It says on Wikipedia that Avex is one of the most successful indie record labels or something.

So.. I don't get it, Avex isn't a major label?

I think "indie" = "independent" = not owned by the Big 4. (Sony BMG, EMI, Warner, Universal)

Blog predicting 1st week sales of ~70k.

Oh, okay! Now I see what there talkin' about...nice!

Anyway, although that's a relatively low figure, it's understandable. T2M sales yesterday where at 3k. So yea, I think I'll have to agree with that predicition.

Why is it always when we (as a forum) love a single, it ends up selling terribly? D:

^....because we give it too hype when we don't really know how the Japanese feel about it. We predict huge numbers like crazy and end up feel stupid when it's wrong. I'll admit that I predicted that t2m would sell over 100k and now feel stupid for underestimating what her Japanese felt about the single. It's going to sell under 100k and by me saying that, I think we should stop doing that so much.....It's only going to end up being a dream crusher or whatever.

5th day

Rank: #1
Sales index: 2877 (up from 2811)

Now doesn't that just make EVERYONE'S day?

Total estimated sales 57,612 + 2877 * 1.75 = 62,646

5 days running! yayyyyyy show her some love, Japan!
For reference, Koda's at #2 right now with sales index 1264 while the former #2 contender tohoshinki/DBSK is at...#11...

lol what an up-go, at least it didn't sell less than yesterday, it could be worse... I think that the first week sales will be around 65,000 or something like that...

eh. does it even matter about sales? obviously, sales do not reflect good music.

sifow - fails to chart - excellent, unique, amazing music
glitter - sells like 150k, and sounds like something we've been hearing for the past 2 years.

It's going to sell less than Bold & Delicious... I can't believe it! Well, in my opinion Japanese people prefer Ayu's ballads and summerish songs than the rock style of talkin' 2 myself
