this's the 2nd single for the year that I listened to & I feel that the B-side's just as good if not better than the A-side itself grrr :eviltongu

ashita e no sanka had a great b-side too! as well as megumi no ame! I'm glad that namida is going to be in the new album thou :P

alan is 26th today with Swear

Spoiler:

oh I'm surprised that Oricon starts counting Swear today since I know today's a public holiday in Japan ie. Culture Day

I love Beauty!! ^-^ it's so ethereal <3

The translation, romaji & kanji of Beauty for those interested (or click here)

Spoiler:

No. 26 isn't that good. I was expecting her to get into the top 20 at least! But considering that this single's coming out right befor eher album, I'm not suprised.

^ actually Alicia what surprised me that's Swear charted earlier than what I expected

because I thought a new Oricon week starts on every Wed & not Tue from my knowledge

^^the single is pretty weak and random after all... why couldn't they just wait and release the album? she had 2 singles already for it. and Swear didn't deserve a pv or even to be a single, the song isn't that "upbeat" or even that good... bleh

:(

yeah, that too. I had no idea about this holiday and... wasn't the single itself supposed to come out on the 4th i.e: tomorrow? Hmm, strange...

yeah today's a public holiday in Japan ie. Culture Day

so maybe that has to do with something on why the single & others which released tomorrow are starting to chart today & not tomorrow

Does someone know if both calendars and the photobook from the album are still available on mu-mo???

Downloading the single now! Thanks tenshi for the translation! I'm so not surprised at the bad chart position

What's so surprising?

I mean the single is really good but we know that alan is unfortunately not that popular and put it + an album in 2 weeks it's not really surprising...

I really hope that the album will outsell Voice of Earth in a lot. ^^

All the singles and albums that are supposed to be released on the 4th charted today due to the holiday. We'll probably see a rise tomorrow after all that is the official release date and all.

WEIRD!!!!
Mmmmm, No.26???
what happened, the last 2 sngles were in the top 20

offcial date is tommorow and everyone have low sales today because of holiday

If I remember correctly, Ayaka also experienced an increase or at least stable sales due to the holiday. So yes she should somewhat increase, but from what I can see it's still going to flop :(

That's okay! There's some hope for the album :P

thank you so much tenshi!

i love both of them... altho when i was listening to beauty i kept praying she was gonna wail but it never came.... :( i just love her wail so much
