What are your favorite Jrock/Jpop songs that came out during the 2000s?

    I am starting to feel a bit nostalgic so I am wondering what are some of your favorite Jpop/Jrock songs that came out between 2000-2009?


    Here are some of mine (I tried to limit myself to one song per artist)


    Jrock:

    L'arc-En-Ciel (2004)

    I remember that Momusu song. Momusu in the 2000s was something special. I remember watching their performance of My Dear Boy on Heyx3

    Brilliant Green was really good and Miyavi hasn't really aged very much. I remember when he was still in PS Company

    The only acts active in the 2000s I've actively listened to are L'Arc~en~Ciel, FLOW, Asian Kung-Fu Generation, Scandal and Kalafina. Yes, I was to introduced to them by anime.

    I'm going to select two favorite artists that actually debut before the 2000's but had amazing music in the decades.


    I'm going to out myself as an AMURA - been a huge Amuro stan since 1996 lol. I miss her since her retirement but I still play her entire discography often since her music is comfort for me. I think everyone knows of her but it's a shame that newer fans will not get a chance to see her LIVE in concert, because that's where she truly shined. Her discography starting from PLAY (2007) until Genic (2015) was so amazingly fun and diverse.


    One of my other all time favorite Japanese artist/musician that is both Jpop and J-rock is Cocco. She's been around since the 90's too (and also from Okinawa) + still going strong, with a new album released this year, called PROM. Such an outstanding discography - I hope you can check her out if you haven't. I'll just link 3 of my favorites among her vast discography:
