English music or Japanese Music?

BurstAngelX13A · Posted: Thu Sep 01, 2005 5:42 pm Post subject: English music or Japanese Music?

Which do you think is better? I wasn't into music at all before, until that day....It all started when I heard 'Invoke' from Gundam Seed. My brain exploded Shocked

and I wanted to hear more of the OSTs of SEED. I liked them all.........and thats how it all started. I began to listen to all these Japanese Pop and rock from all sorts of anime; Beck, FMA, GS/GSD, Naruto, Bleach, etc. Rie Fu is my favorite artist!! I became a fan of Orange Range!! Right now they're my favorite find of music!!! Why you ask? I don't know, but it seems that Japanese music do 'something' that american music can't....... Language? Tune? Feeling? Chemistry? I don't know why, they just seem 'better'..............to me of course. All I hear people listen to around here is some _____ music and some other stuff that just make me go "meh" or "oh just turn it off!" For Japanese music, well, sometimes you don't understand it, but thats what Japanese class is for!! What do you think? Is english music still your favorite? Or has Japanese music changed that idea?

I prefer Japanese music. Well, don't really know why I got hooked to it, but I find the music in other Language to be uninteresting...

Hm, I've got lots of anime related music. I really like japanese music, but I also have favorite english or german singing bands. Really depends on my mood.

Honestly, I really can't decide. It completely depends on my mood, so it's impossible for me to decide. I prefer American Rock (I mean rock from America, I'm not calling English American...yeah... <_<) over Japanese, and I also enjoy Eurobeat. I can't handle english pop, but I enjoy Japanese pop and rock. So... they rank the same for me.

While I like both I prefer english. It's just good to know what message the singer is trying to get across... and it helps me sing along without making up words Razz

. Although I have to mention for whatever reason I can't stand english pop.. but I love jpop. Dunno why this is.. maybe I'm just crazah

I don't really care what language it's in, so long as I like the music, y'know? I find myself strongly disliking modern english music, so I voted Japanese music in your little poll there. But I really like Herman's Hermits, The Beatles, Simon and Garfunkle, CCR, etc. Y'know, older bands, ones with some talent.

Old rock made more sense and had meaning unlike how it is these days where they just smash the drums break guitars and jump off buildings.

Im all for english music. mainly because I can't understand Japanese and I dont listen to Jrock or pop or J-anything else besides a few anime songs.

Would say Japanese music, J-Pop, J-Rock and all that it seems to have a much more steady beat and sounds a lot better than ours Very Happy
