[Charts & Rankings] The Official Oricon Thread ~Zutto.../Last Minute/Walk~

[brener]

^ yup. Ayu, Namie, Kumi, Kana... they're all on the same level of single sales =)

[pimenta]

^^ True. We all know Namie is the one female solo that has exceptional album sales now a days, and even her single sales aren't much better than this. It's too much to expect Ayu to have those amazing sales she used to when no female solo artist is able to do so now a days, it's not just her who suffered this drop (and her sales drop isn't nearly as bad as many other female solos, it's kinda depressing how things are going)...

I think more and more the digital sales are having a much more important role, the general public doesn't buy many CDs anymore, specially singles, they download most of it, and on the digital rankings Ayu's single doing amazingly

That sucks, I love the extra content Japanese singles tend to have. (Then again, I love instrumentals lol).

歌手・浜崎あゆみ(36)の53作目のシングル「Zutto.../Last minute/Walk」(12月24日発売)が初週2.8万枚を売り上げ、2015/1/5付週間シングルランキングで5位に初登場した。シングルTOP10入りは、初TOP10入りとなった「T rust」(1998年8月発売)から今作で50作目。1968年1月のランキング発表開始以来、ソロアー ティストによるシングル50作目のTOP10入りは史上初の快挙となった。

Ayu is the first solo-artist to send 50 singles into the top 10 with this one (entering the chart @ #5?). Technically it's her 52nd top 10 entry but I don't think they include Dream ON or a song is born because they're collaborations.

It doesn't inlcude poker face and YOU since they didn't enter the top 10.

Dream ON is under URATA NAOYA and a song is born isn't counted as an ayu single (like the others).

^ They didn't include Terminal either. It didn't even manage to get in the top 20, which is even sadder.

Well, it's a recut single with no PV and just one remix, which isn't that great.
It wasn't expected to do much.

This single, on the other hand, is doing pretty well.

I agree they should join physical and digital sells in one chart.

I know. I'm saying that technically she has 52 WITH Dream ON and a song is born since they're featuring credits. Most charts include collaborations with an artists total (Billboard, OOC, etc.) so I'm not sure why Oricon doesn't.

^ Sadly it didn't outsell Feel the love/Merry-go-round's first week... but still a great achievement to be in top 5, despite of the huge competition!!

My thoughts exactly who care about sales at this point in time ?

And after what I saw at Yoyogi when I went to buy her countdown live goods , that's all it matters at the end of the day
