My 2025 - hopes, dreams, wishes, and prayers for Mariah Carey (108,066) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End Bobby (can I call you that?), don't cut down your post on my account. That would be mournful. There's room for everybody. We all bring something to the table. I'm on my live and let live tip, so let's play. I really do enjoy Muni Long's tone and you're right, she has adopted the way MC projects her head voice and that's probably why their vocals blend so well. I've caught her on a few interviews giving very much The MC Academy of Media Training. I hope the twinning continues in future projects.

My 2025 - hopes, dreams, wishes, and prayers for Mariah Carey (108,058) by Bobby A from United States I have given Baby from Dreamville my special guest star status this year. I am cutting back on my posts in 2025. We need to have more fun this year because it is going to be different year on so many levels than 2024. By the way, Teddy Swims' new song, Black and White with Muni Long, is just another example of how MC's vocal stylings have had a huge influence on Muni Long. She sounds just like MC on the song.

My 2025 - hopes, dreams, wishes, and prayers for Mariah Carey (108,065) by MusicfanJ from Germany Lol even our real church website from the neighborhood hasn't so many "faith" words on it. The post seemed like from the TV format "Hour of power". Quite amusing. (Monday 27 January 2025; 12:24) this is a reply to message 108,064

My 2025 - hopes, dreams, wishes, and prayers for Mariah Carey (108,064) by Zachariah from Croatia You are not. In one moment I was wondering, am I on some kind religious self help web page or on a Mariah Carey news page. (Monday 27 January 2025; 08:16)

My 2025 - hopes, dreams, wishes, and prayers for Mariah Carey (108,057) by TJ from Norway Did Jesus turn your water into wine, yesterday? Am I the only non religious person on this board? I wish that Mariah get more reflected about the world around her and make good decisions, helping others and maybe write some meaningful music instead of so-called RnB she has made lately.

A look back at: My MC 2015 fantasy wish list (48,007) #1 to #5 (108,063) by Bobby A from United States I knew it. Please post more this year. I really enjoy reading your posts. (Monday 27 January 2025; 02:16) this is a reply to message 108,051

A look back at: My MC 2015 fantasy wish list (48,007) #1 to #5 (108,051) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End Haha. I am in fact a Butterfly aficionado. But I think the only ringtone I ever bought of MC's was Whenever You Call. IKR? Other than that I use her rare releases because I get asked, Who was that? To which I could then gush over Mariah in all manner of ways without having to sound like I'm trying to. Her live tributes to Patti, Stevie and Diva's Live always used to get the best responses. I don't know how other people can't distinguish her tone and inflections from hearing just one note but that's the world we live in. Let's hope there are some live performances gearing up for this year that will become future classics. I think of With You at the 2018 AMAs is the closest thus far (ugh, the visuals) but, YMMV. I hate that the original upload that had more than 5 million views on YouTube got taken down with no explanation. *cries* (Saturday 25 January 2025; 02:10)

My 2025 - hopes, dreams, wishes, and prayers for Mariah Carey (108,062) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End TJ, I remember you from the inception of MCA and we rarely agree on anything. So I wasn't exactly expecting you to rejoice at my post (when hell freezes over, perhaps?). But it's specifically for Mariah or anyone else who happens to need it and for what it's worth I find your ubiquitous presence here very comforting. True story. I know you must care for Mariah the human beyond idolization because we were both here in the trenches trying to figure out what happened when M was leaving voice messages on her website about not knowing what was going on and how she needed a break. I still remember the songs on The Mariah Radio widget back in the day. We all need to be truly seen, heard, loved and comforted (flaws and all) especially in times of distress and I don't know about you but this is how I regenerate - through faith. We talk about MC's gospel songs regularly (well, I do IRL). We talk about how many songs Mariah's written referencing Derek Jeter and there are many. But Jesus is by far her biggest muse. It's what sets her apart from most other popular singer song-writers and probably hasn't helped her any awards. Jesus didn't get any awards either. He's the most famous person ever. Accolades are nice but one shouldn't place those things above the legacy real one leaves behind with how you impact other people's lives.

My 2025 - hopes, dreams, wishes, and prayers for Mariah Carey (108,061) by RL from USA This is a really great post about "Wishing Well" for her. I appreciate the diversity of thought you brought to this page, especially from a fanbase that should be tolerant and inclusive of all people even if some of us aren't as progressive.

Thanks.) 1. Spiritual fulfillment - That she continues to nurture her relationship with God, leaning on Him for guidance, peace, and joy in all aspects of her life. 2. A Godly marriage - That she finds a partner who shares her faith, values, and desire to honor God in their union. 3. Healing and restoration - That the scars from her past - whether from childhood or past relationships - are fully healed, allowing her to live with peace and joy unshaken by old wounds. 4. Authentic love and support - That she surrounds herself with people who truly love, respect, and support her for who she is, beyond her celebrity persona. 5. Grace to be human - That she is shown grace and understanding by others, allowing her to make mistakes, grow, and evolve without judgment or undue criticism. 6. Freedom from worldly pressures - That she finds liberation from the entertainment industry's materialistic and superficial values, allowing her to fully embrace her God-given identity. 7. Purposeful legacy - That she continues to use her platform and music to inspire others and share the presence of God, as she has done through her Christmas albums and other works. 8. A loving and faith-centered family - That her family relationships, including with her children, remain strong, loving, and centered on mutual faith and respect. 9. Unwavering faith - That she remains steadfast in her faith, even when faced with life's challenges, and continues to be a beacon of hope for others. 10. Divine guidance - That she discerns God's will in her decisions, whether in her personal life or professional endeavors, and trusts His plan for her. In Jesus Almighty name, Amen.

My 2025 - hopes, dreams, wishes, and prayers for Mariah Carey (108,060) by MusicfanJ from Germany Lol, while reading the post from Baby from Dreamville I thought I clicked on a church website. Haha. TJ I share your wishes and hopes. As a Star Wars fan I would say: Do it or do not, there is no try. Release the "Ugly daughter" album or not. But seriously I wish Mariah most of all health, that she cares about herself. That she stays away from superficial people, who are hollow inside. That she gets her inner muse back to make one more soulful album with great lyrics. And that she finds people who are not fake who she can trust, and help her to have good times besides her superstardom. (Sunday 26 January 2025; 14:16) this is a reply to message 108,057

What's left out in the conversation (108,059) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway I agree. A friend of mine, who is a surgeon, said many years ago that her breast augmentation might have been the reason for her vocal decline between Daydream and Butterfly as well. (Sunday 26 January 2025; 13:42) this is a reply to message 108,054

What's left out in the conversation (108,054) by John from USA I think the intubation for her previous breast augmentation surgery may have contributed to Mariah's vocal concerns. The endotracheal tube goes through the trachea and in between the vocal cords. In majority of people, the effect is usually minimal, but in singers the damage can be more marked. Add to this the fact that Mariah already had vocal cord nodules and had been singing at vocally demanding ranges for several years already before this surgery. (Saturday 25 January 2025; 20:33)

Manifestation (108,055) by Bobby A from United States Yes it would. MC just needs solo producer type of album like what artists did way back then. That is what made a classic Grammy nominated album. (Sunday 26 January 2025; 00:06) this is a reply to message 108,053

Manifestation (108,053) by BFF from United States It would work so well, and they seemed to have such a great rapport as collaborators. Even Dev Hynes himself thinks it's a good idea. (Saturday 25 January 2025; 14:39)

Sabrina Carpenter (108,052) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter One of my collab wish would be SC. I know Mariah loves Olivia Rodrigo (I don't follow her music much) but SC is more like Mariah, image and personality wise. Hyper feminine, cheeky, sensual but not tacky, great sense of humor etc. A fun, catchy summer or spring pop song with them on it would be fun and SC has great visuals.

Music Box 30 (108,043) by Edward from USA Robert-Anthony, I'm so glad people are finally fed up with cancel culture. It's like we're been policed for about anything we say. What happened to the Dixie Chicks should never happen again, regardless of your political leanings. Carrie slayed, period. I would love for someone to ask Snoop Dogg in his face why he performed, he would obliterate them. When you talk at people instead of talking to them, you realize why things happened the way they did. And I'm a Democrat, not a radical one though. (Friday 24 January 2025; 14:59)

Manifestation (108,047) by BFF from United States I want to manifest Mariah working more with Blood Orange (Devote Hynes). I loved "Giving Me Life" on "Caution", and I loved his work with Solange Knowles on the "True" EP. I think the production on his songs (I guess you'd call his style alt-R&B/chill wave) and a more detached vocal would work well with Mariah's current voice. (Friday 24 January 2025; 16:50)

Manifestation (108,048) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Ya I know GML is a fan favorite, unpopular open but I don't really listen to it haha. But I'm good with a mix of songs but I do feel at least her 1st and 2nd single should be upbeat and more catchy. And a good investment on the visuals. Bring in them celeb connections.

Manifestation (108,034) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter I'm going to pull an RA and put it out there that I'm manifesting a March release or announcement in March from MC. Her new post kinda seems like she's ready to kick off a new era, she's also receiving an iHeartRadio Icon award in March. I had given up hope on a new album so I'm being cautiously optimistic. Also I hope whoever presents the award (and if there's a tribute) it's someone relevant. (Thursday 23 January 2025; 14:51)

Mariah's cookies (108,046) by BFF from United States Has anyone on the board ever ordered cookies from here? I always wondered what made Mariah want to do this, but it must be making money if it's still in existence. The reviews I see on Google are not very good lol. (Friday 24 January 2025; 16:46)

Favorite cover song on the wrong album (108,045) by BFF from United States "I Want to Know What Love Is" definitely fit in with her 90s output more than on "Memoirs". She covered a lot of similar 80s power ballads on her 90s albums. I think it would have been cool to hear her cover "One More Try" during that period as well. The state of her voice just wasn't cutting it on the "Me I Am Mariah" recording of that song. (Friday 24 January 2025; 16:12) this is a reply to message 108,038

Favorite cover song on the wrong album (108,038) by Bobby A from United States I was thinking yesterday about all of the things that I dislike about I Want To Know What Love Is. IWTKWLI was on the wrong album. It would have sounded better on Butterfly replacing Outside. Additionally, I have three reasons why IWTKWKLI should have been recorded 12 years earlier. 1. The three minutes and 27 seconds song length would have sounded perfectly on Butterfly. 2. MC's voice was in better shape on Butterfly than Memoirs. 3. Walter Afansieff's piano playing and production would have soared IWTKWLI to the top of the charts. (Friday 24 January 2025; 01:19)

Music Box 30 (108,041) by Bobby A from United States Steve, it was just an innocent post about Carrie Underwood's performance and how she came out on top. There was nothing political about the post. Can we move past 2024? There are great things to look forward to in 2025 and beyond like MC's long awaited new music, the MCA family is growing, the first new daytime soap opera in 25 years, Beyond The Gates debuts on CBS in one month, Finn is Luna father on B&B, and I am moving back to the Atl this summer.
