They didn't base it on anything except singles I guess
New single seems to have been met without about the same amount of hurrah as Color Bars

Definitely exceeded my expectations but I was expecting another TV theme catering to old people so a spy song was a pleasant surprise.

Agreed. The new single is actually pretty good. Although Ringo's spy themes in general are among my faves. I honestly don't think she has a bad one in the bunch.

Debuted at 34 with 1300 sales, a fraction of her usual.
Just goes to show how much her songs rely on the products they are for and that's just fucking sad. And yes, sales ARE a part of the conversation nowadays, because that's all she seems to give a fuck about.

Which chart is this? Oricon digital singles weekly chart has her debuting at #14 with 7,100 sales. (Source).
Still pretty weak for her standards I suppose, and it makes it her least impactful single since Jiyuu-dom I would guess. (Which is a shame considering the quality of this single otherwise). On the other hand album sales will probably be much stronger on the strength of it being a 'Best' album and the nostalgia factor for Disc 1. |

I was basing it on last weeks billboard 100
http://www.billboard-japan.com/charts/detail?a=hot100 That's a fucking massive discrepancy in count though, what the hell.

Kouzen no Himitsu PV is officially up!
Anddd not region-blocked. Watch here. [edit] Wonder what's up with the 'cinnamon' theme in the credits? I have to say, the PV does make me appreciate the song more. Last edited by thespidereggs : 2019.10.17 at 11:36 AM. |

Ahhh another video that's exactly the same thing. Guess it goes with the song.
*George Lucas 'it rhymes' joke here*

Style over substance again for the PV. The song is essentially a compilation of Ringo cliches. Guitaaaaarrrrr
