but I think it is really important to realize that mainstream "what they play on the radio" is not really...It's not everything. It's not really indicative of the sheer amount of artists and their creativity.

There are a lot of really amazing artists in the Western scene right now...but it's just that the target demographics don't really listen to them...

but I mean, who cares...do people at ahs listen to only what the japanese target demographic listens to? No lol to say so would be hilarious.

We might have more a little more in common with them. If they listened to everything we did...stars like Alan would be selling 200K a single lol
I agree The last time I heard American mainstream music - I didn't like what I heard, I left for JPOP a long time ago.

I still love and respect EvaneScence, Withing Temptation and Blackmore's Nightm and I am a fan of Jade Valerie and GEO's works.

And you're right most of us don't really listen to everything that's mainstream in Japan.
