I think Fairyland sold at least 300,000.

All this started with B&D

Yes, something must've happened. Sales in general rose in 2005, but then ayu was on the rise. I wonder how "Startin'" will do in the yearly. If she doesen't have ANY single's in the top twenty this year, it's ridiculous to blame "low sales in general". It's ayu.

Pretty weird to request this here perhaps, but could anyone upload the Kat-Tun song, and/or Kaela's song? I really liked her real heart real life.

the songs arent really worth it .. ayu needs a big change and less to happy songs"girly songs".. that's the main reason why i stop liking ayu as i once did.. no Straight guy would dig the to happy songs like fairyland,greatful days,step you,honey,ANGEL'S SONG,Beautiful Day..plz make it stop ayu and there also the music she needs better music why dont she tries to write the music again under Crea. she could had done better job than Sweetbox if she had just wrote the music for "Miss understood".. well this is just my personal opinion but i feel many feel the same and some have even stop listening to ayu but i have faith in ayu and will wait for a change in the near furute.

^ Can we just discuss the sales and stop blaming her songs quality? She wrote those songs, and you can go make a thread or something.

It gets very annoying to see every page filled up with complaints on her song quality. Use the Ayu Chatroom people... Every sales thread here has someone criticizing her song quality. That does not help a single bit and only adds to the aggravation.

That's an ignorant and stereotypical statement to make.

I'm hoping Ayu's next single will wow everyone more than this one has.

I say 'OMG!' as well. This boyband thing in Japan is like the Backstreet Boy/N*Sync craze in the US. -_-

Well, Japan is still going very much through a "boy-band" rage, especially JE groups, plus the single came in 7 covers (6 limited). I'm sure if Ayu came out with a single that have 6 limited covers (and by covers I mean good ones ) she's sell alot too.

Because we all know that pop music is only for girls and homosexuals Seriously, that's ignorant and sexicist.

yeah, but isn't it part of the problem for some fans? (ie: some fans are getting turned off by the songs, which leads to the lower sales?)

Yes it may be, so just say it "I think it's the song quality this time round" and stop it at there. No need for adding more and more elaboration that just gets very annoying to see in a News thread as they are somewhat like bashing, and only concealed behind a "I'm a fan, and I'm dissapointed" style of writing.
