What do you guys think of almost completely Engrish songs? I've seen a lot of people complain about it, but...I really don't mind it, in fact I really enjoy it. Some people complain that they're Japanese artists so they should sing in Japanese, but I don't think that's quite fair, there are some artists that try to do it to become closer to their English speaking fans. Although there are some artists who use Engrish just to sound cool, I like the outreaching gesture which has been shown by many artists like Nami Tamaki (when she was still new to the Jpop scene, she did Otakon I believe with T.M. Rev. and tried her best to speak to the fans in English and said she'd try to get better), L'Arc~en~Ciel (they not only did Spirit Dreams Inside, but they also did a lot of English interaction at their U.S. concert), Psycho le Cemu (who performed an English skit on their recent tour) and many others.
Engrish Songs I Like
"Summer Days" by Do As Infinity

L'Arc~en~Ciel + Hyde (although Hyde's English I swear is getting worse, when I first watched the FF movie, I had no idea it was them)
The Brilliant Green
Rie Fu
Ellegarden
