Korean music

Right now i listen a lot to k-pop and other Korean music (an have been doing so long before Gangnam Style). I like a lot of k-pop bands and artists but some of my favorites are Big Bang, 2ne1, 4minute, Beast, Girls Generation, T-ara and F.T. Island (surely I have forgotten to mention some other of the great ones). I am not the typical hardcore fan girl, even if I love the music I find it hard to fall in love with an idol or stalk them. It isn't in my nature I think. but I have fallen in love in the way k-pop often makes me feel.
The amazing dance beats, the flashy outfits, the awesome dance steps and the futuristic and happy output in a lot of the videos makes my heart skip and my lips to smile. The music is often filled with positive feelings that come across the language difference and if you ask me k-pop have truly comprehend the phrase "music is its own language". The sad balads is also wonderful and can make me sad and hopeful at the same time. As you see, k-pop is something important in my life and that's the reason why I write so much about it.
Japanese music
I have for a long time listened to j-pop as well. It was here my interest in Asian music started. From the beginning the main contact I had with j-pop was through anime and it is also here you can find a lot of my favourite ones. Some of the Japanese bands and artists I like are Arashi, Ellegarden, Aqua Times, Miyavi, Rie Fu, KAT-TUN and Hyde. Sadly i don't listen to j-pop as much nowadays, maybe mostly because the k-pop has taken over, but I still sometimes finds a new j-pop song to listen to and then I am going to post it in my blog.
American and European Rock and Pop
Yes, I also listen to American and European music! A lot of it is rockbands like Green Day, Billy Talent
& Foo Fighters but I am also interested in the some of the pop-songs they play on the radio. My interest in pop has grown with my k-pop interest and I especially like the great dance/party songs. I don't really want to list every band and artist here that I like, they are to many, instead I want to encourages you to check out my Spotify or my Youtube account and playlists:
