Japanese idol groups AKB48 and Nogizaka46 were awarded the &#8220;Excellent Works Award&#8221; and are thus nominated for the main prize. Of particular importance to the committee in selecting this year&#8217;s nominees for the &#8220;Excellent Works Award&#8221; were, in addition to AKB48 and Nogizaka46, the works of Awesome City Club, Junretsu, Da-iCE, DA PUMP, NiziU, Hikawa Kiyoshi, Miura Daichi, and LiSA. Due to the ongoing Covid-19 situation, some awards such as Best Album will not be awarded this year as well. Japanese TV station TBS (Tokyo Broadcasting System) will broadcast the award ceremony live on 30 December 2021.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.jacompa.or.jp\/record_youkou_after59.html\">Criteria for the Japan Records Awards<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Comment from committee chairman Fumihiko Sasomori (Nikkan Sports Shimbun): the &#8220;Excellent Works Award&#8221; is to be given to a work that is not only particularly popular with the public, but also possesses artistic excellence, originality, and outstanding planning, and represents the year in which it was released. It is an award that is meant to encompass more than the popularity of an artist or a particular song, and also how the piece in question has reached people of different generations.<\/p>\n<h3>63rd Japan Record Awards &#8211; Winners\/Nominees<\/h3>\n<p><strong>\u201cExcellent Works Award\u201d (Grand Prix): Nominees for Grand Prix<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>AKB48 &#8211; \u201cNe mo Ha mo Rumor\u201d<\/li>\n<li>Awesome City Club &#8211; \u201cWasurena\u201d<\/li>\n<li>Junretsu &#8211; \u201cKimi ga Soba no Irukara\u201d<\/li>\n<li>DA-iCE &#8211; \u201cCITRUS\u201d<\/li>\n<li>DA PUMP &#8211; \u201cDream on the street\u201d<\/li>\n<li>NiziU &#8211; \u201cTake a picture\u201d<\/li>\n<li>Nogizaka46 &#8211; \u201cGomenne Fingers crossed\u201d<\/li>\n<li>Hikawa Kiyoshi &#8211; &#8220;Happy!\u201d<\/li>\n<li>Miura Daichi &#8211; \u201cBackwards\u201d<\/li>\n<li>LiSA &#8211; &#8220;Akeboshi\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Best New Artist Nominations<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>INI<\/li>\n<li>TAEKO<\/li>\n<li>Macaroni Enpitsu<\/li>\n<li>Mochizuki Ruka<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Special Award<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Ado&nbsp;<\/li>\n<li>Bank Band<\/li>\n<li>Matsumoto Takashi<\/li>\n<li>YOASOBI<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Special International Music Award<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>BTS<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Japan Composer\u2019s Association Award<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Takeshima Hiroshi<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Best Vocalist Award<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Fukuda Kouhei<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Lifetime Achievement Award<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Kawaguchi&nbsp;Makoto<\/li>\n<li>Kobayashi Asei<\/li>\n<li>Sakai Masatoshi<\/li>\n<li>Sakamoto Sumiko<\/li>\n<li>Jerry Fujio<\/li>\n<li>Sugiyama Koichi<\/li>\n<li>Terauchi Takeshi<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Best Vocal Performance Award<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>MISIA<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tokyohive.com\/article\/2021\/11\/winner-and-nominees-for-63rd-japan-record-awards-announced\">Aramajapan.com<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>#AKB48, #\u4e43\u6728\u574246 &#8211; The Japan Composer&#8217;s Association announced the winners and nominees of this year&#8217;s 63rd Japan Record Awards on 18 November 2021.
