Help??

Hi Ada buddy :) I'll get on your Experiment review soon, and I'm so sorry that B'Day failed again. Maybe I can help you?? And, btw, if you're free, can you crop some images for me? This and this? [If you could upload the cropped version as a separate file, it'd be nice :)] Also, can you successfully download this image's high def image? I can't somehow :( Novice7 (talk) 09:47, 19 April 2011 (UTC)

Perfect. As for the second image, anyway you like :) It'd be good if you could crop off everything but the mic and Carey :) Lol, I just saw the B'Day nom. It must pass this time, and I'll help you as much as I can :D Btw, the third image, is it working?? And, oops! So sorry for making you waste your bandwidth :D Novice7 (talk) 10:43, 19 April 2011 (UTC)
Yes, of course.. You haven't downloaded any song recently? I control my bandwidth like nothing, lol. I start downloading three or four songs together, and then cancel all of them. I am stupid, aren't I? Btw, I just noticed something on B'Day – Both "P"latinum and "p"latinum are used. We should fix them for consistency, shouldn't we? Novice7 (talk) 10:53, 19 April 2011 (UTC).
Perfect. Thank you sooo much :) I'll fix the P(p) issues, and have a sound sleep. Good night. Novice7 (talk) 10:58, 19 April 2011 (UTC)

B'Day edit

I reverted part of your edit to the article, here. You did not explain why the change was warranted; the grade B+ is not an award, so the diction wasnt encyclopedic, while the grade does not need to be mentioned as it is shown in the ratings template, while The Guardian criticism works better with the section's flow when following the Allmusic one; both features similar criticism/tone. Dan56 (talk) 21:31, 19 April 2011 (UTC)

No problem. Dan56 (talk) 21:37, 19 April 2011 (UTC)

Retirement

Hi Adabow. Sorry for so late reply. Actually i will not be here very often now. This is my last month of editing. The article looks great. There is nothing more to be added. I mean you have used all the links i had archived on my computer. It really looks nice. I saw B'Day failed. Let me take it to GA now. Please. I promise i will not let it fail this time. Give me a chance. Jivesh Talk2Me 15:13, 19 April 2011 (UTC)

Also i wish to thank you wholeheartedly for sparing sop much time for Knowles DVDs. Jivesh Talk2Me 15:13, 19 April 2011 (UTC)
Thank you Adaabow for telling me those words. It feels nice to know that i will be missed. By the way, after a few listens, i totally fell in love with "Girls". The song is fantastic. Totally love it. What about you? Jivesh Talk2Me 15:26, 20 April 2011 (UTC)

B'Day Deluxe track listings

I'm not understanding why you need the international edition to have it's own track list when it only has three new songs tacked to the end of it. The version I keep citing from Beyoncé's official site, and YES even iTunes uses has a slightly altered track order as "World Wide Woman" is placed as track 8 and the inclusion of "If". In fact, searching for international versions of the album, I fail to find versions that include "Still in Love" as all the ones I've seen include "If". RatiziAngeloucontribs 04:13, 20 April 2011 (UTC)

I just remember back on the release of B'Day Deluxe, I had international friends that complained that they didn't get "Still in Love" or it's music video because it was a U.S. exclusive. I don't think the standard international version ever carried the song. And either way, what you've labeled as international version is the current U.S. track list so it doesn't make any sense to me. Maybe we should open a discussion on the subject matter since neither of us agree. RatiziAngeloucontribs 12:54, 20 April 2011 (UTC)
No, I remember this being before talks of a law suit. She shot the video for "Still in Love" last minute and it was rushed onto the US version but "If" had already been set on the international version. RatiziAngeloucontribs 01:17, 21 April 2011 (UTC)
It's funny, if you watch the clip, the first words she says "I'm so in love" I believe, are not synced up to when she actually says it on the dvd. Apparently the shot they video to the demo of the song and fixed it up later so there was a bit of a time delay with the intro. However, on cliff watts official site, the original video can been to the demo of the song and the lip sync timing is perfect.
But I don't want it to seem like I'm just saying the track order is correct. Amazon still provides the track order with "still in love" even though it's changed so I'm sure some international source can provide a legitimate cite. RatiziAngeloucontribs 01:25, 21 April 2011 (UTC)

"Irresistible"

So Adabow, I left messages on three users' talk page, but they didn't reply :( Guess "IR" would fail this time too... Btw, do you have an account on Admintools? I have one and it's amazing! Novice7 (talk) 07:13, 20 April 2011 (UTC)

Thanks, I will. (Can you suggest a few people?) As for the wiki, basically, yes. But, there can be vandalism too. Novice7 (talk) 07:33, 20 April 2011 (UTC)
I will ask a few of them, thanks. And, it's okay and you do dishes? Soo sweet :) Novice7 (talk) 09:43, 20 April 2011 (UTC)
That is really sweet Adabow. I do dishes too :D Novice7 (talk) 09:47, 20 April 2011 (UTC)
When is it released? It may come late on Ovi, lol. As for the FAC, no I haven't. Should I? Novice7 (talk) 12:06, 21 April 2011 (UTC)
Dude, it's midnight =O You're a real Bey fan, aren't you, lol?? I remember once waiting outside the CD store to get I Look to You. They had to bring it from some other place of theirs, lol. If I should say the truth, "Girls" doesn't sound too bright to me :( Novice7 (talk) 12:11, 21 April 2011 (UTC)
It is really fun! The reason I had to wait was that Mariah, Whitney and some other singers (Colbie Caillat, Kelly Rowland :O, even Usher!) are not so popular here ;( Beyonce is kinda but Rihanna is super popular! I might download "Girls", but the lyrics could've used better words :| Novice7 (talk) 12:18, 21 April 2011 (UTC)
Good night :D Don't let the bed bugs bite ya ;) Novice7 (talk) 12:22, 21 April 2011 (UTC)

Re: Downloads

No problem. I think we need to work on the 'Release history' section. Other than iTunes, Australia has Get Music and Bandit FM - here and here Ozurbanmusic (talk) 11:08, 21 April 2011 (UTC)

RE!

Thanks!! :DD I did alot a while back but I wanted to do all together. The last time I did that was when I nominated the album and all the singles for Ready at the same time. Lol! And thanks for that tip, so do I just add my articles to the list? I don't believe I've talked to you about "Girls" yet. Its not my favorite Bey track and I am basically forcing myself to LOVE it, but I like it anyway, its gonna grow on me after more listens and definitely when the video comes out. It's definitely vintage Beyonce though and is like her work on B'Day with a harder edge. I'm thrilled that she stuck urban and didn't go too electropop-ish. But I really wish she could get more lyrical content other than female empowerment. You'd think Ne-Yo was her ghostwriter LOLLL!!!!! Anyway the Queen has just told her subjects (Gaga, Katy, Rihanna, Ke$ha, Britney, etc.) what the deal is. Candyo32 01:41, 21 April 2011 (UTC)

Thanks Adabow!! & Yess, hopefully Bey is saving the big guns for later. And I love your little Last Supper thing on your talk. It's almost Easter! :)Candyo32 14:09, 22 April 2011 (UTC)

Run The World

Do you think it should be mentioned in the article that the single was initially rumored to be called "Girls"? Jivesh Talk2Me 15:19, 21 April 2011 (UTC)

Will you consider this as a review? I applause this writer. Whatever he said about the song is absolutely right. Jivesh Talk2Me 16:18, 22 April 2011 (UTC)

Your GA nomination of The Experiment (album)

The article The Experiment (album) you nominated as a good article has been placed on hold . The article is close to meeting the good article criteria, but there are some minor changes or clarifications needed to be addressed. If these are fixed within seven days, the article will pass, otherwise it will fail. See Talk:The Experiment (album) for things which need to be addressed. Novice7 (talk) 06:54, 22 April 2011 (UTC)

Hi! I was looking through Google News Archive and found this this and this. Of any use? Novice7 (talk) 05:00, 23 April 2011 (UTC)
Um, you should like this – [1], [2], [3], [4]. Novice7 (talk) 05:11, 23 April 2011 (UTC)
It's my pleasure to help my fellow editors :) That should be enough to fill up the sections, lol. Btw, did Dane do anything else to promote the album? (like a tour, a mini-concert?) Novice7 (talk) 05:28, 23 April 2011 (UTC)
Great! I'll take a look at the review later. Novice7 (talk) 05:57, 23 April 2011 (UTC)
It's nothing compared to what you've done for me :) Amazing job on the article. Too bad the album won't come to India :( Novice7 (talk) 06:02, 23 April 2011 (UTC)
I don't know, now that I've read the whole article, I've started liking his music :D Wow that song!! I swear the opening music is similar to a tune I've heard before!! Hmm... Maybe Fallin' for You + The Story of Us? Or maybe just my imagination :D Novice7 (talk) 06:13, 23 April 2011 (UTC)

Where the hell is Beyonce?

Adabow, where is Beyonce? Why isn't she promoting her single? I do not know where she might be but if i knew, i would have dragged her ass to get her where she should be, that is on Ellen show, Tyra show, etc. etc. Sorry for using such words but it kind of irritates me that Beyonce is doing no promotion. Jivesh Talk2Me 08:02, 23 April 2011 (UTC)

Do you think the single will flop? Jivesh Talk2Me 08:10, 23 April 2011 (UTC)
Adabow. let's be frank, how many of us liked "Single Ladies" om its premiere? But it finally grew on everyone. It was such a hit. Plus, Beyonce did a lot of promotion for it before its release. Next, it debuted wit ha music video. Even more important, it was sent to radio before being released physically and digitally. Jivesh Talk2Me 08:12, 23 April 2011 (UTC)
And i can bet Beyonce wanted to release it on April 26, 2011. Jivesh Talk2Me 08:14, 23 April 2011 (UTC)
As Beyonce would say, "i heart it". I really love it. For me, it is better than "Deja Vu" but i will not say it is better than "Single Ladies". It hope it does not flop. A user on Legolas' page told that it was good the single was not doing well. He even said that Beyonce needs a flop so that her ego does not become as big as that of Lady GaGa. Trust me, if i was online at that time, i would have replied him with a bunch of terrific words. Lol. Jivesh Talk2Me 08:25, 23 April 2011 (UTC)
What is its rank on iTunes US? Jivesh Talk2Me 08:26, 23 April 2011 (UTC)
Okay, i am currently expanding the article. See you later. Take care. Jivesh Talk2Me 08:45, 23 April 2011 (UTC)
Shouldn't it be mentioned in the article that the single's release was rushed because of the leak? Jivesh Talk2Me 09:19, 23 April 2011 (UTC)
[5]????? Jivesh Talk2Me 09:24, 23 April 2011 (UTC)
Um, good job on the article guys. But, I do see some redundancies. Jivesh, that comment is nothing. Imagine what I would feel when people say "Crackney" or "Flop Whitney". They also call her some very bad names :( Novice7 (talk) 12:03, 23 April 2011 (UTC)
Adabow, why did you leave me that message? And novice, i know you are right but that really "boiled" my blood. Lol. Jivesh Talk2Me 12:08, 23 April 2011 (UTC)
Thanks. Happy Easter to you as well. Bye. Goodnight and have Sweet dreams of Beyonce's upcoming video. Lol. Jivesh Talk2Me 12:13, 23 April 2011 (UTC)

So I'm really curious...

What do you think of "Run the World (Girls)"? I will be honest, I do not like it at all :(--CallMeNathanTalk2Me 17:05, 21 April 2011 (UTC)

Lol. I guess it will take the radio for me.--CallMeNathanTalk2Me 17:12, 21 April 2011 (UTC)
Already done my friend :)--CallMeNathanTalk2Me 17:19, 21 April 2011 (UTC)
Sorry for the delay in the GA review. I have been really busy this week. I will get to it for tomorrow night :)--CallMeNathanTalk2Me 22:34, 22 April 2011 (UTC)
Someones more religious :P The review is up Ada (Andy :P) :)--CallMeNathanTalk2Me 08:41, 24 April 2011 (UTC)
Lol, "Lady Gaga sings about it". Some people are clueless. I mean, if you're going to celebrate the holidays and traditions, then at least know the flipping story behind it :)--CallMeNathanTalk2Me 08:51, 24 April 2011 (UTC)
OMG Ada, I cannot turn myself to liking that song lol. I almost never like a song right away, heck now I'm starting to like "Judas" a bit, but "RTW" is still not hitting it for me :( Hb U? Have you started liking it? Its a real shame, I really don't know what they were thinking. It pisses me off because I'm sure the video will be great!--CallMeNathanTalk2Me 08:58, 24 April 2011 (UTC)
OMG Ada, you are SO biased with her lol. I mean, I am realistic when MC fails AKA Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel lol. I hope it will grow on me, but maybe after a hopefully sick as video! Hmmm, I agree, Gaga is very ehhh these days. The crassness just doesn't cut it anymore. Her popularity is very noticeably in decline. Look at her sales, charting, music video views. Its all going down hill from here. Yes, it is hard for songs to appear on charts after such a short release. It usually never happens. Lets see. I think the song will do worst in Europe than in the US, US people like Urban stuff more I feel.--CallMeNathanTalk2Me 09:19, 24 April 2011 (UTC)

I looked at that too. Down to 2.5 out of 5 on the US versions :( Lets just wait and see :)--CallMeNathanTalk2Me 09:26, 24 April 2011 (UTC)

Hi! Hi!

Hello Adabow. Can I call you Andy (Andrew shortened)? How was Easter? I was wondering if you can help me with my FAC. Ipodnano has asked to paraphrase the quote by Birgisson. You know I'm not good in paraphrasing :D Can you help me? Novice7 (talk) 03:53, 24 April 2011 (UTC)

(talk page stalker) I was wondering the same Andrés, can we call you Andy? And Novice I suggest this:
  • "Pam[ela] came up with the title 'Irresistible', and as she started talking about the whole concept we immediately became inspired and began working on the music. ... Both Anders and I get a feel for the song's vibe; a feel for whether a keyboard or guitar should be used to give it a certain character, be it upbeat or melancholic ... We immediately came up with the tempo and the whole feeling of the song, and then she came up with the lyrics. (probably can be removed->) There was a really good flow to that song (<-). We played around with the melody, put down the demo, and it was done." What do you think? Tbhotch* ۩ ۞ 04:12, 24 April 2011 (UTC)
Urrgh, not Andy. Andrew, Andrés (that's exotic lol) or Ada is fine, but I HATE Andy :D. And Tbhotch seems to have hit the nail on the head there. Adabow (talk · contribs) 05:06, 24 April 2011 (UTC)
I just stoleadded the content you proposed Tbhotch :D Thank you... (infinity)!!! And, Adabow, I'll just call you Ada or Andrés :) Novice7 (talk) 07:58, 24 April 2011 (UTC)
Well, you're welcome; it's nice to know that people plagarize follow my ideas :) Tbhotch* ۩ ۞ 08:11, 24 April 2011 (UTC).

Thanxxx for reminding me I'll remember to update by Cup points :DD And nopeee I don't have PP&P. But when I was doing the Ready articles, it took me a while, but I found the digital booklet itself online, so you may can try that :) Happy Eastaaaa! Candyo32 15:47, 24 April 2011 (UTC)

What do you think...

Of this review. Did I make a mistake by putting it on hold? Does it get stuck in quick fail? (removed) Novice7 (talk) 10:38, 24 April 2011 (UTC)

Oh, Tweety! I hated him :| Poor Sylvester :) And, I apologize for my rude comment about the new editor. I shouldn't have done that :( Thank you for clearing my doubt. I'll wait for the fixed. Novice7 (talk) 10:45, 24 April 2011 (UTC)
Errm... Did you forget this? Sylvester is soo cute (and so is his son :D). I hate Jerry of Tom and Jerry too. Crooked and filthy mouse :D Novice7 (talk) 10:52, 24 April 2011 (UTC)
Yeah, I watched a lot of cartoons when I was little. I love Sitcoms too! :D Wow, all those Creme Eggs must have made you "sweet" :P Just kidding :D Wow, thank you for the cute Japanese Good night. Anzac Day *salute* Novice7 (talk) 11:00, 24 April 2011 (UTC)
