I was always under the impression that the two types of enka mentioned here were the same. What's the difference? - Sekicho
- Confusing article, yes. I will do some research and improve it. -Himasaram 13:38, 2 Jun 2005 (UTC)
Isn't there some voice modulation used in enka to express the emotions? Almost like yodeling. I was surprised to see no mention of it.72.65.85.35 07:06, 7 July 2006 (UTC)enka fan
[edit] Accuracy of artist list
Against popular belief, Japanese enka does NOT equal contemporary (i.e. non-Japanese pop) music. Artists like Akiko Wada and Ken Matsudaira are not enka artists; they sing contemporary Japanese music, which should never be mixed up with enka. The style of enka is very specific.
