About Jamie from UK:

Mariah vs MC (102,399) by Jamie from UK Ok as a 90's fan of Mariah and a continued fan to this day, I've always struggled with Mariah and MC. Whilst I like them both I'm more swayed towards Mariah. I've always wondered what she thinks, as Mariah did she always want to break away and be MC, or now does she long to be Mariah again? I say this because she always says how controlled she was, yet now every opportunity she gets she shows pics etc of her earlier career. Watching her earlier videos she is so natural and composed something I don't think can be forced or mimicked. So I often wonder who is the the real Mariah/MC? Don't get me wrong I love both, but I often wonder what happened that made the drastic change, I don't believe it was all Tommy as he could have dressed her in all he liked, but like I said you can't mimic those natural early performances. I get people change, I've changed myself, but not so drastically like she has. I always wonder who the happiest one was. To me she looks more happy in the early Mariah days when she was more wholesome, but would love to hear your spin on things. This all came from watching ATYNAF from Proctors Theatre, which to me is one of her best performances. I'm not looking to be judgmental I'm honestly just looking for peoples spin on things as it genuinely interests me. (Sunday 26 March 2023; 01:52)

#Beautiful (102,368) by Jamie from UK I hate to say it but I was very disappointed when I heard #Beautiful for the first time. It's still not one of my favourites tbh. (Tuesday 21 March 2023; 21:36) this is a reply to message 102,361

#Beautiful (102,361) by Rashidi Rahim Rick from Malaysia In a parallel universe, this song is Mariah's 19th #1 and All I Want For Christmas Is You is the 20th. There I said it. (Monday 20 March 2023; 13:01)

Someday AMA 1991 (102,362) by Jamie from UK Perfectly put. (Monday 20 March 2023; 17:23) this is a reply to message 102,357

Someday AMA 1991 (102,357) by MusicfanJ from Germany "Confidence and charisma then." So true. Everything you said, I see it the same way. Mariah was unstoppable then. The whole 90ies. Every time I watch a clip from that time, I still can't believe. That talent, the look, the voice and yes her charisma. (It could have melt an iceberg.) I can't watch the "I don't" video, I've watched maybe seven times. But I watch all clips from the 90ies over and over again. It's magic. Mariah's shyness was the sweetest thing. Just adorable. A sweetheart everyone loved. With a voice that goes straight to your heart and stays there forever. (Sunday 19 March 2023; 17:59)

Someday AMA 1991 (102,356) by Jamie from UK Just watched Mariah Someday live at the AMA's in 91 on [YouTube]. My next suggested video was I Don't, how did [YouTube] come up with that. It was actually quite scary to see the change. Mariah always said how shy she was back then, but looking back she actually had more confidence and charisma then. Maybe because she had the voice at her disposal. But it's easy to see why she became America's sweetheart back then, she truly was amazing. (Sunday 19 March 2023; 04:39)

Brenda K Starr (102,297) by Jamie from UK I just watched a virtual interview with Brenda K Starr from 2021, it was great to see her be so lovely and complementary about Mariah. It was nice to see how much she does actually care about Mariah although they have fallen out at times. She has nothing but praise for Mariah and wishes her well in all she does. I think it must be hard when you have been that close to someone and they are propelled into super stardom, as the artist doesn't always have control over their life. (Monday 6 March 2023; 21:06)

Hopelessly Devoted To You (102,233) by Jamie from UK Just seen the duet with Mariah and Olivia will be available on download for the first time from May 5th as part of a complication album by Olivia. (Friday 17 February 2023; 13:30)

Live at Pearl (102,231) by Jamie from UK I have it on MP3 but only 10 tracks. (Friday 17 February 2023; 01:10) this is a reply to message 102,222

Live at Pearl (102,222) by Robert-Anthony from United States I just found my CD copy of MC's September 11, 2009 concert at Pearl in Las Vegas. I recorded it from a download link on the old Mariah Daily website. Her vocals are phenomenal. Does anyone else have it on Mp3 or CD? 18 songs were sung on the first night out of 4 nights for the residency. (Tuesday 14 February 2023; 02:42)

It's A Wrap EP (102,195) by Jamie from UK I just saw that an EP for It's a Wrap will be released tomorrow. 1. Album Version 2. Sped Up Version 3. Remix feat. Mary 4. Edit (Thursday 9 February 2023; 22:52)

If you could... (102,145) by Jamie from UK If you could have one extra album squeezed in over the years where would you want it? I think I’d have liked another album squeezed in before Daydream. Music box has always been my favourite and I think with those vocals and adult contemporary/pop style I would have liked another album of similar style. (Saturday 28 January 2023; 18:38)

Thank you for 25 years (101,998) by Jamie from UK Yes congratulations. Thanks for all you do. (Monday 2 January 2023; 10:16) this is a reply to message 101,995

Thank you for 25 years (101,995) by Bill from the UK Wow, 25 years of this website. Thank you for everything. The discography, the news, the message board. I can only imagine the time and money that goes into keeping this fansite running. It is the best one, thanks so much for everything over all these years Eric and a Happy New Year to you and all the visitors to the site. Love you all. (Sunday 1 January 2023; 01:47)

The cringe of it all (101,954) by Jamie from UK I don't think we will every truly know truth behind all this, but I'd take a Mariah and Walter collaboration any day. Oh and 1993/1994 Mariah too. That's my favourite era of hers. (Saturday 24 December 2022; 20:11) this is a reply to message 101,947

The cringe of it all (101,947) by Norman from USA Walter A seems to be in desperate need of a spotlight on his career. Why does the man insist on being a massive tool when it comes to AIWFC? He's credited and receives half the royalties every year. Get your degree and go write another hit if you're so pressed. Geez. Laugh your way to the bank and give it a rest already. It's giving bitter, girl. And who's this Chan lady still going on about the QOC shizz? Wasn't the case thrown out or something? People will remember Mariah losing the fight for the TM before they'll ever remember her. And that's no shade to her career - she obviously has one. Maybe someday someone will know her outside of being referenced to Mariah. We love everybody. Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas to all who celebrate it. May you have the good fortune to spend it with your loved ones. (Saturday 24 December 2022; 07:58)

Top posters (101,923) by Jamie from UK Happy holidays to everyone. Just arrived in Atlanta for my final trip before Christmas. Back in UK on 23rd let the festivities begin. (Tuesday 20 December 2022; 21:20) this is a reply to message 101,918

Top posters (101,918) by Randy from USA I need to get a life. I don't know why I've been posting so much this year, probably because I've been very emotional. Imagine that, a MC fan being emotional? Speaking of which, jaker20 that was a beautiful message. Many have said it here before, we are a dysfunctional family. We argue but I want nothing but the best for MC and all of you guys Eric Bill Stacey Andrew Enwar Robert Anthony and Terna. Happy holidays. Oh and don't forget MC comes on CBS tonight.

LadBaby? (101,922) by Jamie from UK It's just British humour and yes it's odd lol. (Tuesday 20 December 2022; 21:18) this is a reply to message 101,915

LadBaby? (101,915) by Steven Berning from USA Can someone please help explain LadBaby to me? I'm a citizen of the U.S., I get that there is a cultural difference to the UK. Even so, we have our novelty acts. We have our nerdy white boys who somehow have a huge hit or two. Vanilla Ice, Marky Marky and the Funk Bunch. However, our nerdy white boy novelty acts last for one or two songs, one or two albums, one or two years. Not, five years? How is LadBaby about to have the coveted Christmas #1 for a fifth year in a row? I've watched a few videos. What am I missing? I don't find them to be particularly funny, particularly good looking, nor particularly talented. Sausage rolls? Please, what am I missing? Educate me. (Tuesday 20 December 2022; 07:25)

Top posters (101,916) by Jamie from UK What happened to Andrew? (Tuesday 20 December 2022; 07:54) this is a reply to message 101,908

Top posters (101,908) by enwar00 from usa I miss Deedre aka MiTodoChop @HBF from Canada. She was the sweetest. Of course hi Billy from Greece, I will make it there one day. And where is Licia? I hope people are well in the lambily. (Monday 19 December 2022; 23:51)

So what (101,887) by Jamie from UK What are you actually going on about? Actually laughing out loud. (Sunday 18 December 2022; 02:44) this is a reply to message 101,878

So what (101,878) by jaker20 from US Hon stop fooling yourself. You dont "care" about Mariah. You want to wheel her into a hospital and get fixed so that you can get entertained. "Honey, you use to be a 10, now you're a 5, you should get treatment cause I don't like this, surgery or watch your waistline or I don't like you anymore." Hilarious. Lol. (Saturday 17 December 2022; 17:45)

So what (101,869) by Jamie from UK So you would rather her be out there making performances like this? Yeah that’s really gonna do the legacy good. No one here is criticising her, she’s human after all. We’re just concerned as something is clearly wrong. I’ve followed Mariah since I was 11 I think I’m allowed to be concerned about someone I care about and have invested a lot of time in. I hope she is reading this forum then she will see how much her fans care about her welfare. (Saturday 17 December 2022; 10:49) this is a reply to message 101,863

So what (101,863) by Johnny from Ireland Guys, get a grip, she's alive and well, clearly. The voice might not be there but she's out and about. I hope to God she's not reading these messages. Who needs fans when she has so many critics? Be thankful for the legacy if nothing else. (Saturday 17 December 2022; 02:02)

Why is everyone surprised? (101,856) by Jamie from UK I think even Mariah looked disappointed in this clip. (Friday 16 December 2022; 16:57) this is a reply to message 101,854

Why is everyone surprised? (101,854) by Bill from the UK That's a fair point you raised at the end there. As it's been so long, is she supposed to say she's been fooling everybody for 25 years? I think we just value Mariah's voice, legacy and music more than she does. She clearly cares more about how she looks, the bank balance, and her endorsements over her voice, her music, and her legacy. It is incredibly sad, but perhaps she simply does not care about it as much as we do. (Friday 16 December 2022; 15:45)

Hero live MSG 2022 (101,851) by Jamie from UK I'm the same Bill, very sad. I feel no vocal coaching is gonna fix this. How can this happen? (Friday 16 December 2022; 12:07) this is a reply to message 101,849

Hero live MSG 2022 (101,849) by Bill from the UK I wish you hadn't shared that. I just burst into tears. This is heartbreaking. Something is really, really wrong. What on earth has happened? (Friday 16 December 2022; 11:51)

This board (101,729) by Jamie from UK Oh girl the 90's was da bomb. Shame you missed out. (Sunday 4 December 2022; 01:40) this is a reply to message 101,716

This board (101,716) by Mariahsbaby from usa You are allowed to say whatever you want about Mariah, but you can't even speak the truth about the members. It's time for most of you guys to simply move on and live in the 90s with your outdated music and your distorted view about Mariah. (Thursday 1 December 2022; 17:21)

Macy's performance (101,708) by Jamie from UK Yes good spin on it, it's great to hear other people's opinions. (Wednesday 30 November 2022; 12:57) this is a reply to message 101,703

Macy's performance (101,703) by Robert-Anthony from United States Maybe she was going to sing it live, but changed her mind during the last hour because of the wind or just wanting the perfect performance. (Tuesday 29 November 2022; 22:20)

Macy's performance (101,700) by Jamie from UK I was in NYC and missed Mariah by one day. I've just been back and on NY1 news they were saying she had auto cue for the lyrics in front of her. They were saying why would she need auto cue for a song she knows inside out. It did surprise me too but then I thought maybe if her nerves got the better of her could she get overwhelmed and forget her lines. I hope it's not that's she's so far removed from reality that she needs prompting. (Tuesday 29 November 2022; 16:25) this is a reply to message 101,680

Macy's performance (101,680) by Randy from USA Dude I just laughed all the way out loud. (Friday 25 November 2022; 23:03)

Mariah on Jimmy Fallon (101,602) by Jamie from UK Yes she seemed to be really focused in this interview and not going off tangent. (Monday 7 November 2022; 17:00) this is a reply to message 101,601

Mariah on Jimmy Fallon (101,601) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter She looked stunning and I appreciate that she didn't go off tangent too much. I adored her part of reading the book. Her speaking voice is like honey and I can hear her read the off a telephone book haha since she has such a soothing voice. I cracked up at the parrot voice. The skit was cute too. (Sunday 6 November 2022; 04:49)

MSG (101,592) by Jamie from UK I hoping I get a JFK trip on those dates as I'll defo be going. (Thursday 3 November 2022; 18:50) this is a reply to message 101,578

MSG (101,578) by Mara from United States I'm just wondering if anyone got tickets to either of the MSG shows on here? I will be there on the 16th. (Tuesday 1 November 2022; 07:48)

Go MC (101,509) by Jamie from UK Mariah Carey debut album is number 3 on the UK Hip hop/R&B album chart this week. Pure vintage. (Saturday 22 October 2022; 01:25)

Just a thought, let's be kind (101,400) by Jamie from UK I've just watched an ABC documentary about Whitney Houston. Both Brandy and Narada Micheal Walden were being interviewed and they both said that it really hurt Whitney that she could no longer sing like she wanted too. Just made me think that maybe we're a little hard on Mariah at times with her voice change. We are lucky to still have her with us and making music. I'm sure it upsets her too that she no longer has the voice she had. Just a thought. Let's be kind. (Tuesday 4 October 2022; 20:49)
