aiko is well known within Japan for her cheerful disposition, and because the majority of her material focuses primarily on the topic of love, she is particularly popular amongst young girls throughout East Asia as well. In fact, as proof of her popularity, aiko won Oricon’s subscriber survey as favorite singer in both 2005 and 2006.
aiko’s songs are generally upbeat, although she has also released some slower tempo numbers. With her somewhat wistful vocals, aiko makes the perfect popular artist and it is no wonder that she remains so popular in Japan some ten years after her debut.
