So Love songs album fully counts for 2011.
Also Five, which is more or less the same like 2 or even 3 singles.
(Not to forget the remix albums, but I don't know if they were downloadable on recochoku)
So a pretty normal Ayu year for the amount of new released songs.
It just feels less.

Just so happy about Love song being her most popular song!

Nope. A mini album isn't the same as 2 singles let alone 3, as the single tracks always tend to chart better digitally (separate TV perfs for each of the singles are kinda incomparable to almost non-existing mini album promo which only relied on the ToX tie-in). Remix albums are just candies for fans, casual listeners prolly didn't even know the albums were released. Considering the number of TV live performances and singles released Ayu was very inactive this year.

I was talking about the amount of new songs, please just read my post clearly.^^
Considering that she released about the same number of new songs as always.
But it's right that she did less for the overall public, means less releases an less lives.

I know that you were referring to the amount of songs, but you do know that the amount of songs released doesn't mean they'll be equally promoted as if those were actual singles which means a lot when it comes to people downloading stuff.
