Japanese music charts

[AllForADeuce]

Anyone know great English language sites I can access for Billboard-type music charts for all different genres of music in Japan?

Hmm, how about I do that and expand on it a bit, I found a link with chart info from various outlets globally, and it has japan in it (though you might need to scroll down a bit)

http://www.lanet.lv/misc/charts/

However, one of the more frequently refered charts is the oricon and the link is at http://www.oricon.co.jp/rank/

it's in japanese though, but still worth a visit (there's streaming video on that page of the chart)

Oh no! I can't believe I forgot to mention that! Plus it's in english (one of the original requests by the initial poster), not to mention REC just did the year end chart a couple of weeks ago (yes, I listened to all 10 hours!) Thanks REC, you have a great bunch of services there.

For those so daring, it's even available in XML format:

damn good links below. Too bad I didn't have this when I went to japan last summer. I went to a few stores looking for Billboard style mags and they had NOTHING!
