LA Reid holds Memoirs listening party in NYC

IDJ Chairman L.A. Reid hosted a listening party for Mariah's new album Memoirs of An Imperfect Angel (in stores Sept. 15th) yesterday in New York and Essence magazine was there live-tweeting from the scene.

"Getting another early listen at Mariah Carey's new album with LA Reid. The Dream, Tricky and Mariah wrote everything on the album. Nice. First four Mariah songs sound like hits to us. Loving 'H.A.T.E.U.' Okay, Mariah's so long song 'Standing Ovation' sounds very Ne-Yoish. The Dream is feeling 'Ribbon'. Mariah does Journey's 'I Wanna Know What Li...' oops... 'I wanna know what love is' and it sounds amazing. Naz just corrected me, that's Foreigner's song but Mariah put her foot in it."

From the Twitter posts above, we get a confirmation of Mariah's cover of Foreigner's "I Want To Know What Love Is" which was first reported by the New York Post in April 2009, and a new song title "Standing Ovation".
