^ I meant Dream A Live. :) Well, at least this got significantly more. I don't know if it'll be enough to sell a million, but it'll all depend on how the sales hold up.

oh sorry for that

frankly to me I don't think you should compare the 1st day sales of a studio album against a compilation album since it's not often a 10th year anniversary compilation album's released if you know what I mean :yes

ugh I can't wait to get my 3CDs limited edition soon , either tonight or tomorrow locally :smitten

SunshineSlayer 19th August 2009 12:23 PM

^ Yeah of course not, but it at least shows that since Dream A Live, they've picked up a significant amount of fans that are willing to buy their albums.

yeah & especially for those who just recently got into their music (I guess I'm counted since I got onboard ARASHI & Johnny's music just last May) so the 1st disc is a perfect one to sample how their older works are like

I frankly can't remember some of their older works like Kimi no Tame ni Boku ga Iru & Nice na Kokoroiki but given enough time & listens , I can haha but I do know all their singles from PIKANCHI DOUBLE onwards :yes

SunshineSlayer 19th August 2009 12:36 PM

^ I got used to the old songs through watching their lives over and over. :)

Some Arashi sites are reporting that they sold slightly more than Supermarket Fantasy's first day, and some are saying slightly lower. haha. It's somewhere around there.

KarenPang 19th August 2009 02:44 PM

well I don't know what was the 1st day sales of Mr.Children's SUPERMARKET FANTASY but assuming that sales for All the BEST ! continues to keep up & not flag drastically , I think it's quite easy for them to clear 400K & above

I can't wait to get my copy tomorrow from HMV & I was told by the staff I was 1 of the lucky 10-11 who manage to secure a copy since so few copies of the LE were brought in to be sold here from Japan & yeah ick the demand for it's so high @_@ .

I wanted to go down today but I caught a bad cold earlier on in the morning when I was doing my Finance final exam paper T_T

I should go to bed now XD

blue_yet_stronger 19th August 2009 03:59 PM

thanks for the concern I appericate it :D

this piece of news will make Eirynne , Lisa & Kaori very happy XD

I was browsing though HMV HK's site & they already have the links up to preorder the Taiwan press of All the BEST ! & it will be released via their site on 1st Sept which's a Tue :thud

regular edition - http://www.hmv.com.hk/product/japanese.asp?sku=747555

limited edition - http://www.hmv.com.hk/product/japanese.asp?sku=747554

So now instead of 11th Sept supposedly , it has been changed & bumped up to 1st Sept in Hong Kong

I don't know if it's the same for Taiwan but we'll see about it & man they even listed down the catalogue no.s for both editions too :thud

I believe they sold 1k more. :yes

And this BEST album will probably help all the casual listeners get more into their older songs and buy their older albums. Arashi's first works weren't bad at all! That's why I always find it weird when people don't listen to them. You're missing out~ :P

JackieRos 19th August 2009 05:39 PM

who wouldnt listen to their old songs
arashi is for dream:laugh
jesus that song is just :heart for me

Beauty4123 19th August 2009 05:40 PM

amazing sales for today, although i admit to setting my expectations way too high (like 500k first day, LOL) keep going, guys! :love

JackieRos 19th August 2009 05:47 PM

way to high lisa shhhh but you know they will do it :hi5

Beauty4123 19th August 2009 05:49 PM

haha yea, i knew my prediction would be totally OFF :dead2 but i'm still very satisfied with these sales. please pass the million! :weep

tokyoxjapanxfan 19th August 2009 05:55 PM

woah....

i thought first day would be at least 500,000...

i wonder if this will actually pass 1 million? it'll take a little longer than I thought it would if it does. i'm still pretty sure it will though haha.

AyuGAME 19th August 2009 06:09 PM

not as high as i thought it could be...
its their average number for single too
looks like boysbans album is not selling that well in japan...

ka♡ri. 19th August 2009 06:11 PM

i'm hoping / feeling that we might get another 200k day tomorrow? :D Wishful thinking? lol

Bigtop 19th August 2009 08:05 PM

I thought if it would really release over half a million in the first day...how come?

SunshineSlayer 19th August 2009 08:12 PM

I think half a mill on the first day is too much to expect of anyone. :) If it beat Mr. Children's first day, then thats already a huge accomplishment.

if you have no knowledge on how JE albums sell, then just please don't post these things as if it's a fact. for JE, this album is selling VERY well on just the first day.
