About MusicfanJ from Germany: I'm a fan of Mariah since Daydream came out.

Re: Insta FLAB (93,592) (93,614) by MusicfanJ from Germany It's really a hard and strange time. I'm at home since three weeks, we are allowed to go outside to walk alone or with one other person. Music really helps to have some other thoughts at home. I wish you a Happy Easter too and all the other lambs even it's not a normal one. Please stay healthy everyone. (Monday 13 April 2020; 13:33)

Re: RIP Bill Withers (93,495) (93,500) by MusicfanJ from Germany How I love Bill Withers. Last year I bought three Cd's because I always loved "Just the two of us" and the phenomenel "Ain't no sunshine". "Lovley day" is so wonderful too. Makes you feel good. I also love "Grandma's hands", Blackstreet did a very good sample with "No diggity", but the original song is pure genius. "Use me", "Who is he", "Harlem", "Hello like before" and "I want to spend the night" are my other favourites. RIP Bill Withers, thank you for real music with heart and soul. Your music will stay forever. (Saturday 4 April 2020; 18:01)

Re: Article: Mariah warns her staff against April Fool's Day pranks (93,492) (93,494) by MusicfanJ from Germany Perfectly written. Every single word. "As this example shows, mega mega rich people telling the very not wealthy to donate money when they alone could sort out a huge chunk of the problem is the contradiction. And actually quite an obscene one." That ist so true. I do believe when this pandemic will end, the world won't be the same. And the people who are normal will think twice for what they spend their money. (Exlude expensive concert tickets and so on.) The new 20ies are definitily not golden at all. But people will realize that this superficial, highspeed life is the wrong way and not healthy. (Friday 3 April 2020; 11:41)

Re: So Cold (93,435) (93,454) by MusicfanJ from Germany "Listening to music from when we were those ages reminds us of those perfect, fragile, precious moments in time we can never go back to." So true, great post Andrew. That's why I choose Daydream too. It was a time you described so well. Daydream was the perfect soundtrack to my life back then, and it will always have a special place in my heart. Although I know those times won't come back, I do miss them. So I'll listen to Mariah's Daydream to escape at least for a while. (Monday 30 March 2020; 14:50)

Re: Article: Mariah Carey celebrates milestone birthday in the studio (93,417) (93,429) by MusicfanJ from Germany "Lie about one year?" That's what I think too. It makes no sense with one year. 5 years okay, but not one. She's born on 27.03.70. That she doesn't like numbers is another thing. (Sunday 29 March 2020; 12:15)

Re: Happy anniversary (93,396) (93,397) by MusicfanJ from Germany Happy birthday Mariah. I wish you all the best. The lambs around the world will celebrate you. Please take care of you. (Friday 27 March 2020; 16:19)

Re: Pandemic (93,300) (93,301) by MusicfanJ from Germany The 2020 with the pandemic is like a nightmare yet. It seems we'll get a shutdown tomorrow. I hope everybody is well, please take care. (Monday 16 March 2020; 17:09)

Re: C virus future plans (93,277) (93,278) by MusicfanJ from Germany Yes, no good times around the world. I think there will be no concerts for a longer time. I hope MC and her family are well. Please everybody take care of yourself. I'm very frightenend and I hope there will be better times soon. (Friday 13 March 2020; 16:32)

Re: Alison (93,269) (93,272) by MusicfanJ from Germany Oh no, please not again. (Thursday 12 March 2020; 21:05)

Re: Never mentioned before (93,266) (93,271) by MusicfanJ from Germany Yes, he is one of the few young musicians I can listen to with joy. I love his retro soul and funk style. But he can do every genre like pop, reggae, rock. That is something he has in common with Mariah. And the melodies. (Thursday 12 March 2020; 21:02)

Re: AYNAF original video (93,210) (93,214) by MusicfanJ from Germany Yes, the pic with the kids look so creepy. Maybe this was the reason Mariah did a new video. (Friday 6 March 2020; 20:59)

Re: Trough the rain (feat Kelly Prince and Joe) (93,206) (93,213) by MusicfanJ from Germany I do own the album (since the day of release). But somehow I almost forgot that remix. If I listen to Charmbracelet I usually stop the album with "BOTH". (Friday 6 March 2020; 20:52)

Trough the rain (feat Kelly Prince and Joe) (93,202) by MusicfanJ from Germany I just rediscovered this remix. Mariah truly is not only the queen of Christmas but also of remixes. I wish we could get another album with remixes [on] one CD and the other CD with happy sounds like Fantasy and retro 90ies style. Great double album for the summer. One can dream. After that I'm ready for the Jazz album. (Friday 6 March 2020; 15:31)

Re: AYNAF unreleased video (93,199) (93,200) by MusicfanJ from Germany Wow thanks for sharing. The way she looked in 94, like a real princess, so beautiful. I could watch her talking for hours. Lol. I wish we could see the whole video but the few scenes are also great. And then Fantasy-MC, that's the time [a] became a fan. So much beauty, so natural, that's the Mariah I love. Starpower 100%, the rollercoaster video is epic. If I think of all the unreleased stuff oh my, I want that all. I'm greedy if it comes to Mariah. Lol. (Friday 6 March 2020; 14:20)

Re: Spotlight (93,167) (93,169) by MusicfanJ from Germany Thanks for the link. I have the "Devotion" album and I really love her music. Great voice, great artist with class. How rare is that today. Didn't know that there's a new song out there. Fantastic. It's good to know that are still some new songs for grown-ups and not only for the school kids with the horrible beats that all sounds the same. There's also a new singer from UK, who sounds a bit like Amy Winehouse (forgot her name something with C?) who defenitly brings back the good old soul. (Wednesday 4 March 2020; 20:58)

Re: Sack the stylist (93,125) (93,135) by MusicfanJ from Germany "Her" style in the short clips [is] also not my taste. The stylist could really do better. Mariah with volumenius hair, classy dress or jeans is just gorgours and beautiful. But I do concentrate of the song. Lol. (Monday 2 March 2020; 10:37)

Re: Everything Fades Away (93,118) (93,126) by MusicfanJ from Germany I love EFA so much. One of her best songs ever. Agree the snippets are very enjoyable. Can't stop listening. That song is magical. Jojo was also great. (Sunday 1 March 2020; 19:18)

Re: Anyone else listen to E=MC2 more than TEOM? (93,086) (93,092) by MusicfanJ from Germany Love the rankings for the different moods. Perfect description. Yes Caution for the next morning. (Saturday 29 February 2020; 15:37)

Re: Non-single favourites (93,021) (93,030) by MusicfanJ from Germany 1. "Close my eyes" is the most listened one too. 2. Caution 3. Giving me life (Monday 24 February 2020; 17:18)

Re: The Blast (92,962) (92,968) by MusicfanJ from Germany Yup the same here. I think we all hate that pic. It's so weird. I also wonder what they still have about her, all the things. I don't wanna see it, but I also think Mariah should talk a little about it so that they can't "win". I thought that chapter is over. (Thursday 20 February 2020; 20:43)

Re: Alcohol (92,965) (92,966) by MusicfanJ from Germany Yes Bill that was so embarrassing to watch. I live in a wine region and to enjoy one or two classes of good wine is very normal. Of course not every day. But if I had a voice like Mariah I would drink as few as possible. To be on camera not sober during an award winning speech, you must have a little problem. I mean at the afterparty OK, but before? Just no. During the nightmare era it was clear that the clan of the Crustella witch were encouraging her "bad habits". You need real friends who will tell you the truth and more importantly like already mentioned you need to see your problem and want to change it. (Thursday 20 February 2020; 20:31)

Re: Mariah needs to recover her voice and stop touring (92,918) (92,920) by MusicfanJ from Germany "But there was a definite turning point between the last night of the Daydream tour and the promotion for Butterfly in 1997" that's what I think too. Something happened. Don't get me wrong, her voice during Butterfly was still phenomenel, but it seemed harder for her to hit her "special Mariah notes". During the Daydream tour she was singing like it's the easiest thing to do. I'm still overwhelmed when I listen to "Anytime you need a friend" from Tokyo. Out of this world. (Tuesday 18 February 2020; 12:33)

New Bond song (92,865) by MusicfanJ from Germany I love Bond songs (except the one with Madonna). I have just heard the new one. And I thought wouldn't it be cool, if Mariah will make a Bond theme song in the future? What do you think? (Friday 14 February 2020; 20:15)

Re: In The Fix (92,854) (92,864) by MusicfanJ from Germany Tough question. But I also think it's too much risk. I would prefer to try a healthy lifestyle plus vocal training. (Friday 14 February 2020; 20:10)

Re: The fans decline (92,814) (92,817) by MusicfanJ from Germany I also wish she would tell the truth about it. She will always be the voice no matter what happened. But if Mariah would talk about it the annoying rumours will stop. Funny side note, I dreamed about MC last night. I was visiting a concert of hers and it felt so real. Lol Mariah is the only artist I sometimes dream about. I think that tells a lot. (Wednesday 12 February 2020; 19:25)
