I'll get in on all this predicting, my guess is 4,884 sales for next week, I know it seems low but its my guess.

at least I found ayu is getting to be a artist who has long time sale for one CD now.after half a year.MU still could sell some,even not that much .But if ayu could keep the sales hundreds weekly till the end of year.its gonna be a great sales of MU 2.Believe in ayu!!!!!!!!!!! by the way I dont care if koda sells more or less than ayu.I just care about ayu.koda is on top now.ayu already been top for many years.but now getting down slowly.but still keep on movin with a not bad sales.so dont compare 2 of them together.its boring...

Let's see... ;) If you listened to the songs, watched the PVs and found out about the promotion you'd probably have similar predictions with mine.

My BLUE BIRD guess is 3,927 next week.
My 4 HOT WAVE guess ois 672,544 next week.

Amusingly enough, Ningyo-hime's PV is playing right now. And I've pre-ordered the CD/DVD single. But even I think that anything over 250k is excessive. She even got second on the NINKI numbers for next week.

Sorry once again to bring Koda up in this biatch. I really do wish for a bit more sales on BB. Let's hope for some more steady sales next week and maybe she won't drop so much.

I know this might be kind of late, but I added in this weeks' count for CDL

thanks for the info~~!!

Thanx for the info..and Yay!! For ayumi =)

Awesome, I didn't think it still sold anything because it was a long time I heard anything about it. Still 700 copies a week is crazy, it dropped down to 1k copies already a few weeks after the initial release.

im very happy with these sales, i mean, it's not bad compared to a few recent singles. CONGRATS Ayu

PSYCHEDELICOdust - Who was #1 in the Ninki chart? // Never mind, I found them! //

How much did "Koi no Tsubomi" debuted? If it's around 200,000 copies, than "4 hot wave" will probably debut like... 300,000 copies. Though, I still don't get why it's a single. Looks more like a mini album with all those interludes, intro and outro...

If "BLUE BIRD" sells 5,000 copies this week. It will need a least 2 more weeks to sale 250,000 copies in total. Not bad compared to her last 2 singles.

But enough of "BLUE BIRD". I want a new rock/ballad single! XD Though I kinda wish she releases it around October/November.

Yup BLUE BIRD would be higher than the sales of Koi no tsubomi XD

I still think that Ayu is doing fairly well with Blue Bird, compaired to other artists that is.

Koi debuted with 140k in sales.

Well 'A' is considered a single, I don't see why '4 hot wave' shouldn't be one. (Unless you think 'A' should be a mini-album; in that case, I think that a mini-album/EP should have at least 5 new songs.)

Wasn't Mika Nakashima's Oboro~inori counted as a single too?

I consider "A" as a single because it has the single format that most from Ayumi and other artists have: the songs, the remixes and the instrumentals.

As for "4 hot wave", there's an introduction, and outroduction and an interlude. Since when singles have interludes? That's just weird.

1. Introduction ~I'll be there~
2. Ningyo-hime
3. I'll be there
4. Interlude ~JUICY/Ningyo-hime~
5. JUICY
6. With your smile
7. Outroduction ~With your smile~

Mika's "Oborodukiyo~Inori" was considered as a mini album.

I thought I remembered it being counted on the single chart though XD

Oh wow, using your 'scale', KinKi Kids can score one million copies then~

I think of the interludes as.. sort of just possibly voiceless versions of the songs D: Just snippets though. ;D I mean why would they have a real intro / interlude?

And the NINKI thing is like.. KinKi Kids = 50 points ahead.

IMHO, 4 a-sides probably won't do as well as they once used to.. D:

And I just found out the Ninki rating. :roflmao Bad... I'm guessing Kumi will still be #1, but with less sales. I now expect half the earlier prediction. Anything above 350k would be awesome.
:thud
*drastically lowered expectations*

Well I guess there's always a first??
