These links lead mostly to other good lyrics archives and sites that helped me find discography, etc information for each category of the site.
If you would like to link to ME, I would be more than appreciative! An email to let me know isn't necessary, but I'd love to know you plan to link me, and there's a good chance I'll link you back in return.
You can either link to the general site ( http://freckle.tenkeimedia.com/nl/index.php ) using the title "Nostalgic Lavender" (please spell lavender right! There's an e at the end! *laughs*), or you can link to one of the subcategories for each artist, using that artist's index page (example: http://freckle.tenkeimedia.com/nl/riefu/index.html ) and the title, for example, "Nostalgic Lavender// Rie Fu." Thank you!

Where To Buy
CDJapan- good site to buy Japanese music through. You get points with each thing you buy, which gets you a discount on your next purchase. Also, their customer service is legendary (for being amazing). My preferred site to order CDs from
YesAsia - another good place to buy (but not as good as CDJapan)
Amazon Japan - not only a way to purchase albums (you can set the site to be in English), but also a good place to get tracklistings and album covers!
Amazon.com - the original
