I think that's very true. She's only got a short time at the very top, just like other idols. People wanna see something new and flashy. But that doesn't mean that she won't be a top-selling artist. Moreover, if she reinvents something with her music or tries something different, the novelty might increase sales.

I think that she still has a few years of top popularity. Also, I don't think it's a matter of breaks between songs. Look at the 10 month break between Voyage and &... That was a long one and & still didn't hit the top and stay on top without little breaks. Either people are bored of ayu's music (I'm not, mind you) or they're into something new.

Indies bands are popular right now. Also, rock seems to be making a come-back right? Pornograffiti and such are at the top. I dunno. I think ayu can come back, she just has to do something a lil different. This new album might do it. Let's hope!!
