Answer 2

Ooh, you'll love 古里おさむ, ルルティア and maybe some 宇多田ヒカル. They're some of my favorites (especially ルルティア) and their music is so relaxing.

ルルティア and 古里おさむ would be great to listen to on instrumental, and maybe 宇多田ヒカル too. I dunno, 宇多田ヒカル's voice is awesome - it would be missed in the instrumentals. ALL of their voices are great!

EDIT: Since other people are providing videos, I'll do the same.

Happy listening!

Kanjani 8 (hmm..not so familiar but "Wahaha" is a cute song.. -->>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JmIDqFfCD...

NEWS! (like someone else said, Weeeek is a pretty happy song to listen to, but i like almost all of their songs, Summer Time is a really relaxing song, but it still has an  upbeat tempo, here -->> )
