Mop the Floor song (104,108) by enwar00 from usa I guess despite being an emotionless stiff she still has humor. (Saturday 18 November 2023; 14:53)

It's time (103,929) by enwar00 from usa I'm on YouTube waiting for the premiere of the new It's Time video. There's some sci-fi orchestral music playing with graphics and even this is cool. Coupled with the anticipation may end up being cooler than the actual video. (Wednesday 1 November 2023; 05:04)

Torn (103,776) by enwar00 from usa I am torn as well. I've seen Mariah every time she's come to Chicago, from Music Box through Caution, and part of me wants to keep the streak going. But I already saw her Christmas show at the Beacon Theater during its second year in 2015, which may have been the best year for it voice wise. Also, ticket prices have become ridiculous post-COVID, so that turns me off and makes me tired of playing that game. Lastly, based on the most recent videos, I'm not sure if it's even worth it. With that said, I was pleasantly surprised and impressed with the Christmas special that aired last year, so maybe she'll pull some miracle and it'll sound good. So, yes, I'm also torn. Perhaps I'll watch last year's show off my DVR early December and decide then. (Tuesday 17 October 2023; 01:06) this is a reply to message 103,764

Torn (103,764) by C from United States Wow, I haven't posted here in years. I see some familiar faces still live here. Is anyone else torn on whether or not to go see Mariah in this upcoming run of shows? On the one hand, I want to see her because I've been a lamb for 25 years. With so many stars dying, there is always a scary thought of what if this is your last chance in the back on my head. On the other hand, her performances are just awful and maddening these days. Those shows last year had me so upset and sad for her. I also hate how she waits until October to publicize the shows. Why not tell us in July or August so that people can get their coins and travel set ahead of time? It's inconsiderate considering that the shows are in the midst of 2 holidays. I had to ask myself could I justify paying up to $1,000 for a front row seat (I'm too old of a lamb to sit in the back) just to hear her sing flat, and lipsynch the same old songs in the same old arrangement? Yet... a part of me still longs to go just for the merch and the chance to be seen by her. (Monday 16 October 2023; 05:18)

It's A Wrap visualizer (103,736) by enwar00 from usa Mariah just released a new visualizer for It's a Wrap. I'm sure everyone will love it. (Friday 13 October 2023; 19:03)

The greats (103,621) by enwar00 from usa You met Georgie? Details please. (Saturday 30 September 2023; 20:12) this is a reply to message 103,618

The greats (103,618) by Andrew from the UK Bobby-A: what have I told you about thinking? Don't to it to yourself. But here you may be right. I predict Last Christmas will do very well this year on the back of the Wham anniversary and Netflix documentary - which I recommend to any and everyone. Personally, I hitherto never clicked with the song . But I now love it because of nostalgia and a renewed love of George Michael - who I once met. Not sure if I've ever mentioned that. (Saturday 30 September 2023; 17:27)

Workin' Hard (103,367) by enwar00 from usa Reminds me of Long Ago. The beat overall, but especially her low vocals during the first verse. Feels like a precursor to that song. (Friday 8 September 2023; 07:43)

It's here (103,365) by enwar00 from usa I agree. As a whole, I'm loving All I Love For in this extended version. To me it instantly sounded so much better than that cropped up Rarities version. (Friday 8 September 2023; 06:59) this is a reply to message 103,356

It's here (103,356) by Jamie from UK Love My Prayer great vocals. The vocals on All I Live For are better than on the Rarities too. (Friday 8 September 2023; 01:15)

It's here (103,364) by enwar00 from usa The shade of it all. (Friday 8 September 2023; 06:57) this is a reply to message 103,355

It's here (103,355) by Edward from USA Does iTunes still exist? (Friday 8 September 2023; 01:13)

Clivillés and Cole (103,335) by enwar00 from usa Haha it's funny because the past couple weeks I've been listening to my Seduction album that they made just before they hooked up with Mimi. To be honest I never realized she held Music Box this dearly to her. Thought she thought it was too basic or something. Then was almost thinking this is getting such a better treatment with the re-release because it's her highest seller. I guess I may be wrong. (Thursday 7 September 2023; 07:37) this is a reply to message 103,314

Clivillés and Cole (103,314) by Jamie from UK I'm getting really excited now for Saturday. I've been playing Music Box non stop, but that's nothing new for me. I was just thinking and wishing if there were any unreleased songs that collaborated with Clivillés and Cole. I always used to love this side of her in the early days. It was such a shame that David Cole passed so young into Mariah's career as I feel that both David and Robert had a good bond with her. I love how much Mariah holds Music Box close to her heart and the memories. If only all parties involved could forget the past and get together just one more time. Come on Mariah call Walter, Kelly, Shanrae (if you can find her) and Melonie and let's make some magic. (Wednesday 6 September 2023; 00:02)

Disc two (103,334) by enwar00 from usa I did see a tracklisting for the cassette that has Everything Fades Away as track 11. Well there you go. I had no idea that disc 2 was this stacked with goodies. Puts that Butterfly re-release to shame honestly. Didn't even think about buying this, but now I definitely want it. Thank you for the info. (Thursday 7 September 2023; 07:32) this is a reply to message 103,319

Disc two (103,319) by Bill from the UK Full tracklisting for the bonus disc: 1. All I Live For (extended version) 2. Endless Love (duet with Luther Vandross) 3. Do You Think of Me 4. Workin' Hard 5. My Prayer 6. Hero (2009 version) 7. Anytime You Need a Friend (extended mix) 8. Music Box (a capella) 9. Dreamlover (live from Top of the Pops) 10. Without You (live from Top of the Pops) 11. Dreamlover (Def Club Mix) 12. Anytime You Need a Friend (C&C Club Version) 13. Anytime You Need a Friend (Soul Convention Remix) 14. I've Been Thinking About You (Terry Hunter Remix) 15. Workin' Hard (Terry Hunter Remix) This indicates that Everything Fades Away may be placed as track 11 on the regular album (its rightful place). I cannot wait for Friday. (Wednesday 6 September 2023; 23:31)

I saw on Facebook (103,189) by enwar00 from usa A new flavor of Black Irish. (Wednesday 16 August 2023; 07:33) this is a reply to message 103,187

I saw on Facebook (103,187) by Randy from USA It was a random fan page. It said that MC has a big announcement coming soon. Anybody know anything? It better not be the annual Christmas cut and paste concerts. Hopefully it's a studio album. But I have a Right To Dream (Randy's Theme). (Tuesday 15 August 2023; 22:24)

Mariah's version (103,098) by enwar00 from usa That Love Story acoustic performance is just beautiful, one of my faves, so short and sweet, forgot about it. Can you believe that was 15 years ago? That was a long time ago. I feel like a different person. Looking back now, an acoustic remake album would've been super cool. And she was still in her 30s. Now she's in her 50s. That's a big difference. Maybe her voice just wasn't meant to last. Maybe she's just enjoying her life and kids and hundreds of millions of dollars now. Personally I'm bored of the Christmas stuff. I loved Caution. I guess that was the last album. I'll go play it now. Never say never. Bye. (Saturday 29 July 2023; 04:59) this is a reply to message 103,092

Mariah's version (103,092) by Edward from USA Mariah is definitely not in a good place vocally to accomplish what Taylor is doing while she's still super popular. She should've done something like that back in 2010-2013, but I guess that ship has sailed. This is just beautiful. Had she re-worked some of her hits around this time, she would've come out a winner. Sadly, Mariah can't sing two words straight these days. It is sad, but evidenced by her last performance, it is true. (Friday 28 July 2023; 19:02)

It's a Wrap live (102,165) by enwar00 from usa Remember when Mariah performed It's a Wrap live on the George Lopez Tonight show? Rewatching it now, Mariah killed it. She was still on fire in 2009 and 2010. I remember being blown away during the Angels Advocate show, thinking she sounded better than during the Adventures of Mimi tour. And of course MCIIY came later that year, which I love the vocals on as well as the Christmas special she did while pregnant. Maybe it is the booze. (Wednesday 1 February 2023; 04:44)

The queen stays on top (102,020) by enwar00 from usa It really is amazing. And it's exciting knowing that this Holiday season she just moved 4 weeks closer to eventually reclaiming her record of having the song with the most weeks atop the Hot 100, this time with a solo song. (Wednesday 4 January 2023; 00:32) this is a reply to message 102,014

The queen stays on top (102,014) by Edward from USA Mariah Carey’s "All I Want for Christmas Is You" adds 12th week atop Hot 100. Isn't that amazing? (Tuesday 3 January 2023; 17:36)

Mariah's most famous, not famous song? (102,017) by enwar00 from usa Matty, I would say The Roof. (Tuesday 3 January 2023; 20:32) this is a reply to message 102,009

Mariah's most famous, not famous song? (102,009) by Matty from Vancouver Canada I've been thinking; Even my friends who don't vibe with Mariah (we all have those friends hahaha) know "Triumphant". In your opinion: What's Mariah's most popular un-famous song? I think more people know "Almost Home" then the Lambs realize. (Tuesday 3 January 2023; 04:44)

Early prediction (101,991) by enwar00 from usa Ohh yeah, it's 3 days, haha. Ok that makes it more likely than. (Saturday 31 December 2022; 20:57) this is a reply to message 101,988

Early prediction (101,988) by Edward from USA It would definitely be amazing if she stayed at #1 for another week. AIWFCIY streams from December 23 to December 25 were huge. But as I said before, should Brenda hit #1 instead, good for her. (Saturday 31 December 2022; 18:15)

Cheers to 2023 (101,987) by enwar00 from usa That voice I first heard in my childhood still touched me leading up to this Christmas. Mariah has been such a big part of my life, and I think I can speak for other people as well, and I smurfing love her. Cheers to 2023 MCA Lambily. Love ya lots. (Saturday 31 December 2022; 05:39)

Early prediction (101,986) by enwar00 from usa Wow Edward, that's insane. I think Christmas Eve and Day are the only 2 out of the 7 days that make up this chart week that the song benefited from, so for it to stay at #1 just based on that is crazy to me. I guess those monstrous streaming numbers that AIWFCIY is able to pull, breaking daily records on Spotify and elsewhere 28 years after it was released, are just that monstrous. Honestly even if it doesn't stay at #1, congrats and hats off to Mariah for still breaking records this far into her unparalleled career. (Saturday 31 December 2022; 05:37) this is a reply to message 101,985

Early prediction (101,985) by Edward from USA Talk of the Charts predicts AIWFCIY will stay at #1 for another week by a thin margin. Let's see. (Friday 30 December 2022; 18:10)

The Star live (101,936) by enwar00 from usa So my dahling friend and fellow lamb Chris sent me this beautiful live performance of The Star from 2018. She sounds amazing to me, almost unbelievable how different she sounded just 4 years ago. Although that makes me think of some recent messages on here that stated never count her out, her voice can always come back. Also very touching and sweet interaction between her and Monroe. (Thursday 22 December 2022; 06:34)

I want to apologize (101,911) by enwar00 from usa This was a nice and thoughtful message. (Tuesday 20 December 2022; 00:13) this is a reply to message 101,903

I want to apologize (101,903) by jaker20 from US I know I can be a bitch sometimes. I honestly just come here and read these negative posts and press reply. I am replying to posts. And not to anyone of you. It is not personal. Anyway you can all post what you want, yall free to drag Mariah to the pits. I don't care. We're all fam here. Merry Christmas woot. (Monday 19 December 2022; 19:10)

Sometimes the voice gets in the way of the music (101,910) by enwar00 from usa Wow, AIWFCIY being the song of the decade would be insane. I never even thought about that. (Tuesday 20 December 2022; 00:12) this is a reply to message 101,902

Sometimes the voice gets in the way of the music (101,902) by jaker20 from US It is not a coincidence that this chapter of her career is turning out to be another huge one, and she's just getting started. Every year, the song gets bigger and bigger. It's because when you strip out the melisma and all that vocal acrobatics that many lambs adore, but many in the public actually despise, the true magic is revealed: the music. We get to focus on the music. It's always been about the music and enjoying everything about it, I can go to a Mariah show, and enjoy just that, in whatever form Mariah's voice is in, does not make her any less than, or enjoy the show any less. AIWFIY is on its path for Song of the Decade. (Monday 19 December 2022; 18:51)

Whoopi Goldberg mocks Mariah (101,909) by enwar00 from usa Lol I also thought she looked like Patti as well. I did think she looked good with the blonde and red jumpsuit despite whatever shade may have been thrown. (Monday 19 December 2022; 23:56) this is a reply to message 101,904

Whoopi Goldberg mocks Mariah (101,904) by Brad from USA Darlene need to be sure she give back Ms. Patti her blonde wig. Because even if Mariah didn't snatch it, Patti will for sure. Stay outta Patti's closet, Darlene. Happy Holidays to all. (Monday 19 December 2022; 19:15)

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?

Through the Rain live (101,893) by enwar00 from usa So nice to see footage from the Charmbracelet world tour. Through the Rain continues to grow on me this many years later. The message and lyrics are beautiful, and the fact that the song is somewhat underrated somehow make them even more so. (Sunday 18 December 2022; 18:37)

Miss You Most (At Christmas Time) (101,778) by enwar00 from usa Matty that's awesome to hear. So glad you and your friends had that experience, thank you for sharing. Magical is such a perfect word to describe it all. I've been stuck at home with COVID this past week (blessed and lucky with very mild symptoms) but it gave me time to decorate for Christmas. Merry Christmas and MCIIY have been the soundtracks, and I really feel something magical that comes through, something extra special from the rest of her amazing catalogue. About to put on the All I Want For Christmas Is You movie and keep working on the tree. (Sunday 11 December 2022; 02:07) this is a reply to message 101,774

Miss You Most (At Christmas Time) (101,774) by Matty from Vancouver Canada She sound like perfection last night, I can't believe how amazing she was. My friend had tears running down her face the entire show. It was a truly magical and stunning night. (Saturday 10 December 2022; 18:57)
