I think she should release singles that have 1 or 2 songs especially composed for the singles only (Bonus tracks). That should boost the sales for the singles as well as the upcoming album. She should do it more often. Or she can put some bonus tracks or bonus discs just like her LOVEppears album but this time, containing 5 or 6 original songs. Like extra cd or something. Or maybe, an album with double disc, a disc contain on my day songs and another will be off my day songs. Maybe 12 songs each disc. Who knows. A little bit sacrifice might give an unexpected result.:D My opinion.

As for missunderstood, i think it deserve to break million sales. Even if it takes a year to make it. It's a great album actually.:D

not bad, i hope she reach a million soon

i think itll eventually hit the million mark but not anytime soon. A-Ballads didnt hit the million marks before it went out of oricon site, but it eventually hit it. i also think that the cover/booklet also plays a role in the sales. they're all bold n delicious/pride themed and theres nothing new. people could easily download the album, but alot buy the album because they want something tangible to go along with it, and in this case, the booklet/cover doesnt do much justice.

hmmn.. i guess you have points... but something I should point out that the reason she sang Pride a lot is because Pride is A-side. She also sang is this LOVE? at musicstation. Usually artists promotes their A-sides but not B-sides. If like you say Will and alterna are A-sides, they should have been promoted quite often DURING THE SINGLE RELEASE. I'm sure ayu will sing alterna/Will on her tour, but singles' promotion periods are gone already. That's why I treat those songs as B-sides. Yes I agree with Wikipedia's facts, but that doesn't mean the world stop turning. Rules keep changing everyday. B-sides on the singles can be fitted onto album as well...

As for hikki... hmmn... I dun find any differences between single and album version o_O (B&C as an example).

(man i feel so tired arguing... let's stop the fight about A-side or B-side... it's just personal preference... no need to against you or the others :P peace :D)

Ever free did NOT have a PV. Why do people always say that? There was a video for it in the concert tour... There was a video for kaleidoscope aswell in the arena tour, and for wonderland (the pink screen).... those ARE NO PVS!!!!!!! :p

Maybe when her Tour is out the sales will rise again...This happened for some Cpop artistes....When they release some DVD concert or soething, the album sales SOMETIMES go up with it....

No Promotional Tour for this album right/? I think Ayu should make it AT06 ~(miss)understood~ or something like that...It is the best way for the sales to break 1 mill i guess

GO!AYU!GO!
support u 4ever!!><~~

not to be mean or anything .. i found that (miss)understood covers are the worse from all her albums .. i mean it looks so IEW ugly ! and also the booklet its so plain n simple .. all B&D theme ... she should at least make something new .. n i hope that Startin wont use Bold&Delicious THEME !! ENOUGH with the black hair !! n GOSPEL ~ n GEO !! :no

yeah i have to agree with that, some people might buy albums because of the covers, (for me i buy the old singles for the covers :P) and if they don't like it they probably just download the album :( i really miss Ayu's old covers from 2001 - 2003, they were so beautiful like endless sorrow, H, &, UNITE! and more~~

the photobooks were okay, not that great nothing relli stood out except for Ayu's hot body ofcourse :tipsy

i really hope Ayu will make a BIG comeback from the coming single!!!!

i agree, she should of left out some songs out of the album (possibly alterna/Will). rite there she could have had 2 more new songs, n possibly another new PV from that

Yeah, the covers probably put off those who came near cos people might think its a bottleg from the tracklist design and the grammar.

FIRST ALBUM NOT TO REACH MILLIONS

I can already see this one coming..

MAY I PLEASE REMIND YOU ALL..

that these sales are HIGHER than MY STORY!!!!?!?!?


my story 4th week: 38,792
(miss)understood 4th week: 38,861

thanks :P see, it may be a bit slow; but who knows; maybe it's getting stable. It'll probably get 1million eventually

umm...that MY STORY number is her week 5 sales as weeks 3+4 were combined for MY STORY.
http://www.ahsforum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=25556

MY STORY up to wk4: 959,348
(miss) understood up to wk4: 775,442
difference: 183,906

^i was just pointing out that his info was wrong cos that misleads ppl

Actually, I think it's more of Ayu never practicing her new songs to sing for lives.
Maybe she's waiting for her tour? but I still think she has the power to choose what to sing for tv lives.

No it WAS correct info; week 4 of MS is better than MU... and yeah in total of course there's a difference, but at this very week MU is doing better than MS...

same as MU 1st+2nd week sales.. doesn't matter; 7 days after the release date is the 1st week, and that's the 7th of january. The fact that it was on sale earlier doesn't have anything to do with that. It's like preorders...

that's sad sales...

i see u didnt bother to read the link i gave u.

MY STORY release: dec 15th, 2004
