Annual Utattemita Ranking 2011 (12-25-10 to 12-25-11)



As with last year, here is the huge annual utattemita ranking for 2011. As all of these songs have been featured in the Weekly Utaran (multiple times even!), I won't be including small details. I'll just be including the Romanized title, the singer, and the original composer. As my Internet is acting up as usual, I wasn't able to include links to the mylists and all that but I hope you understand :).

The Annual Utattemita Ranking is made up of several parts, all of them will be listed here in reverse order unlike my usual style. Let's look at them one by one :).

PART 1
PART 2
PART 3
PART 4

ETA: There were some errors in the ranking, particularly in part 2, so changes have also been applied accordingly in this post. Thank you for the assistance [personal profile] monocian!


UTATTEMITA 2011 UPLOAD RANKING - 100 to 001
The main part of this special is the Utattemita Ranking 2011. This is a ranked list of the best 100 songs uploaded from 12-25-2010 to 12-25-2011 which had gained a lot of views, mylists and comments. Here is the list from 100 to 001.

The kiriban ranks are songs that land in certain numbers in the rankings.

UTATTEMITA PRE-2011 UPLOADS BEST 100

You can refer to this ranking like the "overall weekly ranking" in weekly utaran minus the new videos. These are songs not uploaded in 2011 but have gained tons views, comments and mylists from 12-25-2010 to 12-25-2011. As expected, some of them are also the highest viewed, commented and mylisted videos of all time in this category. This list is also in reverse, from 100 to 001.

MOST COVERED SONGS of 2011

This is a ranking for the most covered songs in the utattemita category. Most of these are, of course, Vocaloid songs. This list is also in reverse.

Aaand there you have them. I apologize for being a day late. And because I'm late and it's a Monday (which is Utaran day), I'll have to move the first ever Weekly Utaran writeup for 2012 tomorrow. So sorry! But I'm sure you've enjoyed this one btw. This can also be a good guide for you to backtrack the popular songs last year, discover new songs and new singers.

Monthly Nico Nico Indies Ranking #17 - September to October 2011



This is a combination of the rankings for September and October. As the NNI category is pretty slow with updates, there's still a lot of old stuff in this ranking. However, there are also a lot of new ones worth watching, although you may have already encountered them somewhere if you follow some VocaloP/utaite's original stuff. Apologies for the lateness, I didn't realize it was already uploaded OTL.

Weekly Utattemita Ranking # 141 (July 11-18, 2011)

This week is riddled with medleys and collaborations and Nyansei's and Tapir's (I think it's Nem's week). There are a lot of interesting uploads from both known and unknown singers, so please do go through them one by one. Of course, there are also the parodies, both SFW and NSFW but I'll let you guys deal with them ^^;.

Weekly Utattemita Ranking #140 (July 04-11, 2011)

Apologies for being late. I have no Internet at home and I just snuck!wrote this while I'm busy with work. I'll try my best to post Vocaran later or tomorrow, too. I'm sad that I don't get to flail much with the songs since I can't load Nico Nico Douga here at all so please ignore my lack of witty comments. There are a LOT of wonderful new songs this week, particularly in the top ten. There's also a gratuitous amount of crack and parodies. There is also a ton of tapir song covers XD. A couple of singers here in the ranking are more known in the namahousou part of NND and just crossed over here. Hope you enjoy them despite the boring writeup!

PS: You may also notice the lack of "overall ranking" data in my writeup. It's because I can't load the video to see them ^^;. Ignore those for now as I'll add them later when I find an opportunity to watch the video. Sorry again.

Weekly Utattemita Ranking # 129 (April 18-25, 2011)

This week is full of collabs and pairings, so expect to see a lot of them filling the rankings. You might notice last week that there is a slight bandwagoning of Suki Kirai? Well, it's not dying down and you'll even see more of them next week.

Anyway, you might notice that the Weekly Utaran has changed video dimensions (it's clearer and wider now!) as well as frame designs XD. I feel bad for not mentioning last week, but the portions are now of different colors (new uploads is blue, overall ranking is purple, pickup is light blue and history is orange). Utaran-san made great efforts to customize the presentation to everyone's viewing comforts, too, with all the data collected in the sides and properly labeled. Of course, make sure you stare hard at the screen at the rank intervals because Hibiki (if you don't know who Hibiki is...he's the Utaran mascot) appears in the frames, too XD.

So, this ranking is now color-coded. The links have colors specific to the portions so as to avoid confusion. The song names are still clickable, by the way. Please tell me if it looks okay or not. If not, I'll revert to the old format!

Okay I will stop gushing now before you close your tab XD.

You might notice that dreamwidth's celebrating Three Weeks for Dreamwidth, which commemorates the site's anniversary. We're very thankful to DW for giving us a place for this comm as well as giving invites so you guys can make journals so we'd like to participate in the celebration as well. The thing is we haven't thought of what to do XD. But we will, somehow, so please wait for it XD.

Weekly Utaran #120 (2/14-2/21, 2011)

Weekly Utattemita Ranking #120 (Feb. 14-21, 2011)

We have a weak week for this ranking, with very few covers from people we know. Buuuut that means there's a lot of opportunity to know lesser known singers who sound equally amazing. You might see a lot of unfamiliar names in the lower parts, but the top parts are definitely dominated by people you see A LOT in the ranking XD;. And yes, there are more Panda Heroes.

Please do not mind my half-asleep comments. I'm tired from running around all day and my boss deprived me of a delicious Korean beef stew lunch. Yes, I am bearing a grudge because of that. Anyway, let's go to the ranking w/ my lame comments ^^;.

Weekly Utaran #119 (2/7-2/14, 2011)

Weekly Utattemita Ranking #119 (February 07-14, 2011)

This ranking is late by a day because of some problems in Nico Nic Douga's system (you might notice, Vocaran is late, too). This week is pretty weak in comparison to the previous weeks. There aren't many covers and there aren't covers powerful enough to topple other songs over. Which means there are some new names and songs you might have not encountered before but are worth a look! It's just unfortunate that I'm too tired to give interesting comments so sad to say, you'll be missing my spazz this week orz. I'll double the efforts next week! Anyway-----

NOTE: As of February 16, 11PM Japan time, this ranking has been edited to reflect the corrections in the nicovideo version. Due to the changes, the overall ranking has been slightly altered.

The past week had a lot of strong songs which refused to go away this week, so you'll still see them lingering in the higher parts of the ranking (loltaroulol). But, there are also a wealth of new songs worth checking out, most of them from singers you already know and love :).

Weekly Utattemita Ranking # 116 (January 17-24, 2011)

This week is awesome because there are many, many wonderful covers from people we all know and love. The new number one caused a lot of songs from the same singer to return to the ranking. Some of the songs I expected to stay dropped out while some I didn't expect to excel rose far above others. I'm pleasantly surprised with some, so let's get started with this week.

This week is awesome! There are a lot of good covers (most of them bandwagoning to a couple of songs but who cares) and the ones retained are the old favorites as well. It's surprising that all the songs that rose last week now fell, probably because of the influx of new songs. I'm sure you have an idea of what's in the top, but you might still be surprised by one or two of them~.

Utaite Spotlight: Da-little

Da-little/Hiradon/ひらどん/hrdn

mylist | comm | twitter

Da-little is no newbie in the utattemita scene, however, I feel that he's very underrated. Da-little is one of the members of Asamakku family. You could hear his songs played as BGM during Asamakku Radio.

His voice is high that fits ballads very much. However, he can also sing R&B tunes. His pronunciation of the words is very good. Da-little has a good grasp in English. If you listen to his English versions of songs, it doesn't sound awkward and you can hear the words clearly.

Aside from his utattemita work, Da-little is also the vocalist of Sputnik If you want to listen at his Sputnik works, you can check out the website as they have posted their PVs there. :) The songs are only availble on iTunes.

Da-Little holds lives frequently. I rarely have a chance to listen to them because there are other lives going on during that time. You can also catch him holding lives with Wotamin that lasts for hours. :D

sample songs

Ur-Style (DATEKEN original)
glow (keeno original)
Starduster (Jimmythumb original)
Hanagumori (Dixie Flatline original)
Fire◎Flower (halyosy original)
Gemini -English version- (Dixie Flatline original)

len says:

I appreciated Da-little a lot when he covered DATEKEN's Ur-Style. I never liked any other covers of this song except Da-little's. Probably because most covers I heard have the singers autotuning their voices too much.

What impressed me more about Da-little is his English version of some songs. As far as I know, he's covered Gemini, Melt and Spice.

Weekly Utattemita Ranking #113 (December 27, 2010 - January 03, 2011)

The first ranking of the new year! This week has a lot of movement because while there are new uploads, a lot of the previous week's hits managed to stay in the ranking for this week. There's a bit of a problem in the new upload ranking since the list in the mylist and in the video do not match, so at the moment, I'm waiting for confirmation/correction from the Weekly Utaran uploader. Very sorry about that! Anyway, geh, I can't say anything suspenseful since this week MIGHT be predictable to some of you ^^;.

The discrepancy has been clarified, thank you as always to @weekly_utaran
