I ♥ Miyoshi Ayaka

Sakura Gakuin are my favorite idols.  Their music to me is the most original music being created by any popular music group on this planet.  They do not sing one style of music over and over like some artists do.  These girls dare to be different.  Many of their songs have a rock sound, some qualifying as hard rock.  The subunits also do 1980s style synth pop songs and metal/dance pop hybrids!  Their music is constantly fun to listen to and never boring.  Sakura Gakuin's ballad, "message", is a mid-paced song with harmonica and solo lines from three of the girls.  Miyoshi Ayaka gets the first solo, and her voice is like an angel!  Nakamoto Suzuka has the second, and she has a good voice as well.  Former leader Muto Ayami has the final solo, and I like it, but not as much as Ayaka's and Suzuka's.  I have listened to their album "Sakura Gakuin 2010 ~message~" multiple times, and I still enjoy it every time.  I expect nothing but good things from this group in the future! 


I have many other favorite idol groups.  Mostly they are groups which few have heard of or support.  I feel that young, up-and-coming groups should be supported and promoted as much as possible, since their careers are just beginning and they are the future of music.  Even if they do not make a big impact or sell millions of CDs and other merchandise, they can still sing great songs capable of inspiring good feelings in the fans who adore them.  All idol groups need love and support from fans who love Japanese pop music, because who else is going to adore them and praise them for their talents?

I thought I'd update my favorite groups and list my favorite members as well, even if they have graduated and are no longer idols.
