About Rashidi Rahim Rick from Malaysia: Every Moment I'm Alive Until The End Of Time.

You're Mine (Eternal) (98,622) by Rashidi Rahim Rick from Malaysia I always thought this song could have been a hit song, or maybe a moderate hit song, if only Mariah perform this song during the song's promotional appearances. In 2014, Mariah made several promo appearances for this song and album, and yet she never performed this song. She went to 106 and Park, MTV First, David Letterman, Today Show, World Music Awards, and NBC Special At Home In Concert. Mariah even went to the Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon just to throw money on him (a prank, of course, to congratulate him in his show) without having to perform nor giving interview for the album. If only she took the effort to perform this song live on all those appearances then this song would definitely have more chances to be a hit song. Such a waste of opportunity. The main reason why We Belong Together became a big hit in 2005 was because she took the opportunity to sing live on all the appearances. The only live performance she did for You're Mine (Eternal) was at BET Honors. (Sunday 19 September 2021; 05:45)

Re: Something big is coming (98,600) (98,602) by Rashidi Rahim Rick from Malaysia Mariah would announce her new film role with Dwayne Johnson and she would be singing 6 new songs for the soundtrack. Just for laughs. (Monday 13 September 2021; 04:48)

Mariah and Ryan Reynolds in romantic comedy movie (98,551) by Rashidi Rahim Rick from Malaysia It's about time for Mariah to act in a high budget romantic comedy movie with Ryan Reynolds. Mariah can sing the soundtrack too. (Thursday 26 August 2021; 12:39)

Re: The Meaning of Mariah audio book error (98,293) (98,303) by Rashidi Rahim Rick from Malaysia Maybe she disown I Don't Wanna Cry as her number one single, so technically I'll Be There is her 5th number one. Even in #1's album non-US edition, the one that I bought, I Don't Wanna Cry is not included. (Thursday 1 July 2021; 10:51)

Time Of Your Life (98,076) by Rashidi Rahim Rick from Malaysia Don't you guys think it's the right time for Mariah to go to the studio and make a full version of the song and relase it now. I mean like right now. The last time Mariah ever released a hot uptempo song as a lead single was in 2009 with Obsessed. She missed a big chance by not releasing You Don't Know What To Do (or Thirsty) for the Me I Am Mariah era, and A No No for Caution era. Stop releasing mid tempo ballad (ala We Belong Together) for the first single in every new project (You're Mine, Infinity, With You/GTFO, Save The Day) because it clearly shows that the formula didn't work. Time of Your Life would be the best single, plus she can make a hot video with good storyline. Mariah could also bring back Agent M vs Bianca in the video. (Friday 4 June 2021; 01:52)

Re: I just want (97,850) (97,853) by Rashidi Rahim Rick from Malaysia Totally agree. I want Mariah to give us powerful vocals again like Mine Again, Circles, Emotions, belt belt and belt. Enough with the whispering. It's time for a change. I could care less if she can sing the song live or not because she can always resort to lipsync and prerecorded track, as she has always done since 1998. (Sunday 18 April 2021; 04:50)

Re: Best opening line (97,812) (97,818) by Rashidi Rahim Rick from Malaysia When I was 16, the year Honey was released, I really thought she said "There you can have me when you want me." Then after I bought the album and read the lyrics and watch all the live performances, only I realized she sings "Honey you can have me when you want me." (Wednesday 14 April 2021; 05:30)

Honey live at Top of The Pops 1997 (97,438) by Rashidi Rahim Rick from Malaysia I wonder why until now Mariah's team has not uploaded the official live performance of Honey at the Top Of The Pops in 1997. Almost all of Mariah's performances at that show in the 90's have been uploaded at Mariah's YouTube channel. To me, it was such a great performance and the only performance where Mase made an appearance. Mariah's voice and tone was almost identical to the album version. (Monday 22 February 2021; 10:26)

Re: Last Night a DJ Saved My Life - songs about Derek (97,382) (97,397) by Rashidi Rahim Rick from Malaysia We Belong Together, Mine Again, I Wish You Knew, Circles, Don't Forget About Us are all about Derek Jeter. In the video of We Belong Together, the male actor Wentworth Miller was chosen due to him being biracial just like Derek. He even looks like Derek. (Thursday 18 February 2021; 01:53)

Butterfly era unreleased (97,068) by Rashidi Rahim Rick from Malaysia Mariah took her time writing and recording the Butterfly album from 1996 until middle 1997. I was wondering if there any unreleased songs from that period. I wish for at least one unreleased song because I love her voice in that album. (Friday 1 January 2021; 06:29)

Where's Ari? (96,844) by Rashidi Rahim Rick from Malaysia I just love how Mariah said it. How I wish Mariah would donned a ponytail though. (Sunday 6 December 2020; 01:01)

Re: Kelly Clarkson (96,774) (96,776) by Rashidi Rahim Rick from Malaysia I was thinking the same. I'm glad I'm not the only one. (Thursday 3 December 2020; 11:05)

Re: What if Mariah never married Tommy in 1993 (93,690) (93,692) by Rashidi Rahim Rick from Malaysia Hey Tijl, if you don't want to join the conversation then buzz off. Nobody's asking for your opinion. This is Mariah's messageboard, and every fan has the right to talk whatever they want. (Saturday 18 April 2020; 14:19)

Re: What if Mariah never married Tommy in 1993 (93,686) by Rashidi Rahim Rick from Malaysia The real question is, what if Mariah never married Tommy in 1993? Imagine Mariah as a runaway bride just like her video We Belong Together. She would be more successful because more people would acknowledge her talent, instead of know her as big boss' wife. I'm sure she would win all the Grammy nominations in 1996 and she even can be in movies too (Mariah said that she received many acting offers before the divorce). Butterfly album will be her another diamond album because Tommy did not hold any grudge against her and the album consists of four #1's; Honey, Butterfly, Breakdown and My All. She can marry Derek Jeter in 1998 and also act in the secret agent movie Double O Soul and the movie would become a big blockbuster movie in 1999. She can retire from music world in 1999 after releasing her #1's compilation album in 1998. Rainbow album never exist and so other albums after that. (Saturday 18 April 2020; 02:55)

Re: New album title (93,651) (93,652) by Rashidi Rahim Rick from Malaysia Sweet soul odyssey baby, when I close my eyes, you come and you take me, on and on and on. I always sing along to chorus of Fantasy when someone said of that title. (Thursday 16 April 2020; 15:23)

Re: New album title (93,640) (93,649) by Rashidi Rahim Rick from Malaysia "White Heart" would be the best album title. It can mean the purest of soul. Janet Jackson's new album title is Black Diamond. (Thursday 16 April 2020; 03:37)

Your Girl should have been a single (93,626) by Rashidi Rahim Rick from Malaysia Your Girl should have been the single replacing Shake It Off. I'm never a fan of that song. Too similar to Usher's song. And Mariah's vocals was too mundane and not energetic. It's like she's singing while lying down. Unlike Your Girl where she sounds vibrant, youthful, and the vocals reminding me to Fantasy, Dreamlover and Heartbreaker. Too bad the song is too short without a bridge. (Tuesday 14 April 2020; 13:37)

Do You Know Where You're Going To (93,548) by Rashidi Rahim Rick from Malaysia What if this song was picked as the single instead of I Still Believe. Imagine Mariah dress up like Marilyn Monroe and singing this song to the army just like in the I Still Believe video. More appropriate and meaningful. And the ending high notes are very impressive and inspiring too. The only problem was that this song was also coincidentally covered by another singer in her album at the same time Mariah's album was released. Such a waste opportunity. (Thursday 9 April 2020; 05:32)

When I Saw You - romantic comedy thriller movie (93,498) by Rashidi Rahim Rick from Malaysia If Mariah could act in her own movie using titles from all her songs, what would it be? I would say When I Saw You would be perfect as romantic comedy thriller type of movie, with the poster of Mariah holding a saw. And the tagline "I will hunt you down". The plot of the movie would be Mariah taking revenge on her cheating husband/boyfriend using a saw as a weapon. (Saturday 4 April 2020; 11:53)

She dedicated the song to dembabies (93,441) by Rashidi Rahim Rick from Malaysia I wish she would give a little shout out to the frontliners in this time of situation. Still love her though. (Monday 30 March 2020; 08:15)

Re: Acapella / piano for the benefit special (93,382) (93,384) by Rashidi Rahim Rick from Malaysia She needs to sing live and give whatever voice she had left and just go through it. She can lower the key, and adjust the arrangement to suit her current voice. I know she can do it. She doesn't have to sing like the record, just take her time with the song and sing. The return of the voice. (Thursday 26 March 2020; 16:02)

Acapella / piano for the benefit special (93,381) by Rashidi Rahim Rick from Malaysia I would suggest for Mariah to sing Through The Rain (acapella or piano version) for the Elton John's Virtual All-Star Benefit Special. Imagine Mariah wearing tank top and jeans and belting the final chorus of Through The Rain. It would go viral. (Thursday 26 March 2020; 14:12)

Don't wear princess gown at Grammy Awards (93,343) by Rashidi Rahim Rick from Malaysia Just my observation, if you wear princess kind of dress (big skirt) to the Grammy, you might get snubbed completely. Mariah wore one for her performance in 1996, she lost all her nominations. Rihanna lost all her nominations for Grammy 2017. Finally, Ariana joined the group for Grammy 2020. All of them have one similarity; they wore princess big gown kind of dress. Just for laughs. Don't take this seriously. (Sunday 22 March 2020; 06:15)

Honey at MTV Video Music Awards 1997 (93,276) by Rashidi Rahim Rick from Malaysia It's such a waste that Mariah didn't perform Honey when she was making her appearance as presenter at the award show. The show was held about one week right after the single was released. It would be great to see her singing Honey with that two-piece black ensemble. She looked phenomenal that night. (Friday 13 March 2020; 14:33)

#Beautiful should have been the 19th (93,027) by Rashidi Rahim Rick from Malaysia I always feel like a big lost that #Beautiful did not become the 19th No 1. In 2013, Mariah was at her beauty peak, body peak, fashion peak, and American Idol did help her to remain popular as ever. The song itself was catchy and fun and became instant favorite to every radio station and online streaming. Such a waste. (Monday 24 February 2020; 15:51)
