Finally got my "JAPAN PREMIUM BEST & MORE" this afternoon.

...had to pay $27.90 CAD in duty fees, though.

You ordered from CDJ? @_@ I'm scared because this is my first time ordering from them >_>

I would only worry if you used FedEx.

Both times I've used FedEx at CDJ, the box was long because it had a poster in it and both times one of the corners of the box was crushed down. I think FedEx was trying to make room in their planes and smashed the box as much as they could. As a result, both posters were slightly bent while rolled up and thus have slight creases running down them.

Are you close to Mississauga? I think it's faster for some people if you're closer to one of their distribution centres.

For some reason they sent my package to Winnipeg, Manitoba first because it's geographically closer to where I am (Northwestern Ontario) but I guess they probably don't ship to Ontario from there so they had to redirect it to Mississauga. I don't know why it had to go to Tennesse to get to Mississauga, though.

Yup I live close so that's probably why.
But whenever I've had tracked packages they always go all over the place too!
I'm so addicted to all the songs from the mini album

There was a CM... but still, a couple TV lives wouldn't have hurt. :/

That's so sad.

SURREAL__RAINBOW · #**287** 5th March 2011, 08:26 AM

it is just sad how it won't even reach 10k yet....

NintendoHTF1242 · #**288** 5th March 2011, 09:32 AM

Listened to the PREMIUM BEST. The old songs that I love already I still love. Kanashimi wa Yuki ni Nemurni or whatever grew on me, finally. Kaze ni Mukau Hana is still kind of boring. BALLAD also grew on me.

On the bonus CD, I only like Ai wa Chikara and Venus Flower.

I don't understand the point of Wasurenaide :/ Did S'capade just play the instruments or something? Because it's useless for me to tag it as Wasurenaide feat. alan / S'capade. Just like how David Guetta has tracks that feature artists when he doesn't even sing. I understand he produced the track, but ugh whatever maybe I'm just too much of a nitpicker with this stuff.

IF YOU are wondering what is Lazona Kawasaki, i found this:

Lazona Kawasaki Plaza (ラゾーナ川崎プラザ, Razōna Kawasaki puraza?) is a shopping mall in Saiwai-ku, Kawasaki, Kanagawa, Japan. The mall adjoins the west side Kawasaki Station.

Wikipedia, I love U !!!

AyumiAi · #**295** 6th March 2011, 12:03 AM

Bigtop · #**297** 6th March 2011, 01:16 AM

That's really interesting! I hope she gets better with her sales, because we're quite a bit appalled with the recent numbers in the past few days...

pommy48 · #**298** 6th March 2011, 01:18 AM

Lol but actually it's doing really good for a best album

I never expected it to do this good. I thought it would fall off the charts after 2 days~

ストロボ・EdGE · #**299** 6th March 2011, 04:38 AM

^Not to be the pooper but... isn't it kind of... not good for a best album? Since those typically sell most of the time several times more than a studio album, at least in Japan.

I thought at the very least 75-100(?)K in the long run would've been good (for her) and expected.

Polyrhythm · #**300** 6th March 2011, 04:43 AM

alan was never that popular in the first place though....why would you expect her to sell 75-100k out of the blue? Her only real hit was Kuon no Kawa after all...so its already a miracle she's charting at all....underpromoted and all.
