Celerity Posted February 14, 2010 Report Share Posted February 14, 2010 Let me introduce you to my favorite Japanese pop singer: Misia. Not that I really like j-pop, but Misia just has some good things going on! She is famous for her ballads that appeared on some dramas over here, but I like her other stuff more. Interestingly enough she started out singing for her high school jazz band and was scouted at a performance. She auditioned against 30,000 other people, won, and got her label. She then had a hard time performing anywhere because she wasn't exactly 'cute' and didn't follow the mold for Japanese pop stars. Like I said, she hit it big when a major drama picked one of her songs for their main theme. My favorite part about her is that she does -not- tune her voice in live performances! 以心伝心 - Something really demonic going on here. This is the song that got me interested in her. Into the Light - This is my theme song for FL goodies! We are the Music - I really like this one. Probably the best for me. This is my daily energy and motivation! I also love the dancing! - I like the dance in the beginning. Ever wonder what seven dancing feral would be like? Edit: Don't be fooled by the costume changes. These are all from the same 2009 concert! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mya Posted February 14, 2010 Report Share Posted February 14, 2010 Hum... not bad but not my thing. The first one had a nice music, but the song was in Japanese. This turns me off, as I like to know what I am listening to. The second one, was in English, better. But it reminded me to much of the "Love Boat" song... But cool idea. I am expanding my Music knowledge, and i love to hear people suggestions. You never know when you will find that rare gem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HouselessRogue Posted February 14, 2010 Report Share Posted February 14, 2010 Got to give it up to Japanese showmanship. Same reason I think Pride was better than UFC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lailanni Posted February 15, 2010 Report Share Posted February 15, 2010 What exactly is the standard for "cute" over there? I think she's really pretty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The-Nameless Posted February 16, 2010 Report Share Posted February 16, 2010 I listen to that into thelight and i hear like 3 different styles. I hear the cowboy bebop soundtrack, I hear the theme from price is right, and I hear b-boy bass lines. It is weird, and I am not sure if I like it. I feel the same way about this music as I do hummis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
