Cry no More is great. My Sugar Cat is a really nice too, it's a smooth jazz song. Although probably my favorite smooth jazz song of hers is Love Addict. I think she made a video for it, but the song is long, 7 minutes.

There sure are alot of gay/bi people on these forums. It's kind of nice not having a bunch of uptight homophobes running around shouting their rhetoric.

Ain't afraid to Die-Dir en Grey
Gackt's songs are the best(except a few),if you do not know Gackt you fail
An Cafe-Escapism
Girugamesh,they have a nice sound
Conceived Sorrow-Dir en Grey

I'd also recommend Dir en Grey to the fans of hardcore screamo,but so not watch their video clips if you don't want to have nightmares.

I KNEW there was this thread somewhere...I spent ages looking in the music subforum D:
I'm just going to post the ones from my Ayaka thread since apart from Utada Hikaru she's the only other Japanese artist I've really listened to.

I'll post the links to the 4 songs that have English subs so this lyrics are so deep and again, her voice is amazing.

Why? - Ending song on Crisis Core (when Zack is...going).

Okaeri

I believe - Don't think much of the hair >.<, but her voice is fantastic...there is also an English version of this song.

Te Wo Tsunagou (Let's Go Together Hand in Hand)

Clap & Love Greeeeat song...a pure bouncy and cheerful song. ^^

Utada Hikaru isn't just good for the soundtrack songs.
She made a couple of good albums. I recommend downlo aah i mean buying some if you come across them. I especially like the last one which is called Heart Station.

I actually don't listen to a lot of Japanese songs unless they're from an anime, but there's one I've been into recently.

God Knows by ENOZ ft. Aya Hirano. It's from Haruhi Suzumiya, and it's the bees knees!
