September 25, 200717 yr I'm kind of in two minds of this weeks chart. On one hand the majority of music within them is very good [especially the albums] - however, the sales are dreadful, especially for the #1s :o I wasn't expecting 300K for Ayu or anything, but I assumed it would do better than Glitter/Fated, considering it's so much better. I can see the Ayu train running out of steam faster then ever :( . I thought Angela would do better, considering HOME did 121K [or 112, I forgot :lol: ], but I think this will be a long term seller, so let's see how it goes. Yay for Hikki at 190K, she's totally getting the second biggest female song of the year [excluding ayaka x kokoburo]. Kuu surprisingly didn't drop a lot at all, and arashi still top 10 :D In the top 10 albums, there is only 3 I don't like/own. I'd really like to check out Hikawa Kiyoshi, I have heard nothing but good things. I'm thinking Ketsumeishi could sell a million by the years end, all the other albums have been very consistant in sales [from what I remember]. On a personal note, shame on the people who didn't buy 'How to use SEXY' :lol: imo it's one of the best H!P albums, it doesn't even sound like an idol album, bar the odd chorus. They never promote artists right though, although they make so much money off everything else they probably don't mind the albums never sell well. This week is pretty damn awesome for releases imo. YUI, BoA and SEAMO in singles, and Ai Otsuka, Tokyo Jihen, Foo Fighters and PUFFY in albums. The best week in a while imo. While i'd like to see BoA come out tops in singles, I think YUI will take it. Ai had immense NINKI numbers, i hope that translates into sales :o Hopefully my CDJ order will ship it tommorrow. I hope PUFFY do well also, Japan doesn't seem to care about them anymore :( I will have to wait till next week to order my copy of 'Honeycreeper' unfortunately, but I hope top 20 is obtainable for them.
