yeah position 16 is not bad at all...
her best album with avex even not make it to top 20

Melon Panda 11th December 2008 03:11 AM

I kind of like the song. It's not dead-catchy or anything like that, but it's nice. :)

Kaiouforever 13th December 2008 08:45 AM

I really like this song too, it's very simple but cute and sweet. She deserves a top 20 single!

howtousesexy 13th December 2008 01:48 PM

It's much much better than her avex works. :yes

Kobayashiwoof 13th December 2008 03:52 PM

The single is great, the only thing that bugs me if her emotionless vocals lol.

Temari_2 13th December 2008 11:56 PM

16 is pretty good. Hopefully we'll see her perform this song live.

Kaiouforever 14th December 2008 03:14 AM

That would really be wonderful! I think she sings beautifully in this song.

basically:
"BENI's new release "Mou Nidoto..." is doing well, blah blah, so today we're working on a new song that's being planned for an early spring release (does anyone know what PURIPURO stands for... and then it finally hit me. probably pre-production) blah blah. she was also my guest today for my radio show, blah blah. and the signs were throwing up is for WESTSIDE, not WISH. blahblah.


Imai Daisuke is working on another song for BENI.
and considering everyone's (well mostly everyone) giving him rave reviews for "STAY" i'm guessing this is GREAT news.

Thank you for telling me. I'll be sure to download that episode next week.

Hmm her sales aren't too bad...I hope it doesn't drop off the charts too fast.

Kaiouforever 24th December 2008 09:36 PM

She came in at #41 this week, with 2,621 copies sold, bringing her 2 week total to 9,365 copies sold. That's not too bad, she'll easily break 10k and hopefully her next single can sell a bit more!

rookies 16th January 2009 03:10 PM

Isn't she recording a new single or something? That's what I heard.

rookies 8th February 2009 11:59 AM

UPDATE: She's working on her 2nd single right now. (under Universal Music)

Maybe if we are lucky, there will be some announcement this month about it. ^^ It feels like it's been so long since her 1st single w/ Universal Music, but was only 2 months ago. o_O...

Sorry for the double post, but here's more info:

Biore Body Deli Press Release:

http://www.kao.co.jp/corp/news/2009/...0119-02bc.html

it's basically a line of body wash aimed at women 20~30 years old.
It's going to start going on sale on 2/21/2009.
Since Beni's CM starts in March, we can assume that she's the first person to even promote "Body Deli".

ALSO:

Skip near the end, you'll hear a preview of Kiss Kiss Kiss.

Kaiouforever 6th April 2009 12:18 AM

I doubt it...alan even ranked higher (in NINKI, which doesn't predict actual chart position at all), and she hasn't had a top 10 either...so yeah. I don't know how well this will do. Maybe if she has a lot of promotion, but as long as she gets in the top 20 I'll be happy =D

I hope she can at least be in Top 30 when the weekly chart comes out.

Kaiouforever 10th April 2009 07:24 PM

Phew, at least it's going up a bit. I have to admit though, "Mou nidoto" was a stronger single over all, I don't like this bside (Signal) as much as I liked "STAY" but still, it's a good single.

howtousesexy 10th April 2009 07:33 PM

Signal is a mess!

the Mou Nido to... remix is nice though :yes

rookies 10th April 2009 11:17 PM

^ I agree, also with you, that Signal isn't really that good. :/

STAY is better than SIGNAL.
