Wiki'ing the last one (that song is lovely, btw) Shikata Akiko appears to also be a singer-songwriter and composer who plays multiple instruments. So more like Vienna Teng.
Vienna Teng/Norah Jones =/= Katy Perry/Ke$ha, is what I'm saying. The former just write music, some of which happens to be popular. The latter do pop music. You like the Japanese version of the former. Which is awesome!

...This is not pop, for example. In other news, I have a new composer from whom to buy all the CDs! Thank you, DA!
