner than the 90's `Fits..

 

[Twisted]

X-Japan and all spin-offs are my all time favorites.

I also like any Kenichi Asai projects (Blankey Jet City, Sherbets, Jude).

 

[dark for tears]

i love the mad capsule markets! i have 4 of their albums and i got to see them last saturday on the final date of their UK tour! it was so good, kyono and toru both waved at me

 

[alfred183]

shiina ringo - too many to list
l'arc~en~ciel - driver's high

I also really like:
SPITZ - unmei no hito
cruel angel's thesis - op for evengelion (old school! haha)

 

[dark for tears]

i found a punk version of the evangelion theme..its most interesting

 

[Sakura]

I like L'Arc-en-Ciel best! Also Glay, Utada Hikaru, Move, Emiko Shiratori. Hyde is so Cool! & Tetsu69 too.

 

[dark for tears]

i like glay and luna sea and buck-tick they're good

Though I myself prefer playing stuff like Pierrot, Luna Sea or Fake? ...speaking...Alternative Rock. ^^;;;

 

[paul4a2001]

[Luz-chan]

Hm...I'll have to say Ayumi Hamasaki, Dir en grey, Do As Infinity, Gackt, L'Arc~en~Ciel, T.M. Revolution, hitomi, ZARD, Two-Mix, and Hikaru Utada. *starts dancing to "Rhythm Generation(Red Monster Mix)" by Two-Mix*

 

[Christine]

My favorite is Gackt, cause he got such a pretty face and a lovely voice. My favorite songs are Vanilla, U+K, Story, Kimi No Tame Ni Dekiru Koto.

 

[Saiyuki]

my favorite band would have to be The Pillows and my favorite singer would have to be Sakamoto Maaya. i lust love the rock-punk sound of The Pillows and Sakamoto Maaya can hit almost any note

 

[Atsuko]

My favourite right now is Do As Infinity , but I first heard their music through Inuyasha:clap: ...because it was the theme song..but they are very good in my opinion. Can anyone tell me if they are a popular group in Japan at the moment?

 

[Gaki]

hide ~ Dice

Still learning how to play it on guitar ^^

 

[Meo]

My absolute favorite band is Malice Mizer. Beast of Blood, Illuminati, S-Conscious, and Mayonaka ni Kawashita Yakusoku are some of my favorite songs of theirs.

 

[kisu]

ayumi hamasaki- powder snow, hanabi, ourselves

kana- chimame, kuuchuu buranko, momo

morning musme: as for one day, hyokkori hyoutanjima, te peace

~kisu

Oh yeah, Pillows is my favorite band too. I also like the brilliant green. Can anybody recommend bands that are like these two, so I can download? Thanks.

 

[BlackExodus]

I like Gackt, L'Arc~en~Ciel, GLAY, and hide the most. All of them have so many great songs. It's just too hard to pick favorites.

But I'll try:

Gackt - Papa lapped a pap lopped and Missing
Laruku - Niji and STAY AWAY
GLAY - Aitai Kimochi and Itsuka
hide - MISERY and Pink Spider

 

[Gackt's Twin Fan]

Gackt My two fav songs of his is Oasis and Lu:Na. He's such a hottie ^^

 

[BlackExodus]

So that means you bought the Lu:na/Oasis single, right? I mean, it's your two favorite songs by Gackt with instrumentals for each all on one CD. I would buy it, so of course I did. Gackt totally ROCKS!

 

[kinjo]

My fave band WAS D+Shade, but they broke up in 2000 so that was quite a while ago.

I also like Lastier, but I don't know if they've disbanded or what So now my fav bands now are DeG and Pierrot

But Mr. Children is pretty cool too and is pretty popular as well (the song Hero was in a commercial) (oh, and btw, it's the name of a band not an artist )

 

[audrey]

someone talk about kana's chimame, it's giving me a headache every time i'm listening to it xD i wonder how something so beautiful like kana can have so awful voice.. well, someone likes and another doesn't.

right now i think that maybe these are good;
kagerou - yubikiri
lareine - fuyu tokyo
hide - rocket dive
dir en grey - garden

but hey, ask tomorrow again. i bet you will get different answers^^''

 

[selume]

I really like Ayumi Hamasaki, Morning Musume (as childish as they are), and Utada Hikaru. I haven't heard anything of Gackt's yet.. any suggestions?
