Nana Mizuki「Silent Bible」 http://v.youku.com/v_show/id_XMjI4NDQ1MTg0.html
Nana's 22nd single. I wasn't feeling it much on first listen, but it really grew on me especially when 「IMPACT EXCITER」 was released. The song is very animesque but it's the good kind of anime song. I really love the verses leading up to the chorus. Very dramatic. Also, the video for the song is just gorgeous. I think it's one of my fav videos this year. Very visually pleasing. This is Nana's 1st entry in my year end chart since 「TRICKSTER」 in '08.
immi「Sign of Love」 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QHf1ZAjrLMM
This song came as a big surprise to me. I remember downloading immi's 「Remiix」 (or whatever it was called) EP back in 09 and I thought it was a huge mess. I only got through one song. This year I decided to visit immi's thread at JPM and someone posted 「Sign of Love」 video and I really liked it. The song is a great light, electro-pop tune. I've had it on repeat for several days when I downloaded.
JUJU「Trust in You」 http://v.youku.com/v_show/id_XMjI0MTgyNTI4.html
When I first heard this song, I was like 'oh great, another ballad from JUJU ' However, I ended up really liking this song. The chorus is just beautiful! "doushittate kimi ni ima" I cant help but to sing along! This is the best song JUJU released this year. It felt a little short of "Ashita ga Kuru Nara" which charted top 10 in my best list last year, but the song is great nevertheless.
so if you are not familiar with the music and have nothing relevant to say, just don't comment. Let's keep it classy.

placings 51-100 are just not a big recognition imo
<- totally agree
3/3
I think JuJu's songs are good but seems like she's not loved like other singers
Ashita ga Kuru Nara, I can still remember how you was addicted to that last year
