Does anyone know how many magazines Ayu has been on the cover of?
 

Also the amount of remix songs she has an exact number or approximate is fine, also does anyone know where I can find good sales numbers for her albums, and also the amount that all her singles have sold all together?

I have 1411 ayu tracks in my iTunes.
About 120 original tracks, and 30 live/fanmade tracks...which leaves about 1260 tracks leftover...which are mostly remixes. I think she holds the title of most remixed artist in the world.

As for the amount of magazine covers...wow. I'd say between 150-200? Maybe even more.

As for sales figures, the wikipedia pages of the CDs that you're looking for should have some info. There are probably better places but I'm not sure where.

okay, cause I want to make an Ayu infographic (not for the contest) so I want to do a bunch based on numbers like some ayu statistics, would you happen to have any idea what I should do? like what statistics I should do are easy to acquire?

^^There's a thread somewhere on here with a complete song list, including remixes and everything. Party queen and FIVE are probably not updated on there...but that would help. Not sure where the thread is though...hm...I'll try to look.

thank you :D

wow this is awesome

In that case, thanks Delirium!

You wouldn't happen to know where I can find more things with statistics about ayu?

I could probably throw a few together for you. Give me an hour? I'm not doing anything. Sitting around with an injured foot. :)

cool thanks so much Im not really doing anything either, I'm bored so Im just like "hey I'll make an ayu infographic"

That sucks...hope you at least have pain meds!

And i do have painkillers. And an ACE bandage! I love these things. :)

Wait, what? Only wrote the lyrics to 190? Which songs didn't she write the lyrics to? Besides the covers like SDW and sotsugyou shashin?

Motrin, or good painkillers? :lech LOL

She didn't write the lyrics to any of the lyrics-less interludes. That makes the bulk of that subtraction. Also LOVE~since1999~, tsunku wrote those. And every song on NFN aside from "LIMIT."

LOL Tylenol, nothing fun unfortunately. In an interesting twist of fate, Motrin (or any ibuprofen) no longer works on me after I took that stuff in MASS quantities for a knee injury about ten years ago :P~

^^Really? Never heard of anyone building up a tolerance to an NSAID, hm, interesting. Well, hope you feel better. Sounds like they should have prescribed you Vicodin or at least Flexeril.

I may not have built up a tolerance technically... I busted my knee during a time when I was finishing up "growing," I was around 18 at the time, so. I was probably gonna develop into a person for whom ibuprofen wasn't gonna work in adulthood anyway. *shrug* Not every painkiller works on everyone, I guess!

In the meantime, there's always ice! XD
