Yay No.5 is a wonderful debut peak

The quality of this album was insanely good! Every song had something interesting about it (haven't heard #9 or 10 yet. are they out?). I like how they threw in a ballad for her so that it wasn't all the same style. My only complaint is about Ayumi really. I wish her vocals were a bit stronger...still amazing for a debut album. Had this material been given to Namie Amuro or BoA, it would've been a #1 hit for sure.

number 5 pretty good...!!! i hope it will rise and people will acknowledge her more...

Making of the 7 CMs and the actual CMs at the end

>_>.....never will I watch this video again xD The same verse repeating for like 7 times :roflmao

The concept is really simple....but at least it's promotion!

(I never thought that Starbucks would need more advertisement....but I guess they do...)

Is there any chance that sales will actually rise? I'm really loving this album. I'll wait for the OS press though...she isn't at the top of my list.

Anyone find it weird that a Japanese video is being sponsored by Geico? 0_o. She looks really nice in the PV...I'm just wondering....how the heck do they get those hat, head-piece things on her head 0____o

who are her competition?

Well...I can't really say. I don't know any of them...I've heard of L'arc though.....they have the #1 and will definitely stay. Uh...second place, Yuki has pretty solid sales too...no chance there. 3rd place has only 9.8k so I cant imagine that she's that far behind....btw, do you guys refer to her as Ayumi or ICONIQ? It feels kinda weird to be calling her ICONIQ when I know her real name...

Maybe unless her album just starts to bomb.

L'Arc~en~Ciel, YUKI and w-inds. also there are other well known artists but they ranked lower than her.

Oh I see~ Well that's not too bad

I'll just call her ICONIQ...it'll be like a nickname and I'll probably get confused if someone make a reference to Ayu and Ayumi lol

the new album is really good!! this girl has a style and chance to be the next best japanese superstar :yes
I hope PVs get leaked very soon. Yesterday, I watched previews (1:30 or something) on the YouTube and all of them are fantastic - especially Crystal Girl and BYE NOW! :love

LQ BYE NOW! full

2nd day position...
going up to position 3!!! with 6734 copies...!!!

i think it will be hard for her to defeat yuki and laruku...i hope she will get number 3 weekly position...

just watched her bye now! PV...and wowwww...i'm blown away...i love her PV...and she has a nice dance movement too...love it a lot...

officially become fans of ICONIQ!!! :luv2:luv2:luv2

Good to see that she rose. I doubt she'll get number three seeing how the previous #3 sold 9k yesterday unless so just gets a boost in sakes,which I hope happens.

I've been listening to the album since yesterday. This is a fantastic debut! The PV for Crystal Girl is amazing <3.

this PV is really great! can´t wait for the other ones.

Dunno if this has been posted here~. Crystal Girl's video in HQ! :)


Also some images, credits go to LeeLeeNeko @ JPM
