Japanese chart

edit

"Moving" is not a number-one single in Japan. Besides,she did not produce any charting singles on the most eminent Japanese hit parade called Oricon, though all her studio albums entered the top 100 in the country's same chart.[1]

Fansite cited as a source is somewhat questionable, because it is far different from other available sources about Japanese charts. According to below links, these are the songs reached the number-one on the JP chart in 1978, but her song not appear anywhere in the following lists. When her single climbed the top?ーーーFugreena (talk) 17:58, 6 August 2008 (UTC)Reply
