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

Re: Petition (69,674) (69,683) by MusicfanJ from Germany Completely agree. It's too much. It almost seems on that insta-pic like she's topless. What is she thinking? I have no clue. I'm sure one day "Miss Monroe" will not be happy of those looks. Is it so hard to dress classy and sexy? Don't think so. Even the outfits during Glitter were better.

Re: Mariah should read her own press (69,237) (69,682) by MusicfanJ from Germany Yes, it's obvious that she doesn't read the press. If Mariah would read just one of the latest articles and the comments it would be a shock for her. I can understand that at one point a superstar won't pay attention to it. But somebody of her "team" should tell her that her image is "not so good" at the moment. And they should work on it at least a little bit. Sadly her empower manager and Co. are destroying it in a way I never thought it would be possible. I remember the days almost every press was positive and friendly about the sensational singer Mariah. (Thursday 8 December 2016; 20:41)

Re: Her recent thing? (69,199) (69,221) by MusicfanJ from Germany I didn't watch the complete episode, but what I've seen I didn't like. Every MTV special in the past was fun to watch (Mariah Around The World, Number Ones where she had guests, Rockumentary) just to name a few. Yes she's a grown-up woman who should known better. Most of the people who work for her are fake. Nobody is telling her the truth. I won't watch the up-coming episodes. The thing with the wedding dress was ridiculous. The dancer who told her it's all about t... and boobs. Does he know a normal concert is about singing and some classy entertaining? I can't believe this whole stuff.

Re: Tanaka (69,193) (69,218) by MusicfanJ from Germany I don't know what to think about Bryan Tanaka. He seems nice and of course he's a handsome good-looking guy. Maybe he has a little crush on Mariah, that's nothing which is hard to believe. But for a "real relationship" with a superstar I'm not sure if he's ready for that. As I said so many times before I just want Mariah to be happy. If he's the reason that she smiles from her heart again, well then I'm fine with it. (Wednesday 7 December 2016; 19:18)

Re: Mariah's world (69,163) (69,172) by MusicfanJ from Germany I watched some "scenes" on YouTube but I had to stop it. Where once was magic we have now E-Entertainment. (Tuesday 6 December 2016; 20:56)

Re: Stelle is here to stay (69,166) (69,170) by MusicfanJ from Germany Tonight I'll get a nightmare. If Mariah needs a yes-man ok, but couldn't she find that in someone more professional where nobody gets embarrassed? (Tuesday 6 December 2016; 20:19)

Re: Two videos (69,134) (69,169) by MusicfanJ from Germany I can't believe it too. Just watched the "Joy to the world" video. Mariah was so loveable. This is such a fun video, when she walks with the fake-fur sign, on the plane, with her background singers and Josephine. I love every shot in this clip. And when you watch the version in the church it's truly heartbreaking if you compare it to now. Mariah looks beautiful on the latest pics but why must she always play that sex symbol? She's not Marylin Monroe. And the people who are around her, I don't trust them for a second. Her manager can be praised endlessly, but this woman scares me. Lol. I just hope I'm wrong with it.

Christmas songs (69,084) by MusicfanJ from Germany Which ones are your favorites? Every time I listen to "God rest ye merry gentleman", "Holy Night" and "One child" I really get emotional. The way she sings it touches my heart on a level which nobody will ever can musically. And I still keep on rockin' with AIWFCIY. "When Christmas comes" and all the songs produced with Mr. Shaiman are a truly gift to the fans. If you listen to it you can dream to that melody and just enjoy the Christmas season.

Re: Freak show (69,075) (69,082) by MusicfanJ from Germany I will always love 90ies Mariah. It's a shame she made one record after another and got ignored by the Grammys. It still bothers me when I think of it. (Monday 5 December 2016; 12:16)

Re: Freak show (69,031) (69,035) by MusicfanJ from Germany I'm afraid too. I'm so fed up with the "headlines" that she makes today. Of course she could "retire" and just enjoy the money without doing anything in the musicbiz or should I say showbiz. However what I can't understand is why is she ok with that image. Doesn't she know it (what the media says and writes) or is it so simple that she doesn't care? Or she thinks this is the modern way to sell anything? All my hopes are for 2017. I try to say something positive but it's not easy. Please no realityshow, please real artistry. I'll watch "Anytime you need a friend" the video. That song is simply from heaven sung by our loved and imperfect angel. (Sunday 4 December 2016; 0:26)

Favorite AIWFCIY live performance (69,003) by MusicfanJ from Germany Hello everybody. I just wanted to know if you have a favorite live version of Mariah's AIWFCIY. Mine is the one from Tokyo during the Daydream tour. The way she sings just amazing, the way she looks (sweet and beautiful) and the way she shakes and dances to it (so adorable). There was no reason not to love her. Daydream MC rocked the world. (Friday 2 December 2016; 20:19)

Re: Beach picture (68,992) (69,002) by MusicfanJ from Germany You said 100% what I was thinking. The diamonds need to go. I mean on the beach. Please no. It's true every woman looks older with it. A causal style makes so much younger. I believe all the admiration of the jewelry comes because of her idol Marylin Monroe. But that was another time, the 50ies and 60ies are over. I always loved her speaking voice too. Don't know what to think of the champagne. (Friday 2 December 2016; 20:08)

Re: Mariah Carey these days (68,939) (68,952) by MusicfanJ from Germany Musically Mariah will always be my number one. I just wish from my heart that she's happy. If Bryan Tanaka is the one who makes her happy great. I just hope the bad press will end soon. She doesn't need that. Our butterfly will come back stronger than ever, well one day. (Thursday 1 December 2016; 21:44)

Re: Where did she go? (68,912) (68,937) by MusicfanJ from Germany Isn't it crazy? I had the same thought a few days ago. The picture of Mariah at the piano is gorgous. This is the Mariah I always looked up to. Imagine this 90ies MC could have looked into the future. She wouldn't be happy. The showbiz is making the best of the best confused and lonely. (Thursday 1 December 2016; 18:21)

Re: Mariah's World (68,876) (68,910) by MusicfanJ from Germany Yes, where is the artist? The times are hard for a fan. I don't want a "docu-series". I want new quality music or if no music then please no more of this circus. Maybe Mariah is in love with this guy or just need someone. In some way I'm sorry for James Packer. I never saw a chemistry between them. Mr. Tanaka got the jackpot, I hope he can handle this and will act like a gentleman and not like a "thirsty" boy. (Thursday 1 December 2016; 12:11)

Re: Hypocrite (68,869) (68,875) by MusicfanJ from Germany You're right. My first thought: Oh no. My second: This could be from the Honey part 2 video in 2016 if Crustella would be the director. (Thursday 1 December 2016; 0:44)

Re: Tanaka, Cruella and show (68,865) (68,871) by MusicfanJ from Germany Somehow I think if Mr. Mottola see this he will laugh or be shocked. I never liked Tommy but compared to these people there's a big difference. Since Mariah has this management her image is getting more and more worse. I can't believe that she is happy with it. And why the bra pics nearly every week. What is she thinking? I'm worried and where is "Miss Mariah Carey". I want her back. All this stuff is not healthy and the media is already making fun of it to say it nicely. The song "Miss you most at Christmas time" gets a new meaning. Really sad. (Thursday 1 December 2016; 0:38)

Re: Can somebody explain to me (68,782) (68,787) by MusicfanJ from Germany Completely agree. I think it's great that Mariah isn't a typical business woman as you said. That's one thing I love about her. Those people aren't artists usually. Mariah should only focus on her music and be creative. She's so talented and is really blessed with that. She has nothing to prove anymore. I just can't understand why she won't hire a good management. Every little singer/actress has professionals for the business stuff. Like someone said here before a friend/lamb is never a good choice for this position. Can you image Mariah during Daydream tour and interviews at that time and then Stella around her. Lol. No way. (Tuesday 29 November 2016; 17:10)

Re: Randy (68,755) (68,780) by MusicfanJ from Germany I although [also?] love the fact that Mariah's voice sounds so different on nearly every album. It's very interesting. Most singers sounds the same, I mean the voice stays the same. You're right Mandy, every lamb/fan can tell from what year and album a single or song is just because of the style Mariah sings it. (Tuesday 29 November 2016; 14:13)

Re: Can somebody explain to me (68,776) (68,779) by MusicfanJ from Germany But even very smart people can make wrong decisions. I know a lot of smart people who make the worst decisions in life. Of course I don't know Stella either but there isn't one thing that I like about her. If Mariah only choose her to have fun or whatever I just don't understand it. I want to trust Mariah's instinct in business but nowadays it's hard for somebody who follows her career as a fan since 21 years. (Tuesday 29 November 2016; 14:01)

Re: Can somebody explain to me (68,764) (68,778) by MusicfanJ from Germany The master plan of Crustella seems to be: 1. Make money as much as possible by working for Mariah 2. Get her daughter and relatives 15 minutes of fame by posting ridiculous pics with a superstar 3. Destroy the image of MC to get publicity like a Kadashian (maybe she thinks that's the only way to stay "relevant" and sell music) 4. Have a good time and fun 24/7 by hanging out with a grown-up woman who says she's eternally 12 As you can imagine I have no idea too what others see in that manager/woman. (Tuesday 29 November 2016; 13:50)

Re: Randy (68,725) (68,741) by MusicfanJ from Germany I remember when I first heard Honey back in 97 I was so surprised. After hearing the whole album I thought how her voice changed. I had to play it 3 times and then I felt in love with this cd. After Daydream what really happened? Was is because of the stress in private and business? I wish Mariah would tell us but maybe it's too bad to be told. (Monday 28 November 2016; 15:05)

Mariah's AIWFCIY is on radio rotation (68,719) by MusicfanJ from Germany I just came home and started the radio and Mariah was playing with the ultimate Christmas song. For me the season is officially here. I love MC and MCIIY so much, both are just Mariah at her best. So please no more drama for at least 4 weeks. (Sunday 27 November 2016; 16:46)

Re: Mariah was pretty open (68,651) (68,660) by MusicfanJ from Germany I understand what you mean. Of course nobody can always show the real self at every time if you are so famous like Mariah is. But I'm so tired of this "diva" and luxury thing. She's so much more than this. And a lot of people don't know, that makes me sad. Is it selfish that I miss the more "natural" Mariah? Not the girl in the field in jeans shorts but the serious artist who really cares for the fans and is the greatest without drama press. Maybe it's all because of the lost confidence. I saw her live on several concerts, she was always talking to the audience and made jokes. It seemed real and you could tell that she enjoyed her audience and the evening. I just wish that she enjoys what she's doing and that we see her again without the mask which is "protecting" her. (Thursday 24 November 2016; 19:50)

Mariah and "Kuschelrock" (68,614) by MusicfanJ from Germany On a German TV-special Mariah is on the countdown for 30 years of Kuschelrock (a famous compilation with romantic songs). Again they said how Mariah dominated the 90ies with her voice and only Whitney came close to her. So true and I'm still in love with "When you believe". Perfect soundtrack song. The music of the 90ies especially the ballads were amazing. Sorry I have a "retro-phase" at the moment. (Wednesday 23 November 2016; 20:52)
