Sad but true.

I want translations for NaNaNa and Shake It!

Those numbers do not reflect final sales. Someone said they don't even include pre-orders. I think Ayu still has a really good chance of outselling Acid Black Cherry.

Can anyone who's got their copy rip the album in FLAC if possible, please?

i cant wait to get the power of music upload!
im almost shaking in my chair... lol
Also... first day sales ( on a holiday no less) I dont think will have that big effect... I would be surprised if the sales drop tomorrow.

I just managed to track and my copy is still in Japan *sobs*

Since it doesn't look like that the photos taken in London for the album were not used at all. I wonder if they will pop up on something else or was it like I am... and ayu scratched the old photo shoot for the album for a new one

I'm optimistic about sales, they can still raise.

And don't worry about chart position, I think today will be #1 soon

. I mean, could be much worse if she were debuting at #98 with just 1000 copies sold lol.

I'm very sure ayumi will be able to outsell ABC in the long run despite the early sales . I don't think max matsuura is dumb to get both of them to release their albums on the same week , especially since ABC's music is released via Motorod which's a sub division label of avex & that max executively produced ABC's works from SPELL MAGIC til now

If that's so , both their albums will not released together on the same week . ABC has never been a threat to anyone that much if you look at his/their past charting performances for his/their singles if not albums

Discography wise , ABC doesn't have any #1 hit's for their singles/albums , the closest he/they always get is #2

I think they're pretty much guaranteed to rise unless everyone's just performing badly this week.

I kind of see this turning out like GUILTY but not as stable since that was the last time they released an album a day early due to holidays.

OMG look at ayu's last.fm chart! All of Party Queens songs are there, and the listener numbers are stunning! SO HIGH!

TeamAyu2004 · #**212** 21st March 2012, 02:54 AM

too bad that doesnt translate to sales...

AyumiAi · #**213** 21st March 2012, 03:11 AM

I think people need to relax and wait for tomorrow

I GOT MY COPY TODAY!

WOOT LOVED LOVED LOVED THE MIDDLE PART OF THE ALBUM AND RETURN ROAD MADE ME ORGASM THE ENTIRE TIME!!!

Need to get used to the first part and the last part is okay >.< I don't like jazz music so it's hard but i'll learn :3

THE PV for REturn Road is epic! and I'm in love with HBYA now with it's PV

the PV for nana and Shake it are terrible >.< but wtv GO AYU!

After all, I've been always conviced that the original photoshoot of I am... was used for ayu-mi-x 4 covers...
