Saw that too. Total domination on all ages. I approve what the 30 and 40 age group voted. Most of those artists are my favorite. Kyoko Koizumi was super popular, if you watch Japanese TV from 80's it's no rare sight to see her name mentioned, music played in the background, or posters visible on the wall. She was more or less everywhere. She also has a open and fun personality. Not to forget that she is still active. Momoe, well she is
the legend. It's impressive that the 20 year olds group voted her in the top 3. It's a fact that she retired a good 10+ years before they were even born.
Only two days till
Cherish album release. There has been next to none promotion. Except for the track "Arigatou" which was played on radio three weeks ago. I can reveal that it is a ballad song.
