I am in dire need for some new music.....scratch that, I need a new artist.
I'm not a really big fan of rap, I like a bluesy/jazzy/slowy/easy on the ears type music. But I do like some rock music. I listen to people like Mika Nakashima(fav), Ayumi Hamasaki, Mai Kuraki, Mai Hoshimura, Lena Park(fav), and believe it or not L'Arc~en~Ciel.
So any suggestions?? :woohehe:
Oh damn. I was about to suggest Mai Hoshimura <3 and there you have already have it. ;x...
Some other ones I like to listen to are...
Yui - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yui_%28singer%29 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yui_%28singer%29)
UVERworld - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uverworld (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uverworld) - They are more on the rockier side with some softer pop rock type songs.
the brilliant green - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Brilliant_Green (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Brilliant_Green)
Maaya Sakamoto - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maaya_Sakamoto (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maaya_Sakamoto)
Though I don't know if they are quite your taste!
Thanks, actually I already listen to YUI ( I just forgot to put it up there),
but I will look into Maaya Sakamoto
Gackt
I should've known you'd put that!! :)
If you already have some artists you like try going to http://www.tastekid.com/ask (http://www.tastekid.com/ask) and type them in. If it recognises who you put in it'll give you a list of what it considers similar in some way with quick links (click on the ?) so you can hear what it suggests.
It might not match up all of them but you may find one or two new things to listen to
cool I'll try it
Ehh. I'm not really knowledgable when it comes to music that isn't classical. /shot
But I do recommend Taeyang's Wedding Dress/ Big Bang's Haru Haru/ Yuna Ito/ ...BoA? Lol, I feel so out of date with the last two.
^^ The piano portions of the first two are amazing; just saying. *skip
I don't know why but I feel old or weird because I don't listen to classical music... first nancy, now you, is there something wrong with me..? LOL
??? Oh, no no. There's nothing to feel weird about - we all have different tastes. ^^
I feel like I'm the old one liking classical music and whatnot. :shy:
Besides J-rock, what else do you like listening to?
Uh,,, Lady Gaga, Brandy, PCD,Alicia Keys
Lol. American Songs.
:) Beyonce/Mariah Carey/Owl City/Paramore?
yeah i kinda like beyonce and mariah carey, but yes it would be a little weird if i didnt like some of my country's songs/artists
oh yeah I like Celine Dion
Lol, speaking about country songs, what about Taylor Swift?
She's a big hit nowadays.
Ah, and you can't forget Miley Cyrus' "Party in the USA". :vomit:
um...to be perfectly honest I don't think taylor swift can hold a note and miley cyrus is....well I like her show...kinda ROFL
Since we are talking about non-japanese music, you can try (though you may already listen too...)
Lee Soo Young - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lee_Soo_Young (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lee_Soo_Young)

Most of the time I get my jap songs from anime openings/endings and VOCALOID! LOL I bet your all thinking "Shiki and his Vocaloids stuff >.>"
This is only a few example of stuff that I listen to xD I gave you the band/singer with one of their song so you can listen to them and see if you like (take note that if you don't like the songs that I put up there you can look for their other songs too!)
I would have made a longer list if I had more time... but I gotta run study ><"

Purple Line - DBSK
I Do - Rain (Bi)
Bad Guy - Rain (Bi)
Touch Ya - Rain (Bi)
Don't Stop - Rain (Bi)
Love Story - Rain (Bi)
Atlantis Princess - BoA
Don't Stop Now - BoA
Eat You Up - BoA
ID Peace B - BoA
Those are really good. DBSK's Purple Line is both good in Korean and Japanese. As for the BoA, I haven't heard her Japanese version ones, but her Korean versions are defiantly something that's worth listening to, especially her Eat You Up
