Debut daily ranking is #10. It probably would've done better if the album wasn't released next week. (At least it's in the top ten. 8))

Yeah especially when two of the songs are in the album so Top 10 is pretty good imo.

There's a chance that it might climb up in the weekly ranking.

Post by: SomethingWild on October 15, 2009, 09:36:19 AM
Top 10 is excellent! Yes, the fans have spend a lot on pre-ordering all those albums, so that probably hurt the single sales somewhat.

How did Shoujo S do? Shoujo had the benefit of multiple versions and anime tie-in, so I'm guessing it did better?

They didn't perform "Yumemiru Tsubasa" today on MUSIC FAIR, but it continues for two weeks, so they will probably perform it in the 24th. :)

Today, they did a cover of Yoshida Takuro's song "Image no Uta" with THE ALFEE, the Magoko Borthers, the Gospellers, and Nakagawa Shoko.

*faints* I can now rest in peace happily knowing that the photobook is.... sheer awesomeness!!! OMG, soft cover, so thick, and huge! >w< It was so worth the amount of money! >w< Crap, now I really can't wait to get it! Just a few more days till the release, and a week or so after till I get it!!! >w< Waaaah~ *fangirlism*

And wow, that video is so funny.... Mami was so embarrassed, or at least, she seemed it.  :lol: It was fun to see Perfume commenting on them, too, just flipping through the book like it was.... yeah.  XD

EDIT: And I am so going to go and make a GIF of Tomo and Haru dancing. :lol: Such a Kodak moment right there. =P

Goddamn! Why didn't I get the PB version instead of the DVD version? Shiiiiet, I could have always downloaded the DVD. Seriously, that PB is like twice as thick as normal idol PBs :shocked:

Scandal x Perfume interaction was awesome and yeah, that little dance Tomomi & Haruna did was pretty epic :lol:
Title: Re: [2009.10.14] 4th Single Yumemiru Tsubasa
Post by: suicune141 on October 18, 2009, 08:57:22 PM
^ Aww, it's okay. If it's any consolation, I'm going to try to do some scans of the photobook when I get it. And you can bet I'll be sharing the pics with you guys~  ;) That is, if someone else doesn't get to it first. I might be getting mine really late, depending on circumstances.  :nervous

I just can't believe it's that huge, either.  :shocked: From what I've seen online, most photobooks are about.... 20 pages or so long? And not as big. I feel like this is a coffee table book we're talking about here, or something. :lol:

So...combined with the few glimpses we saw of the book in the BEST*SCANDAL CM, along with this little clip from MUSIC JAPAN, I reckon we've seen spoilers of....6 pages of the book? Hmm... Such teasers.  :lol:

If that caused any problems, really sorry.  :banghead: I use iTunes a lot, and so I usually use Keepvid and download in .mp4 since it's higher quality than just .flv and then converting. So yeah.... If anyone has a problem viewing it, like I said VLC Media Player, or.... I could try converting.  :nervous Dunno how that would turn out, I suck at video conversion.  :lol:

^ I agree. :( This could really hurt their career.  :cry: I mean, it seems like their popularity is really taking off now (I mean, I'm seeing many surges of new fans lately), and if their newest single isn't doing well-- *can't find a good enough smilie*
Title: Re: [2009.10.14] 4th Single Yumemiru Tsubasa
Post by: lambchopsuey on October 20, 2009, 11:13:12 PM
#13 isn't anything to be sad about. I mean, not every artist takes off right away. alan's been putting out great music since her debut, but her first album didn't even sell 30,000 copies. It took her nine singles to get her first appearance on MUSIC STATION.

If you want a great-to-flop artist, it's Ito Yuna. She's got a beautiful voice, but since "Precious", everything from her has just been terrible. Her singles don't even chart as well as she did at the start of her career, and her latest album only sold 35,738 copies.

Meanwhile, SCANDAL's been creating a buzz since their indie days. I wouldn't say that they're dropping just yet. They just released their debut album.

They got #13, not #98. Did you guys really expect #1 or something?

Post by: suicune141 on October 20, 2009, 11:27:10 PM
^ Uh, no.... I didn't. But I think we're more concerned about the number of copies sold. Sure, they're not like Ayumi Hamasaki or Koda Kumi where they're expected to just have their stuff fly off the shelves. If anyone thinks that, they're either obsessed or just....sadly.... >_< Oblivious. I don't think anyone here really could think they'd pull off number 1. The rare people who can do that... are just too widespread or mainstream.

But yeah, I think I can safely say it's the number of copies sold. Not the rating. What did you expect us to say in response to the status of Yumemiru? >_< It's not good, really. It could be better. I mean what do you think?

They got #13, not #98. Did you guys really expect #1 or something?
Their chart position isn't bad at all but 6000 copies ain't really that much. I expected them to sell around 10 000 copies because their previous single did quite well. Unfortunately it seems that most people who bought ShoujoS only did it because the song is the Bleach opening song (anime & dorama songs always do better than normal singles). I also believe that releasing the single only a week before the album hurt their sales. I can imagine that a lot of fans saved their money for the album (the CD+PB edition ain't cheap!) and skipped the single. The positive thing is that Scandal seems to have a large fanbase outside Japan so people really shouldn't get worried about their sales.

Hehe, hope you don't mind, Masa, but I quoted a bit of your statement here for a new section of my blog, "SCANDAL NEWS BULLETIN" a.k.a news blurb posts.  :lol: Kinda like a newspaper, with a quote from a concerned yet informed citizen (you).  :rofl: I feel very news journalist-y right now.  :lol: If you wanna see the post it's here~ (http://scandaljpop.wordpress.com/2009/10/21/news-oricon-chart-best%E2%98%85scandal-hk-press-etc/)
