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

Re: Manchester (75,570) (75,579) by MusicfanJ from Germany I'm shocked again. Every month new horror news from France, UK, Germany and other countries. So sorry for all the innocent victims. That's one reason why I do miss the 90ies, it felt definitely more safe compared to nowadays. So sick of this. (Tuesday 23 May 2017; 12:12)

Re: Why do we die hards stick around? (75,558) (75,578) by MusicfanJ from Germany Mariah is too talented and precious to give up on her. I will always be thankful how she helped me with her music. A true inspiration, and I won't accept that Crustella with the allowing of MC is ruining this. It's like with a friend, if he or she has troubles you can't let him/her fall down. You're worried and trying to help. It's just sad that our worries aren't heard. Two years of this circus can't erase the wonderful last two decades. As I said there's still some hope that Mariah Carey will be back. But with the "empowerment sh*" I fear it won't happen soon. (Tuesday 23 May 2017; 12:00)

Re: Breakdown (75,516) (75,526) by MusicfanJ from Germany Breakdown really shows how perfect rnb and hip-hop can melt together. This song is perfection. A very smooth Mariah. For me her lyrics were never better than on the Butterfly album. (Also Daydream and Charmbracelet come close to it.) But the songs need time, I remember when I was almost disappointed after Daydream. I have to be in the mood too (for enjoying Butterfly.) What I love about it, that it still sounds new from the production. And "Whenever you call" is one of my favorite ballads. When she sings: "You can turn to me and cry, always understand that I, give you all I am inside" I swear, it's so hard to hold back tears, after listening that part. Only MC can do that.

Re: Media attention (75,514) (75,522) by MusicfanJ from Germany Crustella doesn't care of charity. You need to have class to do social things. All the fakeness is making me sick. When Mariah was at the camp in 95 or 96 she really touched my heart. She was so natural, humble and super sweet to the kids. You could tell it wasn't a show, it was real. I never saw a woman more adorable than her at that time. Mariah needs to go back to NY, I have a feeling that not only the circus is poison to her, also California is not her place. She should stay away from plastic/fake Hollywood. If the circus won't stop she is slowly but clearly destroying herself as an artist and more sadly as a person. Now it's not too late to change it. And something must change. Her lambily do more care of her than Crustella and Co. ever will. (Monday 22 May 2017; 14:24)

Re: Tanaka/MC dinner tonight (75,480) (75,500) by MusicfanJ from Germany I've read all the messages here and I can only agree with all of you. Mara you're right, Crustella can also be called Steala. She's really stealing everything from Mariah. Everything what was/is so loveable and classy. The latest Tanaka pic is ridiculous. It's clear the kid or Crustella are behind that "idea". I know it sounds mean but it's hard to recognize Mariah. Thanks to Brat Ratner that he introduced the fake/devils-clan to Mariah. In the past Mariah wouldn't even look at people like that for a second. Trashy wannabes. That MC is also paying for this mess, I just can't understand. (Sunday 21 May 2017; 20:01)

Re: Too much like right? (75,443) (75,444) by MusicfanJ from Germany Yes, could be true. But it's sad to fill time with such things. It's all so annoying with the team around Mariah lately. When will it stop? Everytime I hope Mariah wakes up and creates a new team with only professionals. And then we get new stuff that seems developed for a soap-opera. Why? Her team only wants money and doesn't care of Mariah and the lambily. (Saturday 20 May 2017; 19:38)

Re: That soda ad (75,422) (75,427) by MusicfanJ from Germany Lol I know my English isn't perfect too, but I had to laugh at the "great full". A "social media manager" should know better. Haha. Please can somebody take this kid to school instead of giving her bartending lessons and using her for sending selfish and boring pics and text messages. Mariah would never do that. I remember when Mariah started using Twitter; all her messages were so sweet and you could tell is was 100% Mariah herself because of many reasons. I saved some messages from early Twitter because it was so cool to read real MC messages. (Saturday 20 May 2017; 17:50)

Re: Second favorite artists (75,394) (75,413) by MusicfanJ from Germany Michael Jackson, Stevie Wonder, Alicia Keys, Ella Fitzgerald, Ben (soul singer), Melody Gardot (Saturday 20 May 2017; 14:33)

Re: Ages? (75,382) (75,405) by MusicfanJ from Germany That's true I've always loved "Long ago." I remember the time Daydream was on heavy repeat all day and night haha, and I was so into Fantasy and the ballads. But Long Ago showed a fresh new tune and another side musically of Mariah. Her lyrics are so poetic, love the beginning of the song you mentioned. (Saturday 20 May 2017; 11:43)

Article: The diva goes casual (75,376) by MusicfanJ from Germany I just read the article and saw the pics. Nothing against casual, but to dress like Crustella isn't casual. When I saw the first pic I thought ok, but I could see a big handbag and a female hand behind MC and I already knew who it was. Lol. The second pic was the prove that (surprise) the black leather jacket was also there. Can we get more family (Mariah/Nick and the kids) pics please? Because it was nice to see her without "the manager". I think I'm not alone with this thought. (Friday 19 May 2017; 20:01)

Re: Signature song (75,318) (75,358) by MusicfanJ from Germany It's really hard if not impossible to name one. Like someone mentioned here, Mariah has so many and a view of categories like "bestselling" or "artistically signature" shows it even more. I would pick Hero, My All and Fantasy. Also in Europe she's still very known and praised for "Without you", which even was a number one back then. (Friday 19 May 2017; 11:38)

Re: Ages? (75,316) (75,341) by MusicfanJ from Germany 32. Right the "social media manager" needs to know. Lol. (Thursday 18 May 2017; 19:57)

Re: Everything Fades Away (75,311) (75,340) by MusicfanJ from Germany I can't believe it too. This song is pure magic, never heard so much emotion in one song. And I love the voice of Will Downing, he gives really an extra bonus to this wonderful song. (Thursday 18 May 2017; 19:52)

Re: "Someday" unheard demo plus G#5 (1986 demo tape) (75,303) (75,317) by MusicfanJ from Germany Oh yes please, the demo sounds fantastic. I can only imagine how good the material sounds which was never released but recorded. We want it all. Would be the best present ever. (Thursday 18 May 2017; 14:10)

Re: The ultimate Mariah Carey song poll (75,271) (75,278) by MusicfanJ from Germany My choice of this three is "Vision of love". (Tuesday 16 May 2017; 12:45)

Re: Mariah and LA Reid (75,253) (75,259) by MusicfanJ from Germany 100% agree with you. If the number 2. is happening (kicking the circus) we should celebrate this day as a global lamb/MC-day. There's hope (said it like Leia in Star Wars). (Monday 15 May 2017; 19:15)

Mariah's debut album (75,235) by MusicfanJ from Germany I'm still blown away by her debut album. Also some parts has the 80ies early 90ies elements (love it), the production was perfection and 100% on point. In '90 it was like boom here's the new superstar, and she won't go. My mother bought the record immediately after listening to "Vision of love". So I guess she influenced me then when I was little. My first cassette album was Daydream. Anyway I wish she would work with professionals again. I'm trying to keep excited for the new label. Hopefully it brings "fresh wind" and new inspiration. (Sunday 14 May 2017; 18:14)

Re: So guys got married, first dance (75,207) (75,222) by MusicfanJ from Germany Congratulations to you Jade. Your avatar is beautiful. How cool is it that you and your husband choose "License to kill". I love that song since I first heard it. And "Melt away" is such a wonderful song. Perfect combination. (Saturday 13 May 2017; 21:29)

Re: How 650 million can get messed up (75,201) (75,219) by MusicfanJ from Germany She could quit Crustella and Co., sell all her useless houses/apartments/cars and go to her wonderful penthouse in NY and enjoy the luxury there. Mariah belongs to NY, the wannabe "Hollywood people" aren't good for her (well I guess for nobody). For me it always seems the more cash somebody has, the less happier the person seems because of many reasons. Of course not everybody. But there are so many rich people with depression and so on. Mariah has earned enough, she should start to live a good life with all the financial blessings without demonstrating "look at me, I'm rich". I wanna see her like "look at me I have everything I dreamed of, but to have free time with happiness is the true luxury". (Saturday 13 May 2017; 19:29)

Re: LA Reid replacement (75,189) (75,195) by MusicfanJ from Germany I can't imagine that Tommy will be involved somehow, but who knows? Is it official with Sylvia Rhone? I just googled her, and I like the results. I know everyone was always praising L.A. Reid, but I think a new team would be great for Mariah. And I hope she will feel comfortable again that she can let go the Russian Kadashians. Just dreaming. (Friday 12 May 2017; 21:35)

Re: Article: Mariah Carey visits cosmetic surgery centre (75,175) (75,183) by MusicfanJ from Germany I hate to see that she visits such a center. Even if it's only for info or whatever. Crustella shouldn't be her role model. I wish Mariah would get some "help" mentally. Don't get me wrong, but I think she needs a healthy way of life without toxic people instead of paying for superficial "treatments". Women with class doesn't get old they mature. And Mariah Carey doesn't need to impress kids and the Hollywood circus. She needs inner peace again and like I said a thousand times before true friends. The showbiz was toxic for so many talented people but if you're in it for 27 years you should know who's a friend and who's a snake/witch. Hmm Mariah please go on a real vacation with no media, meet real interesting people and just have a good time. It makes everybody more beautiful then any center can do. (Friday 12 May 2017; 14:12)

Re: Songs you wish Mariah would do (75,137) (75,144) by MusicfanJ from Germany 1. You and I (Stevie Wonder) 2. The Rose (Bete Midler) 3. You're not alone (Michael Jackson) 4. Don't explain (Billie Holiday) 5. The way we were (Barbra Streisand) 6. Another piece of my heart (Janis Joplin) All songs on an album not just live. (Thursday 11 May 2017; 12:12)

Re: Songs that you love that aren't fan favorites (75,132) (75,143) by MusicfanJ from Germany I love "To The floor" too. I've always thought it could be on Glitter because of the nice dance groove. Mariah and Nelly are sounding so good together. (Thursday 11 May 2017; 11:54)

Re: Everything Fades Away (75,079) (75,095) by MusicfanJ from Germany That's true, Daydream and Butterfly are diamonds of music. I wish Mariah would do an album with a combination of those two. Emotional ballads, rnb with quality, hip-hop elements and one jazz song as a bonus. (Tuesday 9 May 2017; 13:14)

Re: Questions / fan favorites (75,077) (75,094) by MusicfanJ from Germany Thanks for the info, I've always wondered what she said in the remix too. Now I can enjoy that part with the right words. (Tuesday 9 May 2017; 13:06)
