Yeah, it''s a shame, but it's still got pretty good sales. Though MY STORY took like a year or so to get 1 million sales, right?

I dun think so... it broke 1 million sales either before or around STEP you release..

anywayz... it's lower than my expectation this week... I thought it would get around 60K...

It's a shame.
I think this album is really good :/

Aww..

They should count overseas sales. Maybe then it could have reached 1 million by now, thanks to Taiwan, and all the neighbouring countries who slave over work for money.

MY STORY hit 1 million in about 6 weeks

elepop · #11 24th January 2006, 09:48 PM

Whoaaa! It's so low. Probably gonna take a very long while before it hits a milions copies. I wish her sales would at least stay stable... It's probably gonna sale more with the single coming, I don't know...

**Ryoko** · #12 24th January 2006, 10:00 PM

With those sales, it might never reach one million.

Zeke. · #13 24th January 2006, 10:10 PM

I really hope she hits 1 million! Otherwise the tabloids will really pick on her; can't you imagine...

AYUMI HAMASAKI CAREER GOING DOWN THE DRAIN

1st ALBUM TO NOT REACH MILLIONS

LOL

Sweer · #14 24th January 2006, 10:27 PM

I wonder when or if the at all the album will reach one million at this decreasing rate

uhhh..no. as sum1 else mentioned already, MY STORY took about 6wks to pass the million. but i hope that sales will stay constant during the tour...

truehappiness · #16 24th January 2006, 11:50 PM

Well, the tour is probably a lot of promotion, especially since MY STORY got sales and stuff during it as well~

[Tour started in lateJan/Early Feb]

All the fans that go might probably even buy one at the concerts! :p

norain · #17 25th January 2006, 12:01 AM

It'll hit a million...eventually...like all sales

How can u say that? The sales aren't that bad.

These past 2 week have just been slow and then album is still in the top 5.

Coelacanth · #19 25th January 2006, 12:12 AM

This album doesn't deserve to sell a million in my opinion. The single tracks were all good, but then it just seems like she got lazy and churned out filler tracks like 'In The Corner' and 'Beautiful Day'. The album lacks a theme anyway. I think it would have at least fared better if B&D/Pride wasn't a single.

what do you mean by filler tracks?? In The Corner and Beautiful Day are much better than other album tracks. Oh you hurt me so much...

Just joking btw... LOL.

Back to the topic. According to the speed of the sales.. hmmn, let's say 20K next week... then 800K in total.. Then if 10K for the rest, that means it will need another 20 weeks (which is half of the year) to reach the milestone... oh well I have faith on ayu...
