^ Yes, this is a big factor. These days a lot of people just simply don't buy music anymore. The few that do are usually idol fans. I actually have nothing against idol music, I LIKE Idol music and have probably been to Hello Project concerts as much as I have Ayumi. My problem with this years top 100 is the total and utter lack of variety; almost every song sounds the same and is very generic. Very few of these songs are going to be remembered even a year from now.

Could I say that kind of top is frightening? Especially the top 3.
God, they're a lot of others artists that are 100xbetter than thoses boys & girls bands. |

Okay it's official. What seems in the last 2-3 years is popular in Japan is NOT what I enjoy. A few years back (mainly the 00's) I was enjoying so much that was hugely popular.
Instead of wasting 17 minutes and 20 seconds of your lives watching that video I'll break it down: 60 AKB48 songs 20 boybands who all sound the same 10 Gener-ock 10 decent tracks (mostly around 100-80 in the chart) Hardly any of these groups have any diversity in them, it's the same old, same old. And most of them are so cheesy and pay no attention to making a quality track with a beautiful composition (which is what I think Jpop is missing nowadays) |

I don't even know what to say about how disappointed I am.
I mean, I have a lot to say about a certain something but I'd just start a bunch of fights.

![]() I am a huge Arashi fan as well, but even I'll admit that most of their recent singles have been bland, bland, bland. You can still hear quality in their b-sides and album tracks but the singles, my gosh. It seems to be an industry wide epidemic these days of pushing the most bland material to the forefront.

Stupid moment for me when I first saw the video: where's Ayu? Then I remembered that she didn't release any singles in 2011.

single market is dead,move on tbh
proud the 48s are slaying! some of their songs are amazing, Queen Itano got the highest solo female single and yay Masha and Team Amuse ummm someone above made a mistake it is 30/100 are AKB related. 21/100 are JE related. 14/10 are hallyu related. and 35 are non-idols, anyway Oricon 100 isn't best reflection of what is popular, Miliyah, Kana, JUJU,Kuu are way more consumed musically then 2/3 of these people why idols sell so much is a whole other discussion so don't be too pressed

For a list that is of 100 songs from a single year, that is an absolutely HORRID ratio.

I'm glad to see YUI, UVERworld, Namie and some K-pop groups.
Obviously this year was for AKB48, their sub-ubits and sister groups. Good bye to solo artists, and welcome Idol Groups !!!

A lot of my music is from less known artists, indies and J-rock/pop-rock/whatever rock related. Makes me sad my favorite artists are on the bottom or not even on the list... So many idols... But I expected that.

All I see is Namie, alone and outnumbered by all the boy/girl groups. I'm scared D:

The only one I was happy to see was Namie..
Seriously, these PUT3LETTERS48 groups, Korean boybands are all gettin' on my nervers. Their music sounds all the same cra**y thing, and yet, they still sell like water. I'm just disgusted at how the music has become so bland and meaningless. God, and I still complain Ayu's music is nothing compared to her old works, but still better than all this s**t. -_- |
