I'm curious about which debut song will be the highest, all of them are pretty idol-ish compared to what came next, maybe miss Shizuka will snatch due to the production, though miss Kyoko did a lot with a more traditional one.

 

I haven't gone through them all yet, but Seiko's debut was a BOP!

I guess Akina may not excel here since her song isn't exactly a bop, but at least she has the gayest signature song.

 

I wasn't even thinking about adding this song because its ~slow~ album version is kinda bad, but the single one is such an upgrade. And 勉強の歌 would probably sound too similar to the other songs.

 

 

ok bop

omg, Kyoko's songs really slay! Her selection is my fav of these ladies'

 

Maybe people aren't moving because of the word idol, let me reconsider the marketing. Showa era MPGs or something since they were basically that.

nnn that might actually work 

 

Oh this one is hittinggg on the 2nd listen

 

The greatest melody paired with the greatest MV of all time Oh Mika 

 

 

How it feels being a Mika Nakashima stan but not giving a **** about NANA...

 

 

 

Really struggling to pick a favorite Showa track since there are so many good ones, but I know which one is getting marked as least favorite!

Nope, I liked hers! It has a real nostalgic/dreamy feel to it

Honestly, stats-wise, she probably deserved a proper spot here but her music is the most traditionally idol out of her peers, and she was probably Momoe's real succesor, so that could've ended up badly.

Dated, synth-less, a bit cheesy. Maresia said give me city pop bops instead of that traditional idol shite or I'm going to give these ladies the Kumiko treatment.

ghfhfjfjdgdg well Maresia better be working diligently on her ballot then!

oh this is fun! let me tune in.

 

Well, Koizumi in the House was all right, but I fear Fade Out was the best by a wide margin. This final track would have been pretty cool without all those annoying movie sound bites mixed in 

Hate it when songs have those

I like Koizumi in the House. Maybe you'll enjoy the Yoko Kanno produced オトコのコ オンナのコ more?

 

 

And I might've excluded a song or two exactly because you're averse to those weird sounds.

This is actually my favorite Shizuka song (peaked with the first song teas) but two songs from the debut album would've been an overkill. Again is also pretty great.
