Oricon Releases Its Year End Charts for 2021

The year is coming to an end, and Oricon has now released its year end charts for 2021. These charts measure the period from 12/14/20 – 12/12/21.

Snow Man‘s “Grandeur” is the best selling single of 2021. It is this year’s only million-selling single. Their 2020 single “KISSIN’ MY LIPS / Stories” also sold a million last year, making Snow Man the first male act since L’Arc~en~Ciel in 1999 to have two consecutive years with million-selling singles.

BTS‘ “BTS, THE BEST” is the best selling album of the year. This is first time since 1984, when Michael Jackson‘s “Thriller” did it, that a foreign act has topped the year end album chart.

Yuuri‘s “Dry Flower” is the best selling digital single and most streamed song of 2021.

YOASOBI‘s “THE BOOK” is also the best selling digital album of the year.
