I say 20.000 in it's debute, and it will hold on pretty well and get a maximum of 90.000 sales... What do they expect, really? It's like avex is trying to make her flop.

I predict 40,000~ first day sales and 130,000~ by the end of its run. I'm just glad she is releasing a new song.

I agree...

I don't understand why she would release something like this...or is that how she wants? She's 33 already, going to turn 34 this October...

And don't forget there's SMAP (Johnny's!), so I'm sorry Ayu, but NO #1 here...

PROMOTIONS I HOPE FOR ASB:

•13 DAYS TV LIVE 2 SONG (1 FROM DISC-N & 1 FROM DISC-A) EACH DAY
•NEW MAGAZINE SHOOTS/COVERS, LOTS OF IT
•TONS OF CMS
•A LIVE PERFORMANCE OF YOU & ME
•HOARDS OF BILLBOARDS/POSTERS WITH AYU'S ASDFGHJKL ASB COVER'S FACE ALL OVER JAPAN


I wonder if it could beat A BEST sales with these

I can't wait for You and Me and the PV. if this song is pretty good and the PV is done on the past-ayu level, it will also help the sales. and that matters - they need to air promotional CM every hour on TV!

She should do that with a release that is worthy of being promoted everywhere. You know, like a single. Not a compilation album, on which most all the dated tracks already appeared on compilation albums and just one new song (cough desperate recycling in hopes to get a #1 spot, which most probably won't be granted for this release omg). I want ayu's face ALL OVER TOKYO! On the busses, cars, buildings, in hotelrooms, toilets, restaurants, hospitals, trafficlights, airplanes and lastly I want her to do the big ass painting which Namie Amuro did for her Uncontrolled album!

She should do this for her upcoming single, and that might be the upcoming ToX song!

^Well yeah. But A BEST is a best album, so she have to do it with another best. But not with ASB lol omg


There's so many hope for that ToX song that better be kicking ass, Ayu!

^ OMFG I totally misread your post! I thought you wanted the promotion for this release LOL! (I also couldn't make up what ASB meant (A SUMMER BEST)... LOL I NEED TO GET SOME SLEEP)

Yes I agree! This kind of promotion is only for BEST albums, though I feel that she needs to boast her sales a bit. It seems that Japan now only actively follow her tours and such and kinda slipped with the music. It was sad seeing Party Queen chart on the 2nd place and not getting higher, and this all was to blame on the lousy promotion! So idk I think she should release something that has been promoted heavily so she can smack all those overrated J-POP/K-POP groups in their 48 membered faces!

I think she'll do something amazing with the ToX song though. And as much as I respect several people liking Timmy's work, I hope she did the song with Yuta Nakano again! This is the most anticipated release for me this year .

It could sell more than a remix album and less than a studio album.
Maybe 80k-90k ?

Party Queen is a very sad tragedy. Seemed the all material-in-one release gimmick is not good. But at least it managed to grab the 2nd spot daily/weekly.

Although, HLS is, according to reviews, are going well, and she have many dates, to boot! She's still in!

Ayu should actually compose again, and hire her director for the ourselves/BoY/alterna pv's. those three are her best imo. plus the mammoth promotions, and if the ToX song would be just as that, we can guarantee a platinum hit.
