About Bill from the UK: I love Mariah more than you do. London Daydream Tour Attendee.

Emotions and Make It Happen HD (94,769) by Bill from the UK Also, in case anybody missed it, Mariah has uploaded HD versions for the videos of Emotions and Make It Happen on her YouTube/Vevo account. All three Emotions videos are beautiful in my opinion, three of my ultimate favourites. (Saturday 1 August 2020; 09:46)

Re: Womp, womp (94,761) (94,768) by Bill from the UK Correct me if I am wrong, but the C&C Club Mix is, I believe, the 12" Club Mix re-titled. I think they are one and the same. Do please let me know what the difference is between to the two though if I am wrong. Make It Happen was missing a remix though. There is an edit of the Extended Version (confusingly also called the Radio Edit, same as the edit of the album version). It is available on the US maxi CD (44K 74189). Also a shame the Can't Let Go edit, that removes the whistle and trims down the beginning, wasn't put out. But, I can't and should not complain about these minor things. It is great what Mariah is doing and I love her for it. Having all this material available is amazing. (Saturday 1 August 2020; 07:22)

Re: Disappointed (94,756) (94,757) by Bill from the UK You never know. She may end this whole thing with a pre-debut era special. Demo tape, alternate album takes, Narm convention set etc. After all, I've got a right to dream. (Friday 31 July 2020; 17:13)

Re: Emotions EP (94,752) (94,753) by Bill from the UK And Make It Happen. Yay. I love these remix EPs and having them all digitally. I do already have them across CDs and 12" singles, but am looking forward to is entering the rarer territory. From Music Box onwards some remixes were quite rare (Bam Jam Soul of Dreamlover, Video Edit of AYNAF, Crash Dub Crash of JTTW). (Friday 31 July 2020; 10:25)

Re: Hopes for MC30 (94,748) (94,751) by Bill from the UK Ditto. (Friday 31 July 2020; 08:28)

(94,746) by Bill from the UK It's Friday tomorrow. Squeal. (Thursday 30 July 2020; 18:48)

Re: MC30 justice for Loverboy (94,743) (94,744) by Bill from the UK The sweetest revenge haha. (Wednesday 29 July 2020; 20:10)

Re: Hero melody / MC30 wants (94,734) (94,735) by Bill from the UK Can we add Crystal Ball with Lauryn Hill to the mix as well? I loved her Miseducation album and played that to death back in the day. (Tuesday 28 July 2020; 11:55)

Re: Hopes for MC30 (94,725) (94,726) by Bill from the UK One major ommission, the European legs of the Daydream tour digitally released. Either as video or just the audio in HQ. (Monday 27 July 2020; 13:24)

Hopes for MC30 (94,725) by Bill from the UK Great post R-A. My wants are as follows: 1. The demo tape in its raw, what-Tommy-heard format. 2. Alternative takes and cutting room snippets as per All In Your Mind. 3. Any recorded yet unreleased songs, either in demo or finished format (Can You Hear Me). 4. Remix EPs for all main single releases. 5. The whole back catalogue re-issued on 180g vinyl, in beautiful gatefold sleeves. 6. All official music videos (including remix versions). Most are on iTunes anyway so it's just packaging those up and filling any gaps (the scrapped Vision of Love, Underneath the Stars). 7. The First Vision and Thanksgiving Special available digitally. In short, just give us everything lol. (Monday 27 July 2020; 11:42)

Re: From the vaults (94,704) (94,707) by Bill from the UK I was thinking the very same myself. Music Box had great remixes for Dreamlover and AYNAF, and as you say some really rare promo ones. I do have them, but would love to have them all together as one collection. Imagine every remix ever being out there to stream or download at will. Currently I have to dig out my CD singles if I want to hear them in HQ. MC is just so good to us. This celebration is what every fan would want, and even if the items from the vault remain as 30 second clips only, the fact we have heard something recorded in 1989 and buried on a mastering tape is astonishing. (Friday 24 July 2020; 23:50)

Re: All In Your Mind blown (94,695) (94,699) by Bill from the UK Wow. I don't know what to say. Mariah needs to release everything from this vault, please please please. That alternative take is incredible. How has this been locked away for 30 years? (Friday 24 July 2020; 19:36)

Re: There’s got to be a way EP (94,697) (94,698) by Bill from the UK Scroll on the Someday pic and TGTBAW shows up. (Friday 24 July 2020; 19:34)

Debut remixes (94,688) by Bill from the UK So whilst the debut remixes don't hold a candle to what would come later, I am very pleased to now have some 12" exclusives digitally. The Sample Dub Mix of TGTBAW was only ever released on vinyl before, and the dubs and the bonus beats being now digitally available for Someday is amazing. Being the completest and geek and perfectionist I am though, my only annoyances are these: 1. There another "Pianoapercaloopapella" released on the European maxi single which is about a minute longer that hasn't been included. 2. TGTBAW has mistitled the "Vocal Club Mix" as the "Vocal Dub Mix". The remix titling did get confusing for that release though, which some having "Alt" prefixed, even though they were the same as the remix without it. But, to have these now available to stream and purchase as remix EPs is brilliant, and let's all pray she continues this for the other singles. There are some exceptionally rare or vinyl exclusives out there and The Remixes compilation did fall short in a lot of ways. Please MC reach out to me to be your remix consultant lol.

Re: Nick (94,681) (94,686) by Bill from the UK Really? I found the post incredibly conceited. (Thursday 23 July 2020; 23:14)

Re: New book (94,671) (94,672) by Bill from the UK It would be hilarious if Mariah didn't even mention him at all in the book. Just to highlight how insignificant he was to her. (Thursday 23 July 2020; 08:22)

Always Too Beautiful (94,665) by Bill from the UK Check out this excellent fan remix of Always Be My Baby and Beautiful. (Tuesday 21 July 2020; 18:12)

Re: Someday Live Debut (94,662) (94,664) by Bill from the UK I really hope it is Emotions' turn and she puts out that Can You Hear Me track she teased on the video. An unused song from 1991. Wow. I will die. (Tuesday 21 July 2020; 16:54)

Re: Someday Live Debut (94,648) (94,660) by Bill from the UK It's actually quite endearing how much of a mess this performance is haha. Bless her. I still wish it had been included though for the lols, but get why it wasn't. I can't wait for this Friday, wishing my weeks away for the foreseeable future. (Tuesday 21 July 2020; 09:34)

Re: Nick (94,643) (94,647) by Bill from the UK I'm not sure how I feel about Nick now putting his location as heaven, saying he is leaving the planet, and goodbye earth etc. If he is genuinely suicidal then that is one thing, and I wish him all the help in the world against that struggle. If however he is belittling suicide by over dramatising for likes and sympathy, then that is probably as worse as his anti-Semitic comments. (Sunday 19 July 2020; 07:12)

Re: Undubbed Live Debut (94,634) (94,639) by Bill from the UK It was dubbed, you can tell the differences in pitching when watching the DVD vs what MC just put out. Plus, the most obvious is the whistle on Don't Play That Song. But it's all good. I am glad she is breaking away from everything having to be 100% perfect. I can live with 99.9%. (Friday 17 July 2020; 18:46)

Re: Undubbed Live Debut (94,630) (94,632) by Bill from the UK I always found her undubbed vocals better. It's so much more real, like she's in the room with you. This is why I also loved St John the Divine so much because it is her "once through" singing voice. The weaker whistle on Don't Play That Song just proves she can genuinely hit those notes and like everybody she is human. The EP is beautiful, I can't stop playing it. (Friday 17 July 2020; 11:43)

The Live Debut (94,628) by Bill from the UK Wow, so we get a lovely HQ version of the Tatou Club performance (minus Someday). On Insta MC said how there will be remixes, b sides, live performances etc. I'm most excited about the b sides. If we get songs from the prime years (Can You Hear Me) I will be so, so happy. (Friday 17 July 2020; 08:05)

Mariah's current look (94,611) by Bill from the UK The pics MC has posted on Insta. The loose curls. The darker hair colour. The earth tone make up. This is the look I've always longed for. It complements her features so much. (Wednesday 15 July 2020; 21:54)

Re: MC30 every Friday (94,599) (94,603) by Bill from the UK Nice idea. I was never happy with the original Ballads compilation as Emotions the album wasn't represented at all, despite having some of her best ballads ever. And I'll be in the cold, cold ground before I recognise How Much as a ballad. (Wednesday 15 July 2020; 14:32)
