The other day the official 61st Kouhaku Utagassen 2010 artist and song listings were confirmed. Various lists have already been translated already, so I’m posting it for news sake. 
I went through the trouble of finding the artist and respective songs on Youtube and linked them in the below tables so everyone can get a preview of the song. Most performances were live, but there’s some that are professional music videos. This year there’s 7 songs that are medleys.
The guest judges for this year are: actress Nakama Yukie (31), actress Ueno Juri (24), actor Kitaoji Kinya (67), actor Terajima Shinobu (37), Iseya Yusuke (34), bronze medal winner figure skater Takahashi Taisuke (24), novelist Mura Nunoe, author Iwasaki Natsumi, author Minato Kanae, and astronaut Noguchi Soichi.
