I agree the song was popular compared to some, but Sunrise and Together When... did way better digitally in the categories that matter more.

If I'm not wrong, incoming call videos don't get certifications, so, we can't know how much it sold... still, one year charting is huge... I'm pretty sure it sold really well, or is it common for those videos to chart for a whole year?

The pv didn't chart for one year

I think that nem referred to avex's pdf around autumn 2009 where Sunrise's full PV sold around 30,000 and the ic videos sold 40,000 and it was of the best selling pvs on recochoku.

Yup. I am not saying those numbers aren't great btw and they are obviously the reason they aren't uploading the full PVs to Youtube.

It'd be nice if Ayu released another JEWEL-like song or a STEP you. I mean who DOESN'T know 1, 2, 3, 4 YOU and ME? Haha. Even my parents know it... bahaha. A lot of her songs lately are awesome (to fans) but to people who aren't Ayu fans listening to the songs often, I think it's like listening to a popular artist's album tracks as opposed to a single that gets addicting after a listen or two.

Mirrorcle Monster · #5 14th May 2011, 08:07 AM

But japanese fans seem to really love Days more than Sunrise or TogethervWhen... (according to the last year poll)

njanjayrp · #6 14th May 2011, 12:06 PM

^ that's exactly why I said that Days was better received within her fan base and not the general public.

**ayumisrael** · #7 17th May 2011, 11:17 AM

Apparentely, Love songs stopped charting.

TeamAyu2004 · #8 17th May 2011, 02:26 PM

WHAT!?!

That sucks... when does that happen..? I mean, how many copies is not enough to chart?

**ayumisrael** · #9 17th May 2011, 04:40 PM

When it's out of the top 300 weekly.

Probably Less than 250-300 copies.

TeamAyu2004 · #10 17th May 2011, 04:41 PM

Wow, so i wonder how you find out how many copies are sold... there has to be a way to see how many copies have been sold say two years after the fact..
or is it something that avex releases...?

**ayumisrael** · #11 17th May 2011, 09:35 PM

After it's out of oricon top 300 weekly there's no way to know but these days only if an album is on top 50-100 you can say how much it sells every week after a release is dropped off the top 100.
There used to be Under 101 charts by livedoor blogs oricon subscribers but there isn't anymoer unfortunately, but for Love songs, it's out of the top 300 so there's no way to know how much it sells (or anything else that is out of the top 300).

Andrenekoi · #12 17th May 2011, 10:32 PM

Still... it's not like it stopped charted for good... those albums with small sales have very close numbers, 20 sales can make a huge difference on the chart... So, it may chart again for some weeks later...

TITANIC · #13 18th May 2011, 03:49 AM

it might be popped up again next week or not anymore

adantatu2 · #14 18th May 2011, 04:38 AM

ok, Love songs did well on the charts

brener · #15 18th May 2011, 07:37 AM

thanks Love songs, you did great!

sanzo2011 · #16 18th May 2011, 10:29 AM

I'm happy enough with Love songs sales!

C+R+E+AYUMI · #17 20th May 2011, 08:25 AM

Single Collection Vol.2 is counted towards Oricon 2010 though. Plus it's a best of for the bigger part and Checkmate! is a compilation, dunno if we should compare them with Love songs and Dejavu.

aiko had 2 best ofs released which have done quite well if you want to count those in as well, JUJU should be releasing an album sooner or later, but that could go both ways. Kana should have no problems selling over 400k though.
