...And Dir En Grey!

Well Like I said I really like it. Especially since I have lost all faith in the American music industry. My favorite Japanese band is Psycho Le Cemu. I really love Yoko Kano and Nobuo Uematsu. I love the King of Bandit Jing Open song. But no Japanese music has ever truly moved me until today. The last time I heard a song and cried was when a friend gave me a copy of a CD he made. He had this song that was,I don't know. It reminded me of something that I could not name and made me cry. The last American Band that touched me was both the Gorillaz first CD, because the guy who sang vocals, well, he just had this voice that seemed to speak how I feel with sound. I also liked Good Charlotte when they weren't pretenders. I looked up to them. They came from a bad backround and got big. They sang about what people like me feel. One of their songs made me cry but that was just because it was like they had written it about this guy I liked. No American band, or Japanese at that, except the Gorillaz has every really touched me. I guess Nobuo Uemastu came close but that was just for association reasons being as it made me think of my favorite scenes from FF games. But I have finally found someone who has touched me. His music made me cry, laugh, and feel happy and sad at the same time. It moved me to tears. It made me smile like a child again. It gave me goose bumps. It chilled me and warmed my heart at the same time. It made my hair stand up on end and relaxed me at the same time. Who is this great person you ask. Susumu Hirasawa. Well who is he. He is, as you may have guessed by the name, a Japanese man who wrote the music for Paranoia Agent. He sings and writes it all. His voice is... It is so beautiful. Listening to him shows his passion for the music. I downloaded some of his music from his site. He had 10 songs that didn't get put on the Paranoia Agent OST and one that had. He also had some of his other work and samples. After listening I felt like tomorrow would indeed be a better day and that if I died right now, I wouldn't regret it for one minute. He has done something nothing has ever been able to do for me. If you ever can you must at least listen to the song Blue Limbo. It is my favorite and the most beautiful I think. The site I got them from was in English so I am unsure of if that is what it is called in English but... I loved the song, Yume No Shima Shinen Kouen by him but this song was truly the icing on the cake. Try to hear it if you ever can. He is magnificent.

Ok. The song is called Ride The Blue Limbo. and it is the hit single from his 9th CD Blue Limbo. The awesome thing is this guy, he always has free samples from his CD's and such. Very generous. And what's awesome is if you listen, you hear them saying Ride The Blue Limbo. 'Cept it sounds like, "Ride da buru limm bo." god I love to listen to the Japanese pronounce english. Expecially cause so few can tell. Tis da awesome.

i'll add you to my list. hope to talk to ya soon you have alot of japaneses music i wish i had that much

Dir En Grey is a definite, as is L'Arc En Ciel. Utada Hikaru's 'Hikari', otherwise known as 'Simple And Clean', was the song that made me love J-Pop and ultimately, J-Rock. Ayumi Hamasaki is alright, though she can come off as a bit squeaky at times. Malice Mizer, Gackt, Plastic Tree, T.M. Revolution, Cocco, Nami Tamaki, See-Saw, Asian Kung-Fu Generation...there's a lot. Oh yeah, and the guy/band who sang the ending song for episode 136 of Naruto.(If you know who that is then please let me know!!)
Oh, I hardly ever listen to American music anymore. Compared to J-Pop/J-Rock, it's quite...dull and rather repetitive.(No offense!! But I must admit, there are a few American songs out there that I like.)

i listen to japanese music every morning... it buggs the heck out of my brother across the hall

My siblings actually like it...It just gets overwhelming when they sing it together in the car.

I love the Inuyasha japanese songs. My favorite ones are change the world and owai nai yumi. I also like everyheart. I dislike my will.[/u]

Really? I personally like Fukai Mori and Shinjitsu no Uta.

hmm, my fave inuyasha song is, 'dearest'. it's so sad. i'm preforming it at the animehton this year ^^ I'm so excited.
