Hoshi Wo Mezashite

Among all Japanese idol group, that I am really in love is NEWS (included my BF obviously LOL)
They have wonderful, soulful and deep voices...to make me feel a shaking shiver! Infact, how many time a song we love makes us inspire a particoular and strange sense? For example... "Hoshi Wo Mezashite" by News makes me occur Japan, many splendid things that I'm looking forward to see in this country and so many projects I've always meditated.
Unluckily I can't find any interesting information about them...I wonder if they're still famous.
However there is an abysmal difference among the success reached by Japanese idols and American/English/Italian ones. Who knows why, but in Japan there are so many guys but all of them not really famous...only few ones become very well-known. Instead for example in America there are so many fantastic singers loved by everybody that we don't even remember all them! Anyway both worlds have a thing in common : the road to reach success is very odd.
Who attains success has all my admiration.
