Number of Followers: 610,606K
Total Streams: 164,834,132M

I noticed Ayu Trance Complete Edition kept the streams counts from the original, at least for some of the songs lol

No prob! And welcome back!!

Yeah they always do it partially, no zeal whatsoever!

[Evan Odinson]

^Thanks!!

So here goes a new weekly update!

Number of followers: 612,792K
Total Streams: 166,007,511M

SEASONS is just 35K streams away to hit 9M, JEWEL about 60K from 2M streams and I am... about 80K from 1M streams! let's try to boost those songs lol

Ohia no Ki is getting closer to 800K streams mark! Dreamed a Dream is also getting close to her TOP 50 with near 600K streams and Haru Yo Koi has 450K, sadly 23rd monster doesn't seem to be performing that well, it's been stuck at 180K for a while now.

Thanks for the update!

Too bad about 23rd Monster. It surprises me too, because Ayu so clearly likes that song--I felt like she pushed it more than the other two with the live performances and the teaser version and the audio-only version and then the video...

[!Lawi!]

I still listen to 23rd Monster on a daily basis. I hadn't been obsessed with a song of hers for so long in a while!

Glad to read the other two are doing well though!

SEASONS just hit 9M streams!! JEWEL is just about 50K away from 2M streams!

[Evan Odinson]

It's been awhile again, so let's go with a new update!

Number of Followers: 621,413K

Total Streams: 170,182,276M

Dearest is about 70K streams to hit 9M, JEWEL is just 2K away from 2M streams, I am... kinda stuck, still about 60k streams to hit 1M streams.

[Evan Odinson]

Almost a month without updates lol sorry about that!

Followers: 627,385K
Total Streams: 173,026,594M

Dearest is her 5th song to reach 8M streams! BLUE BIRD is just 200K streams away to hit 9M

Voyage is 100K streams away to hit 6M! JEWEL hit 2M streams and Fly High is just about 150K streams away to reach 2M as well.

I am... is about 40K to finally hit 1M streams and ohia no ki has entered her TOP50 with 830K streams surpassing classics like poker face or NEVER EVER.

Haru yo Koi is pretty close to hit 500K streams! 23rd just hit 200K (kinda weird to me this is her less popular song on the platform from her recent releases lol)

[//ABEST]

imo Dreamed a Dream and Haru yo, Koi are masterpieces she hasn't delivered in couple of years but 23rd Monster is kinda boring to my ears.. i barely never listen to it, it doesn't feel fresh or new. more like a song from 2006-2008 which never saw it's release until this year but this is just my opinion, many seems to really enjoy it

at first I was like WOW but it lasted like a day and then forgot about it

[koumori]

Thank you so much for the update! It's really interesting to see the streaming stats of the most recent singles for sure.

[njanjayrp]

23rd Monster falls into the (don’t) Leave me alone, decision, GAME etc. type of song. Back in the day it would have been either an album promo track or the back side of a double a-side single ��

haha well there's always this debate, technically speaking the year 2000 was still part of the 90's since current calendars counts decades starting with the first year 1 and not year Zero, but experts says both ways are acceptable since most people thinks it goes from zero to 9, so yeah, kinda confusing but technically not wrong lol

It's so odd that Ayu only has one song in that 00's playlist... Sometimes I feel like Japan likes to pretend her career doesn't exist.

But if I understood it right, it's a list of most streamed songs that were released in 00s, it's not a selection made by a team of limited people.

EDIT: I was reading you again and I realized you are criticizing the audience in general hahaha I think it's also bizarre to see only 2 Utada songs in this list.

Haters are probably angry that she's still successful. Sold-out tie-in merchandise? A top-selling fictionalized autobiography-turned-drama? Concerts that sell well and an Instagram with more followers than many current stars?

How dare someone that clean people find embarrassing and that young people aren't into continue so shamelessly living her life as she wants and making money at it! She doesn't suit the current, more modest mores and people have passionate feelings about her, otherwise there wouldn't be hundreds of comments on every little article that comes out describing the newest thing she said on her Instagram. They might want to forget her, but they can't! And eventually, divas and bling will come back into fashion.

[Evan Odinson]

There's also the fact that many songs are worldwide famous for certain 90's anime, so they get more streams thanks to the anime fans around the world unlike Ayu, her biggest hits aren't anime/videogames ties-in (Dearest would be the only "big" in her ties-in, her Tales Of openings are great but the franchise is not as international and popular as idk final fantasy lol) so her biggest hits such a BLUE BIRD, SEASONS, M, Boys & Girls, Voyage, etc mostly receive streams only in Japan and her international fanbase of course, but still there's a big difference compared to hit anime songs.

^ lol, though Seasons came out in 2000.

It's always debatable, but technically the 90s is a decade that spans the time period between January 1, 1991, and December 31, 2000.
