Translation into Japanese

Dear all,

The chart performance isn't that bad.  'Fairy' hit the 
top 10.  Xmas is peak season.  If you go to Oricon weekly,
you will find out the difference between one position can
be as low as 30 copies.  Every piece of sales get counted.
For those of you who are thinking of buying later or
buy the 'sample' copy, please note that your purchase in 
the first week might have helped Seiko to hit the top 30.

I am so happy that after 'Xmas Tree' in 91 and 'A time
for love' in 94 which have many very 'Xmas' songs comes
this ballad Xmas CD to balance it out.  I have
listened to 'Xmas tree' and 'A time for love' in the past 
2 days (Xmas tradition for fans?) and now turning
to the new CD tomorrow.

Cheers,

Bernard
