Yeah, the series you probably completely forgot about continues. Well, since it's only part 2, I wonder if it really counts as a series yet... It took me a little bit of time to even find part 1, since I wrote it even longer ago than I thought I did. I will continue linking you to youtube vids of the songs I like. Fun games for this vids: A) Count the number of outfits per performer. B) Check the video statistics using the square button next to the number of views. B, sadly, does not really work for every video.

First off for this post, the "Pop" part of the name is slightly misleading, since I will also discuss music from any other genre, but most of it will probably still be popular. The only restriction that still counts is the "Asian" part. So let's get some rock up in here. Yes, for those of you who may have guessed how I found this song, I still learn about some of my favorite music from anime. It's where I found Matsushita Yuuya. I've listened to some of his other songs too, and look at me, enjoying R&B.

Welcome to my glorified attempt to recommend you some music. )

And in Johnny's discovery (why not?) somehow the group aside from Arashi I find myself most interested in atm is NYC. They're just too adorable. Exhibit A Exhibit B I will not apologize for this. And for [livejournal.com profile] write_way_42, if she's even reading this (which she very well might not be), have Hey! Say! Jump!'s latest single. Enjoy watching Morimoto Ryuutarou and his 9 groupmates dancing around in a spaceship while thanking people in different languages.

So, did you like anything I linked? Do you hate my taste in music? Is there anything which you'd like to recommend to me? I know this post was pretty Japan-centric, but you can help me if you know other Asian groups you think I'd like. You can answer these questions and more if you comment!

That's right, part 1, as in, I'm planning on making this a series. My recent obsession with Arashi combined with watching a bunch of Asian music videos recently, both with a couple of my (now graduated T_T) sorority sisters and with my brother and his fiancee have lead me to want (for better or worse) to explore the world of Asian pop music (and also the JE fan meet-up at Acen. There are many influences). To keep this interesting, I'll try to link to a lot of videos on youtube, but don't be surprised if they go down, especially if they're videos of Johnny's groups.

First, this is the catchiest song I've ever heard.

Starting the journey with Johnny's Entertainment )

Other areas I wanna learn about )

I think I may be starting to turn my brother's fiancee into a bit of an Arashi fangirl. SUCCESS!!

Also, if anyone has any recommendations for me, you are more than welcome to let me know what else I should check out.
