Yuck, #24 today. Not surprised though, there's no tie-ins for this album, it's barely being promoted, plus there's only been one single before it. I think if melody. wanted this album to do as well as the other three she would've had more singles and there would've been a lot more promotion. I honestly think that melody. jsut wanted to put this album out, regardless of how good or bad it sells.

Ranking is not that important; her sales are pretty low compared to her other albums...I think a lot of people are just buying the Haruka single instead (it's still doing fairly well on the charts)

Finally someone else who agrees about the album! Everyone was saying it's so good but I didn't care for it that much. Maybe I just need to listen to it again but the ballads were so average sounding to me.

^my thoughts exactly.

it pleasant enough, but i havent really been able to get into it as much as everyone else seems to.

although the first press packaging is SPECTACULAR and really made it worth the purchase for me.

Only listened to her new album Lei Aloha now

Wow, it's excellent. Like, pretty good stuff! I've been awaiting for a long time for a completely refreshing and soothing JPOP album that doesn't sound dull...since Mika Nakahima can't really give this to us anymore, this was actually a surprise.

I personally got extremely nostalgic at the song "No Return"...it just reminded me of the days rina aiuchi used to make really good songs. It has such a rina aiuchi feel to it.

It's a pretty good album to listen while studying or when going to sleep! Great!

It's a shame it's not selling so well, but it's probably not the most important thing to melody., as austin. | pointed out. I agree that it's not selling well because it's not being promoted too heavily and because there's only been one single released for it. It also ranked so low because it's so different from anything she's ever done, in my opinion. I guess you could compare this to Ayumi's B&D and how low its position was because it was so different from her previous works.

YES! Anyone wanna get me his number?

I haven't listened to Lei Aloha yet, mainly because people have said either neutral/negative things about it...I think I'll try to give it a listen this weekend. I hope it's good!
