How Much remix (106,657)
by lighty from China
| |
|
|
If I remember correctly, How Much was supposed to be the third single from Rainbow but Mariah wanted CTTA instead.

How Much remix (106,652)
by Bobby A from United States
| |
|
|
You may be on to something. Sony did not want any R&B hip hop infused songs from Rainbow as singles. Remember the Can't Take That Away From Me/Crybaby battle with Sony. Maybe How Much was going to be the original second single after Heartbreaker and Sony said no and released Thank God I Found You instead.

Was there ever a leak of this? Is it new vocals?

How Much remix (106,650)
by BFF from United States

|

Maybe "How Much" was a possible single from "Rainbow" and they recorded a remix version in 1999 in addition to the JD-produced original version with Usher?

Article: Mariah Carey's "Rainbow" gets remastered (106,655)

I agree. Case in point WBT. She was ready to submit the album, but went back with JD and wrote it in a day. Also she said the iconic climax was on the spot her trying to impress the suits and she gave it her all. Same with some of her other songs from TEOM like ILT, SIO. She should take it easy and let her magic do the work.

Article: Mariah Carey's "Rainbow" gets remastered (106,654)
by Jamie from UK

|

I sometimes feel Mariah spends too much time on projects, perfecting them. Sometimes the best ideas are sporadic. And analyzing and perfecting things can sometimes take away from the original idea. I also think when you analyse something over and over something that isn't that great from the start can almost feel better after becoming over familiar with it. It's like when a song is released from her that isn't that great and after a while you learn to love it as you have become over familiar with it. I bet most of her big hits were all in the moment songs that were great from the offset.

Article: Mariah Carey's "Rainbow" gets remastered (106,651)
by Scott from USA
| |
|
|
While I am excited to hear the remastered album and any unreleased material, I am not so sure that I agree with this article's assertion that "Mariah had invested quite a bit in this album". Rainbow was created quickly and in response to delays on the development of the Glitter film. Additionally, it completed her contract with Sony, which I think was Mariah's strongest motivation for putting an album out at the time. She wanted to close that chapter of her life. There are certainly some moments on Rainbow that I love - Heartbreaker is an instant classic, and songs like Petals and Ex-Girlfriend gave us some (somewhat uncharacteristically) autobiographical lyrics about Mariah's life at the time - but overall Rainbow feels to me like Mariah's most rushed work. That being said, it's fun, it's sexy, and it's perfect for Pride Month.

I can't wait to hear the remastered sound of this album. Songs like Heartbreaker sounds good and clear, but other songs on this album sounded like it was recorded in the debut eras woodshop bathroom.
I do hope we get an acapella version of Heartbreaker. I'd love to hear her vocal layering on that version.

How Much remix (106,646)
by Bobby A from United States
| |

I am wondering that too about How Much. The original already samples Makaveli's (Tupac) Me and My Girlfriend. What more could have been done to make it a remix? Maybe JD and MC sped up the tempo with a new verse from Usher.

Celine (106,643)
by Alexis Carrington-Colby from United States

|
|
It won't. Why would it? It's "interesting" how so many lambs are suddenly feeling for Celine and seemingly co-opting her heartbreaking condition as a nebulous way to explain Mariah's vocal state. Is it possible that Mariah also has something going on that has impacted her voice? Yes. Is it also possible that improper maintenance is the cause? Yes. The former absolves Mariah of responsibility and places her in a position of being a victim-something I've noticed lambs love, Mariah as a perpetual victim. The latter holds her responsible, at least in part, and that isn't something the lambily likes to do.

Rainbow Tour footage (106,645)

We know Mariah won’t release a full Rainbow tour concert for Rainbow25. I wonder if we could get an Around the World type release where we could at least see some HQ, remastered footage? That would allow her to cherry pick footage and vocals.

Celine (106,639)
by Will from England
| |
|
|
I've been watching clips of her interview in the lead up to her documentary, and it is heartbreaking to see her so vulnerable and open about her condition, and demonstrating how it affects her singing so much. SPS sounds horrible and so debilitating, but reminds me of the behind the scenes documentary for her Taking Chances show, and how even then she was battling this condition, without knowing what it was then. I hope, that for us fans, this puts a collective stop to the endless and exhausted debate on not just Celine's, but Mariah's singing voice and state of being.

What is "A Thousand Lifetimes"? Did [Crystal ball] actually get made or was it just a rumor? Lastly, from the way it's been talked about, I never got the impression that the duet version of After Tonight was completed. If that's the case, I'd love to hear demo snippets.

I like what has been revealed so far, but I am hoping for at least 5 more bonus tracks. What about these rumored tracks recorded for the Rainbow album?
1. After Tonight ft. Miguel
2. Crystal Ball ft. Lauryn Hill
3. Everytime
A Thousand Life Times would be perfect for the Rainbow 25th anniversary.

It looks like we will be getting a So So Def remix of "How Much", the new Morales collaboration "Rainbow's End", the live performances of "Heartbreaker" and "Can't Take That Away" from VH1 Divas Live 2000, and an a capella version of "Bliss". Would be nice if she included "There For Me" but maybe she considers that part of the "Glitter" sessions since it was a b-side on the Never Too Far/Hero Medley single?

Top five rap verses on a MC song (106,637)

Honey
Heartbreaker
Crybaby
You Don't Know What To Do
I even like the "Here we go now... what" lines at the end of It's Like That. I tend to stay away from rap centered remixes and/or album cuts. But these are so good, even I have to give them their due.

Favorite MC remixes (106,634)
by Stacey from USA
| |
|
|
Ahh yes, love me a list. I remember my oldest sister gave me an ABMB remix CD-5 for my birthday in 1996. It was the first time I heard the ABMB remix with Xscape and Da Brat. I had no idea Mariah remixed songs as much as she did. It was like discovering a whole new world. I definitely prefer her club versions to her slower R&B ones. Here's my list of favs in no particular order:
1. Dreamlover (Morales Club Mix Edit)
2. ATYNAF (C&C Radio Edit)
3. Joy To The World (Celebration Mix Edit)
4. Fantasy (Bad Boy Mix) & (Club Radio Edit)
5. ABMB (Mr. Dupri Mix) & (Def Classic Radio)
6. Honey (Classic Mix)
7. Butterfly (Meme Club Radio)
8. My All/Stay Awhile (No rap)
9. I Still Believe (Classic Club Mix Edit)
10. Shake It Off (Unofficial Morales Remix)*
*Sounds legit but I can't find it on any official CD release.

Ariana's got another hit coming with this new song. I would've love a collab with Mariah on the original of this song instead of "Yes, and?". Also the video is amazing, I mean stalking the ultimate stalker, Penn Badgley (You and Gossip Girl) and paying homage to Batman/Catwoman universe all in one, iconic. I hope Mariah invests in her music video with concept. Ariana's BIM and We Can't Be Friends music videos both have so much replay value and I love all the homages she does in these videos and previously too in Than You, Next, 34+35 etc.
