    What's going on,

    I'm was just going through some old music I enjoy and it made me curious. Does anyone have any favorite foreign artists they enjoy from time to time or on a regular basis? I'll go first of course. This is a Japanese artist named Gackt Camui and this is a live performance of his song called "Fragrance", a personal favorite of mine.
    Lyrics are included. By all means, share any artists and songs you guys might have.



    Verse One:
    Unable to detect even my own destination,
    with a slender thread I gradually draw back to myself the memories which were fading into the wind.
    When I listened close to the restless voice of my heart,
    "why on earthwas I ever born?" was what it asked...

    Bridge:
    Unchanging, the moon gazes down upon me
    but it has never yet granted me a reply.

    Chorus:
    *Let me hear your voice,
    I beg of you
    Let me see your dream,
    I beg of you
    For even if we should fall into that unending sleep,
    there is nothing to fear...
    Tell me the truth,
    I beg of you
    Explain to me your sins,
    I beg of you
    The crimson tears which keep overflowing
    have hidden away this face of mine.

    Verse Two:

    Even simple tenderness has grown to be more than I can bear.
    In such a state as this, I cannot remember
    even so slight a thing as the name I once held, and yet
    there is still nothing I can do to resolve it all...

    Bridge:
    Unchanging, the moon still lets
    the rain keep falling so quietly...

    I came across this Taiwanese band called MayDay when I watched a gay-themed Taiwanese film a couple years back called 'Eternal Summer.' (It's on YouTube with English subtitles if anyone is interested in watching it. And I think one of the main guys is attractive, straight in real life, but very pro-LGBT). Anyway, here's the song with some clips from the movie scattered throughout.

    That one was cool, think I'll catch the movie as well. That reminded me a bit of S.H.E.'s "Wo Ai Ni" bit. Here another one from Japan. Colors by Utada Hikaru. If you've ever played a Kingdom Hearts game, you have hear her before

    Yeah. My Chinese professor in college played S.H.E. the first day I stepped into class. I like the way Japanese sounds though. Especially when it's sung. It seems to flow better than other languages.

    Morning all,

    Woke up and thought about this song. This is by the European group Muse and the song is called "Supermassive Black Hole". Their music has been in American movies, but none that you guys might have seen like the baseball scene in the first Twilight or the ending credits in The Tourist.



    Going to add another, this isn't an "artist" exactly. It's a character theme from a game called Guilty Gear Xrd. I thought some might like it because it has a jazzy kind of sound mixed with the rock. It's called "Jack a Dandy"
