[Oricon] Ayu - 2nd highest revenue maker of 2007

[maaya]

go go ayu!!!

[criminal]

Eh, 2 BEST albums and all Ayumi managed was #2. Oh well. Here's hoping Ayumi's revenues stay in the 5m+ yen area.

o physical sales...that explains a lot....(ayu is still #1 then)

[Teyla]

Most likely yep.
ASIA TOUR must've been a huge profit, if avex doing it again on 2008 for ayu.
I doubt they would do it again if they wouldn't see some millions from it.

Doesn't include concert tours, CMs, downloads, or anything else...

Technically if they included tours, Mr. Children would have came out on top since they had a stadium and an arena tour this year (with a higher ticket price than Ayu)

kuu has a lot more stuff... I fear it will be kuu's last year at the top or maybe even 2nd on that list I guess... hopefully not, and I hope ayu will keep getting on top 1-5 there.

Looks like 7 million legal downloads really don't worth that much >_> where's hikki?

She doesn't count for this year because she didn't release an album^^ Yes she released a single but that doesn't really count if you think about it o.o; Koda and Ayumi released a lot that's why they're up there^^ Congrats to them! Especially Ayu! xD

Next year will be Hikki's turn ^-^

[balladesque]

That's great and all, but I thought Ayu's music in terms of quality were much better than Kuu's. But she like, fiend this year, so...

[BoBo]

Ayu did well she released realy small amount of stuff ^^ and yet she is 2nd Congrats

[mangoo_x3]

^ yes she may have released very little but Ayu's A BEST 2 costed almost $60, so I'm guessing without that she wouldn't of made it even near 2. Congrats Ayu! Congrats to Kumi to even though this is a huge drop from her last year.

[stardusties]

haha avex is totally dominating

[Beauty4123]

[ohsixthirty]

ayu didn't release a lot of stuff actually =P divided compilation album and 2 singles isn't a lot...

[cloud♥honey]

I don't care about Kuu winning this rank since Ayu will be always the winner to me.

[Jwiz]

with no BEST album to help ayu next year...Guilty must really do well, and it applies to other new singles and DVD too inorder to help ayu retain her top position :S

[CHAS_AYU]

That's good as Ayu didn't release much in 2007.
