The Emancipation of Mimi

Hi Nathan, I uploaded it again and also updated the source at The Emancipation of Mimi. I am not sure how or why it was deleted, normally those files on MedieFire never get deleted, I have other files uploaded and they've been there for many months if not over a year. Probably some anti-Carey person deleted it:).--Harout72 (talk) 16:12, 3 February 2011 (UTC)

RE:

Sure that's fine. And in a small lil look, I'd suggest you trimming down the singles section just a bit, its a little too extensive lol. Not much tho. And I see talk of singles working for the album, I def wanna do "Shake It Off." That's my track. Candyo32 - Happy New Year :) 15:14, 6 February 2011 (UTC)

Could you give me the brief lowdown on the difference between info included in "Development and recording" and "Background." ?Candyo32 - Happy New Year :) 15:28, 6 February 2011 (UTC)

I know my reply doesn't belong her, but lol, yes. I don't like Jonas Brothers. Justin Bieber is good and tolerable, but Jonas... Yes, I love Raven!! I used to roll on the floor (and still do, sometimes, lol) when I see it. It's just so damn funny. Lol @ friend's house :D Novice7 | Talk 15:39, 6 February 2011 (UTC)

Yes, Demi's in rehab, Miley with her "too adult" image. Selena is the only one, that I feel, does justice to Disney. I used to watch Nickelodeon too, but their shows never come close to Disney shows (iCarly is great though). Oh well, guess we've lost them :( Novice7 | Talk 15:49, 6 February 2011 (UTC)
Victorious is great!! I saw it for some episodes, and really liked it. Novice7 | Talk 15:58, 6 February 2011 (UTC)

Mariah Carey

Nathan, I have included Japan's figures from 1 million seller database since they are considered awards by RIAJ. So, 5 million units are coming directly from 1 Million Seller Database and 350,000 are coming from the certification database which includes Gold (100,000) and Platinum (250,000) certifications. See Carey's certifications here. Also, as you may already know from the footnotes on the list, we are to include those markets, the total certification-figures of which are over 300,000 units. See what it looks like in the table.--Harout72 (talk) 19:10, 6 February 2011 (UTC)

Nathan, I have added 2 more million to Japan's figure, now it's 7.3 including all three million units from Ones. Australia's certifications are not in PDF, how are we going to post it as a source so readers/editors can verify the information? We can't use this as it has nothing to do with certifications directly, it's a just a sales figure.--Harout72 (talk) 05:34, 7 February 2011 (UTC)

Nathan, with regards to Spanish certifications, PROMUSICE's site supports records released only after 2004, and some records released a little earlier than 2004 appear on there too sometimes, I checked and Carey doesn't seem to have any certifications in Spain between 2004 and present. So all her certifications must have been issued in Spain before 2004 and we cannot use that source to support what it doesn't contain. As for Canada's certifications, I have previously retrieved only Elton John's and Mariah Carey's certifications, for the rest I am going to wait until their database is back online; however, I seem to have Dion's complete list of certifications for Canada in PDF from CRIA, I think you e-mailed it to, right? So I will go ahead and post her certifications on there too, and maybe wait for their database to revive, to post the rest.--Harout72 (talk) 16:14, 7 February 2011 (UTC)

Re:Nippy

It's okay Nat! Actually, I had forgotten about them myself :D Novice7 | Talk 04:01, 11 February 2011 (UTC)

I won't :D I just have to get synopsis of music video and some more reviews. Novice7 | Talk 04:16, 11 February 2011 (UTC)
Thanks! I got them! Don't worry, I'll surely complete TGIFY :D – Novice7 (talk) 03:36, 16 February 2011 (UTC)

RE

Hi, I can't give you any official link but I can tell you Mariah positions on Oricon Albums Year-End chart between 2004 and now:
2005 YEC:
no 51 - The Emancipation of Mimi (259,275 copies sold)
2008 YEC:
no 77 - E=MC2 (146,293 copies sold)
2009 YEC:
no ? (outside top 100) - Memoris of an imperfect Angel (73,042 copies sold)
no 308 - The Ballads (27,941 copies sold)
And I don't have any new sources for the Japanese sales... Max24 (talk) 16:01, 27 February 2011 (UTC)

In the Zone

Nathan you're being unreasonable. It's the only source for sales of the album. Xwomanizerx (talk) 05:29, 1 March 2011 (UTC)

Thanks man. Britney.com is being updated though, and we'll probably get new sales when it is. Do you think I should put it up for a peer review in a few days or it looks good for GA? Xwomanizerx (talk) 05:35, 1 March 2011 (UTC)
I'm so pumped today with the V magazine cover and the BTW video. I don't even care that Britney's not doing any promo :D. Do you know anything about Legolas? Xwomanizerx (talk) 05:48, 1 March 2011 (UTC)

Note

Hi Nat! Just stopping by to drop a note on TGIFY and FLAB. I would have exams the whole month (although there are only 5 subjects for the exam). I'll have gaps in between, and I promise I'll try to complete them within April 1. I know I've dragged this a loonnngg wayyyy!! I'm extremely sorry for that too. Also, you might have seen my FAC for "Irresistible" too. To Max: Where did you get the information from? I'd love to get the sales for Ayumi Hamasaki. — Novice7 (talk) 15:33, 28 February 2011 (UTC)

Sorry it took a little time to respond (I was @ this website) I was not not stalking Candy's talk, I was creeping around :P Thanks!!! Yeah, I know Mariah is famous... Naahh.. I thought I could revamp Ayumi's discography. I'll have to keep it aside for the moment. — Novice7 (talk) 15:53, 28 February 2011 (UTC)
Me? Oh, I live in this country, but in a different state (I mean not the same place as Legolas). I know you live in Miami. I know, India is an old country :) — Novice7 (talk) 09:35, 1 March 2011 (UTC)
OOh, did you hear about Rihanna doing "The Boduguard". Personally, I don't think she should do it. Maybe Jen Hudson? What do you think? — Novice7 (talk) 10:14, 1 March 2011 (UTC)
Well you read my mind. Beyonce is amazing, but, is it me or is it that her face has changed recently. She's not the charming woman she used to be when she started out. Jen Hud is thin, voice is good, but I agree, she lacks beauty. What about this girl? She's not like Ke$ha, Miley, Rihanna. Maybe a little too classy, but I like her. — Novice7 (talk) 10:29, 1 March 2011 (UTC)
Lol. MC is still beautiful :P Celine is still pretty. Bey has changed, and so has Rihanna, Whitney (remember when she looked 25 even when she was 28??).... Everything changes, but beauty remains, something so tender, I can't explain... LOL, sorry :D — Novice7 (talk) 10:42, 1 March 2011 (UTC)

(→) Celine may look old, but she is very down to earth. I've never seen any celebrity (other than MC) being so shy and down to earth.. Lol, Rihanna's songs are amazing, but she needs to dress properly. Red hair, see-through dress would never win her "diva" status. I mean, I really admire her work and felt bad for her (C.B. thing). I wish she would change her style.. Monae is really good, and I thought maybe film could push her to star status. As for Jessica, lmao, some of her songs are good. Especially her country music songs. She's from Texas.. As far as I know, she is nice kinda person. And, for Bodyguard.. what about McPhee? — Novice7 (talk) 12:21, 1 March 2011 (UTC)

Well Novice, Rihanna and Beyonce have both changed. I agree but not in the same way. For instance Beyonce is not being a big b**** like the former, showing off her body in her videos or even eating a banana as if she was eating something else. I really love Rihanna but i like her songs more than her personality. Now coming to body size, i prefer a woman like Beyonce or even Mariah Carey rather than having a skinny woman like Jennifer Hudson (i do love her) or the GaGa Lady (the one who makes men wear heels in her music videos). Never. Just like Legolas would have said, a girl like GaGa is a "complete no-no" for me. Lol. Frankly speaking all three of us are boys. When you hold a woman, would you prefer to hold bones or meat? I love women with curves though myself, i am quite thin. Jivesh • Talk2Me 15:36, 1 March 2011 (UTC)

Hey Jivesh, welcome :). Well, Beyonce is not what she used to be physically, she has gained weight and is not that toned, but lets hope she shapes up. As for Ri, I completely agree, that banana thing was so off lol. I don't like women that act so promiscuous! Well, I love Mariah's body, but the last year she got very heavy for the pregnancy, so I want her back to like 2005 :). I prefer in the middle, but not too meaty :D--CallMeNathan • Talk2Me 15:44, 1 March 2011 (UTC)
I agree with you Nathan. I don't want to break this, but I admire Mariah's personality and music more than her body, lol. As for the other thing, yes, I agree with Nathan again on that :P — Novice7 (talk) 16:09, 1 March 2011 (UTC)
Oops, I forgot to respond to you as well :). Well Mariah has a fabulous body, she just got heavy after 2009. I mean shes always had good curves, she needs to get back to it! And yes Novice, I always say that! People who don't know her think shes an oover the top diva, but she happens to be so shy, down to earth and graceful, that what I love so much! Lol, yup I see that for Jess, but she's too silly and not so smart lol. I don't like McPhee, but I think it has to be an Black woman or one that has some black background.--CallMeNathan • Talk2Me 16:16, 1 March 2011 (UTC)
Jess might not be smart, but I don't know, I started liking her somehow. Oh, I like McPhee, Mandy Moore... There are lottsss!!! I fell for MC because of her, I don't know, amazing personality that I've never seen in any other celebrity. Actually, the only part I like on S&M was the banana part. She seemed like this person to me :D I'm logging off now. Got lotta work to do tomorrow (it's night here) — Novice7 (talk) 16:22, 1 March 2011 (UTC)
Hahaha you naughty camper, that isn't appropriate! :) ttyl!!--CallMeNathan • Talk2Me 17:58, 1 March 2011 (UTC)

RE:=

I'm glad you re-posted because I didn't see the message from before. And YES I was crying, no not really..lol. But if not him, Drake should have won, not that random chick. But Bieber is still the best anyway. lol.. Well I have done some in Notepad, not in any Wiki space, so I'll extend from trying to have it done Saturday (eeeekkkk) to maybe mid-week? As usual I multitask and right now I'm trying to do alot with Bieber's film page while the info is still fresh, but I'm still doin TEOM. Candyo32 00:07, 15 February 2011 (UTC)

Ok ,I really wanted to be done by now. But dealing with this, this, and this opus, all piling up on me, I'm still in the process. But im getting there.. Candyo32 15:56, 17 February 2011 (UTC)
Getting there...slowly be surely. It's alot of information to go through. Candyo32 01:35, 27 February 2011 (UTC)
Well I thought it would be a long-term project, that I could do in a freely amount of time, not with a set date. I didn't know you were gonna get your stuff done so fast, and then expect mine right there with it. And I honestly wanted to be done with my part by those dates I had given you, it just never worked out. I am still working on the project, I have been working on it from Day 1, adding sources and tidbits daily via Notepad. Candyo32 12:19, 27 February 2011 (UTC)
Well the reason I finish some of GA's such as the Bieber ones so quickly is that the information is so readliy available. Also I like to go ahead and do this while the information is fresh and out there, while a dated album such as TEOM, the information is going to be in the same place. For older pieces, I want to make sure I cover all the information and search as many spectrums as possible. For example, when I did Goodies (album), I know it was in my sandbox for like two months, and some items have been in my sandboxes since September 2010! Also with it being such the opus that it is, I want to make sure the sections are respective of the album. Another thing is, if you've been looking at my edits, alot of them have been at school lately, which alot of sources for the article are blocked such as MTV, etc. I hope to be done by say March 20 if you want a date, but I would rather not because I can't promise it will be done by then lol. And I'm not responding not to be avoiding or what not, I usually mass reply to all my talk at the same time. But more importantly, school work which is increasingly difficult now, paired with preparing for college and doing scholarship is absorbing most of my time, which is why now on WIki most of my edits are just reverting vandalism on my GA's and expanding the Bieber work, my main goal on Wikipedia. Sorry if you thought I was abandoning the project or something, I just didn't know that you wanted a specific time frame on it. Candyo32 00:53, 3 March 2011 (UTC)

Yahoo! Music sales figures

Hey mate, how are you? I was hoping that if you ever are online when Paul Grein's digital blog thing comes out would you be able to ask him the sales figures of Usher's "You Make Me Wanna" and "Nice & Slow". It's not a big deal, but if it happens that you are online at the right time, then would you mind? Ta. Adabow (talk · contribs) 09:51, 4 March 2011 (UTC)

Help please.

Hi. Can you please explain this to me:

"The song features 'super-heavy funk' while faultlessly taking on classic's by JBs & Lynn Anderson."

Jivesh • Talk2Me 17:12, 20 February 2011 (UTC)

You should be a literature teacher. Lol. You explain so well. Jivesh • Talk2Me 12:00, 21 February 2011 (UTC)

Oh yes, you cannot even imagine the level. Lol. Jivesh • Talk2Me 13:32, 21 February 2011 (UTC)

No amd you? By the way, do you like Beyonce too? Jivesh • Talk2Me 14:55, 22 February 2011 (UTC)

I also like Mariah Carey. You are right. It's because i like real talent. I can proudly say that Beyonce, Mariah Carey, Ciara and Jennifer Lopez amongst others do not have to do eccentric things to be famous. They do not have to give countless interviews about their singles practically begging people to download them. So at the end, did you mean that you consider "I Am.,.. Sasha Fierce" to be her best work? To be frank, i love B'Day the most. Jivesh • Talk2Me 13:46, 23 February 2011 (UTC)

I also love Katy Perry. I mean, i have started loving her since her new album Teenage Dream. Her songs are so good now. I like to listen to songs whose lyrics make sense and since the release of her new album, she has been releasing such songs. I love "Firework" and "E.T" has begun growing on me. Coming to BritBrit, i simply adore her. "Hold it Against Me" is fabulous. No need to tell you my favorite remains Beyonce followed by Mariah, Kylie Minogue and i think.. Kelly Rowland. What type of music do you actually like? R&B or Pop? I completely forgot adding some lines about Lady GaGa. I used to love her sincerely but not now. It seems that she is taking over the whole music industry. She is not giving chance to others. I also think that she over-promotes her songs. Please do not think that i am flattering Beyonce but take a closer look at her way of doing things. When she releases a single, she does not go here and there, giving interviews about what motivated her for the song, when she recorded it, why she likes the song and all those needless stuffs. I hate her GaGa's way of doing promotion. She needs to rest. She can be compared to a bear always searching for salmons.Jivesh • Talk2Me 13:46, 25 February 2011 (UTC)

Oh i am so happy you love Katy Perry. Coming to Brit, whom i love since 2001, she has never disappointed me. Those who say she does, are simply jealous, (in my opinion). I admire hewer for being so courageous. I mean, she does not have a "fairy" life. Jivesh • Talk2Me 11:18, 27 February 2011 (UTC)

Oh my God, seems like you read my mind. I also feel the same. Rihanna should learn from her. Well, i would first choose Beyonce but she is married and coming to Katy Perry, seems like she is going to divorce, so i may try my chance with her. Lol Just joking. To tell you frankly, celebrity marriages have always intrigued me. I really do not think Beyonce is happy with Jay-Z. Jivesh • Talk2Me 12:00, 27 February 2011 (UTC)

Maybe they chose such partners because they both feared to never find true love. You are very right. Jay-Z is not good looking at all. Well Beyonce is not Miss Universe but she is not ugly. Beyonce should have wed someone like Usher. What is your opinion? Jivesh • Talk2Me 12:09, 27 February 2011 (UTC)

Yes, i agree she is beautiful. Nathan, i really loved chatting with you,. And i hope we do so more often because you are a very nice person. I really have to go now. By the way, i am currently working on I Am... Sasha Fierce. Jivesh • Talk2Me 12:28, 27 February 2011 (UTC)

Thank you for telling me that Nathan. It feels so good to know that you like my work. Really, thank you wholeheartedly. Yes, i will ask you for help if need be. You are really very reliable. See you very son (for a chat). Take care. Jivesh • Talk2Me 17:00, 27 February 2011 (UTC)

Hi Nathan. I have finished fixing I Am... Sasha Fierce. I mean, nearly finished. Can you write a better lead for me? If you are busy, feel free to refuse. I won't mind. Jivesh • Talk2Me 08:16, 1 March 2011 (UTC)

Yes, you got it right. Ummm... Are you sure you won't mind doing something "drastic"? Jivesh • Talk2Me 08:23, 1 March 2011 (UTC)

Actually, i would like you to give me some suggestions about how i can reduce the sizeof the article? And i you spot any errors, please correct them. Jivesh • Talk2Me 08:31, 1 March 2011 (UTC)

Do anything you feel is appropriate. My major problem is that i tend to write too lang sentences to say something which could have been only a few lines. I will really not mind you trimming the article. On the contrary i will be very happy because i have no idea of what to remove, You know, when you write an article, you will sad extracting some of its content even though they are unnecessary. I hope you know what i mean. Jivesh • Talk2Me 08:58, 1 March 2011 (UTC)

I am leaving for French tuition. I will be back after 6 hours. Thanks for lending me a helping hand. Jivesh • Talk2Me 09:03, 1 March 2011 (UTC)

Oh Nathan thank you infinitely. You are so great. Thank you thank you thank you. You made such a nice shaving. Thank you sincerely. You cannot imagine how happy i am at the moment. I just re-added"Hello" in the composition section because it borrows part of its chorus from an old song. Jivesh • Talk2Me 15:26, 1 March 2011 (UTC)

You did a great job Nathan. Don't be so humble. Can you tell me how i can get a sandbox? I want to create a song for the article "Daddy" by Beyonce. Jivesh • Talk2Me 17:02, 1 March 2011 (UTC)

Thank you very much. Do you think i can nominate I Am... Sasha Fierce for GA now? Jivesh • Talk2Me 18:06, 1 March 2011 (UTC)

Can you please explain the second part of this sentence to me:

"The most affecting song on Dangerously in Love is a track that Beyoncé initially thought to leave off the disc."

Jivesh • Talk2Me 18:11, 1 March 2011 (UTC)

By formatting, do you mean cite web, cite news, etc? I have already started my article here. Jivesh • Talk2Me 19:06, 1 March 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for the explanation. Extremely good as always. Jivesh • Talk2Me 17:03, 2 March 2011 (UTC)


Hi, i hope you are fine. I just saw Butterfly World Tour. You are so good at doing articles on "tours". Beyonce also has such articles but they are in a poor state,. I shall consider fixing them real soon. By the way, i just published my new article. Jivesh • Talk2Me 18:45, 3 March 2011 (UTC)

Wow in two hours. It's amazing. Thanks for your appreciation about the recently created article. By the way, if you see this,m most of Beyonce's GAs (Singles, songs, albums) are already done now. Wen i finished her soundtrack singles, i will start working on her tours. I will be very happy if you could give me some tips then. Not now. When i start. I think it is also hight time to get her discography article fixed. Jivesh • Talk2Me 11:31, 4 March 2011 (UTC)

Thank you Nathan. I will surely tell you if i need help. Thanks for being here. By he way, i re-read your previous message. I saw that Beyonce's parents are divorced. I really din't know about that. Jivesh • Talk2Me 17:40, 4 March 2011 (UTC)

To be frank, no. It really stunned me. I mean, Beyonce seems to believe so mush in her dad loyalty, i mean the way she sang on the song "Daddy". Anyway, celebrities' lives are like this. What do you think of this? Jivesh • Talk2Me 17:47, 4 March 2011 (UTC)

I will be back in 45 minutes. I am going to watch Gossip Girl. Blake Lively is so pretty. Jivesh • Talk2Me 17:49, 4 March 2011 (UTC)

I hate her outfit here but i have develop kind of a liking for her blond hair. Lo. Actually, i wanted you tell me if she looks good with Usher. I have always wanted them to marry ever since i saw them in the music video for "Naughty Girl". Jivesh • Talk2Me 18:40, 4 March 2011 (UTC)

Much better than the racist. Lol. Nathan, can you please explain this to me:

"Dangerously In Love 2" is awash in twinkling ivories and a programmed thump beat that seem at odds with one another.

Jivesh • Talk2Me 09:12, 5 March 2011 (UTC)

Thank you Nathan. Jivesh • Talk2Me 04:25, 6 March 2011 (UTC)
