I was only there for about 5 min, didn't see anyone else looking though...

We´ll have to wait a little more...

[SURREAL__RAINBOW]

Ahhh hurry up sales!!

[brener]

So A SUMMER BEST is here... Looks like it was announced yesterday. Good luck on sales ayu!

[clover_bali]

bad feeling... SMAP released album in same time, today too, maybe it's main problem for ayu to get 1st oricon sales position...

[SURREAL__RAINBOW]

If she gets to the 2nd spot I'll be happy. I really respect SMAP, they love ayu too it seems, they had her in their tv show and sang some of her classics with her

oh you're 1 post away from the 10k mark!

i hope that some kinda of miracle happens and help this album sell at least 100k copies in the debut week!

I dont really care about rank or sales, she has proved her talent, now other artists are more popular, im glad ayu is still passionate about what she is doing

I agree

I know that SMAP will get #1 over Ayu, but I don't care about it... Even though SMAP is older than Ayu (though the fact that she's 33, but SMAP is a Johnny's group that is sustainably more popular than Ayu) I kind of not worry about it, especially when it's a COMPILATION album of some sort and I have younger artists in hand that I also listen to (miwa, Sayuri Sugawara, Leo Ieiri)...

I agree. Has nothing to prove anymore, she ruled once the J-pop scene for nearly three years, every one else was below her, and overall fame and influence she's a legend. A force to be reckoned with.


Now, congratulations to ASB for ending the decline of Ayu's sales. Hurray!

It has been probably said though, but I can't find it anywhere and I have forgotten if its real or just a dream. For the people who bought the album. Uhm, are those songs remastered as in A BALLADS? ._.

@EDIT nevermind. Found something at page 9. Sorry. But please, tell me which songs are remasterd..

The songs are the same as they've always been, Avex says they've been "remastered" which means they've just been compressed/mastered using newer technology. Apparently there isn't much difference.

Oh bummer

[TeamAyu2004]

YAY!
It came out today (for me, yesterday for japan!)
Hope to get it soon!!!

I wonder what the first day sales will be? If not 1 then 2!

Am I too late to comment on the booklets?
I thought they were pretty hot, but I wouldn't buy the CD unless it came with a photo booklet.
