I much appreciate your comment to the labels on my music.
I agree with you. I should probably try to think various ways and put accurate labels.
But I always put J-Pop on them.
Because they are sung in Japanese, and we have no custom to divide music strictly by jenre.
Most of the general popular songs in Japan are released as J-Pop.

Best regards.

What a beautiful song Shigeki. The vocal was very pretty. Such an elegant singer. The backtrack was absolutely stunning. This song just doesn't sound good it makes you feel good. Well done.
