[Charts+sales] A BEST 2 -- THREAD III

[njanjayrp]

Well I doubt Ku will ever sell as high, and Ai still didn't do it.

[ayu_fan929]

So far Mr. Children, Kuu, Ayu, YUI, EXILE and Kobukuro have sold more than a million this year.

[ayumisrael]

I even wouldn't say that 20 artists that sell mroe than a million per a year is bad, being one of them is a gift. Because all the thousands of other artists couldn't manage to do so.
Overally for this time ayu's sales are pretty good.

[rieGeir]

I'm pretty happy with Ayu's sales ^^ She's supreme

kuu has just sold more than 1 milion..and Ai Otsuka with Love PiECE will pass the milion..

[truehappiness]

LOVE PiECE is so not hitting above 800k.. D:

[TITANIC]

yea... maybe LOVe piece will pass the milion too..

[somethinglost]

Pretty comfortable sales for ayu, nothing to complain about.

LOL, I don't think so... specially because ai am best didn't do it.

[somethinglost]

LOVE PiECE will probably do 550K - 613K. She's not a big threat, I think the only major *new* threat would be if Hikki releases a new album this year... but who knows.

that's for sure.

[TITANIC]

a best black 2 689,858

a best 2 white 707,661

[norain]

if they both get 700k then that'll be perfect.

'cause secret did worse.

it's weird how Avril is the only non Asian one in the top ten..
so like, is she the most sucessful foreign artist in Japan or sumink?

i can't believe i used to like her. D:

[njanjayrp]

I said that Ku will never do it again, and not that she didn't already do it.^^, and I am not saying Ku's bad, just that her popularity didn't last that long.And I am sure that Ai will sell more than a million in total this year, but Love Piece probably won't go over 500 - 600k, though i am really expecting a nice album.

Well she's been pretty successful in Japan since her debut. Her past 2 albums reached the TOP 10 yearlies and she might even hold on to her #3 yearly position this year. But she's not the most successful foreign artist in Japan, I think that belongs to Mariah Carey.

I doubt that Hikki will release a new album this year...she's usually quite slow in terms of releasing albums. She'll probably release another one next year.

[namiie]

I think people buy -WHITE- a lot over -BLACK- because of the Countdown Live included on there, too. And yeah, I don't think LOVE PiECE will be a "threat"; hard to say about Kumizon though.

But yay sales are up again! I really hope both versions can reach 1,500,000 collectively

[ayu_fan929]

I think Hikki would still pass a million in total sales with the new single...
