Re: Macau / Bill, Adele? (57,565) (57,566) by Travon..SweetSweetFantasy from USA I made A and B honor roll every year in [...] school and high school. I received a "A-" in English and an "A+" in writing composition. I also received a standard "A" in reading. Scored an average of 96% on all my essays. With that being said, I am well educated and I fully understand what sarcasm means. There is absolutely no way to determine what is sarcasm on an online post unless it is implied as such. Sarcasm is not the same as truth. The only way sarcasm could be perceived is if the writer implies their feelings into context or displays an indirect emotion related to what is being discussed. Bill's context was not implying sarcasm because he made a direct statement. This statement was then followed by a indirect question that carried zero meaning to what was being discussed. It might be sarcasm to you but everyone perceives things differently. That doesn't take away the meaning as to what I was saying. I love Adele and Mariah Carey. We need to respect this Mariah Carey post. That does not mean only talking about Adele either. So save the "I don't know sarcasm for someone else". I have a life and I am too educated to waste my time dealing with [censored] or [censored] individuals. I don't know why I even waste my time on this board with some of you. Anyway, I am going back to UKMIX. I am moving on. I fully expect some of you to respond and join your clicks/favored writers here but I won't respond back because it's a waste of my time. I am ending this conversation on my terms. Everyone have a wonderful day. (Thursday 29 October 2015; 22:06)

Re: Macau / Bill, Adele? (57,562) (57,565) by Deedre aka MiTodoChop @HBF from Canada Bill was using sarcasm lol. (Thursday 29 October 2015; 20:38)

Re: Macau / Bill, Adele? (57,555) (57,564) by Travon..SweetSweetFantasy from USA Thanks Bill. (Thursday 29 October 2015; 19:30)

Re: Macau / Bill, Adele? (57,559) (57,563) by Stacey from USA Yep, so many take everything so literally here. It's quite funny to read. (Thursday 29 October 2015; 18:46)

Re: Macau / Bill, Adele? (57,559) (57,562) by Bill from the UK Luke, tell me about it haha. Can't quite believe what I'm reading lol. (Thursday 29 October 2015; 18:12)

Re: Adele and Macau (57,553) (57,561) by Warren from Trinidad & Tobago Took the words right out of my mouth. I shouldn't be so nervous when she is on American TV (no offense to anywhere else) where it matters. MC needs another viral moment like the AIWFCIY on Jimmy Fallon this year. (Thursday 29 October 2015; 17:24)

Re: Macau / Bill, Adele? (57,549) (57,560) by Bino from Bill was only being sarcastic. (Thursday 29 October 2015; 17:22)

Re: Macau / Bill, Adele? (57,555) (57,559) by Luke from United Kingdom Bill, the art of sarcasm can only be understood by a select few that are highly trained in the specialization. (Thursday 29 October 2015; 16:55)

Re: Macau / Bill, Adele? (57,555) (57,557) by Giovanni from USA Bill shut up. No one cares about Adele. She isn't half the singer Mariah is. Go listen to "Loverboy" somewhere in the corner. Adele's "Hello" is boring to me. Same formula from her last album. Nothing special as far as Mariah goes. She sounded very good. (Thursday 29 October 2015; 16:19)

Adele - Can't Let Go (57,556) by Lee TS from USA Since we're kind of still on the Adele topic. I totally thought it was a reaching moment when lambs were starting the rumor mill of Adele possibly covering Can't Let Go on her album. But I just finished listening to The Lambily Meeting (guys check it out, all Mariah and all laughs) and they pointed out a cryptic tweet Mariah did a few weeks back. First of all, I think Mariah tweets and grams the most random things ever so I'm just like whatever most of the time. So anyway, Mariah tweeted this a couple of weeks ago, "Now playing Can't Let Go pon de studio circa 2015" and the way Dan explained it totally got me hopping on the bandwagon with Adele doing a cover. It probably isn't a cover but it was a funny moment. Lambs, go listen to the podcast. It's certainly part of my Mariah fix along with MCA. (Thursday 29 October 2015; 15:17)

Re: Macau / Bill, Adele? (57,549) (57,555) by Bill from the UK Wow. I don't even know what to say to your response. So I won't say anything. Good luck in your new job. (Thursday 29 October 2015; 14:31)

Re: Ariana for MAC (57,551) (57,554) by darrian liu from taiwan I have a feeling that Ariana's album will not hit #1. Her popularity has declined steeply after the whole donut/I hate America issue. I don't wanna see her go down tho, after all she's quite talented. I wanna see her artistry bloom and see her detach from Mariah's shadow. Her team shouldn't have tagged Ariana along Mariah's MAC deal. Mariah's gonna outshine her so much. (Thursday 29 October 2015; 12:02)

Adele and Macau (57,553) by Randy from USA I have to admit, when I first heard Hello, I was instantly smitten and I do think she makes all the right moves. The lyric, vocal and video are perfection. But a lot of you wondered why MC can't do the same. She can do stripped down, lyric driven music if she wants to. She just doesn't enjoy being in that box. She said herself she's not one dimensional. Adele is one dimensional. However Adele sells records so that is what people like. MC makes music for herself because she used to make it for the public and was unhappy. MC knows what will sell but that no longer matters to her. As long as we get one stripped, lyric driven, introspective song like Languishing, Cry or Camouflage per album, I'm good. About the live Macau performances. Everyone knows how critical I have been of MC's "live" performances. She sounded very decent and it infuriates me she can't do this on American television or at award shows when it counts. She folds like a card table. (Thursday 29 October 2015; 11:53)

Ticket-sales of Christmas show (57,552) by Philipp from Switzerland Has anybody heard something about how the ticket sales of Mariah's Christmas show are going? I checked ticketmaster.com and it says that no tickets are available. So that could mean that they're all sold out and that she's doing an additional show on the 19th (I'm praying for that, because I arrive in New York on the 19th ). (Thursday 29 October 2015; 8:28)

Ariana for MAC (57,551) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Such a desperate move. I don't get why her team continues to get her career in Mariah's way. It is pretty clear that they did this because it would draw comparisons since they are both going to be highlights for the 2016 MAC calendar of collections. Ariana's new album was not getting as much press as Selena and Demi and Justin, so she goes back to her original move of riding on Mariah's coat tail. Her team needs to stop with the crap. (Thursday 29 October 2015; 5:26)

MC in China (57,550) by Deedre aka MiTodoChop @HBF from Canada I really enjoyed her performances, particularly the intro to Emotions, WBT and ABMB. Humans are bot machines, and so to debate live performances as if that is the case, has never made sense to me. No disrespect intended toward anyone. (Thursday 29 October 2015; 3:49)

Re: Macau / Bill, Adele? (57,543) (57,549) by Travon..SweetSweetFantasy from USA Exclusively talking about Adele on another fan forum not about Adele? What? I am confused? How about a big fat no. I am sorry. We can definitely talk about both of them, seeing how this is a Mariah Carey post. Just because you live in the U.K. and Adele is dominating WW, this is still a Mariah Carey post. Sorry for my bluntness. Mariah is finally grabbing great attention from all sides and you bring up an Adele deflect at the wrong time. [...] This should not be a problem. It's courtesy to all fans and honestly common sense when trying to be respectful to others. All I am saying is, there is a time and place for comments like that. Completely unnecessary. Adele and a Mariah Carey mix of conversation, will do just fine. I welcome that. I love both Mariah Carey and Adele. Hello is an amazing song and I just downloaded it on my phone from Google Play. I also love Mariah Carey's commitment to expanding her brand lately. Going back now to read and study for my CDL test at my new job. Love you lamb. (Thursday 29 October 2015; 3:49)

Macau (57,548) by Darryle from USA Wow. I am beyond impressed with Mariah's performance in Macau. I expected this to be one of those performances where she just kinda half asses it to get it over with. Boy was I wrong. Mariah sounded amazing. Her voice was lighter, clearer, and there was no sign of strain whatsoever. I hope she's recording with this voice. (Thursday 29 October 2015; 3:05)

Adele (57,547) by Lee TS from USA Yes everything she says and does is awesome, she slays left and right. Adele, why are you so perfect? (Thursday 29 October 2015; 2:32)

Re: MAC (57,542) (57,546) by Joaquín from Chile Yes. I'm so very surprised by this news, because Ariana and Mariah will be a woman of the year for MAC. The battle begins. Lol PD, I'm new here and my English is horrible, please forgive me. (Wednesday 28 October 2015; 23:40)

MC in Macau (57,545) by Marissa from USA Mariah's performance in Macau snatched me bald. Period. Her voice sounded robust, well-rested and I heard no straining. Whatever she's doing now, it's working. I'm so proud. (Wednesday 28 October 2015; 22:51)

Re: Macau (57,543) (57,544) by Norman from USA Cheeky. (Wednesday 28 October 2015; 22:35)

Macau (57,543) by Bill from the UK Macau this, Macau that. Can we please get back on topic and continue talking about Adele? (Wednesday 28 October 2015; 22:21)

MAC (57,542) by Lara from Middle East I've just read an article where they're announcing that Ariana Grande is launching a new lipstick for them. For real? (Wednesday 28 October 2015; 22:03)

Macau (57,541) by John john from UK Wow just wow. She sounds amazing. I think she sounded the best I've heard in years and I've seen her twice in Las Vegas this year. (Wednesday 28 October 2015; 18:32)
