Hey! I know I'm not the only one with an old soul, and since I'm not really fond of the current J-Pop scene, I thought it would be cool to share our love for old-school Japanese music, which means everything that has been made the last three decades. The 80's have a very interesting idol movement with artists like Akina Nakamori, WINK and Jun Togawa (probably the first anti-idol), while the 90s saw the beginning of the music career of J-Pop queens Namie Amuro, hitomi and Ayumi Hamasaki, and also bands like X-JAPAN and L'Arc~en~Ciel were HUGE! Almost gaining an iconic status with many fans worldwide.
So, what are you into at this moment? Right now, I can't stop listening to
dream's
eternal dream compilation, back when they were just three members. The CD2 is a non-stop megamix that is just as amazing as the first ayu-mi-x megamix albums. I really love it! But I don't think anyone remembers them aside from "My will" from Inuyasha (which is very sad).
So, your turn now! What are your favorite artists/songs/albums from the good old days, or what was the music you were into when you started listening to Japanese music?
