About Luis from Spain: Lamb since May 2002. 13 years later, I still love her as the first day.

Re: (83,137) (83,140) by Luis from Spain
Andrew, Mariah is not Celine. If you consider MC a farce you might need to think why you are registered in a MC forum. They are very different artists and while it is obvious that her voice has changed maybe it is her best at this point. What do you want her to do then? She has been through rough suffering for quite a long time, so give her a break.

(83,135) by Luis from Spain
Hey you all. It's been a long time since my last post. First off, I got tickets for Madrid's concert and I'm extremely excited since it's my first time attending one of her gigs. 16 years as a lamb and I cannot wait until showtime.
I have been watching videos from the new residency and I see her attitude on stage has changed a lot. She seems way more confident which may be due to her healthy physicial appearance but also because she got rid of toxic people. Stella had no experience at all as a manager and, worse, no manners. I still cannot believe such mediocre woman managed Mariah. But RocNation has bad reputation with some artists too (Rita Ora, Kylie, for instance); therefore, I wish she has found the ultimate management which can help her to reach again the mainstream success she deserves.
In regards to the upcoming album, I highly doubt it will be released this year. She has too many shows ahead and all of them unrelated to the new project. My guess is that we have to look forward to Spring 2019 which would be much better as she would need an A-list PR campaign.

Merry Christmas deluxe edition LP (56,615) by Luis from Spain
Apparently, Sony is re-releasing Merry Christmas this year. Having retrieved Amazon's link, I am quite surprised that it's called a "deluxe" edition when it's just another pressing of the LP. It isn't going to be re-released on CD. If they re-release Merry Christmas with extra stuff and delete the current standard CD version, they may gain more sales as Mariah will premiere her Christmas movie and performing at Beacon Theater again.

Lee TS (54,752) by Luis from Spain
They are divorced since March. Mariah confirmed so in an interview last May and if you check Nick's IMDB it says that their marriage ended on March 19th. I feel happy for her. The new man is her age, good-looking and richer than her. Good move, Mariah.

Paris (54,293) by Luis from Spain
Will she be doing promo in France? It's been a long time since the last European promo tour.

MC re-release (53,951) by Luis from Spain
I don't understand the hate towards a potential MC re-release. It's her only album which consistently sells year after year, and remember that Mariah wanted to re-release MCIIYou in 2012 on the heels of the When Christmas Comes music video. Apparently, inedit material it's on the way and I guess that a new single will come out by Christmas. Clearly Sony wants to sell her back catalogue not just because it's worthy but also because she's not ready to release another album. I'm sure she won't put out any new record until late 2016. They need time to record and produce a huge comeback album.

After July (53,739) by Luis from Spain
The slot between July and February is considerably long. What do you think she will be doing during her break? It's confirmed that she will return to the Beacon Theater in December and the Christmas film project seems to be in progress. Another album maybe?

Kelly & Michael (53,715) by Luis from Spain
I have watched the perfomance like three times already and I truly think her voice was on point. But I find the whole perfomance a bit hilarous haha. First, her dress showed part of her breast in a perfomance held in Disneyland. Second, there was just one piano on stage when many other instruments were playing and lastly one of the choir members looked at Mariah with poker face the first time she belted, like saying "It's my turn." Lol.

Divorce (53,557) by Luis from Spain
Just read a piece of news which stated that the actual divorce took place in April, so they are officially divorced. And Nick's IMDB page mentions that the marriage ended two months ago. I'm happy for them. Time to move forward. I have to get my copy of the album. Amazon Spain works awfully. I preordered my copy on May 1 but apparently I have to wait one more week. Geez.

Weird strategy if there's one (53,243) by Luis from Spain
Assuming that Infinity was released like two weeks ago and has already plummeted, do you think that it has any opportunity to creep on Billboard? The airplay has been low-key up to now but at least she's perfoming at the BMA plus Kimmel next week. Sales have been moderate, but I guess that many fans will be waiting for the album to buy Infinity. I mean, the only actual reason to buy this compilation is because of her new song. Maybe Sony is focusing on her album rather than Infinity. It's clear that this "era" (if it can be named as such) is centered on making money from Vegas, as if her album is just another promotional tool to gain media atraction and selling tickets. Also, why is the vinyl planned for late August? Very strange. Despite I buy all her cds, I recognize that I will be buying 1s To Infinity just to support her.

Touch My Body in Mail interview (53,160) by Luis from Spain
It sounds a bit strange, doesn't it? I think she was referring to I Stay In Love which was released in late 2008.

Vegas shows usually last 90 minutes while gamers take a break.

Fake back cover (51,992) by Luis from Spain
The back cover is fake since it does not include copyright information of IDJ. Island will always own Mariah's albums released on their lables and their logo should be posted at the back.

Madonna vs Mariah, the eternal fan feud (50,900) by Luis from Spain
Madonna is not desperate. Go to YouTube and watch recent interviews so you can admire her wisdom. Her arguments on ageism and pop music are really on fleek. Madonna is very intelligent and knows how to answer a question. Mariah, no shade, is dull in that sense. While Madonna looks nervous in interviews many times, Mariah talks about the same regularly (any interview between 2008 and 2013 are about the same thing: Nick, dembabies, global superstar, and so forth). Is Madonna desperate? Not at all. She has released a "deep" album, her best in many many years (12) and she hadn't promoted a record like this time since COAD. Even if sales are lower for whatever reason, if Madonna cannot sell albums, who can? Taylor, Sam Smith, Gaga, all those recent artists won't never be as huge as Madonna and Mariah. Also, no shade again, but I am pretty sure that the actual reason why Mariah is less known internationally is because she hadn't toured properly during her Sony days. She was huge at the time, but her artistry was limited to her voice and nowadays the audience requests more than a rough show with one screen. Look at Celine: she toured extensively in 1995-1996 and she is able to sell out stadiums while doing very visual shows.

TheVoice (50,761) by Luis from Spain
Have I just read that MIAM sold well? Sorry, but that's not true. It was a flop everywhere. Both Mariah and Def Jam let it die because they predicted it would flop so badly. Good album, though. Anything else is fiction.

Liz (50,365) by Luis from Spain
Yes, she does that plenty of times. Watch the "60-minutes" Australian 2003 interview and it is mentioned that it took place at 2:00 am or something.

Dembabies book (50,232) by Luis from Spain
I work at a publishing house in Spain and we wanted to buy translation rights for the book since in principle Mariah was supposed to be involved in the project. Unfortunately, there was no agreement since our offer coincided with their separation announcement and Nick is completely unknown here. Yes, Scholastic will publish more books but without Mariah. She has nothing to do with this and our feeling is that she was not interested at all.
(Tuesday 17 February 2015; 15:23)
Dembabies (50,191) by Luis from Spain
True, they have not been exposed since... the tour? Maybe the reason is that their divorce is now real (Nick filed for divorce two months ago) so they won't be able to expose them until the process is finished.

Paul, the One's re-release is official (50,190) by Luis from Spain
The release was announced in the Vegas press release, posted on her website.

#1's CD in May? (50,146) by Luis from Spain
I have read some messages hinting at the possibility that the newly-updated One's may be released in May to coincide with her opening night. Is this true? As far as I'm concerned, she just confirmed the compilation on Ellen and through a press release but I took for granted that November would be the release month. Thoughts?

Hi. It's available on Amazon Spain.

Make-up and Mariah (50,056) by Luis from Spain
Am I the only one who thinks she uses far too much make-up? In the TEOM era she looked fresh and natural but now she paints herself and looks older. Okay, yes, TEOM was 10 years ago but we have seen no-make-up pics of her and she looks stunning. She has a really good skin.

October 2013 (49,449) by Luis from Spain
If I'm not wrong, she did not do any gigs that month as she was still recovering from the injury. She was in the studio, that is, at home.
(Thursday 29 January 2015; 1:55)
Mimi L (49,255) by Luis from Spain
Yes, it is included in the press release posted on her website.

GG (49,246) by Luis from Spain
If they are legally separated, he cannot request any money from August 2014 on.
