ok you have brought me back from the KR dead with this thread. I will look through my youtube favorites list and post some J-pop goodness for you and clotty.

First, some Anri:

Yoko Oginome:

Yuki Saito (our favorite LDS member):

More Yukiko Okada (the girl who killed herself by jumping from her record company building...) in the most perfect 80's idol pv ever...especially when it gets to the part with the bubbles.

More Seiko Matsuda goodness:

Akina Nakamori:

Will post more.
