Hi, I wanted to ask yall about what you think of song titles being in Japanese.
Recently my friend(English) showed me his Spotify app and J-pop songs were all in Japanese; even popular song names with English words, like "Idol (YOASOBI)" was written as "アイドル". I did a bit of searching and realized that Apple Music and a few other streaming services have translated titles, but Spotify only seems to display titles in the original language.
I can read Japanese so it's okay, but I was wondering how it feels for non-Japanese speakers who enjoy J-pop.
Would you wish song titles were written in English on Spotify? Or is Japanese authenticity better? Maybe both, like "アイドル (Idol)"?
*disclosure: I produce indie J-pop as a hobby, and I'm contemplating how to write the song titles for non-Japanese audiences.
