Forgive me if this has been asked already--but what got you into Japanese music? (If it has been asked, what's your favorite song ever? If that's been asked, then... blue pill, red pill, or pink marshmallow peeps?)

PINK MARSHMALLOW PEEPS!!!! XD I <3 marshmallows!!

Remember, you asked…

Lol but in all seriousness, I think I came around to Japanese music quite naturally… probably like most people do right? Kingdom hearts FTW!

Lol I fell in love with Utada. I wanted to find more of her music but didn't know where to start. Not knowing about the underground following at the time, I kinda just stumbled around the Internet (pre-YouTube) looking for music videos. I ran into a great Korean website called bestiz.net (or was it bestyz.com? Maybe it was both lol) And found a treasure trove of not only Korean pop music, but also Chinese pop, Japanese pop, Japanese rock (my first taste of X-Japan was there ♪( ´▽`) ) and I think I once found a most amazing PV for a Chinese rock band with a female lead vocalist… wish I could find that again…

I'm a rocker at heart. I'd already become tired of the whiney emo music that was taking over the airwaves. So finding bands like duel jewel, Dir en grey, deadman, and X-Japan was like a light at the end of a tunnel!

Of course I went through my awkward stage of actually thinking jpop boy bands could actually sing… (I <3 eye candy!)

YouTube came around soon after and I got introduced to all things Japan! Ooooh wonderful dramas!!! (I also liked Korean and Taiwanese dramas but that's beside the point) takoyaki!! Onigiri!! Sooo much great stuff! So many amazing bands!!
