A SUMMER BEST is helping Party Queen sales

[TITANIC]

her albums never stay in chart for a long time. the only album charted for more than 1 year are ASFXX, LOVEppears, A BEST and Memorial Address. even some of her best selling studio albums such as Duty, I am..., and RAINBOW charted under 30 weeks.

for PQ to stay in chart as long as NEXT LEVEL would be damn good.

I think you may be applying western standarts for a Japanese artist here. Albums rarely chart for more than 10-15 weeks in Japan because sales are so frontloaded, even ones that sell good. Over a year is a REALLY long chartlife for a Japanese album.

yeah I understand for that. Kuu, Hikki, Namie, Ayaka, Kana are the examples, they usually have a better chart life compared to Ayu. other major artists also have a longer chart life.

On recent years ayu outcharted kuu in # of weeks I think.

[brener]

crossing fingers for tomorrow!!

[SURREAL__RAINBOW]

150k please!!!

Thank you for the update!

[ayumisrael]

Thanks!
Then it outcharted Love songs as well.

[spanishfan]

It would take like 5 weeks more to reach 150k I hope it can do it, but i see it difficult

[brener]

yay!! thats incredible, looks like people are still in love with it.


it outcharted FIVE (20), Love songs (21), RnRC (21), GUILTY (16) and Secret (19).... NEXT LEVEL charted 29 weeks, so 8 to go! hahaha

Well regardless if ORICON stop tracking it or not, it's obviously going to sell 150k in a few weeks.

[isthisLOL?]

If Oricon finally started counting downloads we'd probably be past 200k, maybe 250k, by now -.-

[sanzo2011]

it'd be a disaster if Oricon counted digital sales cuz Ayu 'd sit around top 50 or lower in the yearly chart! i think we all should be grateful that Oricon didn't do that!

[TeamAyu2004]

^ no it wouldnt, if anything it would bump her higher.
your adding sales... they cant get lower if you add two numbers together.

A SUMMER BEST charted at #1 on iTunes and only #2 with BIG distance physically. Ayumi is a rather strong digital seller depending on the release. Party Queen did rather good digitally, too. There is a chance it could bump her positions up rather than down - though that always depends on who she's up against. You & Me is a digital hit, too.

Also, it's just more accurate.

They would most likelly get lower considering there are acts who sell better only digitally than she does both digitally and physically... Of course, I'm talking about yearly charts here.

And just to spice things a little bit.
Party Queen already overcharted Japanesque.
At this rate, it needs +-7 weeks to oversell it. Go go go!
