Amazing!!! Thanks ;)

I think the top 2 are Mr. Children albums and #3 is an Exile album. All groups and all male.

me
I'm honestly so curious..

I mean, I liked Uncontrolled, and I like her works, but it hasn't been knock-my-socks-off amazing. I wonder why her popularity has surged the past few yrs?!

YOU GO NAMIE :heart

This is exactly what I'm asking myself. I love Namie sfm, and I'm really curious to see why she's able to have high sales that can make her hold her own against those crap idol people. Besides her being awesome, there's gotta be something else at work here. The only thing I can think of is that she seems a little mysterious? She's been around in the industry for so long, but she always strikes me as a very professional, quiet person who reveals a lot of herself in her live performances. I remember how loud the crowd cheered for just seeing her smile lol

Although imo the only thing of hers not to wow me was "Uncontrolled" but everything before that is faaaabulous (ask me how much I stan for PAST < FUTURE. Go ahead. Ask lol).

She's still going strong it seems :yes.

Wow, I'm floored by the sales. Congrats Namie!

Her promo is mostly magazines and billboards and some good tie ins. But where she really wins is in general public opinion. She is just generally well liked and people think she is cool.

Yeah, I thinks she comes across as a polite and well-mannered person which I think resonates well, especially in Japan (and with me :laugh). Also, her promotion was HUGE. 20th anniversary is a big deal!

What are the sales so far?

thanks! I haven't seen a lot of her older stuff so this is fun to watch

What do you guys think the best Namie performances are?

First Timer @ Past < FUTURE 2010. I give it a lot of credit since I never liked FIRST TIMER until that performance. Also that was one of Namie's best tour outfits.
