It's not impossible, occasionally female artists have had a hit out of nowhere after a period of down sales - Like Matsuda Seiko in 1996, but Namie seems to be the only one who was able to sustain a "second peak."

Well, fair enough, considering post-TK Namie is almost a totally different artist xD
