I feel the urgent need to claim my love for her outfit. <3 SO beautiful and cute. Her prefer her vocals and the overall performance over the Music Fair live too... Still, she need to practise upbeat songs, she's lacking movement and it's sad to see how she's just standing still and waiting for the instrumental part to be over xD Such a shy girl.

I actually still didn't get it why people don't like Diamond/Over the clouds as we do but well.. It's okay. Then let's hope for better results next time

Wish she has another Kuon no Kawa (sales-wise) soon! Though this is a huge improvement, both musically and commercially, from Swear

Me too! But Chi Bi really did help with the sales....alan really need to establish herself in the Jpop industry.....
It feels like Avex is just giving her tie-ins hoping they'll help~
And GOD EATER sold like 500,000 copies its first week.....so because a tie-in is successful doesn't mean her singles will be too....
It really only worked in the case of Kuon no Kawa

Well, at least avex is being really comprehensive considering their standards... They're making good PV's & artwork, and give her tie-ins and appearances.
At first I really thought they'd send her back to Tibet if her sales didn't improve, but she's in the industry to stay (let's hope so)

since when is almost 9000 not good?
charas last album sold under 8000 copies and she debuted almost 20 years ago. for those who don't know chara: ''Swallowtail Butterfly ~Ai no Uta~ - in total, the single sold 878,150 copies. Since this single's success, other artists such as Tsuji Ayano, Koda Kumi and MY LITTLE LOVER have covered the song.''
its not easy to sell like arashi these days. get over it.

LOL Same here I was afraid about the idea send her back to Tibet But I think they have a contract, about label and artist, so it's not that easy to just send her home when her sales isn't as how the label expected.

Yea I know almost 9000 is such a good result in reality.. The reason for my disappointment is maybe I've had too high expectation for Diamond/Over the clouds before it released. And it has a good tie-ins too.. I was surely thinking about it would rank #1 in Oricon or at least Top 3. So when it didn't come true I'm kinda judging it as failed.

I'm just worried......that Avex will one day think "Hmm....we're investing a lot on alan and she's not AYU BIG yet....why don't we give the money invested to some other artist that will make all the money for us!"

I know all that... Still, what bothers me is that many of the best-selling acts right now, like ARASHI, are (in my opinion) sh*t in comparison with alan or other great but unknown artists
Sorry if there are any Johnny's fans here, it's just my view

its not 2001 so don't expect all singles to suddenly sell 300,000 copies. the current daily NUMBER ONE single on oricon has sales of ~5500 - not 100,000,000,000.
if all fans get so dissapointed when it sells under xxx,xxx maybe you should just listen to the boybands
