You have COMPLETELY missed the point.


Personally, I couldn't give a flip about where the music I listen to came from. Good music is good music REGARDLESS of it's originating country. I don't listen to Ayu because she is from Japan, I listen to Ayu because she makes good music. Location should be irrelevant when it comes to tastes in music.


Skal, you make a good point. How, in their minds, should Japanese music 'sound' like? That makes me think of when we were talking about the covers of ayu-mi-x IV and the faux-Japanese style that Ayu was trying to create that Westerners seem to view Japan as being like.
