I basically do not like Japanese Pop music. Most of Japanese pop singers cannot sing. Seriously, they cannot sing! When I was a high school student, so called “Komuro Families” were super popular. Komuro was a music producer, and musicians he produced just sold their CDs like hot cakes! Well, it was over 10 years ago, and I am pretty sure he is no longer “hot” producer… But, when I was checking Yahoo Japan other day, I saw the article about Amuro Namie. She was one of the Komuro family musicians and was extremely popular when I was a high school student. The article I read was about her taking a number one single sales. Obviously, it took nine years for her to come back to #1 position, and the article was praising her reinvention. She is no longer with Komuro, and now she is hip-hop/R&B singer… Hmmmm. I checked her songs on youtube, and well, I guess she is hip-hop/R&B in Japanese way… But, sure she is cute.
Obviously, her song is remix of what a feeling… Kinda nice.
While I was checking out Namie Amuro, I found Japanese girls techno pop band called Perfume. When I first saw their music video, I thought they were horrible. Then, when I saw them for the second time, I thought they were so awesome. Well, I don’t care much of their singing, but music is really good. I loooove cheap techno pop! It’s so addictive…
