^ if you click on "Ranking" from the recochoku home page it takes you to the chart for September 29th for some reason. But if, for example, you go to the album ranking (or just remove the "affiliate" part from the link) and then back to single ranking, it shows you the ranking for September 30th. Maybe that will solve the issue?

Yeah, I also see the 29/09 thing. But I see We are the QUEENS at #1 in the single section.

Ugh, I wasn't all that into the song the first time I heard it but now I can't stop listening to it. I love the chorus now. It's going to be killer live.

The verses now that I think about it really do sound kind of like an Ami Suzuki track, lol.

Seriously, her best song in 2016. I need more music like this from her. Everything is perfection, music, lyrics, even her voice sounds better than it did in MIJ.

I also have to say that We are the QUEENS is the best song by Ayu in 2016. I mean, I love songs like FLOWER, Survivor or Mad World too but I'd still prefer We are the QUEENS, although the lyrics aren't that good as in Mad World, FLOWER and so on (but I still find them very motivating). But I also have to say that when I first heard the line "Yes we are the QUEENS" at a-nation (although she first sang queen not queens right? They also wrote queen without the s I think but I'm glad they changed that) I just hoped it'll be a song and when I first heard the chorus in the CM I was like "OMG! YESSS!" and I couldn't wait for it's release! Now I'm listening to it on repeat as f**k! xD Btw the name gives me my name's WOMEN vibes.

Comparing We are the QUEENS with FLOWER or Mad World is kinda difficult, they are pretty different, We are the QUEENS is totally pop while the other 2 are more Rock influenced, so if you like more one than the other is probably due it's style

Well I get your point but I'm more that person for Rock influenced music so if I would choose after that it wouldn't be We are the QUEENS! Of course I like other genres too like pop and many others but what I try to say is that I don't like We are the QUEENS more because it's 'totally pop' but also because of it's epic intro. But I agree with you that it's hard to compare them. :/

Yeah, I get you, I'm also more attracted to her rock (well pop/rock) style but sometimes her pop songs are way better, but at the end that's the cool thing about Ayu, she has so many styles, you can go from ballads to really dance pop and then for a more rock song, it's pretty cool

i think ayu is too diverse to compare such different tracks of hers. we are the queens is j-pop 1-0-1 while flower is more rock. If we had a ballad instead, most of the people would argue that it is a ballad and they are too apart, so for me, its very hard to compare those songs. what i can say is that i prefer flower and madworld to we are the queens without saying i dont love it.

ayu has been on fire lately, im really happy with her stuff and how she is presenting herself. even the story with the divorce is not THAT much on focus. keep fighting ayu, this is what you have always done!

Btw did I miss something or did the Clash of Queens 30 secs CM on YouTube suddenly boomed after the release of We are the QUEENS!? I know it had many views before (can't remember how many tbh) but now it has so much like Ayu's more famous today as some maybe think just not that popular. I'm just so surprised!
