Fishmans, because that live is amazing and legendary (probably found it in some comment on some other obscure song on Youtube). And also anime movies from big name studios and directors. I don't know more than 3 words in Japanese and it's probably for the best. Easier to enjoy and make up my own lyrics based on the feel I get from a song.
PS. I'd appreciate if more of you used links for the media you mention in comments (to your favorite song if it's an artist, movie, etc), it's easier to expand the knowledge by just middle-clicking than copy-pasting, and also easier for those like me that don't know any Japanese - searching in hiragana / katakana isn't easy
I've added some links! Tried to go for something iconic/representable on my fav list and tried to choose one with MV if possible. Koda Kumi got 2, an iconic one and the specific one mentioned. I skipped AKB48 since I don't listen to that so I can't really choose something iconic and representable for their style as well and I don't want to do them dirty.
Springsteen isn't Japanese at all, but I added a link for the sake of it.
Also added 2 more artists, because why not.
