Ayu's popularity no.2 in ASIA!!!
 

I got the news and the conclusion is....

CHINA
The notability of Ayumi Hamasaki and Takuya Kimura is going up in the opinion poll 2004 July-September

The results :
01.Noriko Sakai
She begins to collect popularity from a broad later centering on the China continent from 1990s,Hongkong and Taiwan,and the popularity in this present is immobility

02.Ayumi Hamasaki
At the japanese music corner of CD shop in China,Ayumi Hamasaki's Albums (and singles of course) are put in order so u may surely say (sorry,I don't understand this "so you may surely say" sentence)

03.Takuya Kimura
He achieved the overseas movie (directed by Wong Kar Wai) 2046 and was chosen in the 3rd place

So....we know that ayu is still the BELOVED :love :love :love :love :love

ye!~that's ture..i am from china!~

REALLY!!!!!!!!
 

so until now ayu is still the best in China?

^__^ Happy!!

Thanks for the info! I never knew she was so popular in China. :D

Last year when I went back to China, she was all over the place. I saw a bunch of her commercials and my cousins all knew her. So yea, I think we can assume that Ayu is pretty famous in China.

Not too surpirsed with Nori-P being no.1. She's been in the business since the 80's and she's still going strong with releases, although she doesn't release as much as say... BoA or even Ayu.

Anywho, thanks for the news.

Nice but that's just one poll by one newspaper

WAAHHH !!! I know that lots of people say that Ayu is the popular singer in Japan!

this ish soo wonderful!!! >D

yay!! good job to ayu!

So Ayu is the second most popular artist in China? That's kinda weird, figured she wouldn't be above all the Chinese acts.

Whoa where did u get this news? Ayu is undoubtly very famous in Asia even though people here in Singapore who don't listen to Japanese music, they all know Ayu somehow ?_?

yay very good news~!
so the top 3 most popular artist are from japan???

wew... nice accomplishment :D

That's cool ^^
Who know One day She'll be here....

Nice one ! I hope she'll be popularity no.1 Now ^^

ayu is very popular in china. look at the amount of bootlegs availalble..and they even include non-existent songs such as 'lock heart' or 'night coming' to make fans buy them LOL
& i admit i got tricked into buying the night coming cd
