I often listen to jrock (high and mighty color, one ok rock, back on, b'z), Chinese/Taiwan hits (五月天),afrobeats and amapiano , and songs from across Latin America and Europe. Seems insane to me to just stop at the border.

Damn, I haven't heard of High and Mighty Color in such a long time. They did an anime OP right? Can't remember for what though... The singer is my cousin's cousin. Not to sound like a creep, but she was incredibly pretty and charismatic when I had the chance to meet her.

There were two singers, one during their heyday and another briefly before they split I believe. I was actually at their final show. The song you're thinking of is Ichirin no Hana from bleach. Amazing is one of the best examples of their music: https://youtu.be/fKOREz_XMus

I heard B’z’s Friction through Burnout Paradise. What a choon

Shout-out for C-pop (Faye Wong has a sweet spot for me) and indie J-pop, Shibuya-kei - ever listened to Pizzicato Five and the Fishmans?

Disclosure: I'm Eastern European and, although I grew up with mostly Anglo-American music, I listen nowadays to music from literally almost everywhere in the world (though most often I focus on African and Asian music). Funnily, I don't listen to much music from my own country, guess I'm oikophobic. If I were born in the US, I might have nearly "stopped at the border" though, because the US certainly had many musicians doing almost everything you can imagine.
