一九七六到一九七九年，二人偶像组合 Pink Lady 的风头甚至超过廿一世纪的 AKB48。但今天的人们想起一九七零年代末、八零年代初的日本流行音乐，基本不会有她们的位置。留在历史上的是细野晴臣、坂本龙一、和 YMO。这是我们在思考中国的「文化输出」问题时的参照。

English summary: From 1976 to 1979, the female idol group Pink Lady enjoyed a level of stardom that dwarfs even AKB48 in the 21st century. Nevertheless, not only did they fail in the US market back then, they remain largely neglected in the recent rediscovery of late-1970s and early-1980s Japanese popular music, whereas their contemporaries like Haruomi Hosono, Ryuichi Sakamoto, and YMO have sparked renewed interest among the new generation of listeners outside Japan.
