I love it, too! But from my observation, Japan seems to love artists who stick to the same type of music over and over again. Look how long it took them to get use to Namie's new genre.
yes I have a feeling that the public got scared by Bold & Delicious initally which's a pity as that's 1 of my fave songs on (miss)understood

I guess they stick to the whole 'why fix it when it ain't broken' analogy but for me I don't see any reason/s as to why ayumi shouldn't try out different music styles , regardless on how bad/good the final product's

I know, exactly right? but it seems like the Japanese public only likes her as long as she does churn out M version 3, fairyland version 4, Who... version 6 and so on.

(I'm not saying that you do) But if you want her to experiment, DON'T COMPLAIN ABOUT THE SALES.

Mhmm, instead it should be "if it aint broken, make it better" and that sems to be Ayumi's way of thinking.

actually I kinda am surprised in a way that NEXT LEVEL's sales are even less than GUILTY considering that it was released in 4 different editions against the standard CD & CD + DVD

this shows that physical CD sales are getting worst as time goes by in Japan

^ Same

My thoughts on GUILTY haven't changed since I first heard the album, but for NL, I find I'm liking it more as time passes. I think I've listened to NL more than when I first got GUILTY

mmm it doesn't have to be like that... I can0t imagine female albums selling only 400-500K from now on... I think sales will encrease when the economical situation will be better... crisis+experimenting new style in japan= 90% not selling well... I hope future sales will be better...

And about trying new styles... I wonder how it'll be her next single... if she will keep the NL style or not...

Actually i'm one of those people and i'm still sort of mad. 4 interludes!? At least one of the 4 interludes on Guilty was a pseudo-song.
I didn't get mad, but I didn't like it either... the only bad thing about the album is this... 4 interludes... the songs are AMAZING!
