I definitely remember a lot of that talk around the forum this time last year.
Well, I don't, but then again, I wasn't active at the forum at the time. I remember basically not really caring that NEXT LEVEL was coming out and being really "...." about everything even though I was slightly excited despite personal problems at the time.

She's wacked her tour straight after her album release. Didn't work out for her last time? Only one TV live.
She mentioned promotional activities in her latest blog entry. I feel as though she will probably be on just as many magazines, and maybe 2-3 TV shows. Anything is better than nothing. She might also appear on the radio once or twice a la NEXT LEVEL.

In fact, it seems to happen with every new album - this is going to be the "one" to make her sales skyrocket again.
Well, very rarely do sales go up from album to album for artists nowadays. (Exceptions are new acts and Namie Amuro's recent resurgence.) Usually it's a downhill ride, but I think with this album, there might be more incentive for more people to get it. Who knows... we'll only now when the release date comes and sales figures are confirmed on the first day...

I think that this album will be lucky to hit 320k+, but I feel as though it's SLIGHTLY possible [10%~ chance?] to sell 400k...
