Absolute favorites of mine: Younha (prefer her Korean songs, but Beat motion was the first encounter), Ikimono Gakari (I like everything, Sakura was first I saw and the earlier live perf was awesome! Latest songs are even better though. Hanabi will always be special to me), Lee Sun-hee (come back! I never thought I would be so sure of which voice I liked the best!), Yui (I really liked "Life", which was first I saw of her. But then I had to wait some time before her songs got really good. With "punk rock" she got there!), Utada Hikaru (she has always had a gift not only for singing but also composing beautiful songs! The best album in my opinion is actually her latest album, I love all the songs, something that seldom happens to me! Fantastic!)

Favorites of mine: Ayaka ("I believe" in all thou respect, but her later songs has swept my feet), Cocco (she grows on me, fantastic singer), Yuki Kajiura (big fan of the NOIR Soundtrack!)

And I also like (sometimes): AAA (talented, not to be underestimated... although the concept doesn't turn me on), Lee Jung Hyun (some awesome songs, my first favorite was her breakthrough song though), Otsuka Ai (like her acustic live perf, and with time I have even started to like the silly kid songs), Big Bang (their minialbum Always is awesome), Wonder Girls (some), chatmonchy (staring to like them more and more), Alan (she has big potential, and has a really nice album out now)

Interesting: May Doni (I can't wait for her real breakthrough! Her debut as a feature was awesome!)

Superfly (an awesome singer. Her "Spy spy" is nice, and her new High five!)

And too many other to mention, and I am constantly exploring new grounds. Btw, I didn't bother to mention the outside world of Asia :p Ofcourse there are awesome music even from my Country.
