lovely :)

thanks for sharing :D!!

the top 3 is for the lols

thank you for the info :)

Haha, the results are overwhelmingly Arashi.

great that Ayu can get in top 10 !japan still loves her !^^!

At least ayu made it into the top 10!
Since it's seems like who's popular poll. XD

yea~, i'm so glad that Ayu could make up the top 10 :)
that means ppl still think her concerts are great :)

Of course her concert is definitely awesome. But I think she should protect her voice first, or a good performance will be ruined just by her bad singing:-S

^i think she protects her voice as much as she can. didn't she say something about having 10 humidifiers just in her room when she sleeps?

i'm happy she placed in the top 10. :D

#5, #6, #9, #10 :heart

ewww boy bands and YAY NAMIE #5

lol at aiko being higher than ayu.

for me ayu is in the top 5

Wow, THSK also is in the list :D

Japan still loves her :yes

i never seen aiko's live before lol..
arashi's definitely rocks!
yay at ayu for top 10!

What a points difference between #1 and 2 :laugh
Proud of Toho and Ayu! :D

thanks for the info!!!

not bad!

Nice, thanks!

Only 12 people voted for her? :(

Ayu can do great live perf! Glad to see her in the list!! =D

only 10 I hoped she'd be in the top 3.
She's amazing in live.
& I wonder why namie amuro beat her. I've never succeeded to watch one of her concert utterly as it's only dance dance & dance.

thanks for sharing

I'm pretty surprised at aiko, but whatever. At least Ayu made the top 10!

^ her dance moves, that's what make ppl interested on her haha..
i enjoy her concerts.. the dance just HOT haha XD

At least she's on that list!

congrats to ayu but to Namie too! they're both great performers

why alot of people like Aiko..

^
I like Aiko :shrug she make good music even though her voice is not so awesome as Hikki, Superfly or Ayaka.
Is the same thing of Arashi and other boybands. Why most of girls love them? :innocent

btw congratz to Ayu :heart

^
I'm probably one of the only Arashi fangirls that is more interested in the Music than in the Boys xD

i would expect ami and DBSK to be higher

Ami?

regardless of her live vocals, she does give unparalleled stage performances. she knows how you keep you watching the performances. i rarely get too bored that i'd look away.

Kuu should've been on the list too. She has amazing performances on every concert she has had so far and I don't understand why they didn't vote her to this poll. But anyhoo, I'm glad that Namie's in top 5 though. <3

Good to see her in the top 10! Thanks for sharing~

gosh~

I'm tired with Mr. Children... TT

I dun consider this poll accurate at all if only 500 people were being surveyed. How can that small portion of people represent the entire nation? Oricon should at least surveyed about 10,000 people (?) if they wanna have a more presentable figure.

Yey for Arashi and Ayu!! *_*

But... aiko higher than her???? T_T why??
And I would have put Kuu somewhere there... she's a great performer

That's the first thing I thought, too..... >_>'

yay go ayu:)
