Namie Amuro - NEVER END

I heard this through a performance I accidentally downloaded off the once existing WinMX and I thought it was a beautiful song. Still one of my favorite songs and possibly one of Namie's best pieces.

Utada Hikaru - First Love

My cousin actually sent me this song and I thought it was the most beautiful love song I had EVER heard. I was obsessed with it and I really have so many fond memories with this song. The first time I heard it was also the day before my first time attending Anime Expo (I'm over Anime now but it was still good times in the past). So yeah still one of my favorite Top 10 songs ever.

Ayaka Hirahara - Jupiter

Well the first time I heard this I was like WTF is the hype? This song isn't that great, BIG WHOOP! But slowly this song really, REALLY grew on me and it became a very empowering piece when I was down. Beautiful piece, however it wasn't until "Niji no Yokan" did I really get into Ayaka Hirahara. (As a matter of fact "Niji no Yokan" just started playing!)

Otsuka Ai - Sakuranbo

Well I heard all the HYPE around this single and I decided to check it out. Downloaded the PV and was HOOKED ever since. Still one of the catchiest songs EVER and I never seem to get sick of it. I miss good Otsuka.

Rie fu - Life is Like a Boat

I was watching CDTV, which I love because it gives little previews of all the top 100 songs and their PVs and it's a good way to sample music, so Rie fu's hit single came on and I got really curious cause the melody was nice and her ENGLISH was GOOD too! (Rare in Japanese music HAHA) Anyways at first me and my sister just kept making fun of the title cause it was weird, well at the time anyways haha, and never really thought to actually LISTEN to it. However I somehow did and was IN LOVE! and I PRE-ORDERED her self-titled debut album IMMEDIATELY and was in love since. I am SO excited for the moment I can get my hands on her second masterpiece "ROSE ALBUM".
