Beauty4123 5th March 2008 03:54 AM

no kuuu...:( i bet the scandal killed her chance of getting at least one award, lol.

polka-dot-jewel 5th March 2008 03:59 AM

Good list! It sucks Ayu couldn't be up there more but, hey, at least she's up there! =D

Luv ~Venus~ 5th March 2008 04:09 AM

You don't actually believe that do you Beauty? :( Yeah, I would have at least thought she would have won for BUT and Ai no Uta since it was claimed to her most popular songs of last year. :sdevil

Yay for Hikki! :breakdanc She won a lot of awards this year. It's been a long time since she racked up that many awards. I just she had won for Kiss&Cry. Why doesn't anyone like that song? Usually she'd win something for her R&B songs. :bounce Oh, well! Yay, Hikki!!!

Yay for Avril and Ne-yo! :clapclap :clapclap It was such a great year for them. Both albums were awesome especially Because of You!<~ I'm totally in love with that album. :tipsy

Beauty4123 5th March 2008 04:14 AM

i was just kidding, lol, but it's strange that kuu didn't get at least one award. it just looks fishy. :P

milky_way 5th March 2008 04:23 AM

Ugh, Japan sure loves them some Avril DDD:

Luv ~Venus~ 5th March 2008 04:32 AM

^YOU DON'T LIKE THE ALL-MIGHTY AVRIL, MILKY? :OMG YOU SHALL BE DESTROYED! :rambo

nah, I'm jokin' of course! Still, why no luv for her? <~That question wasn't directed towards you. Her albums are GUUD! :tipsy Ugh, I worship her first album <~ I forgot the name tho. :lmfao

@Beauty: Yea. It's suspicious. Hmm...WE SHOULD PROTEST GDA! :bringit

milky_way 5th March 2008 04:52 AM

I liked her second album, but after 'Girlfiriend,' my fandom for her died.

Neo Daydream 5th March 2008 04:59 AM

Yay Arashi, NEWS, Ayu, and Utada! ^^

summersnow 5th March 2008 06:21 AM

Well this award is entirely based on sales so it wouldn't have gotten award.

Thinking about it, I don't think she would've gotten an award even without the incident since she didn't release anything big last year...

DeepRiver 5th March 2008 06:37 AM

Yeah Hikki !!!

KuroixShiroi_Namida 5th March 2008 06:49 AM

Thanks for the list. Go ayu, ai, hikki ;D!

Jwiz 5th March 2008 06:50 AM

ahh that's the list i wanted to see...ayu should work extra hard on her new singles, which fail to hit 200k and above since Blue Bird..

And why Black Cherry is not in the top 10 albums?

AyuGAME 5th March 2008 07:03 AM

Kobayashiwoof 5th March 2008 10:17 AM

KarenPang 5th March 2008 10:46 AM

KarenPang 5th March 2008 10:48 AM
