it's good to see Fly So High is not included in it's original form, it's such a crappy song. it's really bland & generic poppy track and really it would not have fit on the album at all.

it's a shame that so many singles have been released leaving the album a little lacking on the new material, but atleast the singles have b-sides so they have some worth.

I wonder if they'll make a PV for one of the album tracks too? I guess we'll see when the DVD tracklist is out.

I'm thinking that the album will do ok, it's not going to be a super but I think all of her singles have charted within like the top 40? and REAL YOU was a minor hit.

I read an article about Yu awhile ago, I think it was on the english Japan Times or something. It said that Yu is one of the most popular Idols at the moment, and they estimated that she gets 50 million Yen for one ad campaign, that's little under half a million US$ or 300 000 - 400 000 €.

it may not translate into huge sales, but she does a lot of talkshows and variety tv. so the album has much publicity but we'll see how it'll do.
