How much did "Colors" sell? Just curious.

I personally don't think it would be that big of a deal if she did or didn't sell more. They're both good artists with very different styles, you know what I mean?

I heard that colors is the 2nd best selling single in 2003 so far. So that means Hikki sold alot for that single. So i am hoping that & single will at least sale more then "Colors". I think that colord sold around 800,000 - 870,000 copies. ( I don't remember how much it exactly sold so I just give out the estimate.)

Colors sold 400,000+ copies the first week (i dont remember the exact number) and it's total sales (881 ,600)exceeded A Ballads sales (875,300) . It'll be great if & could sell that much but i doubt it
source: yeah!! j-pop!

Wild! It sold that many copies??? I like Hikki, but I didn't think it was that great of a song at all.

That would be really cool if & could sell more, now that I know the whole story.. mwahahaha..

I'll shutup now.

I hope it does well!
When I was in Hong Kong (vacation), it seemed to be doing REALLY well!
I snatched up the last copy at HMV!
too bad the oricon chart doesn't count overseas realeases...

one of the reason why... hikki may sell more.. is that she dont take out things fast and take her time... so fans as soon as she take out samething new would get.. ill be like and album for them or something...

Just checked up on the Oricon (7/29) - & has dropped to #8. But I'm sure it will go up as the week progresses, usually artists holding the top spots lose them quickly. SMAP is STILL listed. That is crazy, lol.

Only about 75,000 copies? It's going to be very tough for her to get to sell a million. I'm having some doubts about it reaching a million..... Oh well, still a nice single.
