[Single] Oogoe Diamond (10/22)

[momopi]

I wanted instrumentals, too. 109 is so awesome

Me too. OD and 109 are good songs for karaoke projects.

Oogoe Diamond jumped from #22 to #4 yesterday.

[Pavlova]

wow, such a jump

[Sayange]

And today they went down to #10

[Zunu]

10 is still good. The fact is that AKB has hooks all over their singles. This is a solid song and totally deserves the success.

But honestly, Angry-sama, in your devotion to everything related to AKB48, I'm surprised you haven't started to listen to Elmer Bernstein yet.

Ouch

How sad Unzu, we cannot cannot have a forum with something like: Rachmaninov Latest Single or something.

[Zunu]

Ouch

I wasn't trying to "ouch" ya... I thought that was really cool the way they sneaked the Magnificent Seven theme into the song.

How sad Unzu, we cannot cannot have a forum with something like: Rachmaninov Latest Single or something.

Yeh true, sad that there won't be any new Rachmaninoff or Debussy, but I guess if you wanted to talk Rach or Nodame OST or even like John Williams or something, you could review it here.

58,506 copies sold in two weeks!!!! AMAZING !

Edit: and 64k in 3 weeks!!!!!!!

[Sayange]

64,141

[Zunu]

The last two H!P singles to sell that high were Iroppoi Jirettai, 3+ years ago with 82K, and Balalaika, 2 years ago with 72K.
Nothing more recent has been close.
H!P doesn't look to be a force any more, at least in terms of chart sales.

Perfume's Baby Cruising Love is the next goal to fall, and at only 65,686, Oogoe has a chance to overtake it!!! Then comes Polyrhythm with approximately 69K. However, Perfume's most recent single sold more than 133K, so AKB isn't catching them...this time.

If AKB has any other girl-group competition, I can't think of it.

Good job, Akimoto-sama!!!
