Japanese Music

I think I've mentioned it before but I learnt a lot of my Japanese through listening to JPOP. What I loved about Japanese music CDs was that they all came with lyrics - one of the reasons why most Japanese seem to be able to sing quite a few tunes in a karaoke bar I guess ^^;
My favorite artist at the time was Hikaru Nishida - you can see her in action over ten years ago at YouTube and read how I fell in love with her. Another group I enjoyed at the time was Ribbon.
I still enjoy JPOP today - one of my favorite artists is the girl that you see in this image called "Melody" - catch her in action over at YouTube too. I dont really listen to radio anymore and most of the JPOP I learn about is through Anime OP/ED and CM on the TV.

I also used music as a method to learn Korean too and enjoyed groups like Solid, Park Mi Kyung and Clon.
Interested to know how many of you listen to JPOP, what you listen to and recommend and where you go to get your JPOP resources/news.
