BEST ARTIST 2008

Who do you think is the best artist this year? I think this year was a big year in music, overall. Although physical sales still decline, the quality of music never does.

So who is it? The Prisoner of Love Utada? ROCK STEADY Amuro? Mirrorcle Ayu? May be the GIFTed Mr. Children?

Utada Hikaru...because heartstation was just omg amazing.

although i've been listening to namie more and more and i really like her...i'm extremely selective when it comes to her songs, and honestly...from best fiction, i only liked about 4 or 5 songs on the album, and theres only like 3 i really listen to on a daily basis.

So sorry, forgot Ayaka. >.<

But I think many of them were the best in a certain way (GND for Kouhaku like, 3 months after their debut?!), so yeah.

Hamasaki Ayumi (GUILTY, MW, GREEN/Days, which I love... and touring? XD)
GIRL NEXT DOOR (3 great singles, album on its way, great PVs...)
Suzuki Ami (2 great albums!)
alan (a whole bunch of great singles)
Takasugi Satomi (a really nice album and one of my favorite singles of the year, RELATION)
Yuna Ito (a great album, miss you and Koi wa groovyx2 are awesome singles)

Other:
+ GReeeeN! For their epic 2nd album.
+ ayaka! For her epic 2nd album, too XD and her 2nd epic Kobu-collaboration.
+ Anna Tsuchiya. Go, NUDY SHOW!, gooooo~

...and there's probably more... but there's no way I'll remember everything... I probably already have too many 'best artists of 2008' anyway... XD

Ami Suzuki
Anna Tsuchiya
and Namie Amuro
