I know , Oricon a bit silly not to do so especially since in this century , it's the age where digital sales are going to be more superior than their CD sales counterpart .

They really should consider to include digital sales in the mix cos I'm sure it will sorta make the equation more balance in that sense

yeah, Oricon needs to get with the program...
I don't remember ayaka's digital sales but maybe CLAP & LOVE / Why would have benefitted from it. That single was gold and was her first (and only) one to be released in 2 formats. She still got 5, it doesn't make sense. Must have been hard competition...

However Sing to the Sky looks to be doing well from that NINKI
I really hope she breaks the million mark!! I already like this album more than First Message (although the cover is miles worse)

I don't know how the digital sales for For today were but it should have been released as a single though

STOS - I hope so although it's going to be a bit difficult to say whether can that be done .

First Message was really good , I hope the non singles songs on STOS will be on par if not slightly more superior than the singles on the album

Am relieved that WINDING ROAD's included in the album

I'm going to listen to WINDING ROAD soon, it didn't grab me at first listen but I'm finding a lot of ayaka songs are beginning to hook me when they didn't at first.

I think some of the previews sound great so I want to hear some full versions NOW! hehehe

First Message had its gems though...1,2,3,4
And that cover...OMG I LOVE IT!

And I agree, For today should have been a single

First Message - yup 1.2.3.4 is really good , I also like Kimi no Power to Otona no Furi too

Start to 0 (Love) & Sha la la are great as well

I haven't listened to the previews of the new songs on STOS but I'm going to wait til the album's leaked out

That's good you're waiting for the album to come and listen to the album in full. I would've done that but truthfully I wasn't that excited for the album when I listened to the previews so I figured there would be no harm.
I really look forward to certain some of those new songs!!

for me some of the song titles on STOS are interesting like Mahoutsukai no Shiwaza (魔法使いのしわざ; The Magician's Deeds) & Gold Star . I hope it will sound as interesting as the titles

Well, I really liked the preview for Gold Star
魔法使いのしわざ didn't really interest me as much as others
愛も嘘も真実 (Love, Lies and Truth) and 今夜も星に抱かれて (Wrapped In The Stars Tonight) sound like awesome titles and have the previews to back it up
