I like how Japanese rock music, even the poppy stuff, is more technical than most western music. It really makes for a nice listening experience. | ||

My thing about AKB48 is that Mr.Children most likely primarily sold that many cd's based on the substance of their music or musical ability, vs people most likely buying the CD for the voting thing or the cd booklet or whatever / seeing 20+ girls lol. At least Koda Kumi has a decent resemblance of ability when it comes to singing / dancing. But it's not surprising at all, and nowadays its a waste of time to really go indepth of the rankings of the Oricon chart. Meanwhile, I dont get the cd till like the 20th... T.T dance. It'll be worth it definitely if I don't see the single posted online SOMEWHERE in 20 days roflllllllll. *edit* I found it online rofllllllllllll. oh welllllll. | ||
