Jpop!

[chrono]

So who's into Jpop?
What artists do you like?

Some of my all-time favorites include Maaya Sakamoto, Ayumi Hamasaki, L'Arc~en~Ciel, and Do As Infinity.

More recently, I've gotten into Zwei, Capsule, Nana Mizuki, and FictionJunction Yuuka.

Those, of course, only skim the surface :3

Oo! Oo! Me next!
Love now and always will love:
Ayumi Hamasaki, Shazna, Ai Otsuka, Hikaru Utada, Rip Slyme, Crystal K, Bump of Chicken, Mihimaru GT, Capsule, Perfume, Ram Rider.

Recently Capsule and Perfume have been ruling my ipod. XD

But as well for me, this is only part of what I like. ^_^

Yay! You actually picked the perfect time to reply to this post!

Just last night, I discovered this song, which, when I heard it, I instantly thought "Is this Shazna?!", but no, it's another Jrock artist from around the same time period with a similar style (I think, at least).
If I recall, the artist's name was Baiser or Basier (or something like that).
I'll post the artist/song name when I get the chance

Sweet! I'd love to know! However no one can beat Izam's fabulousness! XD

@_@ I...feel inadequate saying "I like The Pillows!" for fear I'll hear "No, that's Jrock, not Jpop!" or something...And what was that other one? Ufuls? Blame my bad memory...

Don't worry about it
If it's Japanese, I consider it Jpop.
I know people who are really into Jrock hate it when I classify it that way, but that makes it a little easier to talk about it.

So yes, The Pillows certainly counts.
As do Ulfuls
I like, of course, Hybrid Rainbow by The Pillows and Banzai by Ulfuls
