- Information
"Mirrorcle World" is the 43rd single released by Hamasaki Ayumi. The song "Mirrorcle World" is actually a full-length version of the song "Mirror" which is the intro to her ninth studio album, "GUILTY". "Mirrorcle World" will be used in Panasonic FX-35 commercials while "Life" will be used in music.jp commercials as well.
The single was released exactly 10 years after her major label debut single, "poker face" and thus it features two new recordings of her second and fifth singles, both released in 1998: "YOU" and "Depend on you".
On the 7th of March, the full "Mirrorcle World" song leaked. Moreover, both versions of the Mirrorcle World single leaked on April 6th.
Mirrorcle World debuted on the Oricon charts at #1 and after 3 days it dropped to #2, beaten by Shuuchishin's self-titled debut single. Just after three days it surpassed the first week sales of Hamasaki's 42nd single talkin' 2 myself with sales of about 90,000. Ninki-do surveys predicted that Mirrorcle World will sell more than 84,000 copies but it surpassed the prediction. Mirrorcle World got the #1 position on the weekly charts and did beat Shuuchishin's single.
Mirrorcle World was Hamasaki's first single since Bold & Delicious / Pride not to reach #1 for a full week in the daily charts. However the single has the highest first week sales of a female artist in 2008 so far, and Hamasaki's highest first week sales since BLUE BIRD, released almost 2 years ago.
Mirrorcle World has been certified gold by RIAJ for shipment of 100,000 copies in Japan .
