Eh! Heart Station is now Hikki's worst charting and selling single. Shame on you, EMI! Could've at least through a couple of remixes as an incentive. Oh, well. I think it'll break 100K eventually though.

Hmm...Kingdom might break the 700K in the long run. It might even stay in the top 100 longer because Kuu is returning soon. Kingdom did blow GUILTY out of the water though. Congrats Kuu!

[TITANIC]

kingdom decline so much.

yah the FACE possible to pass 200K

It seems like you're pretty happy about it Shannese

And still Kingdom's doing crappy compared to BC... It's pretty a flop.
I doubt now that it can even reach 700,000 or even 650,000?

I wonder if hikki's album can outsell kumi's Kingdom because HS/SG pretty ruined it >_<

[TITANIC]

i guess kingdom wont have long run chart...

at least ayu will sell more than 1 million copies in 2008, that's fine

Most likely, she just need to sell 430,000 single/album/DVD whatever copies and she reach an overall million, on 2005 she had like 46 million copies sold since her debut I wonder if she should sell over 50,000,000 soon...

I think so too riozz cos I think regardless whether the scandal happened or not , I doubt Kingdom wouldn't do as well as Black Cherry .

Compared to Black Cherry , Kingdom's weaker . Could tell especially since I personally felt that BC's a great album .

maybe the 50 million sales included her Asian or worldwide sales ?

Well I think that Kingdom is better by a bit but her popularity isn't exactly on the rising =P

BC
1st Week - 502,426
2nd+3rd Weeks - 186,000
4th Week - 114,032
5th Week - 57,804
6th Week - 39,122

Total: 899,384

Kingdom

1st Week - 421,302
2nd+3rd Week - 123,103
4th Week - 16,932
5th Week - 11,497
6th Week - 6,659

Total : 579,493

HUGE difference BC was still on top 10 while Kingdom is already out of the top 30 >_>

Secret of ayu sold 599,876 in 5 weeks and were still on top 10 and if Kingdom won't outsell ayu's Secret then kumi is in trouble >_<

No, oricon doesn't count overseas sales, 46,000,000 were just album+single copies that were sold in Japan.
I was refering to the issue of oricon with Mr.Children's album on 2005 so they posted that ayu has sold over 46 million copies and the 4th best selling japanese artist after B'z, Mr. Children and Southren All Stars which are all boy bands.

Probably. I think HEART STATION can sell at least 700k.

Hopefully, I'm not to keen about sales nowadays because even with successful singles and stuff it seems that sales are just aren't what they were even a year ago.

I know that's quite a huge drastic drop especially since it has been less than 2 months + since Kingdom was released .

Poor Koda , I really feel for her

[ayumisrael]

Here's the tablet from the article I was talking about, it was on March 2007 it appears (lol stupid memory) and it said that ayu sold more than 45,500,000 album+single copies to that date, now she most likely reached to 47,000,000 with the singles, A BEST 2 and GUILTY so it's 3 milllions to go that she can sell over 50,000,000 XD.

[TITANIC]

go ayu...
3 million copies more.. so she can surpass southern all star.. is it??
