| I actually prefer Japanese music over English though I listen to both |
| I listen to both, it just depends on what Im in the mood for. I have been listen a lot more Japanese music though lately. |
 |
| My Anime Music is over twice the size of all the rest of my music... I do listen to all kinds of music, but recently I've been listening to a lot of Boom Boom Satellites Exposed - pretty much on repeat while playing CoD4. :) |

| I used to be addicted to Japanese music some time ago. Now I mostly (meaning - 95%) listen to English music. I prefer lyrics which I can understand. Also, I am quite picky when it comes to music and I am sorry to say that Japanese don't really know how to make good stuff (with exeption of few artists). But that is just me. |
| I equally love and listen both English and Japanese music. I also listen to Spanish music when I feel like it. |
 |
| A combination of both of them. I don't really have a fav, although I don't like it when for example Japanese people sing a song from an English artist ( I think it is called cover or something) Like Kiss from a Rose, the English version is good, but the Japanese version is just bleh, and sounds a bit fake. |
 |
| I say both...I do love some english music but I love J-Pop more |

| I like both. It really depends on what mood I'm in. |
 |
| Hm...I'd say....I have more Japanese music in my library than English, so Japanese? Bonus Points More songs English dubbed, that are Japanese. I love my random Japanese musics, but I want to understand it... |
| Japanese, I heardly listen it but the vast bulk of music which has vocals that I listen is J-pop. The rest is just random noises sounding like a desolate train station or some-thing.. ehh, I mean carefully architected dark ambient showing my developed taste in music. |
| Perelman, martyr |
| Both really, although lately it's been a lot more Japanese. |
 |
| other... |
 |
| Japanese Music is indeed very unique, even their pop genre songs are cool! But I'm for Jazz, Acoustic, Acapella and Hip-hop. So English in some sense. |
| What isn't red? What isn't blue? |
| Usually English. Especially with female singers, I dislike how annoyingly high and squeaky Japanese female singers sound for the most part. |
| both, I like more bands that sings in English, most of them from Finland. But I have a lot of J-Music |
     |
| both... |
| Both Japanese and English music are great in many different ways! If you don't understand Japanese, it's nice to listen to their music so you can focus more on the vocals and the beat. This goes for music of other languages too. |
ffchild said: Both Japanese and English music are great in many different ways! If you don't understand Japanese, it's nice to listen to their music so you can focus more on the vocals and the beat. This goes for music of other languages too. I totally agree with this. I don't really know much Japanese yet, so I pick songs that have good beats and good vocals. But that pertains to all of my music, no matter what language. I usually understand some of the song depending on what it is. I am really wanting to learn more , but I don't have time to take a class this semester. Maybe next. But to answer the question, I have most of my music in English. But I do have some songs in Japanese. |
  |
| Lately I've been enjoying Jap music much more than I'm enjoying the English ones. |
      |
| hmmm acually I don't care about language or lyrics so I may like any kind of music both of Eng and Jap are nice but sometimes I prefer Jap music |
| Its nice to know what they sing about, so u wont be listning to songs about blood, killing etc. xD I ended up listning to trance/remixed anime songs :) |
| Japanese. Well, I do listen to English music, but I tend to prefer music which aren't close to me. I mean by that that I do not listen only to Japanese music, but also: Chinese, Bulgarian, Arabian, Korean, Thailandese, Ukrainian, Russian, Spanish, and much more. The only language I do not listen to very much is French, since this is my mother tongue, and I tend to prefer songs that are far from my country! ^^ |
 |
| Both, though english songs show up on my playlist alot more. |
     |
| English!! but Japanese is kool too. Haha. |
 |
| Depends on if I'm addicted to an anime at the moment. For example, I just finished watching the Lucky Star OVA awhile ago, thus I'm currently only listening to anime music and probably will be for another week or two, but before that I hadn't watched any animes for about a month and during that time the only thing I listened to was English music. lol posted one second apart from the person above me |
| Well before a year I'd say English, but now after watching more and more anime, I'd say both. |
| After watching anime I've fallen in love with some japanese anime openings <3 Like SnS Joint <3 ... |
| ... Even if I took time to write alot of intelligent words of deep thought and meaning in my signature, would you really care to read and comment on it? ... |
| english (rock) spanish (regueton) |
 |
| Most Japanese male vocalists are horrible. I like a bit of J-pop, but J-rock is god awful. |

| Japanese. :D I dunno why, but it just appeals more to me. American rap doesn't make much sence to me- these days it's all about one night stands, hotel rooms, and girls. I'm not intrested in that stuff. |
| Truth be told, I just like music. I don't pay all that much attention to lyrics in languages I do understand, so it doesn't bother me not to be able to follow them. I guess if I had to choose though, I'd probably be leaning towards Japanese. I'm stuck on the soundtrack from Macross Frontier at present, and minus a little Chopin, that and a few other songs from anime soundtracks are all I've been listening to. But I could just as easily be stuck on one of my Western favorites instead. (Mostly rock, blues and orchestral/classical stuff) |

(Mostly rock, blues and orchestral/classical stuff) exactly, music can be exactly the same in either language so it shouldn't make a difference. even if i don't understand the language, the music can be just as good so i won't say i like one better. however, i will say that i tend to favor the vocals of most western musicians just because the sound of some japanese singers is just a bit weird to me |
 life is a dream ~death is reality |
| Oh, No Poll eh... Well Japanese Music Because i grew up listening to it, more than English |
| I prefer Japanese music lately, mostly cause I'm learning to speak it, and it sounds cooler than English. |
| English is better in my opinion, but Japanese music does have something unique sounding the other doesnt so i listen to it like a genre of its own |

You can find me on IRC. |
Emberfan11 said: A large majority of my music is English. I only have the theme songs to my favourite anime...character albums and such as well. Singing along with Japanese is a lot more fun, though. Same for me. The only Japanese songs I have are from animes. But I also find it awesome to sing along in Japanese. ^__^~ |
| Japanese because It sounds better o.O and It's usually faster |
| Both. Disturbed for English. Hirano Aya from Japanese. |
