I am Japanese. I am very happy that Japanese music is loved by so many people overseas. Thank you！
80s Japanese music has such a nostalgic feeling to them. The 80s in general was just such an iconic time for music.
It’s exploded on the internet even the obscure ones back then are now widely known and jammed to today
I im albanian from germany and i love japanese
not japanese music City Pop
Of course... There's something about u Japanese that make *AWESOME* Magical stuff... Anime, Music, Act! I'm new to discovered them, and Miki is so GOD TIER💯 No wonder us Americans loves the Japanese Culture more than ours, it's so Different😂😂😂😇🙏🇯🇵
You're right Yamashita Tatsuro and Mariya Takeuchi are married. They both compose and often play or sing on each other's albums. Again they also sing in English often. Personally l love the jazz influences in Tatsuros music. His album "For you" is a real classic.
Thank you for confirming that, and the recommendation, gotta give that a proper listen.
And also SPACY from Tatsuro Yamashita is a banger, please give it a listen too!
Another really great track!
Mariya now helps run her family's onsen...
You probably learned this by now but Mariya wrote plastic love by herself. She was inspired from tatsuro songs and wrote this tatsuro kind of style music.
曲の途中であまり会話せずにきちんと聴いている感じが彼らの音楽への敬意を感じられて嬉しい。
はい、最後までコメントを残そうとします
Been into city pop since 2014. Such a unique sound. Especially Miki. RIP Miki Matsubara. Such a shame she isn't alive to see her music having a renaissance.
I’ve loved city pop for years kinda annoying how it’s just a trend now
@@isabelcast7792 is it really a trend tho only a couple songs plus it’s great to see a resurgence and people paying respects
@@eh6194 it is a trend, yeah I know it’s been around for years but only recently have people showed appreciation for Asian music and cultures and even the food it’s just funny how people like me were called ‘weird’ for listening to old Japanese artists only for it to suddenly become cool.
@@isabelcast7792 I remember one day just searching up Japanese music comp. during a car ride, and the. I realized how good Japanese 80’s city pop is.
@@eh6194 I think you can say it's a trend cuz a lot are mixing those sounds and vibes in their songs.
From Japan.
It is amazing that you guys are enjoying the music we were listening to 40 years ago. And thank you.
Tatsuro Yamashita has respect for street music in the United States. Now it is rap and hip-hop, in the past it was doo-up. Tatsuro has released three albums of doo-up covers recorded multiply by himself, a series titled On The Street Corner.
Nowadays, you can easily record multiples digitally, but he started doing it in the 1970s using tape. It is amazingly accomplished, even listening to it again now.
Unfortunately, Tatsuro is a musician who does not release his music to subscriptions. Online sound sources are almost always illigal. You may want to be careful when dealing with them in reaction videos.
However, there are many sound sources available if you just want to listen. I am a little jealous of you guys who will now be able to meet his music anew.
My goodness, the music that was coming out of Japan during this era was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!
Jealous of us? Man, I’m jealous of YOU! You got to experience it first hand. It’d be so cool to go to a bar or club, and this type of music is what’s playing!
I definitely noticed he doesn’t upload music to streaming services… unfortunate. But a lot of it is on YT thankfully.
Thank you for watching, I enjoyed reading your comment. Do you have anymore recommendations? From Tatsu or anyone else
@@WM20s anything by Tatsuro is out of this world but check out Silent Screamer from the album Ride On Time. That track is just so amazing and I believe it’s on YT. Great video!

日本人だけど英語わからん…😢
Thank *you* , people of Japan, for eeeeeeeeeverything! The world would be so *BORING* without Japan
So nice to see City Pop getting more love! I actually live in the prefecture that Mariya Takeuchi is from in Japan and everyone gets excited when I mention I like her music! Another favorite of mine is Tasogare no Bay City by Junko Yagami. I also recommend stuff by Junko Ohashi, Takako Mamiya, and Tomoko Aran if you're on the lookout for more artists!
Ahh Bay City, I found out about that song (& City Pop in general) via it being sampled in a Vaporwave/Future Funk song.
One of our first videos ever was a music video we shot to a Vaporwave remix of 1984 by Junk Yagami:
th-cam.com/video/OG1UVc3hTys/w-d-xo.html
I recognize some of those other names, definitely down for more. City Pop is one of my favorite genres. Thank you for watching & commenting!
- cool.hands
Anri's nice too ^^
4:00 AM is my favorite city pop piece 👏 👏 right next to magic ways and flyday chinatown
Bay City 🌆 😊
If you guys ever do a part two here are my recommendations !
Junko Ohashi - Telephone Number
Yasuha - Flyday Chinatown
Anri - SHYNESS BOY
Mariya Takeuchi - OH NO, OH YES
This is one god of a suggestion list because I know all these songs and every one of them when I first heard them threw me into a whole aesthetic. Especially Anri whose Shyness Boy I played over 3000 times I'm sure. Great suggestions
Don’t forget Junko Ohashi - I love You So! its very good too
Yesss, also Dress Down
Miracle Love is my favorite Mariya Takeuchi song and if you are "hungry" for more, check out Chinese Restaurant by Takako Mamiya
Also Anri- Last Summer Whisper
From Japan.
真夜中のドアが世界中でリバイバルヒット、
松原みきさんも天国で喜んでいると思います✨
Had to use google translate for that one 😅thanks for watching and shoutout to Japan from NY!
City Pop makes you feel good.
It has this sad nostalgia feeling with it.
You’d almost certainly think that those two feelings can’t coexist, yet that’s precisely what City Pop evokes
@@2yoyoyo1Unplugged what?? Sadness and nostalgia are extremely tied together most the time 🧐 etc are you talking about??
@@mookiestewart3776 i think they mean "makes you feel good" and "sad nostalgia" not usually being compatible 😭
I was born in 02
But it is sooo nostalgic
I am not quite sure what makes it so nostalgic
@@2yoyoyo1Unplugged
I honestly think that Plastic Love started the whole revival of City Pop. There are so many great covers of the song. One that I would recommend checking out is by Friday Night Plans. It's more of a smooth jazzy version. I absolutely love the bass line in that song, really kinda brings the vibes.
No you wrong
@@ElaraArale how so? And like i said, *I* think. Doesn't mean it's true. But from my experiance, streamers and people I personally know have said it was because of Plastic Love why they got into City Pop.
@@mlm5150 I think its a tie between Plastic Love or Dress Down, since Dress Down was used in a lot of memes before Plastic Love blew up iirc
No offense to anyone but Plastic Love doesn't just fit in my ears.
80s Anime made me listen to City Pop
6:39 when the guy in pink said it sounds like the purple guy was just explaining a distant memory I wanted to reach through the screen and say, you got it! Almost everyone who listens to city pop feels this longing or reminiscent feeling for a time that never existed. Like, when the purple dude explained how the song made him think of being in a car with the top down, just cruising, that's a super common description for the way these types of songs make their listeners feel. You remember and even grieve, a time that you never existed in. You remember the joy of a moment that has never existed. That is City Pop. I'm glad y'all were able to really feel that, even if it was only through a few passing comments.
It's funny you say that. My first time listening and I was on a cruise ship laughing and smiling looking at the ocean in my mind.
I've never been on a cruise ship.🤣
City pop always had funky basslines, great horns and drums
Yeah, it’s akin to some of the easy listening Jazz Music of the 70s. The technical skill is present, but with compositions that are accessible!
Yeah...These basslines and drum grooves make these 80-pop unique among modern pops and pretty much vibing and grooving with song from start to end of the song ...
City pop literally just changed my life I've met the person that i love because of it i fucking love japan for creating this
Woah, that’s wicked. I hope you guys are happy 💫💫
how
@@WM20s lol from the north east are we??
Miki Matsubara, Mariya Takeuchi, and Yasuha. The three queens of city pop, you can listen to those three and never get dissapointed.
Flyday Chinatown 🔥🔥
Also anri and tatsuro Yamashita
Magic Ways was LITERALLY the best first song you could have listened from Tatsuro Yamashita. It was my first song to listen from the genre and it made me hooked on the spot!
My first was Love Talkin'. Another amazing track
@@WM20s ooh that one is an absolute gem of a song! Definitely one of his best ones
@Kenny A It was my first song too! It really had such a great feel to it, love it so much man.
@@keowvin Really amazing!
Easily my favorite. Love Talkin and Ride on Time are great as well
You gotta give my girl Anri some love, anything from her album "Timely!" is a banger
anything of anri is banging

日本のアーティストが海外でも聴かれてるのは嬉しく思えます✨
Hey! A Japanese fan here. For “Stay with me” it has very japanese ‘80s vibes in lyric wise too.
In the main chorus, it mainly says “Stay with me. Opening the midnight door, I had cried saying ‘please don’t go.’”.
Very Japanese way to say like “I’m admitting it’s quite childish to cry for goodbyes but I can’t help”
Into the rabbit hole we go ♥️
Welcome to the world of city pop.
Hope you enjoy your stay.
Oh I’m DEEP in the rabbit hole! Now it’s my goal to rope the other two along 😂😂 thank you for watching!!
- cool.hands
The spouse of Mariya Takeuchi is a great Author and Composer recognized in Japan and in the world...
If these tracks and the song Plastic Love worked well, it is because they are friends with the band TOTO and part of the song was recorded in Wastlake in the studios of Michael Jackson where he was present...
Yamashita Tatsuro is considered the Quincy Jones of Japan .
So much for the anecdote 👍
I love Japanese City Pop! Some solid pop-r&b jams for sure. Plastic Love is one of my favorites.
Facts, so soulful. You have any other favorites?
@@WM20s
Try out "Rainy Walk" - Tatsuro Yamashita
th-cam.com/video/A2nE2Ah89G4/w-d-xo.html
P.S. I just learned that Mariya & Tatsuro are married!
I’m Japanese. I love that you three didn’t say a word and just listened to the songs 🎧🎶 I felt so much respect🫶 it’s amazing the old songs(my parents era in japan) have been so popular as “city pop” all over the world nowadays. 🎉
I love how City pop captures the vibe of the early 80s... There are alot of old anime that had city pop theme music, also some super sentai as well. Like Choujin Sentai Jetman had a very city pop ending theme. There are alot of kpop that are diving into city pop like, Ateez- Take Me Home, Brave Girls- Riding to name a few.. Brave Girls actually have a few songs with that sound.
80s Japanese music has always been popular throughout East Asia and Southeast Asia. I grew up hearing these from my mother's cassette collection.
You can never go wrong listening to city pop, it's just perfect. If you guys are interested in new city pop artists you should definetely listen to THREE1989 and Yukika, they are amazing as well! But Tatsuro is definetely my favorite, he simply is a genius. And the crazy thing is that Mariya's Plastic Love went viral and was in almost everyone's youtube recomendations decades after the release and city pop became very popular again, this time worldwide... it's just fenomenal! Thank you for reacting to their music!
It was a pleasure to do. Thank you for watching, and we’ll look into those artists you named
If you said three1989 then you must have seen th Netflix show where the singer was in there. It's called terrace house
I like how creative you guys get with your reactions. I never expected you to react to these classics
Classics are essential to any music lover's library. These are as good as it gets!
80's Japanese pop music is top tier.
And 90s
If you’re interested is some other Japanese artists but want a more rap-heavy concept then I highly recommend checking out Takayan, he’s an incredible lyricist and rapper with some pretty interesting concepts- I don’t want to overwhelm y’all with recommendations or requests though, but you guys are doing amazing ^^
Takayan is great ! I really like his scream song
The guy who dressed as a maid💀💀
@@ParkBarkbarkk omfg- yeah him, he’s an icon
Some of my favorites are
Junko Ohashi - Sweet love
S. Kiyotaka & omega tribe - dear breeze
S. Kiyotaka & omega tribe - never ending summer
Kingo hamada - midnight cruising
Anri - last summer whisper
Yamashita Tatsuro - sparkle
Yamashita Tatsuro - Mirai
Love seeing more people enjoying the vibe that is city pop
Japanese City Pop from the first time I listened to it, has replaced my night time drives. Straight bangers with a good sound system and people will stop you to ask what song you're playing
seeing someone appreciating the world's music rather than sticking to what they've used to listen makes me happy. Being open to different genres from different countries makes one person to be actually called a music enthusiast. Rock on guys ❣️
I'm Japanese-American and I've listened to city pop my entire life! I always associate it with the kind of music my parents listened to and old 80s-early 90s anime due to that vintage sound and vibes it gives. It warms my heart that city pop is getting a lot of recognition!
City Pop gives me nostalgic feelings about the place where I've never come and time when I haven't been born
I won't lie. I have discovered city pop just couple of months ago properly and I love it more than kpop or English artists' song. It just feels really soulful.
It's so nice to see young people appreciating this music so many years later.
City Pop is the best, it's my favorite genre along with Argentinian Rock
You're god damn right 😊
it’s so wholesome watching y’all vibe and look at each other as y’all are bumping your heads to the music 😂🥰 warms my heart haha
thank you! we appreciate you
I really love that more people are getting into Citypop, it’s such a great genre to listen to just chill/vibe with! Love ya reactions, I can really feel your guys’ energy. Personal recommendation for anyone wanting to listen to more of it is “I love you so” by Junko Ohashi!
When i saw that you reacted to magic ways, i was so surprised! Im so glad that you guys reacted to that song… its truly one of my favorite and it holds so much memories for me. You guys get a new sub!
Amo el "City Pop" y a toda la música de "Tatsuro Yamashita" Es una musica súper hermosa y con una atmósfera increíble. Saludos desde México!
We love old school anime and city pop. Happy to know that more people are listening to it.
It’s always difficult to listen to “stay with me” when you know Miki Matsubara has passed on from this world already. It’s rather haunting to hear her singing it to you…be sure to check out toshiki kadomatsu! He’s the Man! Beaches, babes, sports cars, etc…he’s the man that all other men wanted to be like. And check out minako yoshida…one of the greatest voices I’ve ever heard. TONS of power and presence, really damn impressive
Toshiki >< I love his music too especially No end summer, maybe it's love affair >
I wanted to add in, be sure to check out Cindy. Sadly, she’s no longer with us, but I feel her Music would have absolutely made urban radio in the US if she was given the chance. She even partnered with Stevie wonder on her music. And I feel her English is by far the best of all city pop artists. It’s nearly flawless and completely fluent
When I first listened to Stay with me it was only joy and happiness, but after knowing her tragic end, I wanted to hug her myself in the flesh and tell her she made priceless masterpieces that nothing can top on. She is a legend
I wished Miki didnt had to be so hard on herself like blaming herself for what happened to her.
本田 美奈子？
i haven't heard these songs for so long! seeing someone else also enjoying it is so refreshing and it brings back nostalgia
Did you listen to them when you were young?
If you want the best Jpop/citypop artist look up an artist named Akina Nakamori, this artist has so much versatility in her songs, albums, and performances. Her songs Jukkai, meu amore, desire, and tango noir, are definitely some songs worth checking out
man this was such a feel good video. i'm glad i clicked on this. jamming out with you guys was a good start to my morning
We are too, Good morning ! Have a great day 🌞
I know about City Pop genre in Japan way back like so long time ago. I am very glad that this genre have given a recognition outside Japan. I am happy that you guys are listening those songs :)
I've been listening to this kinda music for a long time. This 80's japanese pop, is awesome.
Loved this video
I love it so much “City Pop” the vibe is Amazing ❤️✨
What I see is that you aren't a rap fans. You are a real music fans. Bravo 👐🏽
ありがとう！CITY POPを聴いてくれて💛
私もRAP大好きだよ！！
🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
I absolutely love Tatsuro Yamashita so this reaction makes me very happy ^^
City pop is one of those genres that just always brings you up whenever you listen, especially Tatsuro catalogue, his albums go crazy
Dude this was so fun to watch, i would 100% recommend airport lady, spacescraper, and City of silver gray for a next video, i'm 100% sure ya'll will love it as they're all amazing songs. Also, from tatsuro yamashita, you could listen to sparkle, loveland island, and daydream. I wish the best for ya'll keep enjoying and increasing this epic genre's reach!
literally luv city pop. induces insane serotonin 😭
also one of my favourite artists is junko ohashi. y’all should check her out.
So cool to see city pop getting some love from all over the musical spectrum. Great stuff lads🍻
I love city pop! The sounds are so refined, with attention to detail. Above all I like that veil of melancholy that always shines through. Have you already listened to Taeko Ohnuki? I recommend Mignonne, a beautiful album
I'm happy to have started on City Pop as a kid in the 90s, it allowed me to own some really rare gems on vinyl and CD that are basically impossible to find these days for any less than several hundred dollars to even over a thousand dollars. I'm happy that the resurgence and new popularity is giving new found wealth to many of these artists or their estates and even some re-releases have come out of it.
It’s such feel good music! I’m a prek teacher and I play Michelle Phan’s city pop playlist for them 🖤
Shout out to you for exposing the kiddies to some quality music 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
I LOVE CITY POP.
It’s sooo goood!!!!
Awesome video! Love city pop. Definitely recommend the entirety of Takako Mamiya's "Love Trip" album. Anything by Tatsuro, Meiko Nakahara, and Taeko Ohnuki is great as well. There's soooo much more too haha
Im so glad there's spotlight to tatsuro here! He's one of my favorite artists ever and i consider him as the king of City pop lmao. His songs are just amazing
This awesome! Here are some suggestions if you do more of these reacting to City Pop videos
Shiawasenomonosashi - Mariya Takeuchi
4:00 A.M. - Taeko Onuki
Sunset - BLU-SWING
Dress Down - Kaoru Akimoto
Neon - Yukika
Makes me feel good to see people loving this. I got all kinds of flak for listening to this when I was young.
I cried at midnight when u guys truly enjoyed the music.
Please dive into more CityPOP songs ~
I had lived in Japan for 19 years and not known the second song at all
How could I have missed this great song😂
10:33 LOVE that white headphone man. he real love that music and enjoy it
It’s music I’m very glad I discovered!
I appreciate you respect city pop. I grew up in Japan and my dad used to listen to city pop. These music bring back to so much memories. Thanks!
I swear more people need to find this amazing music. It's literally what I hear when I'm depressed to lift myself up.
The vibes you guys have are insane! love it ✨
When you’re genuinely enjoying yourself, the vibes hit different 💫💫
Thanks for reacting to City Pop!! My youngest daughter turned me on to it and that's all I listen to!!🔥🔥🔥It's a Whole Vibe 💓💓💓and Plastic Love is my favorite as well.
YES! City pop is vibes to the MAX, and we got a lot more of these on the way there are so many bangers 🔥
Magic Ways is legit my favorite song ever. It just makes me so happy and I sing it loudly cause I love it. The best song of my life indeed
It really goes to show that no matter what music youre into, what your specific vibe is; City pop will ALWAYS make you feel good and happy and adds a few minutes of peace into your life
Really glad to see the younger generation enjoying this music!!
es inevitable sonreir cuando suena Stay with me, que canción mas hermosa madre mia
City Pop has been around for decades and is a deep dive! One of the best at it is Casiopea although they’re an all instrumental band. Influenced many! Been a fan of this genre since the early 2000’s when I was in high school. It transports you to a special place every time
Fallen Angels, and Wong Kar Wai films are just best cinema so glad y’all enjoyed Plastic Love
I KNEW SOMEONE WOULD KNOW WHAT I WAS TALKING ABOUT!!! AAAAAASHSHDJNFJFKK
don’t mind me, City Pop & WKW just gets me pumped🤣 - cool.hands
This was a wholesome vibe. Super fun watching you guys just chill to these. They're 3 of my favorite City Pop songs.
I recommend Bay City by Junko Yagami. There's an extended version too.
BAY CITY OMG I FORGOT ABT THAT ONE💕💕
I can’t believe those songs were from 40 years ago!? They sounds very sophisticated and so cool even now. I used to listen them at my teenage years back in high school in Japan.
first time I heard City Pop music was through anime, Yu Yu Hakusho and a lot of 90s anime had that city pop vibe to it so when youtube became a thing in 2006 I found old tracks in a deep dive
Ahhhhh my favorite genre of music !!! Genuine gems through and through, citypop really is just so amazing !!! About these songs being sampled/used, you are right !! Known for “vaporwave” sounds, y’all should check out future funk music !! Like macross, nanidato, and many others !! Some songs I recommend are talk about love by naito, fun tonight by macross, and it’s good to see you again by adrianwave !! Ofc if you’re all able to, as I’m not sure how the whole process is like. But yeah !! Little niche genres like this need more love
Agreed! Future Funk is pretty sick too! Thank you for watching. If you're not subbed, definitely sub because we have more City Pop on the way for sure
Seeing city pop blow up like this is still shocking to me. Awesome
I'd always heard of City Pop but never thought to give it listen until more recently. I've started rewatching some of my favorite retro anime from the 80's, where quite a few opening songs are easily inspired by City Pop. I've been listening to Takeuchi Mariya on repeat for a few weeks now and I think I'm in love. Lol
Music (as well as other art forms) allows those with the most open of hearts to transcend trivial things like skin color and hate. Take care y'all. 🍍
Man, you really know good shit. Big wave is also my favorite city pop. Because I love that album so I watched the documentary. The music is completely amazing with the visuals. It’s very different than only audio. That music tells the story with the video.
Especially the one “your eyes”, that’s one of my favorite songs in the documentary. The first time I heard this song I just thought it’s simply a love song. But when I saw the documentary, I realized it’s a kind of love to something you try so hard and even when you failed a lot of times, but every day when you wake up you will still doing it until you make it.
Dude highly recommend this documentary, it’s amazing!
Magic Ways is from the soundtrack to Big Wave movie. It is the most 80s movie I've ever seen. The soundtrack is entirely in English and is epic.
Tatsuro has soooo many good songs, here are some that I like
-Loveland Island
-Mermaid
-Kokiatsu Girl
-Let’s Kiss the Sun
-Only with You
-Daydream
-Love Space
-Odoro yo fish
-Wind Corridor
-The Door into Summer
-Kokiatsu Girl special version
@@ichijo320 damn can’t believe I forgot door into summer, also yeah the special version of Kokiatsu is even better
Don't forget Baby Queen and Storm!
Morning Glory ❤️
yesss!! those three are some of top premium city pop songs
Man... that Plastic Love song is soooo gooood. I can't get enough!
City pop deserve more recognition
I will recommend for you guy to dive more into Miki's Music it's so beautiful
And for those who can't understand Japanese..., Its a Sad song 😹
It’s top tier music, I thoroughly enjoy it. I’m definitely down to do a part 2 to this series
@@WM20s i would love to see you guys react to her " Cryin' and Manhattan Wind" live performance
Here's the link
th-cam.com/video/X8F3ZZqU7f0/w-d-xo.html
can you recommend me some of your favorite Mitski's songs? :)
Great vid, I just love watching people enjoying music together. Meiko Nakahara is also a great option, I really want to see you guys react to Fantasy and Dancing in the memories
I enjoyed this video big city pop fan glad to see y’all boys enjoying this bop
The logical next step from city pop is some jazz fusion! If you ever do a part 2 of reacting to city pop, might be fun to sneak a track from a band like Casiopea in there!
Don't sleep in those 80s shoujo and mech openings they slap
I love this genre so much. Some of my personal favorite artists that weren’t talked about here would probably be takeo onuki(4:00am and tokai and the rest of the sunshower album are godly), Anri (the whole timely album is the best and the rest of her music is just so good too. Definitely one of the best city pop artists out there.), makoto matsushita (the whole first light album is just great), Yurie kokubu (just a joke and the rest of the songs on that album are fantastic), Meiko nakahara (she doesn’t have any of her music on Spotify but her song fantasy is probably my favorite song in the whole genre. Her other stuff is utterly fantastic too. She also has an interesting story behind her. At least to me.), junko yagami ( bay city is just fantastic and the whole rest of her repertoire is so freaking good), Tagkako mamiya (love trip is just way too good of a listen. I really wish she made more music or at least put her stuff on Spotify) and Toshiki kadomatsu (he’s also not on Spotify from my knowledge but space scraper and many other songs of his are just bangers). There are so many other great city pop artists and I keep finding new ones all the time! It always makes my day to find a new one. It always feels like I’m being transported to the beach on a sunny day or on a night drive through the city with bright pink and blue lights starting to pop up on the skyscrapers around. It’s just the best feeling for me. I really hope other people can get into this genre too so they can get this feeling so I hope these recommendations helps anyone looking for some great tunes from the genre.
I have enjoyed seeing your reaction guys, you really infected me with your good vibes, I subscribe.
Greetings from Spain.
Yessss omg this genre is like my favorite! Citypop songs are just so so good and it’s like an endless collection of BOPS! I find it best for summer days. The vibes are immaculate. And Tatsuro Yamashita is my favorite Citypop artist. He’s literally CRACKED! All of his albums: CRACKED.
Here are some of my favorite songs:
-Tatsuro Yamashita: Ride on Time, Bomber, Love Talkin ‘Honey it’s you’, Love Space, Bomber, Daydream, Your Eyes (he has SOOOO many good songs so ill stop here 😭)
-Mariya Takeuchi: Continuation of a dream
-Anri (another banger artist! All her albums are amazing!): Lady Sunshine, Remember Summer Days, Driving My Love, Last Summer Whisper
-Makoto Matsushita: Love Was Really gone
-Taeko Onuki: 4:00am
-Meiko Nakahara: Private Beach

OKAY I did not mean for this list to be so long but u must understand I tried picking from my 12 hour long citypop playlist 💀💀 These are not all the songs but some of my absolute favorites! Any one of these you can’t go wrong with!
大好きな曲です！字幕付きだともっと楽しめたのになー！日本の音楽はいい曲沢山ありますよ😊英語がわからないのが悔しい😂
Please do more City Pop! I enjoyed seeing your reactions.
Magic Ways is one my all time favs! Got into "City Pop" 10+ years ago due to Japanese Hip Hop sampling. My most popular upload is by PSG (Punpee aka Sugbabe*, Slack and Gapper) that samples Original Love's "I Wish" and recently they did a updated version with the band.
With 80s US RnB, Funk, etc producers, collabs and..."inspiration" creating songs that sound like what many heard as kids in your parent's car hearing them looping back to the US/West is a wild ride of double nostalgia and who did what first. Ex. Takeuchi's "Oh No Oh Yes" and Bobby Brown's "Rock Wit'cha", her song was released before his so 🤷🏿♀️
Got an endless list of artists but main one I don't see listed enough is Kimiko Kasai, "Mmm mmm Good" alone is an experience and Cindy's album Angel Touch is all RnB/New Jack Swing bops I especially love "Must Be Lucky". I could go on for hours lol.
*Sugar Babe was the band Tasturo Yamashita and Taeko Ohnuki (another popular singer) were in, his name is a homage to that.
I just listen to this song earlier today, it's crazy, it really gives off nice feeling and nostalgia
You could/should react to Tatsuro Yamashita's _Let's Kiss the Sun._ It's even more "summer vibes". Also, Anri's _Windy Summer._ Both pretty nice.
(Please thumbs up if you'd also like to see it!)
