I think more or less she appeared in those proflie-ic mags like PopTeen , SCawaii & she also did performed at those music platform shows like MUSIC STATION , it's not like avex trax didn't give her enough .

They did but obviously the public think otherwise

either that or I boil it down to tough competition this week

Well GLAY's and co. numbers aren't big either.
I mean the problem is not MOON's position but more the sales =P.

The scandal did have a great impact on Japan, maybe that's on of the things why the single doesn't sell that well

yup cos if it's just 1 song then I can understand but it's not since it contains 4 singles + 2 PVs were made for it

maybe the PVs contribute to the fact that MOON's selling beyond expectations cos they are quite crap to begin with

maybe

but I thought people was getting over it...gosh it was in january/february
and now we are in june...


the sales are low =S not good for a 4 track singles...

[AyuHamasaki01]

^I just made a guess. But I think this single isn't as good as her other 4-songs singles (though it better than LOVE&HONEY IMO)

[ayumisrael]

Well I don't want to know what would happen if it was 1 a-side or 2 a-sides with no b-sides =P

It's either her scandal decreased her popularity or her popularity just dropped.

maybe it isnt her era anymore... well, just my personally thought~

[KarenPang]

the scandal could have play a part in the below sales exceptations of MOON .

Then again maybe she already reached her peak in popularity after she put out her BEST FT / 12 singles / BEST SS / Black Cherry stuff ?

cos these albums/singles sold quite a fair chunk of amount especially for BEST SS & BC too

I think you are right.

IMO, she should've released a kick ass summer single like 4 hot wave and not such a crappy (my opinion) single like this.

[Cloudsoldier]

i have already concluded that her scandal somehow already affect her popularity. =(

[prussian blue]

^i think this single isnt that bad but her scandal really affecting the sale

we couldnt do much and expect to much from the japanese after all, its all fated~ maybe one day she will rise again like namie do now? lol i'm talking like kuu's popluarity is dropping that huge, sorry

the fact is that I think some new songs have ressemblances with older ones
for exemple the ballads...after you the ballads kinda sound like each other...


maybe she could have come back with a strong 2 tracks single
2 A-SIDE and you put some funky//great remixes , instrumentals
and 2 PVS

maybe it would have helped?
we'll never really know. I just hope the next will be better/sales will be better

[AyuHamasaki01]

^Well, I think all Kuu's ballads are like each other.

[KarenPang]

no offense Minna but how can the ballads look like each other -_-"'

you mean sound like each other

[AyuHamasaki01]

^they look like each other (if you look at the) with sound...

did that even make sense?

lol sorry for that Minna

don't worry my Eng's not perfect , in fact I flunked it in secondary school in my O levels

the odd thing was that I passed my Chinese where in the 1st place I speak it even less than at home -_-"'

[minna]

let's talk about kuu now...
XD


I'm wondering what she's going to sing at a-nation?
LADY GO?

[KarenPang]

maybe but definitely be songs from MOON

will be a bit strange if she did an old no. , it doesn't sound/look right if that were to happen
