About Lexingz from Estonia: Mariah fan since 1998.

Re: Caution next singles (86,584) (86,591) by Lexingz from Estonia
The song is pleasant to the ear, I must say.

Re: The promo tour (WWHL, Fallon, GMA) (86,362) (86,372) by Lexingz from Estonia
Yeah I agree, irregardless, she has been talking about writing her own songs since the beginning and only now seems to be recognized for it. If you asked someone who is not a fan, just knows of her existence, I am sure they would not now. I love that she at one point said that if she would be one of those artists who played an instrument, everybody would instantly believe she writes her own material.

Re: A No No feat. Cardi B and Li'l Kim (86,286) (86,292) by Lexingz from Estonia
Agreed. Kim is of course the obvious choice but Cardi would be a great match for Mariah's whole vibe as well.

Caution era style/fashion (86,262) by Lexingz from Estonia
I am happy that Mariah has been wearing good outfits for the promotion of Caution. My favorites were the leather jacket on TRL, her black interview dress on Fallon and her black pants on GMA. My least favorite was the pink dress she wore for singing The Distance. She looked good in it, just not exactly my taste. Any other opinions on her latest fashions?

Re: TY Dolla lipping Fallon (86,165) (86,190) by Lexingz from Estonia
Yeah I noticed when he put down the mic when his voice was still going as well. But rappers perform with backing tracks all the time (nobody cares about their ability to reproduce "quality" of their vocals like that), so I don't think it was a big deal.

Bipolar and vocal issues (85,650) by Lexingz from Estonia
Vocal issues can come from anything. Bad health, no sleep, drinking, emotional exhaustion, broken heart, fear, all kinds of bad emotions, stage fright, hormonal issues are a biggie (I have heard of her having thyroid problems which can ruin your voice bigtime), bad vocal technique, overusing your voice. Yes you can put bipolar on the list.
I think her voice has been affected by everything in her life - even one of those things on the list can change your voice completely. Mariah's life has been a mess since she was born. It's a miracle she is as successful as she is, and also her longevity is incredible. Let's just give it a rest and let her deal with it.

That being said, I am sticking with my opinion that she has been sounding the best she has in a long time in Asia, and that makes me very happy. And if that annoys anyone, I am sorry (not).

Re: Mariah's voice returning (85,645) (85,649) by Lexingz from Estonia
In one video she was pitched. To be honest, her singing was always somewhat strained from the beginning. it's just that now it has taken it's toll on the instrument. I had not listened to her CDs for a year some time ago and I popped in some early nineties recordings and my throat closed up because of the strain in her voice.

Re: A No No No (85,584) (85,590) by Lexingz from Estonia
Randy what is wrong with Jessica Rabbit gowns? She looks great. To me her outfits have been pretty much perfect on the Asian tour. Not too revealing and still sexy and classy. And sparkly.

Mariah's voice returning (85,586) by Lexingz from Estonia
I have been watching recordings of Mariah's last 3 shows, including the one in Singapore. Her voice is doing things it hasn't done in a long time. And not lipping either. What's up? For proof listen to "Love takes time" from Singapore (or the couple last renditions of My All)
P.S. My famous clairvoyance is at work again. I was thinking hard about "Love Takes Time" yesterday. And poof she sang it in Singapore on the third.

Re: A No No and X-Girlfriend (85,524) (85,528) by Lexingz from Estonia
This song is giving me definite Rainbow era vibes for sure.

Re: A No No lyrics Ginger (85,518) by Lexingz from Estonia
Ginger is a glamorous woman from showbiz who always wants to seduce the men on the island for different purposes and being cunning to get what she wants. Watch a video of Ginger Grant on YouTube you'll get it.

Re: Andrew`s post, Ellen imitating Mariah (85,479) by Lexingz from Estonia
Well what do you know, I was just saying I don't like Ellen and I had not even seen her "Mariah costume" when I wrote it. Intuition or clairvoyance? I don't like the costume that much but it doesn't even bother me because she obviously looks nowhere near as good as Mariah so... whatever. But yeah, I wouldn't say this impersonation fully lacks a mean streak. Oh well.

Re: going on Wendy (85,463) (85,467) by Lexingz from Estonia
Susana, I didn't like that way she behaved towards Naomi Osaka, "trying to set her up with her crush" etc. Naomi said it out loud numerous times that she is uncomfortable with that. And just some other gut feelings I don't need to share. It's just that I used to really like her but for some unexplicable reason no longer do.
(Wednesday 31 October 2018; 15:10)
Re: going on Wendy (85,457) (85,461) by Lexingz from Estonia
I don't think she should go on Wendy. I don't like the show (I no longer watch it) and she has been humiliated and nitpicked on that show so many times. I see no reason for her to go there, ever.

She should stick to Kimmel, Fallon etc. Friendly hosts who don't bully her. I am glad she has not gone on Ellen either. I just have a bad feeling about Ellen recently and I'm kind of over her.

Haha same.

Caution album cover (84,964) by Lexingz from Estonia
I am very happy with the Caution album cover. Well done.

Re: Question (84,799) (84,822) by Lexingz from Estonia
Mariah was having her period. It is very well known among classical female singers to schedule important performances around it if possible. I used to study classical singing and my teacher also told me this. It can change your voice to be weaker, hoarser and less easily controlled. It does not always happen to a great degree and people and their bodies are all different, but it is a real thing.

Re: With You (84,766) (84,767) by Lexingz from Estonia
B the first time I did her hand movements was today. And I've never sung into a brush or a shampoo bottle or anything like that. Guess I'm a freak.

With You video is artsy perfection (84,737) by Lexingz from Estonia
The video is viewable on so many artistic and emotional levels and has so many self aware references that I'm completely shook. I mean wow. Also, the shoe gods have answered my prayers. Mariah, this is art, I'm crying.

I love this board (84,697) by Lexingz from Estonia
I have read all the different opinions about negative and positive posts and criticism and allowing this or that this board. I feel like we need to chill and let the moderator do his/her job. (Which one is it? Honest question.) I personally feel that the negative commentators take the brunt of the emotional work that the "nice" fans refuse to do. I choose to be moderately positive in my comments but I can also be honest with myself and admit that I agree with most of the negative comments to some extent. Bottom line is, I would hate for this board to become all "slay kween" and "skinny legend did it again" (you all know what I mean). This is why in my opinion we should allow the black sheep to say what they need to say.

When I get tired of the bickering I just leave. But I always know that I can come back here to discuss the singer I will probably love most in my lifetime, with people who actually care and know what they are talking about. And it might as well be that this is one of the few places where Mariah can hear the unfiltered, honest opinions of some of her most dedicated fans who say here what they would never say to her face.

Re: AMAs (84,646) (84,648) by Lexingz from Estonia
I watched it in high def now and if you count everything in, about 20% of the lead vocal I heard with my ears was live. She was singing over a backing track and doing some relaxed adlibs in the lower register which sounded good. All the belting notes, it seems, were lipped.
(Wednesday 10 October 2018; 12:35)
My positive spin on the AMAs experience (84,637) by Lexingz from Estonia
The choreography was well put together, artistic and sweet, touching and sexy (I mean it). I think her team has created a great platform and safety net for Mariah to actually start singing live at awards shows again since her visuals and style are on point now. Mariah looked slim and pretty. Her red carpet dress was classy perfection.

Today's performance (84,621) by Lexingz from Estonia
I hope Mariah has fun and enjoys performing. Because when she's happy, it shows. I like the song and I'm very much looking forward to seeing what she does with it.

Re: Promo plan, no lyric video (84,588) (84,593) by Lexingz from Estonia
I have no idea why they did not do lyric videos for the songs. All artists do them nowadays and this is how you get tons of views. I teach teenagers and this is basically what they watch on YouTube - lyric videos. I couldn't even get to the official With You thing on Mariah's YouTube channel where I live, I had to watch a lyric video done by someone random. All my views went to that other place.
