Mmm Time to ask everyone who their favourite artists (not band D: ) areeee ^^ Listing minne: - Angela Aki: Pretty piano stuff, gorgeous voice O: - Vienna Teng: Ditto. Although I like her more than Angela Aki O: - Utada Hikaru: Not the greatest singer, but I love her songs <3 - Chihiro Onitsuka: Such a haunting voice *_*;. - Rie fu: Love her voice, love her songs. Simplistic~ - YUI: Same as Hikki. Not that great of a singer, but I love her songwriting <3 Errr... i'll add more later XD

Hard to say as I like a lot of bands... but I'll try for artists
- Rain (Korean!): he does a lot of drama songs in Thailand/Korea and I liked his stuff - ToR+ Saksit Vejsupaporn: Thai piano player... one of the best in the world (literally, this is not my opinion, it is what I've heard about his musical status) - Yui: no reason xD just do - Rie Fu: has some good songs I love
:x the rest are bands I enjoy

AYUUUUUUUU!!!! But anybody who knows me knows that.
Beyond Ayu though:
-Madonna (because she's...Madonna...) -Nanase Aikawa -Ami Suzuki (before she got...weird @.@) -Gackt!
Plus a whole multitude of others. I love music in general. XD

if we include non-Asians... <snip> I was about to ask about that....I mean, I like my J-pop and J-rock as much as anyone else here, but it was a little surprising not to see the first English artist listed? Or any other nationality for that matter... *goes back to relaxing to Norwegian folk music*

Yeah, it's rather overwhelmingly asian here.
Mine:
Ani Difranco - She's definitely number one, the rest aren't in order. She's amazing, and I'm destined to live out the entirety of the album "Dilate" in my life, I think, since I keep finding songs that sum up my situation. Regina Spektor - Is basically the cutest thing ever Bob Dylan - really not the kind of thing that requires explanation.
I think the rest are bands...

Haha. Cause all my top picks are asian D: Although not all in the asian music industries. Vienna Teng <3.
Nonnnn asiannnss that I like, but aren't necessarily my favourites (: : - Lisa Loeb - Fiona Apple - Rachael Yamagata - Mandy Moore
I've liked what I've heard of Regina Spektor, but I haven't listened to enough of her stuff despite the fact that I have three of her albums on my computer ): (missing "Songs" D: ). Annnndd I've liked what i've heard from Ani DiFranco and Charlotte Martin as well (: I agree, Spektor is really cute XD.

My favourites would probably have to be: YUI (Yay! There are other people here that like YUI too!) Ayumi (Who doesn't like her? ^^ ) Ayaka (she's quite a new artist but her voice is beautiful!!) Delta Goodrem (Absolutely beautiful, her songs are ballads most of the time and she is so sweet! Btw.. she's Australian) Anthony Callea (I was quite obsessed a while back but even though I'm not now.. he's still a good singer and he is also Australian. runner-up of Australian Idol 2004).

Imogen Heap, Rufus Wainwright, Utada Hikaru, Sakamoto Maaya, Lea Salonga, Angela Lansbury...and No Regret Life (ohemgeeABAND).
