First, make a list of your top-20 artists overall. Then, for each of these artists, add the 8 most similar artists to your list. Delete any duplicates, count up the number of entries on your list and this will give you some idea of how eclectic your listening habits are. A score of 9 represents an extremely unvaried musical taste while a 160 represents an extremely varied one.

Right now i'm listening to Akanishi Jin's (赤西仁) song, "Eternal". This song is just amazing!
Jin writes many songs, but "Eternal" have a beautiful lyric.
He could put any sexy soundtrack, and yet he has chosen sweet musics in his first single.
The coupling song is "ムラサキ" where it had a good reputation from fans since then. He commented "As a present to the fans".
I think this really cute and i'm thankful for our Eternal Boy.
I'm so proud of you, Jin! ...and missed you so much ♥ Welcome back!

No doubt 2010 has been a fantastic year for music. Well, at least for the bands and genres I follow. I'm the obsessive type when it comes to songs → yeah, not the people, the actual music. Don't you all hate the accusations that every major fan of foreign group X = 12 year old teenybopper just trying to jump on some internet fad because they can't fit in at school?

So, the following tracks are those that I've been over-playing and humming along to all year, much to the annoyance of everyone except my best friend. However, at one point I'm sure even she was ready to put a sock in my mouth. ;)

Artists are alphabetical (by surname) so if you're just here to see a particular one then just scroll down. :)

Yeah, if you're expecting a variety of Japanese music you're going to be heartbroken. This year all my love went to the bands from Johnny's & Associates.

J i n A k a n i s h i
north and south just hear his mouth. ♫

I'm not going to deny that 赤西仁 upset a lot of people this year. …

The idea is to go to the page of your number one artist, and follow the link of it's number one similar artist, then repeating that for this artist and so on, noting down each artist as you go. Do this until you've got to 50 artists (not including your number one). If you get any repeats, just go to the second similar artist or the nearest one that you haven't already had.

So, I decided to post my own collection as well :)
I started buying Japanese CDs in April of 2009, and my collection is steadily growing since then :3 I bought my first Korean CD just some days ago, so this part is still too poor XD And, I don't really buy American/European CDs anymore; everything that I have is from 2006 or before, just when I started listening to J-music~

1. Which Johnny band is your favourite?
嵐 OR News

2. Why?
嵐 because they are all perfect Johnnys. Super cute, funny, fail!tastic, distinct and loveable personalities and way catchy music.
NEWS because they are NEWS!! <33

3. Who is your favourite Johnny?
加藤成亮 and 相葉雅紀

4. Why?
Because Shige is… Shige? He fails in all the right ways and places, and his giant ego borne of lack of self-esteem issues makes him loveable instead of repulsive. Plus, he's very intelligent in some respects and I find it admirable.

Because Aiba is "special" and gooooorgeous. Plus, he loves animals, <333.

5. When was your very first contact with a Johnny?
The earliest I can remember is when my friend asked me "Do you know who Yamapi is?" and I said "Who?"
But the most significant was seeing an icon of Shuuji and Akira on LJ. Probably in… 2005 or 2006?

6. Who was it?
亀梨和也 and 山下智久 in 修二と彰

7. How did you know him?
