Pretty interesting lineup for this year with the top two positions being held by non-Japanese artists. I just wonder if young Japanese women sported day-glo headbands, ripped sweatshirts and leggings because of "Flashdance". Two Queens: the Queen of New Music and the Queen Aidoru held up their end, but they were trumped by the Mick Jagger of aidoru, Akina Nakamori with no fewer than 3 albums in the Top 10. And the pair of queens sandwiched one king: the King of Pop, that is...Michael JACKson (if you're nasty...oops, wrong sibling). Mercifully, I will end my puns on playing cards right here.
