Tower Records unveils their Yearly Bestseller Lists for 2015

Today Tower Records Japan have chosen to announce the releases which stand at the top of their Bestseller lists for the year 2015.  These rankings reflect the combined total sales of the Japanese, Imported, Limited, Analog, etc. versions of each Album/DVD sold through Tower Records stores from December 1st of last year through November 30th of this year.

The Japanese Year-End chart was topped by Arashi’s “Japonism”, while the Foreign Year-End chart has been topped by The Beatles’s remastered compilation album “1”. The Jazz category was ruled by Diana Krall’s “Wallflower”, with Goto Midori’s interpretation of J.S. Bach’s Sonatas and Partitas taking the top spot in the Classical category. As for Music DVDs, Arashi once again topped the ranking with their “ARASHI BLAST in Hawaii”; meanwhile, the top Soundtrack album of the year was that of the latest “Wild Speed Sky Mission” (“Fast & Furious”) film.  Finally, the top selling single at Tower Records’ stores was AKB48’s “Bokutachi wa Tatakawanai”, while the highest selling indie album was Suiyoubi no Campanella’s “Watashi wo Onigashima ni Tsuretette”.
