Article: Mariah Carey's rare demo tape hits auction (112,367)
by jaker20 from US

You all have to watch the video straight from the guy. Webmaster you can edit the article, it's right her. [Webmaster: Why should I edit the article? I already posted a link to the video.]
It's even better. Very fascinating. It is literally like the guy saw the future that Mariah will explode. And that's exactly how it turned out, the public has not seen anything like her before.

Such a great song, my favorite from the album. I would love a video for it.

Nothing Is Impossible is melodically amazing, definitely something that will stand out in the Adult Contemporary arena today. People still love ballads. The only thing that I felt missed the mark is her vocal cords sounding a bit dry during the belting of the climax. I do know meds heavily dry out the voice so I should just be grateful she took the time to write such a beautiful song. The reverse of it though, is her lower register sounding hauntingly gorgeous and hitting the spot completely, perfect key choice, it truly is where the song is at emotionally.

Thanks Edward, but correction: Libra lamb is the one who said he wants to take a break, not me. He changed his name to "Lambi needs a dictionary" to fully troll, but it just further proves my point that he is fundamentally broken. I hope that this short break heals him.

I didn't realize your break would be so ephemeral. Welcome back. And you have to admit, "Lambi needs a dictionary" is funny as hell. But your lines about his growth being stunted in middle school and him being left obliterated by some gang on here had me crying. I'm still laughing.

You got your lambs mixed up. Dove is the one that said, "I'm not a writer." She said that right after you threw a bunch of synonyms at her, for the word bleak. Next time, make sure you're aiming at the right target before you pull the trigger.

Release the demo this Friday (112,361)

By doing that, Mariah can beat them from making profits out of her work. People and fans will not bother about that auction and will go straight online to listen to the demo.

I found this video as well about the same demo tape auction. I wonder if Mariah has the other copy and if she'll try to buy this and release it on her own terms.

Well said, Edward. I echo your sentiments. I've have stayed away from the current topics over the past week. I need some joy in my life. That's why I choose to focus on the music, the amazing Christmas albums MC has blessed us with. The first one is obviously my favorite. I thank TM every holiday season for encouraging MC to release a Christmas album, when it wasn't such a popular thing to do, especially for someone so new in her career. My ringtone is set to AIWFCIY, the tree is up, lights are on outside, and Tis the Season is burning in my house. "I don't want a lot for Christmas..." you know the rest.

I'm in a good mood and don't want to open the door to the kind of diatribe that would follow. We really don't need that on the board right now, things are already tough as it is. I'll say this though: some people here tend to take things way too personally, and honestly, it's not that serious.
This board has always been a little dysfunctional, and I think that's part of what keeps us coming back. If it weren't that way, it would be pretty damn boring. Sometimes we just need to drop the victim mentality and grow a thicker skin. For example, in the past two weeks, three of my messages haven't been posted, but you don't see me complaining to Eric or accusing him of favoritism. I later understood why he probably chose not to post them.
I may disagree with some of you from time to time, but I never take it personal. In fact, I think that mix of personalities is what keeps us all glued to this little corner of the internet. Still, it's true, sometimes you can sense bitterness or unhappiness in certain people's posts, almost like they're just looking for a reason to start a fight. Whatever those people are going through, I genuinely wish them well.

Just to be clear. Joachim responded to JLR, not you. JLR basically said "You're all non-professionals." And Joachim was like, "Hold my beer, here's my credentials." I don't know why you took JLR being disputed so personally? You weren't even the one Joachim responded to. The word "obliterate" literally had nothing to do with you.
"Lambi needs a dictionary" as your name is also hilarious. It fully confirms something may have happened that stunted your growth in middle school.
However "ganged up" on you felt here, (or in real life) or what ever other lambs said that left you feeling "obliterated", you can let go now. Literally no one is thinking about it. Just enjoy the topics.

Nothing is Impossible (112,356)
by Dove from United States

|

I'm listening to NII right now since a lot of people say it should have been a single. I do really like it but the start doesn't immediately capture my attention. That's why I don't think it would have been the best option for radio or playlists. If it popped up on a playlist for me, and I wasn't already a Mariah fan, I would skip to the next song. I like it for a movie because you're kind of forced to listen to the whole thing that way, or at least a longer part of it.

Last Christmas also re-enteres the Hot 100, but at #43. Brenda is nowhere on the chart. So it looks like "LC" is the song that will be competing with Mariah for the #1 spot, at least for a week. Once Mariah breaks and sets the new record, I wouldn't mind them having a week at #1. They deserve it.

HFIA review (112,327)
by Xavier mariohmix from Spain

By vocal acrobatics I meant the belting. On Caution it was more consistent and regular in the usual last section of the songs (if I remember well, it's been so long since I listened to that album). However, "Me. I am Mariah..." was the last time we had real huge belting (the one we have always been used to) like on "Supernatural" or "Meteorite".
On the other hand, the whistle register is always there and used very wisely aesthetically, as usual. And you're so right to say that "her vocals remain steady and buttery throughout the album", and that's what makes it consistent. Vocally, I still love her voice just because she's capable of doing so many things with it and creating so much beauty sonically with plenty of nuances. For me that's outstanding.
One thing I didn't mention in my review: the lyrics. She's a real master. She knows we pay real attention to that, and, apart from being something natural in her, she puts a lot of effort into it. "Play That Song" feels like a film when you listen to it and close your eyes in order to imagine the scenes.
When somebody commented on this album being possibly her last one, I felt like I was going to cry, but it felt right because of what it is like. Still I hope it won't.

Hate to say it but they probably are. The roll out was heavily banked on, probably the best publicity of all her albums. (Butterfly and TEOM didn't even get her a VMA.) She toured the dang world and let everyone know about it. She quite literally couldn't do anything more. But still by PTS, the hype pretty much died out.
Maybe if someone picks up NII for a movie, it might have a resurgence, I doubt it though.
But to completely fair, there isn't one ground breaking single. I'm still not going to count Mariah out. She shocked me with With You and A No No, I just know melodies come to her way too naturally, and it only takes one song that'll break through the cracks to bring her back on top again.

Mom's death (112,343)
by Lambi from USA
| |
|
|
I will forever find the timing of their death announcement bizarre. They died the weekend of August 24-25. And Mariah publicly announced it August 26, shortly after. That always felt so anti-Mariah. That's not something she would've loved to be widespread the very next day, or I would've expected she at least insisted (or had the power) to keep it private and allow herself actual time to grieve. It felt someone leaked the information and then she just had no choice but give a statement to People magazine, because that was way too fast for such a sensitive matter.

Mom's death (112,326)
by ADAM from USA
| |
|
|
I was thinking the cause of her death was never public, which makes me believe perhaps she passed from Alzheimer's disease and Mariah is not ready to make that connection public. I think whatever she's fighting these last several years is not bi-polar related. Her memory and gross motor skills are markedly different and suspect. That's my two cents. I think Here For It All is the farewell album we suspected she'd make and she's done a great job in my opinion - a beautiful body of work she can leave the work and notes for her children when she passes.
