[Translation] [2013] ayu loses sales record to AKB48 (Article)

[JesA]

It's all about trends. Sales records are nice while they're going, but everything comes to an end eventually. Ayu isn't trendy anymore. Akb is getting their limelight for now, but as a huge AKB fan, I accept the fact that it'll fall apart sometime in the future.

But yeah, my Japanese fans make fun of me all the time for still listening to Ayu and Namie :p Just like my American fans make fun of me for listening to Madonna.
