What J-Pop song are you currently listening to?

[Yukito Kunisaki]

...i really didnt get that song. and i also didn't like it.

however...

Tori no Uta - Lia

i like.

The song was catchy to me...well, the chorus was.

Kotoko - Abyss

[GreatNekoKoneko]

Kotoko - Abyss

...if you want catchy...

~Song for Eternity~ - KOTOKO

Kaze no Tadoritsuku basho - Ayana

[Yukito Kunisaki]

...^ just sent you a PM. enjoy

Kaze no Tadoritsuku basho - Ayana

That was cool. Kotoko has always been a singer who has catchy music (Then again, she IS/WAS with I've :P), but that one still wasn't as catchy as Re-Sublimity to me.

Automaton - Eiko Shimamiya (Now THIS Song is so catchy, I decided to make an Air/Kanon/Clannad/ONE drama compilation AMV to it....oh, and this is the same singer as the Higurashi opening singer)

[akutenshi00]

Shimamiya is part of I've Sound too...

I am Calling You (I've remix) - Ayana

[Yukito Kunisaki]

Shimamiya is part of I've Sound too...

I never said she wasn't. I am actually in an I've Sound drive right now.

This mini-album just came out June 27th in Japan, and somehow amazon.co.jp managed to get it to me today. That's freaking awesome. My eyes are welling up already just from the first song. Rurutia's songs are so powerful they all mess me up. @__@

my oh my.
So many names and songs and I have no idea what any of them are or what they sound like.
well.
That's why I'm here.
I'm looking for sometihng new regarding music.
I'm tired now of the whiney angsty teenager voice boy band wannabe punk rock songs like Black Parade.
I'm here to find something new and hopefull j-pop / j-rock can entertain me.
Problem is I'm having trouble getting a hold of anything and when I do it's not my flavour.

I really like groups like breaking benjamin, Lost prophets and the first album of Linkin Park.

Can you guys suggest something that sounds similar to those, but that has strong ties to japanese culture and style?

I know exactly what you mean. I mean I like Yakusoku no Basho and Top of the World, actually disliked Sora no Kiseki after a while, but I'm really pleased with this song. All I know was when I seen 6:20 and it had a soft melody, I knew I was gonna get something along the lines of You Go Your Way.
