Listening to old songs from the 80’s and 90’s era from Japan is a very breathtaking experience. Something about Japanese culture in general, is beautiful in such a way that I can’t fully describe. I’ve never traveled to Japan before, yet I’ve had this strong desire for many long years to do so. The music in Japan somehow takes me on a journey to a place where my soul is filled with good vibes and endless amount of happiness. I’m always that guy that recommends various artists in Japan from those two era’s because I am somewhat well versed on City Pop music, and so forth.

As long as I live, I will continue to listen to Japanese music due to the positive benefits it has had on my life. For one, I am a lot more happier when I listen to the majority of songs from those two era’s that puts me in a motivated state on accomplishing my goals, and staying true to my purpose in life. Secondly, through listening to Japanese music I’ve developed a new hobby which is dancing. I am like the king of dancing whenever an 80’s and 90’s song plays either on YouTube or on my radio (songs from the U.S., France, and Japan). And lastly, I also have a new hobby of keeping track of various albums/ artists, so that they won’t be forgotten in the future.

There are some artists in Japan from those eras that never grew popular over the years, however, I strongly still believe that they’re wonderful and gifted artists that deserves a lot of love. That’s why I will always support their work when the world may never recognize their gift of touching the hearts of millions. There’s a reason why I recommend a lot of Japanese artists, so that they’ll be remembered and that their music will continue to inspire others in life.

More importantly, once I go to Japan, I will start buying and collecting record albums from the 80’s and 90’s era to share the good vibes with those that may need it the most. It doesn’t matter if you don’t understand the language, what truly matters is how the music speaks to you. The music from the past will always speak to my heart, and will forever be apart of who I am as a person. Thanks for reading!
