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

Merry Christmas (80,062) by MusicfanJ from Germany I wish all the members of MCA a Merry Christmas and a good, peaceful time. I always enjoy reading your thoughts and opinions (well most of you). So now I'll listen to MC2. Gets better every year. (Sunday 24 December 2017; 15:26)

Re: Setlist (80,036) (80,037) by MusicfanJ from Germany I would also love "Make it happen" and "It's like that" for an opener. And I think "Hero" is always loved by most of the people and the lambs as a classic MC song. Maybe she surprises with another song, I'm so proud of her that she's doing it again. I wish her the best for the new year, it's great that 2017 ends so positive for her. (Saturday 23 December 2017; 19:36)

Re: Take 2 NYE (80,013) (80,021) by MusicfanJ from Germany I also think it's a great step. She'll show everyone that she can own the stage with a wonderful performance. I'm sure she will be well prepared and with her new team she can bounce back. Good news. (Saturday 23 December 2017; 11:20)

Re: Social media (80,002) (80,020) by MusicfanJ from Germany Yup, there's a noticeable change. Thank God and her new team. The social media with the "circus team" were a nightmare. Now everything looks fine and professional like you said. Thumbs up. (Saturday 23 December 2017; 11:12)

Re: Interesting, try this (79,987) (79,991) by MusicfanJ from Germany Both songs are so great. Listening to LC now, I'll never get tired of it. AIWFCIY and LC, no one make songs like this anymore. There's a reason there are so many covers of it, but only the original will stay forever. I remember in school a classmate borrowed my Mariah MC cd and she never gave it back, because she loved AIWFCIY lol. So I bought the album again. To see that song charted so high again makes me very happy. I'm sure Mariah is very proud of it. (Thursday 21 December 2017; 17:26)

Re: AIWFCIY #9 Hot 100 (79,974) (79,980) by MusicfanJ from Germany Stacey, how sweet that your kid is singing to it. Good taste. I noticed that a lot of kids do like MC. (Wednesday 20 December 2017; 11:57)

Re: All I Want For Christmas live at St John 1994 (79,972) (79,978) by MusicfanJ from Germany Licia, I had the same thought a few months ago. When the greatest ones are gone the record companies only have money on their mind. The should release it next year and all the other fan favorites. I wonder as well why Tommy or Columbia didn't release the concert long time ago. The same with the unreleased material. The lambily are waiting. By the way Licia, I heard AIWFCIY yesterday while shopping, on the Christmas market and later on the radio. I hope you got spared from it. Haha. "Santa Clause is coming to town" is on heavy rotation too. Isn't it nice? (Wednesday 20 December 2017; 11:52)

Re: 3rd Christmas album (79,936) (79,937) by MusicfanJ from Germany Good point Marissa. I think the same way. And there are three albums if you add the "AIWFCIY" album for the animated movie. I'm happy with MC and MC2. Both are perfect for the most wonderful time of the year. She's already the queen of Christmas so I'd prefer a new "regular" album. (Sunday 17 December 2017; 14:19)

Re: Your own country’s chart (79,916) (79,918) by MusicfanJ from Germany Congratulations to the UK. Number 2 is great. The 90ies were the last time I checked the charts too. Or in 2003. The streaming worldwide seems to go up further on. (Saturday 16 December 2017; 15:05)

Re: Your own country’s chart (79,900) (79,906) by MusicfanJ from Germany Today on the charts in Germany Mariah's at number 7. That's pretty good. And the song is playing everywhere no matter where you go. (Friday 15 December 2017; 23:09)

Re: The Grinch (79,884) (79,893) by MusicfanJ from Germany I'm happy that the Grinch can not steel Christmas anymore. Last year Mariah's AIWFCIY was the most played song on December 24 in Germany. Read it today in an article very positive about Mariah's streaming record after 24 years. I wonder if she can break her own record this year and get even more streaming clicks on the Christmas days. Would be a nice gift for the queen of Christmas. (Friday 15 December 2017; 10:53)

Re: Another new pic (79,872) (79,880) by MusicfanJ from Germany Just beautiful. She looks fresh and very classy. (Thursday 14 December 2017; 20:37)

Re: Most searched artist of 2017 (79,871) (79,879) by MusicfanJ from Germany It's because all the lambs google her every day. Including me. Haha. Honestly she's a living icon, no matter what others think about her. What fascinates me mostly, is that she became that icon at a very young age. That's rare. Go Mariah and keep shining. (Thursday 14 December 2017; 20:36)

Re: Social media / new team (79,869) (79,878) by MusicfanJ from Germany Completely agree with all. The new team seems to know how to manage and prepare. I'm so glad, that we got a happy end this year. I mean who knew just two months ago, that the needed change of her team will happen soon. And it's good that no one around her seems to look like a freaking circus clown anymore. If I think of the bizarre pics from I don't want to say the name (like in the Harry Potter movie). By the way I was streaming a lot today. I think Mariah can reach number 5 next week easily. (Thursday 14 December 2017; 20:29)

Re: Golden Globe (79,815) (79,817) by MusicfanJ from Germany Congratulations. I'm so happy for her. It's a well deserved nominee. Mariah can really celebrate this year's end. Her sold out concerts in Paris and London, the Globe nomination and of course the ultimate Christmas song on the charts, that's what I call festive. The sparkling in her eyes is also back, it's good to see her happy again. (Tuesday 12 December 2017; 12:29)

Article: Mariah Carey - Daydream (79,763) by MusicfanJ from Germany This article is excellent. Every word is well-written. Mariah was setting a high with Daydream which is so unique in every way. After all the records and combining rnb, pop and hip-hop we got Butterfly a next masterpiece and fan favorite. "Looking in" is still overwhelming. The same with "I am free" and "Melt away". And "Fantasy" with "One sweet day" made me a fan for life. (Sunday 10 December 2017; 16:55)

Mariah's hommage for Jonny Hallyday (79,762) by MusicfanJ from Germany What I love about Mariah she always gives tribute to the real musicians. Last year I cried when she sang "When you believe" in concert, now I see this and she gets me again. There's no female singer in the whole world who makes me feel so emotional. By the way she looks like an angel in that gold dress. So much better than the "costumes" last year. (Sunday 10 December 2017; 14:49)

Re: Beacon Theatre DVD (79,756) (79,760) by MusicfanJ from Germany I would love a Christmas dvd too. Yes we need more live material on dvd. It's time for a new one. I watched some clips from her concert yesterday in Paris. Just wow, she looked and sounded wonderful. I think she sounded better than in NY, maybe she feels better now, I mean she was still recovering at the first two shows at the Beacon. (Sunday 10 December 2017; 14:07)

Mariah in Paris (79,748) by MusicfanJ from Germany I'm tired of the "Andrew topic", but I love the post from Hilton. Anyway I just checked Mariah's instagram and the pics with her kids are lovely as always. She reminded me of the 99 MC, she looks fresh and beautiful. I wish the French lambs and everybody who will be in Paris tonight a great show and a wonderful time. To see her live is really the best. (Saturday 9 December 2017; 10:51)

Flashback interview (79,739) by MusicfanJ from Germany I just wanted to share this old but gold interview with you. It was before her career took off. Back at the day where she hoped for "some success". I love her speaking voice so much. At the end she said: Thank you darlings. Now we have 2017 and wish her the best. It's good to see her happy again. (Friday 8 December 2017; 19:39)

Re: Undeniable receipts (79,717) (79,729) by MusicfanJ from Germany I always loved the fact that Mariah is multi-racial. This beautiful woman has the best from "both sides". For me she was always a soul-rnb singer and when she came out, wasn't there this article which said: Another white girl trying to sing black? That's so dumb. I mean I can imagine it was never easy to please everybody especially the music biz people at the beginning of her career. I think everyone is sometimes pigeonholed from others but at the end those people doesn't count. I love Mariah for who she is and it's phenomenal that she sounds so good in every music genre. (Friday 8 December 2017; 12:14)

Re: Edward (79,663) (79,665) by MusicfanJ from Germany Yes, it's good to read the description/point of view of the concert. Edward you lucky one, to see Mariah in NY. What a nice way to start the holiday season. Was the set list the same than last year? Well, except for "The Star". (Tuesday 5 December 2017; 17:15)

Re: "Charmbracelet" anniversary (79,627) (79,642) by MusicfanJ from Germany I would also like to hear the "Yours" version with JT. But I remember the same thing like Licia said. At that time, Justin didn't want to release/promote the song as a featuring guest because Mariah seemed not so "hip" after the Glitter thing. Oh "little" Justin was so wrong with this decision, not nice from him. So I understand while Mariah ruled the charts with TEOM again, she didn't feel the need to release the version. Charmbracelet will always be a special album for me. The often mentioned lyrics are pure Mariah, they are so poetic. "Lullaby", "Yours", "I only wanted", "Clown" and "Bringin' on the heartbreak" are my favorites. And I love the message of "Trough the rain". (Monday 4 December 2017; 20:32)

Mariah and the Christmas tree (79,634) by MusicfanJ from Germany Come on, how sweet is this? Mariah looks so good, the new pics posted on instagram are just beautiful. MC with the decorated Christmas tree, she's shining again. (Monday 4 December 2017; 14:19)

Re: World AIDS Day setlist? (79,600) (79,604) by MusicfanJ from Germany Hi Matty, here's a link. Enjoy. (Friday 1 December 2017; 22:34)
