Single Keyakizaka46 4th [Fukyouwaon] (2017/04/05)

450k. That's seriously impressive. Looks like there are a lot of people who are picking up the limited editions.
So adding one actually worked out.

If they are 1st weekly in digital that be another triumph.

 

Great 1st day =) Hoping for 530-550k 1st week sales

 

They are 1st and doing double of what 2nd place is selling on iTunes, so weekly #1 is not that impossible. Though I'd be surprised, lol, even if there really isn't any big hits like Hoshino Gen's Koi, with which Saison competed in its first days after release.

The 1st day numbers are great, hopefully they'll pass 550k 1st week.

 

450k, wow that's impressive. They'll pass 543k first week.

Past 1st Day Sales

Spoiler

Futari Saison (353,640)
Sekai ni wa Ai Shika Nai (250,523)

wow nice 1st day sales !!! congrats

WKeyakizaka no Uta (Music Box version)


if the video does not show watch the video here

 

About 100k compare to Futari, these girls is growing really fast

 

Does anyone know how to download the keyakizaka line stickers on the line store? i've tried the vpn trick but my friend told me you have to download an app to download the stickers (although he might be talking about the 4th single AR poster since i mentioned that too)

 

Not the biggest fan of the B-sides compared to Futari, but I still really enjoyed this single overall and those sales are really impressive.

I guess my A-side ranking so far is: Futari>Fukyouwaon>Silent>Sekai.

 

WHAT IS SPECIAL EDITION ??

 

These girls are growing so fast............I'm afraid it's too fast.

Techi Neru

 

Woah! Those 100K jumps are real. Although personally I found the B-sides weaker than Futari and the B-Side King SekaiAi, I think it's a fantastic single. I'm really proud of the Keya girls.

 

Thanks! And ikr the lyrics (and to some extent, the song) are boring enough to put any translator off. I heard this song only once and I won't bother for a second time. My least favorite Keya song till date.

 

I can't stand it. I was going to hold off, but there is too much dissing of the TechiNeru song. I don't want that to be the only permissible opinion. This is the one song in the release that makes my chest go kyun, and that's just from the sound, even before I figured out the lyric (thanks for the help, @too much idea). The lyric as sung makes it even stronger, by conjuring up difficult feelings in an artful way. The song is like Futari Saison in combining negative and positive emotions together, both in the lyric and in the way the voices come, and that combination is emotionally strong, for me. These kinds of situations are real, and very powerful, at any age.

My only problem with the song is the bland but noisy orchestration, and I'm getting over that -- or at last I'm able to ignore it. The voices -- even though it's Hatsune Neru and (to some extent) Hirate Miku -- are beautiful. And the rhythms of their singing work beautifully for me. Obviously others' mileage varies, but for me, pop music that is too perfect ends up sounding soulless. Neru's voice will never be accused of being perfect, lol. But Neru's tanuki magic works for me here, too. The amateurish edge in her voice makes it sound real, and somehow the combination of voices produces that constricting of my chest that I feel in the presence of Art.

I hope against hope that we will someday get a video of a performance of this song.

EDIT: By the way, looking at this useful thread, this appears to be the highest first-day sales ever of any 48/46 group except AKB48 and Nogizaka46. And Nogi didn't get there until its 12th single, Taiyou Knock.

 

Let me know if I'm incorrect but I believe SKE's coquettish had a higher first day sales.

 

Yes and no. Numbers wise it was 520k I think but that's after the music card gimmick contained in the theatre edition that doubles some percentage of its sales. It wasn't as impressive as this IMO.
