something like Namie Amuro's Fish, Put 'em Up, ALARM, Uh Uh or BoA's Lady Galaxy and Revolution Code or ZEEBRA's songs. songs by these 3 artists will do fine since i haven't heard all of their songs.

a link if possible. thx :thumbsup:

Yeah...sounds nice^^ Would be really happy if you could upload few songs by them.
The better idea, just pm me your msn addy, then you can send me per msn, would be much better not?^^

Here you go! I'm not sure if you'll like these artists, but I'm not too familiar with many male singers in this category. Oh, you might want to download the HI-D song "Got 2 Go" in the above links because it might fit in with what you're looking for. :)

DL
ISSA - Sweet Surrender, Going Down Into You, Get Back My Soul (more on the rock side, but I had to include this to show his versatility from his DA PUMP stuff)

DL
Mazda Ryozy - Yokan, Scramble

DL
Ryohei/Yamamoto Ryohei - Can't You See?, Game We Played

Oh man you're great! Thanks :muack: :muack:
The songs are awesome!

anyone here could recommend me for good R&B songs... The songs that has a bit of hip hop sound in it will be nice as well.

OR any song slow R&B songs that can move ur heart....

Cori - sorry for the delay in replying.
Thank you so much for all the stuff you provided! I enjoyed being able to listen to a lot of new singers - I hadn't even heard of most of them before.
UA is very interesting - I liked her voice a lot. I agree she does sound a bit like Salyu. :dancing:

Monta, do you know about Tommy February6? It's Tomoko Kawase from The Brilliant Green. A lot of February6's songs are very dancey. I think you would like her. Links to YouTube videos -

Tommy February6 - Lonely In Gorgeous

Kiss One More Time

I was wondering if you could please upload the Hi-D song again? He is my favorite R&B style Japanese music artist.

Does anyone have ‰©‹à‚Ì—Î by Ua?
I think it's from a really recent album (I heard a clip on the record label's site - it sounded wonderful).
Sorry I do not know how to Romanize this.

Or, does anyone have any tracks by Ua they could recommend?
Thanks to anyone who can help. :fingerscrossed:

Btw - thanks to Cori for alerting me to the existence of Ua!!!!

I posted the above in the wrong thread, but after putting it in the request thread, ShinYo very kindly helped me. :)

Anyway, Cori (or anyone) - have you heard this new album from Ua?
The cover is really weird -

And if anyone wants to hear the song that I'm in love with, here it is -
http://www.box.net/shared/t2chd1ijus

It's absolutely dreamy.

I have to mention that I hate you Al!! That damn Otsuka Ai "Peach" has been playing in my head for the past hour and I haven't heard it since you PMed it to me!!! :P

I haven't heard the new UA album, but I downloaded it. I usually listen to singles/albums when I'm working on the lyrics and I'm only halfway done with her album lyrics. :( I'll post again when I listen to it. :)

it's not really my stuff so it's not in my list :beaten: . Keps, have you heard Foxxi MisQ's GLOSS album??? man i just LOVE that album!

this is really really different from other japanese singers... coz it doesn't sound japanese at all! and if you actually listen to the album in order, you realize that some songs are actually connected to each other.

they're juicy.

okay here's one of the scans from the album

@cori

yeah, PEACH is daymn hyppnotizing. i've been watchin the PV over and over again.

btw girl, i just saw your SHIT LIST! :rofl:

have you heard Katakiri Rekka's new album??? :rofl:

Hey everyone!!! Im new to this thread....I am addicted to J-rock!!...and Rock in general. If its hard and loud it is good (a bit of an exaggeration I know).
Anyone who is interested in good J-rock here are some kickass bands

:metaldevil: Alice Nine (band used in my signiture), Nightmare, Girugamesh, the GazettE, Dir en Grey, UVERworld (debate of whether they are J-rock or J-pop), D, 12012, and Abingdon Boys School :metaldevil:

@shiroi_tora

can't help you much. I love UVERworld but that's all. I listen to Abingdon, but they're just not my stuff (T.M.Revolution freaks me out), they're a group of four oji-san.

you should try An Cafe. a lot of people like them. And it seems like you're more interested in Visual Kei than j-rock itself.

i like Hyde's solos. they're just awsome, especially SEASON'S CALL

Hey guys, I was wonder if you guys have anything on good japanese classical songs? played with the piano? I guessing good songs for movie backgrounds.. thanks! I have heard a lot from different Jdoramas and I dunno who the artists are. Any recommendation would be great!
