LOL

it looks that way , Kevin .

I just wonder where the other 56K + copies are ?

[ayumixfan]

^ oh no =( ~! Rocket Sneakers/OnexTime is doing sso poorly. I thought it could AT LEAST sell 50k being a double a side >< ~!

^ LMAO I wonder too. Maybe Ai bought them herself LOL

[Fitst]

The last two singles really were not good AT ALL. I have liked Ai for a long time, but I can't say I have listened to any of the new songs (including b sides) more than 5 times each... if that. I know it sounds like I'm not giving them a chance... but I really just do not like them. Its a shame because LOVE PiECE was her best album IMO.

^ Really? I loved the Pocket Single and I like Rocket Sneakers and OnexTime lol ~ I have to admit it isn't as good as her love piece stuff which was amazing XD ~! Poor Ai v_v ~! She is probably just in a slump ^^ lol

I love Pocket!!!!!
but I was NOT feelin' Rocket Sneaker / One Time...
Hopefully next single will be good for more people cause I think a lot of people didn't particularly care for this one

I havent listened to many of Ai's songs apart from ones from her drama Tokyo freinds XD TBH im not that bigger expert, but she has a cute voice, good attitude and shes really pretty. sometimes her songs can be a bit messy, but overall they are cute and have a good lively beat. I shud listen to Rocket and some of her more recent songs to see if they are as good as songs like Peach etc.

I still think she should have made a PV for One x Time

The PV for Rocket Sneaker was quite low budget & etc

if Avex were to give her a bigger budget to make PVs for both songs , it probably can sell well

no wonder people felt short changed

wooow. What certified for RS/OXT??
Silver?

I dunno, her PVs have never seemed to be something so amazing or anything but before they were simple and nice. Like Daisuki da yo, it was a simple but adorable PV that brought out the emotions. Even CHU-LIP and PEACH weren't that high-budget but had a fun element that made the viewer wanna watch. The PV for Rocket Sneaker was just...weird...I couldn't even sit through the whole thing once X_X

PV for Daisuki da yo was boring , I almost fell asleep watching it

I only watched Rocket Sneaker once & that's it for me

Some of her PVs are really nice & entertaining like Yumekui (even though techincally she's not there in the cartoon) , Planetarium (I still love this song/PV til now . It helps that ever since I watched the 1st season of Hana Yori Dango , I appericate the song more than ever)

CHU-LIP's just well you know haha

[ayumixfan]

^I So agree with daisuki da yo v_v ~! it wasn't that great =/

OMGOSH I love the CHU-LIP PV XD So funny ~! but then again I like really weird things o_o!

daisuki da yo - yeah it's quite boring but the LOVE bunny version's <3

CHU-LIP -
