まいあさ、ぼくは　おきます　くじ。
こんあさ、ぼくは　あさごはんをたべません。
つぎ、そう　くらすに　きます。　ごごよじ、ぼくは　うちへかえります。
ぼくは　ねます　ごごじゅういちじ。

Another Japanese artist I forgot to mention, of whom I'm sure you're all familiar, is Utada Hikaru. The songs I enjoy in particular are Simple and Clean, Sanctuary, and First Love.

I really like the way that the Japanese language sounds, especially when it's being sung. I first started listening to Japanese artists ever since I heard some of their songs from the J-dramas I watched. The artists I listen to the most are Remioromen and The Blue Hearts. Of course, I don't understand what is being sung, but I still like the way everything sounds. And for the songs I listen to, I always look up the lyrics.

I love the way that many of the song's lyrics are written. They're all very poetic. I think that, being an English major, I really appreciate these artists' music for their rhetoric. I suggest you listen to the song "3 Gatsu 9 ka" by Remioromen. Here's a nice acoustic cover of the song that I like very much. March 9th.
Also, here are the lyrics to that song.

Another thing that I love about Japan are cherry blossom trees. I think they're very beautiful, and would love to see them some day in Japan while they're in season. The last time I went to Washington D.C., I saw cherry blossoms while they were in full bloom. But even then, in real life, they didn't measure up to the Japanese cherry blossoms that I've seen only in pictures.
