from HMV

there're 2 stores in here that's why

^ this :yes

put a sock in it AyuGAME :rolleyes if you don't know how the Johnny entertainment business works in Japan in that it's a norm that Johnny's albums don't sell as good/well as their singles , then keep your comments to yourself

somemore the fact that virtually no or little promo's done when comes to Johnny's albums , it's saying something on how the 1st day sales of All the BEST ! is able to clear 261K :rolleyes

you just make me & Lisa real annoyed at such comments that you don't back up with proof at all

===

*calm down .... I'm going to get my LE copy of All the BEST ! later from my uncle which he bought it on my behalf :D

will take pics of it later on

deep breath, karen! :laugh

can't wait to see the pics! we all envy you now...:mischief

xD xD

the album's already on my hands ! <3 , will take pics after I finished my breakfast (it's 9am here on a Thurs)

I hope I wasn't harsh on what I fired back at AyuGAME but it's true , if you don't know your stuff , don't show it off to people

you bound to make people like myself who knows what's going on in the entertainment world mad

alrightly , here we go , pics time for my LE copy of All the BEST ! :D (I hope I can be pardon for the double posting this time round)

LMAO yeah the bus cracks me up & it's an actual prop that was bulit up from scratch !

top 50 singles
*1 *,653,261 ***,482 Believe/曇りのち、快晴 / 嵐、矢野健太 starring Satoshi Ohno 09/03/04

*4 *,403,061 **3,066 Everything / 嵐 09/07/01

Everything has crossed 400K :heart & Kaori please don't be lazy , update the 1st post :P

i still hope it'll get #3 by the end of the year :P

wow...ok...suprised me a lot that people get mad because of that line
i'm sorry but there is a missunderstand here...

i'm comparing boysband album sales with boysband single sales
i'm NOT comparing their album sales with other female singer or male singer or band album sales...

example kattun
their latest single "rescue" sold 350k while their latest album sold 250k

another example kanjani 8
their latest single sold 400k while their latest album sold 250k

another example arashi
their latest single sold 400k while their latest album sold 320k

from that FACT, we can see that usually their album sold less or similar with their single sales

its different with soloist or band, like ayu her single sold 200k but her album sold 375k...its higher number

that's why i said that line, please crosscheck first before saying something...

and i know a lot about this jpop world karen and Beauty4123, i have been around here and this jpop world FOR a long-long-long time! please give more respect...thank you

and for separate note, i'm big fans of arashi, they are the only boysband that i liked...

well I apologise but the way that you mentioned about this issue a few posts back , it made it looked like you were plucking facts & etc outta the sky & all

besides all this comparison against a non Johnny artiste & a Johnny artiste against their sales & albums , it doesn't get you anything at the end of the day

everyone who's a Johnny's know it all knows that all this time , albums sales for a Johnny's band is not as strong as a single

with that , I rest my case

As of this morning, my order is still "in shipping process" now I'm pissed! :mad

aw :(

may I ask where are you residing ?

this :yes

I suspect AyuGAME's 1st language's not English that's why I probably misunderstood on what he said & with that I apologise

Sept will fly by real soon , Kaori !

& eh is this friend you're referring to about , is it me in question ? :tired O_O

Never listened to the band, but the packaging is sexy. Minus that ugly bus.

work your magic Kaori :laugh

ah ok so that means the timezone for both our countries are the same , nice

yea, the bus may not be too handsome (unlike matsujun :lech) but all the boys and their suits make up for it :D you should listen to the group, though :innocent kaori, be prepared :D

:roflmao

Kaori's good at doing this kinda 'thing' so I leave it to her LMAO

oh I want to add somemore things with regs to the packaging of All the BEST !

in the photobook which has lyrics of the 10 songs that the guys specially picked , the lyrics are on the left side of the book where on the right , they wrote as to why they chose so & so to be in the ARASHI's Selection (disc 3)

:laugh

yeah somehow I have the feeling you're referring to me

I already told Cliff to get 3 copies (1 each for Lisa , Eirynne & you) & put them on standby mode when it will be released next month in Taiwan since it's cheaper to get it though him instead on online sites

now the OS press release date's supposedly been bumped up from Sept 11th to 1st for Hong Kong's case from the info that I got from HMV HK's site

hope that's true for Taiwan , will be even better if it's earlier

So I already contacted CDJapan and they told me that my parcel is about to be picked up by the post office "in a few hours" and they will send me a confirmation message once it's completed. I really hate waiting... Haha! :D
