edit: there are 2 other singles that didnt make it on the list cos they were released before 2000. they are:

Boys & Girls: ~1,040,000 (ayu's 4th best selling single)
A: ~1,630,000 (ayu's best seller)

oh kool~ thanks for the info! i always thought evolution was a million seller :(

i also thought that A was a million seller too---it seems to me that Ayu would have more of her singles on there and Hikki too just b/c ayu had lots of singles that were 900k-800k sellers and Hikki had lots of million sellers besides the ones up there...

Wow, she's got 4 up there! Great :D

Interesting. It's great to see that Ayu ranks so high in these rankings.

It's impressive to have 4 of the top 50 singles in six years. Go Ayu!

thats awesome!!! im so happy for her :)

wow thats pretty neat..thanks for sharing

'A' was released in 1999 thats y its not on this list

^ true that!
nice to see thats shes on the list. not like that was a surprised.

Neat! Thanks for sharing!

Wooo! Go Ayu! I'm so happy to see M, evolution, and H on there. Three of my favorite singles!

Thanks! That's awesome for Ayu!

'A' is also considered an album by some companies who keep records like these (RIAJ i know considers it an Album release)

Woot! Go Ayu! M and Evolution are two of my favourite Ayu songs.

宇多田ヒカル

Got 6, and beats ayumi, must mean she's really good...o_o lol

AWESOME!

YES, I've always been trying to tell people that SEASONS is a bigger hit lol.

wow, seasons!
