[Charts & Rankings] Oricon 2008 thread

[Luv ~Venus~]

^ I just don't understand how Victor (Aoyama's record label I think) is releasing an album when she has only 2 singles to promote the album. Just going on one single isn't enough to prove whether the albulm will be good or not. I think it's totally stupid. The way I'm looking at it, it seems Soba ni iruyo will end up selling more than the studio album.

lol possible! I kinda hope that it will since I don't want her to top hikki next week and the only good song of her that I heard is soba ni iruyo,

Go hikki and beat her

Love, are you afraid of Hikki being bested by another female artist? Ayaka has already been called the "next Utada Hikaru"! I just have to laugh at stuff like that.

no ayaka nor Thelma will sell more than my hikki, HOW RUDE
Specially not ayaka which I don't like her style at all, she's boring me

[Luv ~Venus~]

^ I don't like Ayaka's style either. Besides, how can she be the next Utada Hikaru when she doesn't even do R&B? I don't think Aoyama can sell on her own unless someone is featured on her stuff. I thought about buying her album but I decided not to because I'm not sure if she will be in the J-business for long. Why waste money on a one-hit wonder?! I like her ans all but I'm not completely sure about Aoyama yet.

You haven't listened to ONE WAY yet, have you?

[Melon Panda]

ayaka may have a strong voice, but her non-ballad songs are pretty bland to me (nothing I could ever listen to on repeat). Utada has the whole musician/artist package thing going on, so it seems ridiculous to compare the two. As long as Utada is around, there doesn't seem to be a point calling other artists "the new Utada Hikaru."

Hikki's only 25... I don't see how she could even have a replacement like that s I mean, maybe when she's 35. And maybe when someone is as HUGE as she was during First Love and Distance.

[KarenPang]

thanks for the update of this week's Oricon .

wow I'm surprised for Ken's 2nd week sales of FAKIN' POP & that he only drop 1 spot for the 2nd week .

Looks like he's able to reach platinum status in no time

[TITANIC]

congratzzzzzzzzzzzz..
finally namie got #1 this week...

[TITANIC]

so 60s70s80s total sales is 152,881

[criminal]

Namie Amuro is #1.

I hope this is the start of a new streak.

[ayu_fan929]

I think their 3 best album release back in 2005 is kind of different since "PERFECT BEST" was pretty much the other 2 combined into 1. This year, they're releasing 3 difference best albums. I don't think the best selling avex album won't be any of the 3 best albums from EXILE, it will probably be their studio album, EXILE LOVE.

Woo! Shokotan's in the top 5! :3

[Luv ~Venus~]

^No, but I heard that it was better than Soba ni Iruyo <~I really like that song! lol I've been too lazy lately to download much of anything. I know her album is up for downloading but I'm gonna dl right not. Well, I prolly will do it late on. XD

^ ONE WAY is like, 10x better than Soba ni Iru yo. But I preffered the b-sides on SnIy though. Oooh, my downlaod of DIARY just finished when WinRAR opened as I was writing this, spooky...

I've been considering downloading DIARY but really... I doubt there'll be much besides Soba Ni Iru yo.

You doubt there'll be much besides Soba ni Iru yo if you've only heard that one song?

[ayumisrael]

Well DIARY has some nice R&B songs, but that's all, most of the album is boring so I'm happy hikki is #2 and Aoyama is #3. I would actually like ayu-mi-x 6 -SILVER- to outsell Aoyama but no way I guess the -GOLD- one wasn't really good so I don't mind.
