  Next chapter 10 : Te-Amo : Tribute to Rihanna Previous chapter

Max wakes up in the middle of the night. He hears some noise from the corridor. Max takes his gun and opens the door. "False alarm" he says to himself. Two young lovers were kissing and hugging each other in the corridor. Max closes the door, and goes back to bed. He tries to sleep, but he can't. He misses his loving and caring wife, agent 99, so much . . .

- - Song introduction - -

Te-Amo is a beautiful ballad from Rihanna's Rated-R album. Not available on remixed Rated-R album. Te-Amo was published as a single and there is also music video from Te-Amo. Banned in few countries, a nice love story between two woman, was too much to the censor-chips.

Word Te-Amo has a strong emotional background. The word is used from the persons you really love. It is not a phrase like English Dear and Darling. You can never even dream of changing your last name to Te-Amo.

-- Fans : Fan mails --

Usually the music people are very friendly and understanding towards their fans, and the things they talk about are related to their music.

No need to be afraid of them. The people, they sometimes slaughter and mock on their sites and tweets ( and who often gets fired after first or second angry tweet ) are usually gossip editors and other word-twisters / stupid conclusion makers. When you track the chain, at the end you usually find some published dirt and lies about their private life. Published in some media or on some media-like site.

The critics, who concentrate on the musical issues, belong to business They are not very common targets for nasty responses and mocks.

If you are lucky, you can get a personal answer from your favorite artist / band. Rihanna for example checked her tweets almost everyday. Then she published fan tweets or answers to few randomly selected fans. Fan mail tradition came to music at the time with Rock'n'Roll ( 1950 - 60 ).

-- Fans : Friends mail addition --

When a desperate gossip editor wants comments from a celebrity or power keeper, she or he tries to make the target annoyed and angry. So that she / he would open his / her mouth.

So. You can be quite sure, that not all of the people, popular people follows and re-tweets are really good ... best friends with them. A racist incident in Portuguese hotel ( during Loud tour 2011 ), which made Rihanna really angry and opened her mouth, is a very good example from this.

? If you are not familiar with Caribbean dialect, in this dialect words Nigga or Black are not insults, just common names for black people. Ancestors of black Caribbean population are slaves.

Max's wife, agent 99, wakes up too. She takes the phone to her hand. She keeps it in her hand for a while. After looking the time from the clock, she puts the phone back on the table. She dresses up, takes her purse, and goes out. Outdoors she walks to Max's convertible. When 99 opens the door, a flood of water comes out from the car. 99 falls down. She gets soaking wet. Yesterday's rain had filled the roofless car with water.

99 walks to the underground station. The station is closed during the night time. 99 continues to the railway station and goes to Control headquarters with a night train. At the headquarters it is very quiet. Only Boss' office has lights on. She goes to his office. Boss and his male assistant are looking at the electrical map on the back wall of the office. When 99 comes, they turn around, and Boss goes to his desk.

"Hello 99, take a seat." boss says.
"Hi" she says to boss.

"Where is Max ?" boss asks from 99.
"He is with you. In the Space Hotel" she answers.
"No. Can't you see that I am in here with you" boss replies.

99 is quiet for a moment.

"On your mission in Space Hotel" she corrects.
"No. He is not. He didn't show up in the morning. We wondered where he is." boss says.
"Ou. Called him yesterday. He said, he had a mission in Space Hotel . . . Wonder what has happened to him" 99 worries.

"Khrrm . . . " assistant says "You didn't see evening's news broadcasts. There was footage from a man, who got stuck with space lift. He flew all the way up to the Space Hotel . . . He did look like Max . . . What a way to start the fun, one news anchor commented the spot."

Agent 99 blushes for Max, others are a bit embarrassed. Deadly silence fills the office. After a while boss takes some papers from the table. "This would be fine." boss says quietly to himself, then he continues aloud "99 you can accompany Max in Space Hotel. Your next mission will be in there. According to the intelligence, Chaos is planning to capture the hotel, and ask ransoms for the quests . . . and, before you go, call Max and tell him, that he has also some work to do there."

"Okay boss, do I go there with space lift ?" 99 says.
"No. According to the intelligence, the take over is planned to take place today. Take SSS.

99 waits for her flight in the airport. She goes to the window and looks super sonics. Super sonic looks like Concorde SSTs, but they are stronger than ordinary airplanes. Agent 99 steps into glittering SSS. A nice stewardess guides her to her seat. 99 puts her handbag and small suitcase into locker. Then she sits down. The captain starts the engines, and asks passengers to fasten their seat belts. The stewardesses step into corridors, and show the usage of the oxygen masks.

Then the flight begins. A man in a neighboring line starts to stare at 99:s legs. 99 drags her skirt down.

Then she falls asleep. She dreams about her and Max having a romantic evening at Space Hotel. Dancing in the ball-room. Taking champagne on hotels terrace. Standing at the railing, and looking at the stars above. Stars shining like a string of pearls, holding gently each other . . .

. . . Having a romantic dinner with a violin player beside. Playing romantic songs, just for her and Max . . .

Moonlight Serenade is also known with the name Moon River. A big hit of Glenn Miller and his big orchestra. This is the traditionally played version from the song. The song has also been in the movies. Sometimes movies make songs popular, and sometimes they play popular songs.

- - Difficulties with web / the latest video releases - -

If you have difficulties in watching the latest music videos from famous artists / bands : there are long breaks and sometimes the video play stops completely. If this your problem, it does not automatically mean, that someone is making dirty tricks to you, trying to restrict your access to the site / video. Neither does it automatically mean, that your web-connection is too slow.

The reason for the problems can be in server computer. A computer from where you watch videos and photos. After popular videos are released, there is a huge rush. Underlying hardware / web-servers and network cannot serve all the people, who wants to watch and listen the latest release.

In You Tube Rihanna's You Da One video ( released 22nd December 2011 ) was almost completely inaccessible for 2 to 3 days after the release. According to You Tube stats and counters video is far behind Rihanna's most popular videos ( 100 million views in 2013 April ). On the other hand, there aren't many other videos which would have suffered from poor accessibility for days. Videos with announced app 10 million views per day never caused difficulties to You Tube servers.

Similar kind of thing took often place, when some picture set was released in Facebook. By Rihanna or some other famous artist / band.

After Talk-That-Talk was released ( at the end of November 2011 ), Rihanna's own web-site, RihannaNow.Com, was completely down for over a day.

-- Clouds are coming, help me --

Got very familiar with the problem ( as web-host ) after Boys released their Space Waves album and pre-versions from the Space Covers album. During the time AtYourService site was hosted by Jack himself. It took sometimes almost two hours before you got to the site.

Besides the brand new error messages and completely or only partially "hidden" pages, the new cloud computing system has raised the problems and the usage of the hw resources into a completely new levels.

? The Cloud Computing systems do not have AtYourService like synchronizer, which made sure, that all pieces of page are always loaded in correct order.

. . . Thunderbirds had found a landing place for their flying machines. And now the rescue team is slowly forwarding to the emergency zone. A night club in the center of the city. Knees shivering a little, from the excitement. Guessing the reason for the emergency call in their minds.

Rescue team comes to the outdoor of the club. Guerilla at the door takes a long look at the rescue team's costumes. Seems to think something. Then he smiles a little, and let the team go in.

Boys get in to the dusky club. The eldest brother, Scott goes to the counter and takes few glasses of Scottish whiskey. Others start to walk around the room, with sensors in their hands. They try to locate the woman, who made the emergency call. Scott supervises the team from the counter.

Boys circle around the room, asking questions from the visitors and the staff. After few more glasses Scott rushes away from the counter. Others look after him.
"Would it possible, that the woman in trouble would be in the men's room." Thunderbird 2 wonders.
"Well. Scott seemed to be very sure about the location." Thunderbird 3 says.
"Let's go and see what is in there." Thunderbird 4 suggests.

In the men's room Scott has bended himself over the toilet.
"Look ! There is something coming out from his mouth" youngest Thunderbird shouts, when boys enter the men's room.
"He is throwing up, young one !" Thunderbird 2 says to Thunderbird 4.
"He is puking." Thunderbird 3 adds wisely.
"Ou !" Thunderbird 4 exclaims.

After Scott has his things done, the rescue team returns to the ball room. Thunderbird 4 follows Scott's actions carefully. This time Scott takes a soft drink. Suddenly Thunderbird 2 comes :
"One visitor memorized the woman. He said, she left the club with two men. On their way, they talked about going to Space Hotel."

Scott puts the soft drink on table. "Well it is quite sure, that she is not here. We could go to pace Hotel." Scott says.
"I think, that it is better, that I'll come with you." Scott continues to Virgil, Thunderbird 2.

"If you are very ill, you could return to the sick bed in the base." Gordon, Thunderbird 4 suggests.
"No. I just got a little dizzy. I can come with you to the Space Hotel." Scott answers to Gordon, Thunderbird 4.
"To take some more whiskey" Alan, Thunderbird 3, says quietly to himself.

The rescue team leaves the night club, and walks to their flying machines.

When you are heavily intoxicated, everything happens very slowly. Your muscles, brains and everything in your body, switches into a slow motion mode.

A Summer Place is a popular movie theme. Far more popular than the movie itself.

-- Fans : Fan mail responses --

Rihanna was a very popular singer, most popular in You Tube, the second popular in Facebook and amongst 10 most popular in Twitter. ( Christmas 2011 )

The maximum number of tweets, a single person can read per day is only ten thousand. You cannot re-follow, and become friends with all your followers and fans.

Besides. You have to spend lots of time for making songs, albums and planning live performances to your fans. The things they really want from you.

? Hot love notes you sometimes saw on Rihanna's twitter were usually taken from the lyrics of her existing or forthcoming songs. And when this is the situation, your "mission" as a fan was to memorize or find out the name of the song from which the words are taken.

-- Fans : Always talking / tweeting to her relatives --

When you read Rihannas re-tweets in twitter, quite a many of her fans had taken her last name to their ids. So. It often looked like, that she was tweeting and talking to her flesh and blood. Although she wasn't.

Robyn chose friendly tweets, she published and answered on random basis.

Fans are much like family members to us, we must think about them very often.

Stewardess awakens 99. 99 is having so beautiful dreams, that she wanted to continue her dreaming. "Madam, you must wake up and go out. We must get the plane empty for the cleaners." Stewardess says to 99. "Nice and amusing things are waiting for you, on your Space Holiday. This is just a vehicle, nothing compared to the things, which are waiting for you." she continues.

99 takes her luggage and enters the hotel. She goes to receptionist and asks, where her husband is. Right after her question, there is a big blast in the hall.

"Someone is taking his holiday very lightly" clerk laughs. He points to a man, who has hit the ceiling. "Madame, be very careful, when you move here. The gravity is far more smaller than it is on Earth. Always remember to keep the other leg on the floor." the clerk advises 99.

99 turns her head and shouts "Max. Darling. There you are. Wait. I will get someone, who will detach you from wires and lamps." Max is too busy with the wires and lamps to answer. After watching Max for a while, 99 asks, " Darling, what are you doing there ?" Max looks down, and notices 99.

"Hello 99 . . . eh . . . what I am dong here, just checking the wiring of the lamps darling." Max shouts.
"But, you do want get down ?" 99 asks.
"Not in a hurry, but since you came, it would be nice to see and talk with you darling." Max answers.
"So, you want me to get someone, to get you down, from there." 99 asks confirmation from Max.
"Yes darling, it would be very nice, if you did so." Max replies hastily.

99 goes and start to search staff, who would help Maxwell down from the ceiling . . .

. . . when 99 comes back, with a staff member, they see Maxwell lying on the floor.

"Max darling, what has happened ?" 99 shouts, with a worry in her voice.
"Eh . . . darling . . . . " Max starts.
"I know." 99 breaks "You decided, to check the wires and lamps, from the floor level."
"What ever you say darling." Max responds politely. Whilst answering, he tries to rip wires away from his suit, and from around his body.

"Come on darling. Lets go to your suite" determined 99 says to Max. The couple leaves in a hurry. And also before Max gets free.

On their way Max tackles. He loses part of the right sleeve, and a small piece, from his trousers, to the wires.

You do know the husband and his beautiful wife, don't you. Long time ago the magical family lived in popular TV-series. Series are playing in the networks. The song you hear is the theme from the TV-series.

In last verse there is a small riddle for the younger listeners. What an earth could or would take place in the cartoon. During the last verse and it's clatches ?

-- Audio CD is not dead, 2011 - -

In record sales audio CD's are far from dead, they are still the biggest medias for the music. iTunes sales is second with app 30% share, and CD sales is app 50% from the sales.

Talking about the sales, the fans always wants their favorite artist to be the biggest and the best selling artist of all. As an example could mention the very last week of the year 2011. During the week Rihanna's fans said, that Talk-That-Talk rose from position 17th to 7th in Billboard 200, on the chart the album rose from position 14 to position 7.

- - Charts, how they are made ? - -

The charts are always evaluations from the sales. The shop keepers buy Cd's to their storages. No-one knows for sure how many albums are actually sold from shopkeepers' storages during one week. There are so many storages and shop keepers, that it is almost impossible to gather exact data from the sales.

The charts are usually based on the sales of the biggest local resellers ( and radio stations ). If some album is extremely popular in smaller record shops, they for example have a big window-ad / front page sale campaign, you cannot see the sales from the charts. In the past, when European gas stations started to sell C-cassettes for their customers, there were very many gas-station stars, which sold well, but were never seen on the charts.

The record companies and the organizations, which divides and pays the fees to the music makers, knows only the wholesales numbers from the albums and singles ( how many records shopkeepers have bought to their storages, and how many digital copies were sold during the past month ).

- - Copyrights of the photo - -

In the world of photos, album covers and cover pictures are one form of photographic art. In Europe there are few genres for different kind of photos. All photos which belong to the genre are look-a-likes. It is not possible for a European photographer to dominate the whole genre, and sue other photographers to court because their photos belongs to the genre "he owns". A thing like this is possible only in the promised land of the native borns ( United States ). In Europe you have to make an exact copy from the photo and it's subject, before you can be sued to court.

? In some US gossip media there was photo, which was said to be the origin for some Rihanna's video. Resemblances were limited to the subject of the photo. Rihanna was to get a lawsuit from the copyright violation, becuase of the similarities.
