yes ar
A BALLADS sales is over 1 million

wwwwowwww!!!! doing real goood! already past 200,000! sugoi!

maybe A ballads broke 1 million in a long long time... u know last year at probably oct it hits 960,000 >.< n if its 1 million rite now i would say agree coz i got my copy this year :)... mmm... maybe my story break 1 million in 2-3 weeks... maybe... so hard to broke 1 million in a week... :)

How many did memorial address sell in first day?

great sales figures! i am happy!

Yes, I'm agree.

M.A. sold 210900 copies

i was hoping the sales were higher..:(

omg 235,000 on the first day?! :thud

I hope it hits 1 mil as well ^_^

wonder..why the sales is not good as expected..
but i keep my faith in her..
there is still a long way for this week..so i think she still can sell 1 million marks in this week i think..Ganbatte ayu!
about utada exodus..i think that album is really bad so the sell is really low!

Really, wow. Let's hope MY STORY sales remain high the rest of the week :|.

erm why didn't u guys compared utada singale collection vol. 1 sales with my story? i'm sure ayu can beat utada sales....can she? utada had the highest grossing sale of 2 million this yr n become pretty pony~pretty pony~pretty pony~ no 1 female artisit who got all her 4 album to be rated no.1...

It proved how Hamasaki Ayumi can beat up Hikaru Utada too! :luv2 Bong! Bong! Bong!

Yeah, I don't think It'll reach 1mil in one week, prahaps two weeks This is great news though, that's a lot so far.

Actually, if you look at Ayu's ORIGINAL consecutive album sales, Ayu crushes Hikaru Utada - all Of Ayu's original albums have reached number 1 (A Song for ××, LOVEppears, Duty, A BEST, I am..., RAINBOW, A BALLADS, Memorial address - that's 8!!!!!!) However, ayu's second album is ayu-mi-x, which didn't make it to number 1 (of course, a remix album) so Ayu is already out of the picture of consecutive albums.

WOW! For the FIRST day, it's REALLY good! :)

i thought the pre-orders reached one million? DOesn't that count or I'm missing some things here :) ? Hopefully she breaks 2 million and more!!!

That's great news, I didn't want her to get beat by Orange Range. :)

i think pre order means the amount of cds that shops ordered. so there are 1 million cds in the shops now for people to buy

thanks for that site^-^
