Western releases usually have a higher factor (i.e. x2).

^Why is that?

@Karen: I think it was a badp part on his record company for releasing that single. Look on the bright side, it's a top 20 hit.

@riozz: Ninki is a piece of crap. Just because Nami ranked #1, didn't mean she was going to get it. Nami had tough or shall I say soft competition (sales suck this week) and she didn't seem to bring it this time like she did the last time. As someone else said, her first week sales weren't even high when she did get #1. Her record company should've waited to release her album though. .....But then again, getting a #1 basically means, the record company released it at the right time. =/ At least it was a top 20 hit. I wanna hear EDEN now since austin dislikes it.

don't worry I'm not bummed . I had a feeling that DefSTAR wanted to test to see whether how good (or in this case how bad) a recut single will do for Ken because he has never released a recut single in his 13 years in the business

Obviously it's a bad bad bad move & not to mention severe competiton ain't helping matters as well

ah well , at least fake star & Canvas / Kimi wa su.te.ki are not going down to be his worst selling singles .

Besides , his debut single Precious Junk debuted at no.50 while his subsequent 2nd - 7th singles did not chart so that's not so bad

Never underestimate the power of Perfume. Those girls have staying power on the charts like nobody's business.

[CoriKaru]

I'm very quickly falling in love with Perfume myself. I'll get their GAME Album eventually.

Wow.... Seems like Madonna might get the #1 position this week.

Not Catchy Best again....

LF is really helping HEART STATION'S sales. I so wanna know how much it will sale this week. I still haven't seen LF yet though. I have to wait until next...final exams are a *****!

Nooooooo, Shushinchi fell... Please rise back to the top Shuchi!

I didn't mGT released a single. Wow, I'm so late.

What happened to Arashi?! They fell so far!!

[AyuGAME]

this week sales is so slow...

[Luv ~Venus~]

^Just like last week. Tbh, I think we wamt see any huge sales for both the single and album charts until KAT-TUN or another JE group releases somthin'. Well, at least this year's sales are better than last year.

[ayu_fan929]

NEWS is releasing next week.

[ll moments ll]

^ yup! & KAT-TUN the week after.

i'm curious about both of their sales. i hope "SUMMER TIME" beats out "Taiyou no Namida" and i wonder if "DON'T U EVER STOP" will sell more than "Soba ni Iru ne". the single is only $5.

yah.. but only for ALbum because single sales weaker than last year
last year could surpass 1 million copies. 2008 highest single sales only 400K
