Ayu getting blocked from the #1 Spot Three Years in a Row
I was just browsing the top yearly selling albums in Japan and I noticed something really frustrating for Ayu.

The years from 2000 to 2003, Ayu's albums were all #2.

http://www.generasia.com/wiki/2002_O...Top_100_Albums

It's crazy that she was SO CLOSE to having a #1 album in Japan for 4 consecutive years.

Such a legend.

Yeah that’s frustrating. I always wonder why none of her studio albums surpassed 3 million copies...

It was probably just her output and also someone else just always doing better. Not really a problem though since #2 is fine.
