About Stacey from USA: Been a fan since 1993. Favorite albums include Daydream, TEOM, and Music Box. I love a good discussion, but won't stand for hateful comments because we disagree. I am too old to deal with drama and so are you. Keep it real with me and we'll have some fun. Peace.

Re: The uselessness of trying to change someone (74,008) (74,016) by Stacey from USA Loved every word. Probably the most spot on post about Mariah's current situation I've ever read. Thank you. (Tuesday 28 March 2017; 22:12)

Re: Emotions (2017 TMC Radio Mix) (73,977) (74,000) by Stacey from USA I'd love an mp3 too. (Tuesday 28 March 2017; 05:10)

Re: The Beautiful Ones (73,906) (73,927) by Stacey from USA One of my favs for sure. The whole haunting vibe of the song is genius. Plus, she blends so well with Dru Hill. Such a masterpiece. (Friday 24 March 2017; 19:10)

Re: Celine, Aretha, and all that stuff... (73,907) (73,926) by Stacey from USA Nope, you can't fake that stuff. That's why I dismiss the whole Celine was rude to Aretha argument. I couldn't believe this topic was resurrected either. Leave it alone already, lol. (Friday 24 March 2017; 19:09)

Re: "I'm free" vs "If it's over" (73,896) (73,925) by Stacey from USA K, you know it. I have a CD player. You know we're old school in my house. My 8 year old daughter empties the dishwasher. What does she turn on? Daydream of course. (Friday 24 March 2017; 19:06)

Re: "I'm free" vs "If it's over" (73,861) (73,885) by Stacey from USA I played Daydream in its entirety yesterday. I Am Free is such an underestimated gem. (Thursday 23 March 2017; 19:55)

Celine, Aretha, and all that stuff... (73,884) by Stacey from USA Celine didn't upstage anyone. Geez. Anytime she is asked about other artists, she always has nice things to say. She was so complimentary and gracious when asked about Ariana and John Legend taking on Beauty and the Beast. This idea that Celine was rude to Aretha Franklin is just plain ridiculous. Celine doesn't strike me as a person who shades others compared to Ms. "I don't know her". On Chain of Fools, MC was going at it with Aretha too. They were both trying to out do each other, most notably at the end. Was MC being disrespectful? No. Why even ask the question? It was a Divas show. People want to hear them ladies sing. Period. We need to stop beating this poor dead horse. (Thursday 23 March 2017; 19:50)

Re: If you could (73,392) (73,416) by Stacey from USA The Beautiful Ones, Fly Like A Bird. I mean can you imagine all the amazing runs? Wow. MIAM? Um, I'd have to choose One More Try. I think her 2014 rendition is ok. But, I'd love to see her go after this song with 20 year old age voice. (Monday 6 March 2017; 22:15)

Re: If you could (73,410) (73,414) by Stacey from USA Ohhhh, I love The Beautiful Ones. It is such an overlooked amazing cover. Prince just doesn't let anyone cover his songs. So to let Mariah take a record this song was a huge compliment to her. (Monday 6 March 2017; 22:09)

Re: No albums (73,377) (73,412) by Stacey from USA So true. TOEM was so good, folks had to pay attention. Radio stations had to play her music because folks requested her songs be played. It saddens me a bit seeing her falter. She's such a musical genius. (Monday 6 March 2017; 22:07)

Re: What should Mariah do now? (73,154) (73,173) by Stacey from USA Oh sure, I agree she sings to prerecorded tracks to save her voice for those songs she needs to sing live. Her concerts are equally demanding. But, every time she gets up to sing, I'm not cringing wondering how it's going to go like MC. (Monday 27 February 2017; 3:52)

Re: What should Mariah do now? (73,127) (73,133) by Stacey from USA I don't know if MC had vocal surgery. I think along with telling MC what to wear, how to act, Tommy Mottola also did all he could to protect that voice. Sure, he was thinking of money, the bottom line. Nonetheless, if we look back at when her voice started to deteriorate, it was around the time of her divorce. TM was no longer able to do what he could to protect his investment. I wonder why after all these years, MC's voice has gotten worse while someone like Celine can hit that high note from All By Myself 20 years later. (Saturday 25 February 2017; 19:30)

MC on Kimmel, Edward (72,775) by Stacey from USA Badly needed and MC delivered. Maybe NYE woke MC up in some respects. Let's hope. VOL didn't have all the flair we are used to vocally, but it was obvious that MC still loves that song and that alone it seemed was enough to deliver a good performance. There were moments her voice wasn't there for this or that note. She didn't sweat it. MC is so good at changing up a note or run on cue. And I loved the long note at the end, like take that ya'all. As far as I Don't, a message to YG: I don't. Thank heavens there is a rap free version. Edward, loved all your thoughts on the topic. Agree 100%. (Friday 17 February 2017; 4:25)

Re: Mariah on Kimmel (72,610) (72,634) by Stacey from USA Yeah, if you can't get along with Ellen, then it's you with the problem, lol. Kimmel takes everything in stride so MC's appearance should go ok. I mean, they got in the bath together last time for crying out loud. (Tuesday 14 February 2017; 4:02)

Re: No rap edit (72,186) (72,238) by Stacey from USA Thank you for the link. I like the song, but think the rap is so out of place. (Monday 6 February 2017; 4:55)

I Don't (72,132) by Stacey from USA The song has potential, except for one thing: YG. The rap verse is so unnecessary and seems out of place. Ugh, let the rap collabo go, Mariah. The video? Just awful. (Saturday 4 February 2017; 4:44)

Re: I Don't (71,772) (71,847) by Stacey from USA I gotta agree. The short clip made the song sound horrible. But when you hear the song from the very beginning, it actually sounds quite catchy. So, I'll take a few steps back and wait for the full song. I like how she's working with a singer instead of another rapper. (Tuesday 31 January 2017; 4:52)

New song snippet (71,727) by Stacey from USA Wow, and I thought Infinity was the worst thing MC's ever written. Yikes. (Saturday 28 January 2017; 21:03)

Re: Lipping and off you go (69,073) (69,175) by Stacey from USA Amen. Preach brother, preach. (Tuesday 6 December 2016; 21:13)

Re: Stelle is here to stay (69,166) (69,174) by Stacey from USA Ugh, not good. Anyway, nice avatar. Such a great album. (Tuesday 6 December 2016; 21:09)

Re: Freak show (69,145) (69,173) by Stacey from USA Back to the Grammys 2006 topic? Yikes, that was so yesterday for me. Duuude, move on. I moved on from that discussion a long time ago. More important things to worry about, you know. Watch that video again. Parts are clearly lipped, especially during the final FLAB chorus. But, I digress. Just because a majority of folks say one thing doesn't mean the contrary opinion is invalid. Peace. (Tuesday 6 December 2016; 21:08)

Re: Freak show (69,099) (69,120) by Stacey from USA Terna, nothing new for me. I'm used to being in the minority of thought. Doesn't mean I'm wrong. Peace. (Tuesday 6 December 2016; 0:09)

Re: My "Infinity" re-edit (69,051) (69,076) by Stacey from USA I have the mp3 Skip made. I'll email it to you. (Monday 5 December 2016; 4:27)

Re: Freak show (69,031) (69,075) by Stacey from USA That was my thought when I saw her Divas outfit. Ridiculous. Is this what we've come to? I'm sorry, but I miss 90s Mariah. There was something so mature about her, even after she left Tommy. (Monday 5 December 2016; 4:24)

Ugh (69,048) by Stacey from USA I am so sick of her boobs always hanging out. Enough already. Ugh. (Sunday 4 December 2016; 10:21)
