What a flop... lmao. Even K-Flop bands debuted higher... I wonder if she could sell at least 1k because Namie itself sold 28k in the second place.

For sure, it's a memorable flop day to remember.

From what it seems , gr8 records seem to be relying on the tie in's promo that both A-sides in the Woman's Worth / Breeze Out single are getting ? :O

Cos unlike last time , there doesn't seem to have that much magazine/TV promo going on for her new single & I don't even think Kuroki's scheduled to perform at MUSIC STATION & other TV shows as well ?

Guess they're already focusing on her 2nd album which I guess it's a good thing ? xD

I have no idea. I have a theory that they used this single to make money in order to produce a good album and new pvs for her. But, just like I said in my twitter, it's a weak single overall. It's something that western people are used to listen and like, in other hand, Japanese people are used to chewing gum pop like LOL!. Moreover, I have a brazilian friend living in Japan and he said that the CMs for her new single are used to air after midnight... so yeah, the promotions for this single sucks.

Ugh poor Meisa :(

adantatu2 8th December 2011 11:23 PM

2nd Day. Out of the top 30
ToT
And where's the single?

ACCORDING too natsu style, she is No.40

AyUta 9th December 2011 09:41 PM

not looking good.

sesshy 9th December 2011 10:49 PM

Oh wow, I just started listening to her other albums, from what I'm hearing... I thought she would do well on the charts. :/

KarenPang 9th December 2011 10:52 PM

I guess fans are waiting for her new album to drop in Feb , since in general as compared to One More Drama & Wired Life , Woman's Worth / Breeze Out is underperforming :x

But it's ok , it's not as though it's the end of the world or something

I really can't wait for her 2nd album to get released in Feb *___*

Which makes me wonder , how come Woman's Worth / Breeze Out hasn't leak out yet ? God dammit D:

Kaiouforever 9th December 2011 11:12 PM

Really am not feeling Breeze Out. PV is nice, but the song doesn't do much for me. Woman's Worth has gotten a couple of listens from me though. :) More excited for the album!

It sold less than 1.000 copies on it's first day, I guess. So we'll have to wait about 1 week until it leaks on the internet. Or in the worse case, I can leak it in...... one month. Gotta love Brazil and SAL method.

Utena 10th December 2011 11:40 AM

buah I didn't receive my copy today as I was expecting... first time it's taking so long and of course when it's something I really want ;___; I hate the postal services gah.

KarenPang 10th December 2011 11:17 PM

Oh god finally Woman's Worth / Breeze Out has leaked out :thud

^thanks a lot Karen

It's not THAT bad...

Sometimes I think Japan sees her more of a model and actress than singer :shrug Why should they buy her single? lol

yey for an album~ I suppose it'll do better.

KarenPang 14th December 2011 03:14 AM

Peak position for Woman's Worth / Breeze Out - #47 with 2,727 copies sold in the 1st week

adantatu2 14th December 2011 06:02 AM

those are her worst single sales
at least top 50

CHE.R.RY 14th December 2011 04:29 PM

I agree with Emiko...I've been thinking the same thing for a long time. Maybe Japan just doesn't see her as singer-material...which I kind of don't blame them if they really do think that way about her. I mean, it's not like she has an outstanding voice or a really unique style as far as music goes. Don't get me wrong, of course, I adore my Meisa...I just don't see her as an extraordinary musician. Sometimes I can only visualize her as a model more than anything else.
