HIGH and MIGHTY COLOR (a rock band) aren't as popular as they were when they debuted. Right now, people seems to be a lot more into urban or mellow rock like YUI, ayaka, Kobukuro... Pop is slowing fading away.

namie is going the creative and ever changing style of music, while new comers like ayaka, YUI are going the simple yet new/refreshing style of music..
ayu is just going the same flashy, high-production, depressing lyrics, emotional songs, fancy PVs she did for years and years....
when you do something the same for too long a time, it's normal for ppl to get bored and uninterested with it, it's reality...
