Yeah lol, I wrote where it reached on the chart and you were still askin', but nevermind.
I love passionate people 'bout Thelma. Without U as a single really charted horrible, and Lets party also. But I didnt see she was promoting Let's party anyway? And yeah, covers are ... not attractive. Covers for Emotions were amazing!

So I don't follow Thelma like, at all. And I was just browsing and listened to Kaeru Basho, and then to see that it was left off the album blows my mind. I mean, really... that song is really beautiful and Thelma looks great.

However, the covers for WILL are so bland... They look like they were taken when she wasn't ready :S

It's unfortunate to see her daily/weekly sales, but that's how the Japanese music industry goes :/ People who don't, in my opinion, qualify for high sales achieve them, and people who should be way more appreciated end up selling squat. While I wouldn't say she has original music, her voice is undeniably good.

the japanese music industry generally focuses too much on image instead of talent.

sigh i'm so sad that i couldn't buy WILL (LE) even if i wanted to, the cover is just too much for me... and i REALLY wanted those bonus tracks.

seeing these sales make me wonder, is UNIVERSAL J gonna still be keeping her if her sales don't improve? or will they just give up on her and have her dropped.. (i sure hope that doesn't happen though -i still want more songs from her!-) but if that ever happens, i would love to see how she would do on other labels.

Aoyama is like Kanon Wakeshima in the sense that both of them have really good songs in their discography but their material can't sell :3

Anyway , WILL is not as bad as I thought & I appericate the bulkload of album tracks found in here . It's no Emotions but it's quite a followup

Poor Thelma.

I wonder if her label will drop her because of this. She needs a really big hit music wise to boost her career. She makes great music and it's sad that not many individuals see that. That's how the industry is I guess.

she totally needs some sort of "new image" i guess or something, i just don't know why she's selling sooo low. and i thought that 4minute being featured on WITHOUT U would help sales, but it actually almost did worse than let's party/23

its sad since she composed and wrote most of her album, and theme of the album is beautiful 'be strong, be alive, enjoy life'. I wish she would switched labels so she can get decent promo.
