I'm really digging Misia right now. She has an amazing voice, the productions on her songs are top-notch, and there are even some good House remixes of her available.
Misia - Melody:
(the MAW remix of this track is amazing!)
There are some other female singers that I think are really good:
Utada Hikaru (she has a lot of good music out besides what was done for Kingdom Hearts.)
Ayumi Hamasaki (More for the production than the singing IMO. Her voice can get a little 'squeaky' on high notes)
Koda Kumi
Boa (depends on the track)
Bada (a good Korean singer. Hard to find her material [see below])
S.E.S (this is the group that Bada used to be in before they disbanded. Eugene and Shoo were the other two singers. Lots of catchy upbeat songs came from this group, but again their stuff is HTF)
Faye Wong (most know her from 'Eyes On Me', the love theme of Final Fantasy VIII, but she has a lot of good downtempo material as well. Chinese singer)
and some guys I would recommend:
Ken Hirai (really good R&B from this guy)
Gackt (Pop-Rock)
T.M Revolution
I'm having some trouble tracking down stuff by Bada, specifically her 1st and 2nd albums (oddly enough, her 3rd album can be bought off of iTunes). This is why I'm trying to track the older albums down:
Thanks in advance for the help. I'll try to help track down your HTF asian Pop as well ;)

no such thing as "asian" pop. there's k-pop (korean) and j-pop (japanese).
fair enough if it doesn't suit your tastes. some of it though s on a lot of US pop that's charting at the moment, imo.
