Unfortunately, ayu won't be getting #1 for this single. Hey! Say! JUMP! are releasing on the same day. Since it happens, it pretty much means avex aren't interested to extend her record/streak even farther. Unless if they will push it back.

Ayu already broke the record for most #1 hits so it's OK if she doesn't get those anymore. Or that's what I feel.

Thank God.
Of course I want Ayu to get #1, but their seeming obession was starting to get ridicolous.

Seems like Feel the love is gonna get another tie-in too? This time it's the theme song for CDTV.

Well, that's what we're about to fear. And then again, AKB48 is breathing down her neck for the most consecutive #1 singles by a female artist (though earlier we have said that AKB48's a group, but Ayu's a solo singer).

To be honest, I do like BOTH Ayu and HSJ. But I haven't been recently listening to their music recently, mainly because of the lack of activities compared to, say, 2007, and I'm really stuck to my other interests, such as AKB48, Ayaka, Yanawaraba, Sayuri Sugawara...and I don't really care about the Oricon very much.

Avex has always seemed so strategic in the release dates of her singles.... who knows, maybe they're banking on all of these tie-ins, plus the fact that she hasn't put out a single in years to drive the sales? This just doesn't make much sense to me...

That is pretty disappointing. JE, why do you have to ruin things? Haha~

IIRC, KinKi Kids kind of did this when RAINBOW came out.

It's unfortunate she won't get number one but at this point I don't even keep track of her sales. All I know is that I'm getting a copy and that's all I care about.

Well, maybe if she doesn't get #1 people will finally stop caring way too much about her streak? Maybe this way she can keep releasing singles without caring to keep her streak anymore (though I don't think she really cares about it)...
Of course I would love her to get #1, but it's totally ok for me if she doesn't as well, I just hope the single have nice sale numbers

It isn't very important if she gets #1 or not....but I do think that the sales are quite important. Really hope that those sales will be at least decent because Feel the love is really nice and I doubt hard that the other song will be bad. I don't know why female singers' singles sell so bad these days in Japan.. Kumi Koda's last single sold 23k,isn't it right?? so bad Even Namie isn't selling good these singles. Let's support Ayu because she deserve it!At least with her albums if not with her singles.

Actually I'm not that sad if she will not get #1. I'm happy because they seemed to have learned a lesson with that paranoid fear of single records. avex could have planned better a single release after 3 years, imo. For istance, in a safe week.

It doesn't mean I wouldn't be happy if she will get the chance to be 1st, but it's not so tragic for me if she will not, neither
