Procrastination dictated that I not study for my test during my break, and to instead browse Billboard, which lead me to the thought to compare it to Oricon (the Japanese version of Billboard)
Just going by the top 3 songs... I have determined that I totally born in the wrong country or at the very least the wrong era of American music! I mean what the hell? I could not even finish listening to any of the top three, let alone bring myself to continue going down the list of Billboard.
Then we have Oricon... first three songs... AMAZING. (OK #2 was a bit too poppy for my tastes, but was in no way bad) #3 on Oricon BLEW ME AWAY! The song is so amazingly 60s, and the English was fantastic (to the point where I had to look up the band to confirm they were, in fact, Japanese).
Conclusion: I should have been born in Japan (or Europe as I am also a fan of European Electronic Music), or been born in the 60s so that I could grow up in an era where popular music didn't suck so much.
