    My favorite Japanese song is probably an older one from the 70s by a group called Kaientai. Not quite sure if they're still even performing together or not, but the song is pretty awesome, it's been covered a few times, but my favorite is the original since it has a rather nice folksy feel to it and the singer emotes wonderfully. The song itself is called Okuru Kotoba, which roughly translates to "Sending You Parting Words" if you keep the intent.

    My 'favorites' vary from time to time. Right now though are the following:

    Time after Time - Mai Kuraki
    Tenkuu no Canaria - Nana Mizuki
    Toori Ame - Wiz Us
    Starry Heavens - Day after Tomorrow

    . . . I seem to have a liking to Japanese songs that start with 'T'. xD;

    I do not know any of their names, to be honest, but I enjoyed a lot of anime openings and endings. Durarara!!'s opening is probably the best Japanese soundtrack I've heard for an anime.

    I love any version of Hatsune Miku's Last Night, Good Night or Love Is War, especially some of the covers by the NicoNico folk such as Choucho and Usa.

    I'm also exceedingly fond of K-ON! music such as No, Thank You! and Don't Say 'Lazy'.

    My favourite, though, is Lia's My Soul, Your Beats! from Angel Beats!. Epic song. Actually, most of the music in AB! is epic, especially Karuta's version of Ichiban no Takaramono.

    It has to be a tie between More by Koda Kumi or Devil Inside/Animato by Utada.

    This is one of the greatest videos ever. (Song isn't bad either. :P)

    The singer is actually a retired MMA fighter.
