:yatta :yatta :yatta

she deserves it really & lol she outsold pretty much all the female solo albums that were put out this year within a week more or less :laugh

I hope my best album will come soon ;__;

yaiiy... thanks Tal.. Im so happy for Ayaka..
probably she will outsell all of sales for female album

ya & by next week if the sales didn't drop that much , she will outsell NEXT LEVEL & TRICK within a mere 2 weeks :thud

I don't think there will be other female solo artistes that will be releasing albums before the Oricon 2009 year wraps up so yeah :D

oh her ayaka's History that comes with a DVD is outta print on CDJapan now - http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/list_from_c...tml?key=381670

I guess the one with the photobook will follow suit soon

^Both are still available on YesAsia though @_@. And congratz to ayaka! Her voice is so beautiful! If I weren't so poor I'd get the album with the DVD since I don't have anything from ayaka yet...it would be perfect :weep

She's running great there. Hopefully she can be the best among Japanese female singers overall for the year...

I got ayaka's History 2006 - 2009 already after a mere 4 days CDJapan shipped it out !

the packaging inside

will do up scans for the booklet & CD later . I can't scan the photobook because it's hardcover :S

1st week : 348,013

^ that's very good :yes

Anyway , I have scanned up my copy of ayaka's History 2006 - 2009 which you can download via http://www.ahsforum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=88927

I don't know about you but I'm frankly a bit disappointed with the lyrics sleeves :S . I only like the last 2 pages because at least the choice of background & colour did not clash with the words & ayaka herself .___.

Photobook scans are not included unfortunately because it's hardcover , sorry :(

I should add that the CD casing for the album's thicker than the usual slim CD casing which I suspect it's to house the deluxe booklet that's really well erm thick :O

You're lucky you have your copy! I think I'll have mine by tomorrow *crosses fingers*

BTW here's the lives at Music Lovers, Melodix and Music Station SP from last week :

Hopefully somebody scans the photobook, as this might be a bit tough than we may have expected...

And, oh yeah - Arashi really has taken the lead overall - hopefully Ayaka can outperform Kuu - and Ayu and Ikimonogakari also... (Ikimonogakari?)

thanks for the scans karen, i have to say that shoot is just gorgeous :luv2 i love it

I'm frankly neutral with the overall concept surrounding ayaka's History 2006-2009

I still dislike the title of her best album , it's like implying she has died early or something *touch wood

1->1 - 25,980 + 22,477 = 48,457

stil strong though..
so she will get #2 streak

I know right ( :laugh )? I'm sure most of you know this, but it took me a while to spot it but in English there's an expression that when something has left or is gone forever you say "-- is history!" Of course its just an unintended pun but still ( :P ).

yeah I know & it annoys me

why Warner can't go with Ayaka's Best 2006 - 2009 or something

ayaka's History 2006-2009 make it sound like it's the end of her music career .___.

1->1->2 - 25,980 + 22,477 + 20,016 = 68,473

Backstreet Boys outsold Ayaka today

1->1->2->2 - 25,980 + 22,477 + 20,016 + 17,035 = 85,508

Neck-and-neck between Ayaka and the American-bred Backstreet Boys...

(that seems to be really interesting)
