Hello!!
I'm Japanese boy,Yasu. I'm very grad to hear that!!
In these days, I like "Teriyaki Boys"
I like "heartbraker" the best in their songs.
I heard their CD will be released in Europe and U.S. next summer.
But anyway, where did you get the Japanese songs??

Hi Yasu!! I'm ann

Well...I have some programs by which I can download songs, pics, programs, videos...almost everything^^ I'm just writting in search window the title of song or artist (or both^^) and then, that program search for me what I wanted to find...And I can download it. Mabye u've heard about Shareaza, eMule,soulSeek or Kaaza...but I don't recommend Kaaza, besides songs it can download some computer viruses.

Mmm..But, isn't that way legal?? Anyway, my favorite music group is "yuzu" "kobukuro" "tokyo ska paradice orchestra" "aiko" "chemistry"...etc. I can't say everything. 'Cause I like most of Japanese songs, rock, pop.. I hate metal rock, though. You should their songs, and feel 'em..
And I noticed something just now. " sunrise sunrise..." Is it Norah Jones' song, right?? I love that song!!

I think so... In Poland everybody do like that...

Anyway I'll try to find yuzu and others... But do you know gazette?? They're Jrockers. I think I haven't heard japanese metal yet.

YES!! "Sunrise" is by Norah Jones!! Mabye I'm not listening to her often and I don't know most of her songs but this one I love!! Especially start and this sentence "Sunrise...Sunrise...Looks like morning in your eyes"...
Isn't it beautiful^^

Year, plaese find them. Sorry, I don't know about gazette. Do you like them?? I like " sunrise " and " I don't know why " the best in Norah Jones' songs. You should try to listen to " I don't know why ". It's really good song.

If you are from Japan you have to know Gackt right?? ^^ Gosh I'm so happy, in Poland no one knows japanese singers and bands.

Have you ever heard about Gazette?? It's also japanese band but it's not too famous... And it's jRock so you may not like them ^^

Hi all

I'm a Spanish man from the north, near France. I like Japanese music too.

Here, in my country, no one ears this kind of music. In the stores not exist japanese music, no CD's here. I only can buy it through yesasia.

The only way to ear this music is, unfortunately, downloading pirate Sad

no way in my country.

My favourites... Ayumi Hamasaki (hahahaha, who not?), Boa, Nami Tamaki, Kumi Koda, rurutia... and more (a lot of different styles).

hehehe, in my country there aren't a lot of imagination composing music, for this reason i begin virtual explore of japan music. This music surprise me !!!

I'm glad to meet here people who like the same music Very Happy
