I think may be the single sale will be higher after coming live preformance(music station...) , i think the songs(PVs) in the single is very good, it doesn't deserve that knid of sale

Avex is slacking. Seriously. Their falling way behind and they are barely having any Platinum sellers anymore. I can understand why they want to lower Ayu's power but still she's what makes Avex, well Avex.

The thing I'm wondering though is since mnW is a recut, if the PV will be in her next album/DVD collection. Then again you never know.
most likely not. i think my names women was the "special" of the single.

Marketing sales, ha. It's the most important tool used to advertise just about anything. What's wrong with Avex anyway? Focusing on new artists so much they give little promotion time to Ayu? .. That's no excuse at all.

I dont' know .. I really really liked this single .. it has been a while since Ayu singles made me listen and watch the MV so much time without getting bored. I think the public need to see these MVs more on TV, especially Step You. The MV is just brilliant and very original, not to mention she looks hot in it!

There definitly is a CM because I just watched it. Plus, with the tie-ups the songs have, promotion is definitly there. Though I have no idea how frequently the CM's are showing and what kind of time slots they are in. She has the last 3 days of her concert schedule coming so after that finishes and her TV performances start the sales may pick up. I was surprised when I heard about this release, and that it came with 3 PV's. Either they filmed them earlier and put the release on hold, or she did it DURING her touring schedule.

Well it just comes down to the Japanese public. She IS in their country and releasing there. They are her main focus. If they don't want the single they aren't going to buy it.

Heck, I love Ayu still and I'll end up buying this single but it doesn't really matter because it'll be the Japanese public that determines her 'future'.
