[Ultimate_Go_Nagai_Fan]

My favorite J-Rock band has to be Fire Bomber. So what if it's not a "real" band? Yoshiki Fukuyama(the singing voice of Nekki Basara from Macross 7) is a rock GOD. JAM Project comes in a close second though.

Vivian Hsu! - she's Taiwanese but she also sings Japanese! Not to mention Korean.

[RaShayRitto]

[TomoyoSakagami]

Honestly, I pretty much like any Japanese artists. Only a few of 'em I hate but not to the point where I remember their names.

Oh and Nujabes is a favourite of mine, R.I.P man.

[Meenah]

Not so much as before, anymore. ;/ It died out two years ago.
I did listen to a selective amout of JRock and JPop such as NewS, Kanjani8, Perfume, Ayabie, Versailles, Phantasmagoria, etc.

Again, it died out. idk, I listen to them every now and then. While my friends talk about them, I talk to my best friend to the other stuff I listen to and its only between me and her. Thats it, and I want to keep it that way honestly. I want to be the different one. ;o

[Full Metal SHORTY!!!]

I'm quite a fan of Japanese music!
Once for a talent show I got up and sung random Japanese songs, most of them from animes. It was funny because I was also wearing an anime style mini-skirt XD
Some of my favourite Japanese bands are:

ON/OFF
Orange Random
Maximum the Hormone

and many more... I just can't think of them right now.

[Aleyna]

I can't even list all the Japanese music that I listen to, and a lot of them are music artists that not so popular. I'll just name a handful.

And commenting on a previous post...I wouldn't consider Gackt a pop singer but rather a Jrock singer...he's too light to be considered hard rock but too heavy to be really pop music. Now if it was a band like alice nine. or UVERworld then I might agree with the pop genre.

[The_Angry_Princess]

I love Japanese music I listen too
