I have a strong feeling that it will hit a million very soon. Her sales for this album have been so strong lately! I'm sure she can do it!

Well, let's put in this way. I'm pretty sure HS sales shall be over 20K next week as well. If she can put up 20K per week for 2 more weeks (so that means 3 weeks after HS sales shall be around 920K), I would say it's safe to say that HS can break 1 million copies.. IMO, she must keep selling over 10K per week before hitting 950K..

I quite like the music video. It's nothing special, but I don't hate it. Certainly better than FoL.

I'm happy for hikki.. but at the same time I feel really sad for Ai-chan... She's not beaten by hikki, rather she's beaten by herself..

Ok... maybe the problem here is not the director >.<
everyone has a brain fart once in a while. Having a recording session for a PV isn't as bad as everyone may think. There's nothing wrong with it and many artists ahve used it. But for Hikki and the type of song that PoL is he definitely could have unleashed his creativity a bit more and ran with it. XD

thanks so much karenpang!!!
I'm glad you enjoyed it!!!

Prisoner Of Love is a great song and no offense to Hikki fans but I do want Ai to take the number 2 spot. Not that her single is exactly stellar either but Hikki's is just a re-cut single...

yeah I understand where you're coming from but seems to me that so far ai has been denied the 2nd spot by Utada but see how things goes by in days to come

I have my own music blog too . it's karenpang.blogspot.com

btw nice layout of your site

Thanks, you're sooo sweet karenpang!!!
I'm gonna visit your site tomorrow cause I'm about to go to bed.

Hikki only beat Ai out for like 1K so ya never know. Then again, Ai's drop was bigger than Hikki's so I don't really know what to say. In a perfect situation, the two would take the top 2 positions but...

Awesome review Amai!

I definitely definitely agree with you on the "She should have added a B-side" part. That would have really gave the single a boost in sales. Prolly a remix of POL would've been a great B-side for it or a new song. EMI should have also lowered the price of it as well. I think that's one of the reasons of why it debuted so low. Hopefully, it'll hold onto the #2 spot. -Even though I like Ai, I want Hikki to get the #2 spot this week.-

soooo I guess Ai didn't get that number 2 spot unless she starts seeing some increases in sales NOW! Hopefully she'll stay in the top3 though 0_0

Anyways, glad HEART STATION is selling so well. If she gets beaten out by all three EXILE BESTS, I will be PISSED. This album definitely needs to be in the top 3 yearly I think - Kobukoro GO AWAY!!!!

Thanks Luv and AyUyta!!!

I'm not sure how to say this... did I saw some dream or did I really see a commercial for HS where hikki wears herself kuma? This might sound mad, but I wanna see it if there is something like that...
