Howard Stern will run down the top 5 and they are all pop, and if I am lucky I recognize one song.
I sure don't get the J-Pop stuff. Guess it's like anime!
You should watch that last one I posted. The anime itself is amazing, but the song is epic. It's actually a song from a real Japanese Idol group, AKB48, but they did a special version for the anime, with the voice actresses for the main characters. It's so good. The lyrics are good too
Watch it in fullscreen though. The animation and CG for the OP is really good.
VVV Premise of the show
At the start of the 21st century, an interplanetary war broke out. Earth's ecosystem was severely damaged, and humanity was forced to flee the planet. In several planets of this new society, things that "disturb the heart" like music and art are forbidden. 48 years later, the legendary idol group AKB48 is resurrected as the interplanetary troupe AKB0048, made up of girls who carry on the title and spirit of the original members. Held as heroines by some and labeled as terrorists by others, they must take up arms to bring their music to their fans wherever they are. The story follows a group of young hopefuls as they train to become the next generation of AKB0048.
