BLUE BIRD sold good physically and had like 1,000,000 legal downloads.
Together When... wasn't released physically (therefore no CD investments) and had like 1,000,000 Legal Downloads, so I think that both did pretty well and gained a nice very nice profit and of course promoted the upcoming albums of them well.

yeah. i love Together When...i wonder how it would've done as a physical single.

I wonder how well ayu's singles this year will sell since single sales are dropping...(well maybe except for johnny's...they're crazy)

^ lol yeah theres a pretty good chance of that =) I hope it does o_o! The promotion on GUILTY this time was A LOT. lol Well IMO it was a lot x_X!

^ Chances are quite slim for GUILTY sales to surpass Secret's.

GUILTY will need to sell around 100k more in order to do so =/

By the end of the year, GUILTY will have a 565-570k sales.
*predicting*

^ I beg to differ. GUILTY 's sales is already around 557,784 and thus in just a few more weeks it will hit 570k..

IMO it reach around 600k... *hopefully*

I think Together When...would have done well as a single, especially if coupled with another track (MIRROR FULL VERSION?!!) because her ballads tend to sell well, especially Winter Ballads.

I think it's a matter of time it'll hit 600k.. i think it's possible for GUILTY to hit that mark.. but i'm not sure if it will beat Secret though.. not to forget the upcoming AT08 will definitely help promote the album a little >_<

True true, but I don't see it selling another 100+ k, sadly. I am pretty sure that it will eventually reach 600 k.

She should do another maxi-single with about 12 tracks. Remixes and stuff...she could include "part of Me," "Together When...," and "Mirror (Full Version)" just for the hell of it since they've never been released on physical singles.

she needs a big single...one track...a flavor of life!

Yeah...she needs another super-smash. Something that'll sell 800k.

^ i wish ayu will release another hit single and her popularity to reach its peak again.

I think a [CD] only, 3 track (TW + t'2m orchestra vers + instrumental) 800Yen single would've been great a month before the album. It could've done really well !!!!!

I'm so peed that Avex will give BoA a single the week before, but not Ayu ?!?! and plus i'm still annoyed part of Me and JEWEL weren't released as singles either.

Seriously, Avex need to start releasing more singles !!!!

a single before an album doesn't always do well. i think in most cases, it doesn't. i would probably still buy it, but if they had the track on the album, a lot of other people would just skip the single and go for the good stuff: the album.

and the days of the 10 track singles are overrrrrrr. do you really blame them with all the internet circulation and illegal downloads? (not condemning, just stating!)

he meant after you guys.

Anyway, Ayumi needs a huge tie-in, and yes she needs a flavor of life. I expect HeartStation by Utada to sell like 700k

A single before the album rarely does weill ^^ Bold & Delicious, Cherry Girl, Dragonfly and now HEART STATION. I think that the Digital Single was actually a smart move, considering the album was announced.

i expect it to do as well as Beautiful world..or even slightly better than that..but..

hmm it's too close..
now GUILTY already sold 557K...
just a few weeks more to reach 565-570K

i think the end of 2008 near 600K

what is the album position for today?!
XD

^ we couldnt see the chart because it out of top 20 daily...

Out of top 50.

D= aww thats horrible =(

But with the new version of Mirror hopefully it will jump back into the charts

It's on the charts just not on the top 50 XD
Albums have 300 places (and singles 200), it's still on the top 100.

if i didn't wrong, its still on the top 50

^ last week is on top 50...
maybe this week just in top 100

600K is a good aim.

what is the position for this weeK???

^Below Top 50

As long as it is still charting and not selling less than 1000 k, its ok.

^ 1k you mean.

i think it's selling less than 1k.

yeah, 1 k, and I dount it dropped that much ^^ it's probably like around 2k. ^^

It's more than 1,000 most likely. I doubt it got under 100.

what are the sales for this week?

2,004

559,788 is the current amount with that total added.

Hm... 600k seems "close" but.. not really. D=

What is the weekly position though?

Actually, 2,004 is quite good.

2000 is pretty good, I expected the sales would drop by half! So it will surely pass 560 k the next week! And yeah 600 k does seem far away, but I guess it will sell as much by the end of the year.

wawww.. not bad...
what is the position??

sorry, I have a question.

What's the english name of the single そばにいるね by 青山テルマ feat. SoulJa ?

i notice that this single has been staying in the chart for a very long time.

Sobani iru ne (By your side, i think).

it's good :)

79th.

^Thank you.

I wonder if it can stay another week on top 100...

^I hope so...

aw..it dropped alot..hope it will do better.

thanks alot.

D= oh no it dropped soo much =(! Maybe its just a bad week

hmm next week it cant sell 2K more..maybe only 1,6K

^ 1.8k

*,561,674 **1,886 GUILTY / 浜崎あゆみ 08/01/01

^ waw.. thats great.. not a huge drop

it's good :)

yay! GUILTY is long-life!

Nice, it didn't drop much, hope it won't go under 1.5 k the next week.

OHMYGOSH!

I hope it will reach the 565k mark(if ever!). *cross fingers* X-(

GUILTY's sales are wonderfully steady! It's nice!

this is late but: wow it's already surpassed Namie's "PLAY", which has been out since summertime xD

I hope it gets close to 600k.

O wow!! the gap between her and the following album is BIGGGG..hahaha
at least she is the second female!! and in top 10th...would be better if she made it to top 5 first female...GO GUILTY

C'mon GUILTY XD!

she is probably get top 10 yearly..
i hope at least 7 or 8 like my story or missunderstood

WOW!
There is a huge gap between アイのうた(Ai No Uta) and GUILTY sales.

I really hope that it will stay at top 10 by the end of the year.

AHAHAHAHAH?!?!? :irked
it is at number six and we are only in march... 3 of 12 mounths....

That's not good. Guilty might be in the top 20 overall. I'm expecting Yui, Aoyama, and Hikki to all be in the top 10 by the end of the year. Exile's BEST albums aren't to be taken lightly either. I just hope they don't have the #1 album of the year though. That would be a huge upset too many people. :laugh

Well yuna ito's ENDLESS STORY and Precious sold really really good (ENDLESS STORY sold more than aoyama's latest single) but yuna's album didn't pass the 550,000 so I think that it might be the same with Aoyama =P

Remember that ayu may end up having two more albums in the top hundred anyways. She always manages something, like last year she didn't release much and her best albums weren't the best sellers of the year, but she still ended up earining the most.

And they both were on the top 10 :yes
Now not a lot of artists can pull 2 albums on the top 10. EXILE are going to this year though :P

^Kobupower did that in 2006 and the way ALL SINGLES BEST is still selling, it looks like they will do it again. :yes

Just now I saw that EXILE's compilation album is divided to 3, EXILE CATCHY BEST, EXILE BALLAD BEST and EXILE EXTREME BEST.

I wonder how which will do =P

^I hope it'll sell like crap so that AVEX can finally realize that idea was **** stupid.

omg...really? 3? I can understand catchy best and ballad best but what the heck is extreme best?

Have no idea but it seems that their first compilatlion/s was divided to 3 as well and they were all released on the same day =P It seems that this time they won't be on the same day...

Well all of their 3 first compilations that were released on the same day could reach to #1

that's crazy.. 3 best album... i wonder they will behind ayu :D

I doubt that Aoyama's album will do all that spectacular. Quite frankly, I feel like Utada Hikaru's new album isn't all that cutting-edge or spectacular, but it'll sell a good 700~800k for sure. YUI's album will sell a lot, too. I'm hoping that Ayaka's album beats them both, to tell the truth. I don't feel like Ken's album will sell a whole ton, either. But one thing's for sure--Ayu's not getting in the Top 10 this year. :(

if ayaka's album is including winding road, it will sell a lot..
coz that is super hit single....

i think aoyama's album at least near GUILTY..but bot surpass

Thelma isn't going anywhere...she doesn't simply have it in her ~ a one(dumb) hit wonder.Hikki will sell more than 500 k for sure, but most likely not more than 700 XD. And I guess ayaka's sales might turn out to be like Yuna's (just bigger), I mean her first album sold great, but besides winding road she didn't have a really successful single for this one. YUI...I don't understand what makes people love her so much, she is ok but her incapableness of creating diverse music is annoying, same goes for ayaka. Out of all those albums I am sure Hikki will be in top 10. It would suck if the others get in there too, as they do not deserve it. And GUILTY will stay in top 20 for sure.

i pray that GUILTY will be on top 10 yearly album chart in the end of this year

^ i will pray too, well there's still a chance that GUILTY will be in top10; as there may be some unforseen circumstances like some albums having lackluster sales.

^ I've sen some artist today having this "lackluster" sales for their albums &/or single releases. I doubt that cause is the "leakage" or domination of MP3 players today.

And I really hope that her "GUILTY" Will remain at the top ten for next few months.

^Ugh, thank you, hunnybum. You're a life saver. lol We have a person who created the thread yet doesn't update the 1st post of the thread. :rolleyes

lmao well I guess maintaining is a job, you're welcome :D

sigh, i guess GUILTY will be like ABESTll BLACK; breaking another hundred thousand mark only after a very long time.

This week out of top 100.

thankies,bro...
i'll edit my 1st post :D

i think the 2nd week fall was really bad for her...otherwise, this album will still do very well

^Ayum's second week was good IMO. I would say that her 1st week was bad since she typically didn't sell much. Her 2nd week was a great rebound and helped her stay in the top 2, selling a bit more than her first week. Afterwards, her sales started to look bad. She didn't stay in the top 20 for long.

5296 climbed up the chart again!! X.X

^Meh....It'll take a miracle for that album to charting. ASB is still in the top 20, if not, the top 30. Go Kobupower! :sdevil

I think she already there (if there's no more than 3 new albums from other artists sold better than GUILTY this year)

*6 *,563,045 **1,371 GUILTY / 浜崎あゆみ 08/01/01

Thank you! Seems it still doing good.

thank you..
still good for this week...
next week probably sell lower than 1K

What if we all bought the album at once, would that make it go back up to Number 1? LOL!!! We should do that just so she won't lose her streak haha.

haha yes we should, but who will give us the money for buying it? I dont have a bucks to buy anything more:(((

we need about 500k people...to buy 1 each...from japan...and million!
