Endless Paradigm

so who here like japanese music other then me? im not just talking about anime music i mean really music like on the radio and tv and the way the japanese culture is music is influenced by anime so you can't leave that out.. jpop is just a generic term i and most people use for all japanese music...  i like all types from dance to rock to pop..  in the past there was alot more pop but recently more rock bands have been appearing and i like that seeing as in english i listen to only metal .. i don't like new rap only old school like snoop and stuff (i hate 50 cent and kanye) but that's off the subject..

anyways the japanese band, groups or singers i like are -
Ayumi Hamasaki (my very fav.)
Aya Ueto
Nami Tamaki (HOT)
Abingdon Boys School
AYA
BoA Kwon ( shes korean but singers in japanese just watch inuyasha and see)
dream
Morning Musume (who could resist like 15 hot girls, too bad they drop members like crazy)
Gackt
halcali
Hitomi Shimatani
Shiina Ringo (love her)
UVERworld
The Brilliant Green
Rina Auichi
Hitomi Yaida
Azumi Uehara (duh that's name like forever)
Hitomi Takahashi
OLIVIA
Namie Amuro
