JMUSIC Artists That Have Grown On You

[Celaphorce]

Ai Otsuka for me...the first song I heard from her was Pretty Voice and I hated the first 15 seconds of it...then I saw her perform it on A+nation and I absolutely fell in love with her.

Namie Amuro...who I am a HUGE fan of now...I hated her Break The Rules tour the first time I watched it...it was the first of Namie I ever heard of then I started to pregress through it and really enjoyed her concert and the songs...so I downloaded some of her albums and singles...I HATED her older music with a passion!!!...GRR...but QOHP was Highly Recommended on so many torrent sites I decided to download it and BAM!!! Sparks flew...BTRT didn't do it...I only liked 4 of her songs then QOHP really hit the nail on the head...is that how the expression goes...? anyways that was that.

BoA...well I never liked her for a lot of reasons mainly because she was always making music...I mean my goodness how many albums can you do in Korean and then Japanese...when I fell in love with her was when Jewel Song came out...the japanese version...I watched the pv and heard the song for the first time and I couldn't help but cry when she shed her tears...it made me feel like I could understand what she was saying but I really couldn't.

Mink...wow...okay where do I begin...I heard One Suitcase from her...didn't know it was her at the time...but her first album came out and I listened to a song off of it...I didn't like it that much...to me her voice was very hoarse but I heard One Wish and it was really good.

Shiina Ringo...her voice was really hard to get used to because it's so unique but the first I heard of her was the live of Stem...I can't remember exactly what the performance was but I have the dvd...anyways it was really amazing...and then I got into more of her music such as Le Salle De Bain...I think that's how it's spelled...anyways I can't stop she's like an addiction.

Ito Yuna...I HATED HER WITH A BURNING PASSION OF 1000 SUNS...only because that's all I heard about when Nana came out...so I started on a single that wasn't from that anime...Mahaloha which is going to be released...and what can I say I fell in love once again.

Mika Nakashima...tsktsktsk...what can I say...there's not much to say I mean Sunao No Mama and Mienai Hoshi caught my eyes and my ears...probably the first artist to do see after Ayumi Hamasaki...but I can't get enough of her now...and She's BEAUTIFUL!!!

and last but not least

HITOMI SHIMATANI...
HATED HER...HATED EVERYTHING ABOUT HER AND ALL THE FUSS ABOUT HER...and then I heard Pasio...hmm...hmmm....GOOOOOOOD!!! I mean my goodness I like fast songs...and her voice just seemed like it went so well with it so I guess you could say I'm infatuated with that song of hers.
