Just a quick post to express my happiness over Arashi's first week sales for All the Best. It sold 753,000 copies, and now holds the record for best first week sales in 2009. I honestly did not think it would do this well, and I'm ecstatic that it did. It's now officially their best selling album, with more than twice the total sales of their first album (which was their best selling until now). Further more, they've had a great second week as well, already selling 60k+ copies, for a total of 815k. I was worried that sales would drop a lot second week, so I was pleasantly surprised to see that sales actually went UP on the second day of week 2 (first day of week 2 was 28k, second was 33k). I can't wait to see third day sales! At this rate, I KNOW they can reach a million <3
EDIT: Random note, but my copy of the CD FINALLY shipped today. So hopefully I'll be seeing it soon...I'm waiting for it to hear the bonus track or whatever at the end of 5x10 that I've heard is so awesome. I originally promised myself I wouldn't listen to 5x10 until I got my copy, but I just couldn't wait for that lol
EDIT 2: So far second week sales are 90-something thousand, for a total of 850k. Also, Arashi is number 1 on the GLOBAL ALBUM CHARTS. Tell me that isn't awesome.
150k more to go guys! <3
sales,
