(+) This means that the plays keep raising.





keep in mind that this doesn't mean how many listeners the singers have, talking about the number of listeners its a different story ;)

I will publish the top 20 by number of listeners soon too! :D





I found this very funny! Because I thought that koda kumi and namie amuro would be third and fourth, and also many people talks bad about ayu and she still tops the charts all the time etc ^^



feel free to comment about this information! :D





EDIT: I picked the most popular Jpop female singers that I know for this! so if you know/found any other female artist with more plays than any of this listed here, please tell me and show me and I will put them up ;)

thats to be expected o.O when I myself listened to 50+ayu songs everyday:D

Awesome Ayu....

I wonder why there's no Ayaka in the list. she is very popular atm

do you count both ayu accounts?

theres others but they dont have many plays
so yea

YUI is so popular, its unbelievable

true! Ayaka will be included with 433,560 plays ^^

Very cool stats!

Somehow I think the Hikki fans here will start looping their plays of her songs to beat Ayu though :P

That's a lot of plays for these artists. I looked for Seiko Matsuda and she has something like 183,215 plays across two accounts! Ayu and Hikki have loooooooots of listeners! o_O

Maybe she seems less fake than some of the other artist like kuu or hikki

yeah (i dont listen to hikki nor kuu) but her music is boring imo too

Interesting! I still don't get how last.fm works though :P

ayaka has way more plays than that. That is if you include the 絢香 (correct way to tag her imo) account.

絢香 495,243 plays
ayaka 433,560 plays

Did you know the other ayumi hamasaki has

"431,768 plays (14,287 listeners)"?

Ya for Ayu & Kuu!!! ^_^
Sowelu should be there as well 411,353 plays (18,625 listeners) .

I'm sooo happii to see alan at #19 and I hope her position will continue to rise!!! But Yuna-chan makes me a little sad, she deserves to enter at least TOP 10.... >.<

oo pretty good! i'm surprised namie isn't in the top 3 with the other jpop queens ~ :P

but i'm happy to see alan at #19, haha i helped with 3,481 plays :roflmao

yuna ito should have around 700k plays, since people use her romanized tag as well.

btw, miliyah kato has 325,504 plays :yes

and maki goto has 483,084.

upps.. sorry.. I didnt see it carefully.. LOL

thanks for heads up

oh my.. tats so great.. Ayu Top again at this =)...

damn, which that we have last.fm in malaysia
