[Discuss] Viva Japanese Songs!!

My most adored songs are those from Japan, even though I don't understand what they are talking about...

But maybe this is what attracts me, unlike some english or french songs, you just get angry when you get the meaning of those lyrics~~

Yar! I particularly like the anime songs! Some are very, well, the classical type with lots of instrumental. These are becoming rare, but these rare ones are real treasures; take for example the violin and guitar pieces in Noir (sooo melancholic and addictive ) or even the opening song (or was it the ending?) of Brain Powered, Ai No Rinkaku.

huh...I know it's not very 'in' lol, but hope what i said doesn't sound like something your great-grandma would say

Can rap be considered as music??? Hey there's something called 'slam'... it's a bit like rap, but without any music.. up to now, i.e.. Since a slammer recorded a slam cd - with music - is slam still slam, or is it rap now?

hmmm....am i talking nonsense?

Duh... How'd you guess:?:
Je suppose que le "slam" a été travesti en "rap" au fil des années. O_O"

@ Nataku - You don't sound like a great-grandma, just like a fossil.

heh! you're getting it wrong. The slam is a modern version of the poem thing you used to read. Unlike the rap, it's meant to describe something, not criticize, give his opinion or preach ideologies. It's like someone reads a poem...

Jsongs??euh.. Can you illuminate us on the meaning please...
well, it's not supposed to be read fast but due to the fact that it is not accopagnied by a music, the narrator has to change tone rapidly to make it less dull...

by Jsongs, Uri meant japanese songs... XD

Well, now you all see how Osiris is a creep and a stupid boy...

The only Jsongs i've listen to is those in Kingdom Hearts and a group called Geminis... Some kind of alternative hard rock!!!
I love it!!

I prefer "My Sanctuary" and the opening theme of the KH1...
Never listen anything else... you see, i'm so clueless!

'My Sanctuary' is one of my favourite songs...But if I had to make a list of all Jsongs I like, there'll not be enough space in the forum lol
Talking of Square Enix's series, there's one guy in the team who contributes greatly to their success. I'll start another thread for this.

Well, Osi, if you are clueless, c'est pas grave, after all, we're here to share what we know. So you might learn some things from us just as we might learn something from you.

Little from me!!!
And by the way, i've already learned a lot from you all girls!
I once had the remix of the opening theme of KH... Now i think i've deleted it...
Square Enix is really the best!

I strongly agree man. Square Enix has the best team when it comes to quality of graphics, storyline and music.
But let's get back to J-songs....we're straying a bit off subject...

I think that the Noir soundtracks would fit more in the classical section lol But still, no true anime/manga fan shies away from a good anime soundtrack, whether it be instrumental only. For those who'd like to listen to the Noir soundtracks, you can download them at gendou.com, or you can simply pm me
You can also download tons of other J-songs on that site.

Thanks for the tip...
The closing music of the Evangelion episodes, though cahnging everytime is intersting too... Especially the " Fly me to the moon" songs...

"Fly me to the moon". Will check that one. I only know the opening theme "Cruel Angel Thesis". Great one. Unforgettable.

Indeed an unforgettable song....
Eangelion really has some interesting themes...

umm...i know this is an rpg game buit's still a manga and still japanese. so check time's scar. it's an instrumental and it really sounds good. love it!!! ^_^ mwaaah.
