^ Neither LOVE & TRUTH nor LOVE LETTER are good songs.

I am not being naive. I just think that... since this is Ayumi's forum, those think should not be said here. We all here because we support her. Let the dark side be unspoken, that's what I think ^^

I don't think BoA can manage YUI. YUI's on a roll right now, while BoA's continuously mediocre. It's a smart move to include 3 main tracks on LOVE LETTER, but they're B-sides and theme song of a movie starring Erika Sawajiri > 2 B-sides, in my opinion.
I'd love to be wrong, though.

Lee_Hamasaki · #**163** 20th September 2007, 06:17 PM

BoA can't win versus Yui in this moment. Not in Japan at least

Luv ~Venus~ · #**164** 20th September 2007, 08:53 PM

No one has faith in BoA!

#**165** 20th September 2007, 08:54 PM

^ i do! just not this week.

Raleigh · #**166** 20th September 2007, 08:55 PM

Well BoA's sales haven't been that great lately so I don't have big expectations for this single.

I haven't heard LOVE & TRUTH, but I think LOVE LETTER is an awesome song, and an awesome single as well.
Anyway, sales are not that good, and I thought this single would do better than g/f.. Well, let's wait some more time to see if this single can stay longer in the charts ^^'

**Calico** · #**168** 20th September 2007, 09:17 PM

Just out of curiosity, what is Ayu's lowest selling single? (I know it must be one of her early ones, but I just have to wonder...) The irony would be too great.

Sasha · #**169** 20th September 2007, 09:30 PM

I think that BoA's LOVE LETTER would sale more. Japanese are really strange about music so if we like something it's don't mean that japanese will like it too.

Lee_Hamasaki · #**170** 20th September 2007, 09:32 PM

No. Her lowest selling single is her first single: poker face. Of course nothing from nothing but it is not a "real single".

All of the singles of A song For Xx sold really low.

Aisha_Angel · #**171** 20th September 2007, 09:35 PM

second day sales went up, hurray! If Ayu can get 40,000+ within the next three days she's got herself a 100,000-seller for sure.

Olw---A · #**172** 20th September 2007, 09:47 PM

YEAH DESPITE OF EVERYTHING
GOOOO AYUUUUUUU !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i prefer that Ayu sales less with goodmusic than sale a lil more with glitter-like songs...

futureLOVE · #**173** 20th September 2007, 09:50 PM

hmm...this reminds me of the Secret situation...most of the material on that album was of rock nature...and t2m is definately a rock single..

maybe it's just that the japanese don't favore rock singles.

If anything I was attacking avex and not her.

sure! A song for Xx stayed for three weeks at the top of the oricon album chart. A song for Xx (album) was a success for ayumi. The singles of A song for xx no ^^

I agree in a way. I'm pretty sure that avex will do anything possible to maintain Ayu's streak. It's easy to see how they try to release her singles not to be in direct competition with other huge artists.

Lee_Hamasaki · #**178** 20th September 2007, 11:04 PM

sometimes a competition can increase the sales of both artists...ok maybe ayu can't take number 1 but maybe the sales are better.

stardusties · #**179** 20th September 2007, 11:04 PM

people need to cut the itunes.jp unmbilical cord and BUY THE SINGLES!!!! *shakes fist at Japan*

Jesus Christ what a low number for FIRST....

but I'm sooo glad she's first :3...tp as always <3!

heartplace83 · #**180** 20th September 2007, 11:42 PM

just for the fact that the single is really good, is enough for me. sales doesnt really matter anymore. and im sure ayu knows that better than anyone of us. and i dont even think that she releases anything now with hopes that it would sell miracalously like before. shes been there n done that, all she cares now is to make good music for us.
Congrats for the no 1 ;_)
