wow... 46,000,000 millions CDs sold is real good! her income for 2001 was !!!! and i think i made a mistake about Bold & Delicious selling more than a million in a post in this forum lol.

hallelujah_united · #**105** 23rd March 2006, 10:38 AM

Yeah, look at that income indeed. 0_0

But I noticed it's been halving every year, so it looks slightly worrying too. Not that she doesn't have enough money for the rest of her life already though.

ayu_fan929 · #**106** 23rd March 2006, 09:05 PM

^yeah. i think a lot of the money lost was probably the CMs. i dont think shes doing as much as before rite?

Thank you so much for that.

gaby-gu · #**109** 26th March 2006, 04:33 AM

thanks so much for the info!!

wow she has sold a lot

Endlessoul · #**110** 26th March 2006, 06:55 AM

The number is still increasing little by little. I'm really curious about how high it can reach. [Infinity]lol

zeroshin888 · #**111** 26th March 2006, 08:43 PM

Ayu's income is drastically decreasing! :|

elepop · #**112** 22nd June 2006, 10:00 PM

Reviving this thread...

Haven't "A BALLADS" sold a million copies yet? Anybody have update on that album?

norain · #**113** 22nd June 2006, 10:55 PM

Well, I think every album sells more, it's sorta like how missunderstood shipped over one million, but only sold 870,000. So, she's had two failed million oricon charts...but eventually all her albums pass one million, but not counted on oricon. Right?/

[off topic ish]
Why is it that American artists are able to sell like.. 3 million+++ of an album so easily? :/

I just.. don't know why xD

And good job for Ayu!~ I hope she hits the 50 million mark by her 10th anniversary!

Uhhh, because America has twice the population of Japan. Also the albums are readily available worldwide.

What SunshineSlayer said. But what the US doesn't have I believe are crazy 1st week sales like Japan does. I think the highest in the US was like 2.5 million by NSYNC, and in Japan it's Hikki with like 3 million (even A BEST beat the US record)

Yeah, that is true. US albums tend to stay on the charts much longer and grow slowly. I think that is because in the US the singles are released after the album and in Japan they are released before.

i hope her income gets better!

thanks for the news!

emi♡ · #**120** 23rd June 2006, 03:43 AM

do they even release singles in the U.S? I've never heard of buying a single for American artists, unless they're new.

I do remember there being promotions for the song One Track Mind. Yeah...first sales are not really important. I think that there are so many singers, and they have really large fanbases.
