I was just going to post and ask about that, I've heard people (i.e. people who only ordered the single for JJ's pv) saying they were canceling their order because of how AVEX is treating JYJ and such.

I don't know, it's ridiculous imo. They shouldn't have ordered the single in the first place anyway.

I really adore the singles so far for this album era, so I'm really looking forward to a studio album (if we get one!)

MOON =
blossom =
crossroad =

I need to hear L like, right now.

JYJ didn't do anything wrong, why do you hate them?

AVEX halted/suspended JYJ's activites because of drama going on with their representative company. Max issued a statement about it and closed down their website.

yep, seems that way.

Seems(based on the CSO's twitter) like they were given an ultimatum: Avex or the Korean company and they chose the Korean company.

They're PR team released a statement today and basically blamed Avex for everything and now the fans are going ape**** now.

I mean, I'm a JYJ fan...but this is just utterly ridiculous. and I'm pissed at the fact that Ayu is probably going to pay the price in a small way because of it.

It shouldn't affect ayu's sales too much unless a lot of people bought the single for him and those are the same people who are canceling their orders.

Well....I mean Ayu still has a huge fanbase....so shes probably going to sell her normal 70-90k first week.....but I think with the JYJ fans it would've been the best sales she's had in a while. Its not really a loss...its just what could have been.

For me in regards to Avex (including Ayu and TVXQ, and related things), things have gone a bit too ugly for me...

Well their last album wasn't really all that successful, so yeah I wasn't even expecting much.

And with the fact that she's almost 32, the Arashi and AKB48 hype has been going on recently, we have the digital music revolution (while some like Arashi is not on the revolution), she has not taken a break since she started her pro career back in 1998, her vocals are disputable, the hearing issue back in 2008 that she lost her hearing on her left ear, as well as scandals and controversies throughout the years (including the Max Matsuura feud and the Tomoya Nagase breakup), and just simply new artists to discover, Ayu's sales sure decreasing physically as time goes on...

But she may eventually become the next Seiko Matsuda or such...

Yeah, that's pretty much all it was just a boost. Was looking forward to seeing that 100k first week... oh well. Boybands and their record companies, lol.

Be sure to mention something about plastic surgery too while you're at it.




This is going to be funny.

I'm still trying to figure out what he is rambling about and what does any of that have to do with... anything actually. Most of his posts are just so ??? I can't find words to describe them.

Why pick on Bigtop? I think he is just saying that crossroad may have lower sales due to an ongoing trend...
