I'm really starting to get into J-Pop now (Japanese Pop), especially after downloading 2 albums from Namie Amuro, and hearing some songs from Utada & Ayumi Hamasaki.

I was just wondering if anyone else here was a fan of J-Pop? I'm going to share "Style" and "Queen of Hip-Pop" from Namie Amuro in a couple days or so, if anyone is interested :-)

I've always been interested in J-pop but I didn't know anyone else into it.

And god created Terry. lol

A couple of months ago, I heard Utada's You Make Me Want To Be A Man and I was intrigued.

I like J-Pop!

There was a pop music show here in Canada called THE HIT LIST. Once a year they'd go to the UK and do THE BRIT LIST, and one a couple of times they've done THE HIT LIST in JAPAN. They featured heaps of J-Pop, with most of the artists being totally new to me.

I remember one name, off the top of my head, Bonnie Pink. I have a few others but I won't be back into Ottawa until next Wednesday so I'll be sure to re-join.

There's also a lot of great music in China and Taiwan, but they obviously don't count as J-Pop. It's really hard finding pop music from Asia to download. Yes-Asia is one site that's very reliable, but there are a number of MP3 search engines one can use.

Here's one I've used:

See if you can figure that out!

I like some Japanese Pop songs, not many... I think almost of them are rubbish and cheesy...

The download section of the site has been removed. This sucks.
