Mrs. GREEN APPLE’s ‘Lilac’ Logs Third Week at No. 1 on Japan Hot 100

Mrs. GREEN APPLE’s “Lilac” returns to No. 1 on the Billboard Japan Hot 100, dated Jan. 8. Rosé & Bruno Mars’ “APT” slips a notch to No. 2.

Creepy Nuts’ massive rap smash “Bling-Bang-Bang-Born” rose 6-3 and Kocchinokento’s breakout hit “Hai Yorokonde” more than doubled in downloads, rising 10-5. Other Kohaku performers who graced this week’s chart include Kenshi Yonezu, whose “Sayonara Mata Itsuka!” saw a six-fold increase in downloads to shoot to No. Veteran rock duo B’z also return with two classic J-rock anthems, “ultra soul” and “LOVE PHANTOM.” The former re-enters the chart for the first time in about 7 years and 4 months at No.
