^ Yeah Black Eyed Peas released a lot of good hits which made my clubbing days fun. Nowadays most urban stuff is on a less lighthearted tone.

Like sora-kara said I was speaking about musical quality and not fame

Yay, boredom! =D

lotta love in one shirt


thanks for the hq cover!! =3

[PrincessAyu]

Great titles she has on that shirt ^^

Are there lyric scans available too? ;-; overall great booklet btw <3 LOVE YELLOW

[zeroshin888]

Her sales for LAST ANGEL is seriously low, omg, I'm so surprised. No offence, but maybe it's time for Kuu to bring back her **** image........ It seems to me that japanese really liked it when she was dressing in a revealing way.

[ayu_fan929]

I think they like the cute image a lot more (i.e. Koi no Tsubomi, girls, Sora etc.)

i'm thinking her sales hurt because it was release with 3 strong competitors...

[greggerz189]

^You're right. I was a bit surprised at how NEWS debuted at number one, but the fact that they released the single the same day as their album pretty much secured their position. Quite frankly, I'm WAY surprised that they beat out KOBUKURO's new single, but for sure, their new single will out-chart NEWS' single. Kuu had no chance against KOBUKURO, and though this single was really great musically, it sure as hell wasn't SEXY enough for her to have a competing chance. I would rather see NEWS at rank 3, with Kuu at rank 2, and KOBUKURO at rank 1.

Why? NEWS beat Kobukuro in March (and Tsubomi was a better song too)

[AyuHamasaki01]

I said it before...

Kuu should bring back her boobies

[elepop]

She should bring the great stuff from the "secret" days. Period.

[MsMiyabi]

^ I agree to that. I still love that CD. So bad it didn't do so well.

[Beauty4123]

happy birthday to kumi! i think it's the 13th already in japan, lol.

[AyuHamasaki01]

^YEEESS! that's true...

secret didn't do so well?
secret sold huge x_x.
It doesn't have to sell a million to sell good
500,000 is w-o-w.

But dear [who lived in my basement ], are you comparing those sales to now, because back then, a really good album used to sell a million copies+!

[Empry]

From what I've know, is that because secret sold so well (at that time kumi wasn't so popular) avex decided to release best first things and the rest is history, of course.

OMFGYESPLZ.

[alt.total-loser]

Oh, I wonder if what all the haters predicted in 2006 is coming true?

[Luv ~Venus~]

I think Kumiko is really tryin' to prove to us that she can hold her without her '****' side. But it seems that her single sales have been on slope since she released Cherry Girl/Unmei and she was WILD in the CG PV. Maybe her fans want something new from her instead her cute or wild side. =/

@ATL: Kumiko is releasing too much. In J-music fans eyes, she is like another Ayu except she doesn't change up her style to keep interested. SHe needs to like people miss her...you know, so that when she does release, it'll give a boost popularity again. IMO of course!
