Revision as of 10:10, 28 January 2024

181920 is the first greatest hits album by Japanese singer Namie Amuro, released under the Avex Trax label on January 28, 1998. The album covers twelve singles which were released prior to Amuro's maternal hiatus in 1998, three of which had been originally released under her previous label, Toshiba-EMI. The title of the album derives from the fact that its material spans the ages 18–19–20 during which she recorded these songs. Her ninth single, Dreaming I Was Dreaming is exclusive to this release.

It was reissued as a DVD-audio version on January 28, 2004. On March 31, 2004 it was paired with Amuro's first video collection (CD+DVD) under the title 181920 & films. The 181920 & films CD has a Copy Control specification.

Information

181920 contains one single from Super Monkey's Try Me (Watashi o Shinjite) and Amuro's first two solo singles (SEASON of the Sun and STOP THE MUSIC), all with the Toshiba-EMI record label. Dance Tracks Vol.1, the album these singles first appeared on, is a Super Monkey's remix album, when Amuro was a member of that group. The rest of the singles are from her first two original studio albums, Sweet 19 Blues and Concentration 20, both from the avex trax record label.

181920 took the top spot of the album chart with 857,100 units sold in its first week. It stayed at number 1 with 326,270 copies sold in its second week. The album stayed in the top 20 for 7 weeks and on the Oricon charts for a total of 27 weeks.[1] 181920 sold over 1.6 million copies during its original chart run and over 2 million in total. 181920 is also the 108th best selling album of all time in Japan and is Amuro's fourth best selling album.[2] Because Amuro's first three singles are from a different record label they are missing from 181920 on iTunes.[3][4]

The album was certified for two million copies shipped to stores in 1998.[5]
