Who are some good Japanese muscians?

Question: I like to listen to japanese music, and was wanting to know who some good musicians are! So far my fav's are Ayumi Hamasaki, Namie Amuro, Gackt, & Koda Kumi! And an added Bonus, what song are you listening to right now? I've got Duty remix by Ayumi Hamasaki playing right now! thanks!

Answer: My favorites are some of the older ones. I like and recommend the following singers/groups: Southern All Stars with lead singer Keisukei Kuwata Dreams Come True with lead singer Miwa Yoshida Kiroro Miki Imai 1, 2, and 4 are legends in the Japanese music field. I personally think that singers like Ayumi Hamasaki, Namie Amuro, Koda Kumi, etc. are teeny bopper types. Sort of like "New Kids on the Block" of 80's fame. But at least they could sing. A lot of these young "singers" now need so much digital help that their real voice is so different from what we really hear. Sort of like a Milli Vinilli (sp?) act.
