English-language music

While I only listen to it ocasionally (J-Pop took over my immortal soul after hearing Utada Hikaru), does anyone like English-language tunes? Some of my favorites are Nelly Furtado, Bjork, Timbaland, M.I.A., Coldplay, Kate Nash, Lily Allen, some Madonna, and Nine Inch Nails, but I've got a large range of genres (except bad rap and country). What are yours?

Of the current crop of English language artists you can't do better than KT Tunstall.

I listen to heaps of English language music, I own a bigger variety of it than I do Japanese, but I have so much and I gain and lose interest and then gain interest again it's hard to make a list unless I list everything and I'd be here all day. I know everyone says it but seriously, I do listen to almost everything, I have CDs from almost every genre. I do like most of what you listed though Donovon.

I listen to loads of English Music, as long as it's not one of those songs that use a single hand-clap on EVERY verse just to get the beat going...

Almost everytime you turn on the radio there's a song like that though... And it's those songs that are popular I'll listen to every genre as long as the song is good and unique...

By the way, one of the artists I listen to is in my sig ;D

I do like to listen to English Music, Some of my favorite songs are "Into The Ocean" by Blue October, "Hide and Seek" by Imogen Heap, "Nobody's Home" by Avril Lavigne, "Rainbow Warriors" by CocoRosie, "Heaven" by DJ Sammy, "What Hurts The Most" by Cascada, "Bleeding Love" by Leona Lewis, "It's like that" by Mariah Carey, and well I have many more lol

I too listen to just about everything. Really, I do.

Years ago I listened to nothing but hard rock and metal. Years before then it was just rap and top 40.

Artists I like are:

Linkin Park (I was a fan of them since the very beginning, kind of embarrassed to say I am now since they are too mainstream)

Disturbed
Jack Johnson
Jason Mraz
Michael Buble

pretty much a little of this and that from a bunch of artists/genres

Would snares / percussion count?

Ohh!! Like, uh, yeah! Like Lipgloss! ~My lipgloss is poppin' my lipgloss be cool!... What chyou know bout me? what chyou what chyou know?~

Hahaha! Classic. I think I listen to pop just because it's the only way to be cool at parties. I like a lot of what you guys like: Coldplay ( The Escapist, shouldn't be a bonus)
Immi (her new album is out in SEPTEMBER )
Foo Fighters are pretty fly
Josh Groban has himself a few hot songs
Blink 182 forever
Aerosmith
THE WHO baby
Greenday anyone?
And.. my secret obsession

I think don't think snares and percussions really bother me. What's your opinion though

As long as it doesn't sound like the claps in Lip Gloss, then I like it XD

I love Enya too! Some songs from Hikki has the same kind of feel.

I might like an English artist for a while but then I lose interest, so really, English music comes in and comes out like a fad for me.

I don't think a language barrier should be there. English, Japanese, Korean, Italian... It all mixes together for me. I think, in a few regions though, certain sounds stay. There a... a certain darkness, I think Hikki calls it, in Japanese music that has stayed there since ancient times and a sort of brightness that has been with America since the revolution.

i only listen to those "worthy" listenin to...

english music specially the new ones, kinda suck for havnig brainless, simplistic lyrics

the only english groups ive been hooked on recently is coldplay because of viva la vida...which is a bad@$$ song btw...lol..three days grace and daughtry...notthing else really catches my interest...

Okay, okay, alright, okay. I think I'm going crazy with obsession but click here and flip forward to 4:00.

I love Immi and Utada's making a new CD and trying to make it in English speaking countries. Ehhh? Maybe?
