[USEN] 'Virgin Road' ranks 3rd in overall 2010 USEN yearly chart


Surprisingly, Virgin Road seems to have gotten #3 on the USEN yearly overall charts! Mika Nakashima's "Ichiban no Kirei na Watashi wo" was #1 for 6 weeks in a row on USEN, so it was rather obvious it would be on top, haha. But Virgin Road is a bit of a surprise imo.

For those who do not know, USEN is a Japanese satellite digital radio service that is accessed with a device that you can tune to different channels (for example, we got Love song this month from the B-01 channel 'J-POP NEW HITS' or something of that nature) to listen to music. I suppose it can be compared with Sirius / XM here in the states.

Past positions on the charts:
2009 - #23 [overall] - Sunrise ~LOVE is ALL~

Wow, I guess she is VERY succesful when it comes to casual listening still. People don't buy her singles and albums much, her fanbase isn't so hardcore, but when it comes to actually listening to her music people still love her

Considering how Ayu is slowly losing the position in charts it's a nice change

Wow @ #1! I love that song to pieces.

VR too

I was expecting arashi or kana song to be #1, but there aren't there at all.
