Anyhow, I think that those rankings might also help ayu in some ways, in terms of promoting and marketing herself... I rmb that I was attracted to ayu is during her A Best era, where the TV will keep showing her ads, and in a very damn cool way... Like first saying "3 more days" etc... Then after like when A Best album starting to cool down, there is even an ads thanking the fans, and stating that this album got first in various countries... Slowly, I started growing interest and research on ayu, and has been her fans since today... ^^ |

Well, she didn't do so bad for a single she doesn't really care about.
I'm sure if she had been to some music shows and all, the single would have sold easily 50k in the first week and the second week would have been smoother. But oh, well... that didn't happen. I really don't understand why she neglects her music career so much these days. Doesn't she like to go out and perform? Yeah, she might be over that, doing whatever she wants and releasing when she wants and bla bla bla... but still, I can't help but imagine her being angry at her rank because something with her name on it didn't sell what it used to. Anyway, let's hope Pray (or whatever the next release is) does better. If she wants. Quote:

The sister groups are just a way to keep local fanbases. HKT has only released 2 singles and their debut one broke some records for girl groups with those 200k. In a couple of years they'll be in the 350/400k range with the others. Still, you cannot compare a group like AKB to any other. If Ayumi wants to go to Music Station by bus, she only needs to pay 10 bucks. If AKB wants to go to Music Station by bus, they have to pay 200. They need to sell in this range (and even so, the producer is always saying that he loses money whenever they have a big concert lol) or else they're not profitable. |

i think Ayu might have just accepted the fact that she won't sell as much as she used to. I mean eventually every legend falls down to the average level when it comes to sales. It's a cimmon thing in the industry. Yeah you can get back up like Namie did, but it's temporary as well. Tho i'd love to see what would happen if Ayu had so much promo going on like Namie does.

Ayu said in like 2004? that her era was over so yeah, I think she's over it lol. She just loves making music, not selling a butt load or being the 'trendy' thing.

As long as she is happy I'm happy too. It doesn't seem like there's any pressure on her from avex regarding the sales, so it's ok.

I feel like she doesn't want it anymore
I'd rather she became the producer/manager or the member of avex board better than not paying attention to the career and status and image and the number of her haters just keep going up |

yeah, I thought it would sell between 2 and 3k, so 4k is awesome!

Pretty good 2nd week numbers. Hopefully the single will get close to 40k in the end.

35K for the single and soloist these days is really good!

Everyone is convinced that that "thing" they're searching for is in the future. But how many people have realized that "it" is actually in the past? I can't even guess. I saw the end of an era with my own eyes. But I didn't want to know that it's my turn next. If, after simplifying it a bit more, you think that "it" merely connects and arranges memories, then wouldn't everyone already have "it?" I want you to realize that. I saw the end of an era with my own eyes. And in truth, I actually do know that it's my turn next. You'll find me, won't you? I'm betting that you'll find me. I saw the end of an era with my own eyes. But I didn't want to know that it's my turn next. yes ayu, we will find you. WHO CARES. I'll be forever supporting this girl, really. Quote:

Actually, it's pretty flattering for Ayu. I'm not even mad or anything, 'cause she's always on everybody's mouth and she's the yardstick for everything and everyone. Not everyone can drop in sales with the legend status like her. Anyway, I'm happy the second week was fine enough. This single seems steady. |

Haters are only jealous, probably. At the end of the day, they're the ones who sit at their PCs writing words of hate towards people who don't even recognise their existence, while ayu can laugh it off in her jacuzzi. See my point~ edit: while doing naughty things with her smexy americajin toyboy
