It's really Bianca who is playing Morticia. Then when the clock strikes, poof. She's Mariah and ready to be festive.

It's so cool. Mariah as Morticia, I love it. What a great it's time clip. It's fun to watch. Mariah and her team really did it again.

Just a Merry Christmas thought (107,219)
by Robert-Anthony from United States
| |
|
|
Do you think a Merry Christmas duets album could be one of MC's surprises to celebrate the anniversary? She could use her original vocals and just have other artists sing on the songs. I think it could work and make the album sell huge this holiday season. It could feature Post Malone, Brandy, Trey Songz, Kelly Clarkson, The Clark Sisters, Charlie Wilson, and Chris Brown. Just a thought this Sunday. I trust MC is going to celebrate the anniversary in a huge way.

Yes and remix (105,924)

I just finally listened to the Ariana only version. It sounds unfinished as if everything Mariah brought to the remix should have been done on the original. The remix is waaaayyyyy better.

Best Love Takes Time performance (104,615)
by 123 from USA
| |
|

I disagree. Even with the lack of resonant belts and some imperfections, she really went there vocally and took some risks. She started to dive into the other parts of her voice to sing the song. I love all the passion she poured into this performance. One of my favorites. Shakiness and all. Here is the full Love Takes Time performance that night.

The NARM Performance is shaky. She's super nervous, trying to add more notes and runs than the studio recording. If any of the NARM footage was great, it would have been used in her "The First Vision" VHS. I don't mind its been locked away but of course appreciate it 33 years later.

Mariah was pure fire that night at the NARM Convention. Serving awesome vocals, looks and attitude. Commanding that stage. I hope they release the complete performance of Vanishing that she did that night.

For the life of me, I don't know why you guys keep entertaining this clown. It's best to just ignore it and maybe it will go away one day. Anyone else in the UK that can splash it with some holy water? I don't read its posts, much less reply to it. It's desperate for attention and y'all keep falling for it. That aside, have a great weekend everyone and congratulations to Brenda Lee.

Vocals getting better (104,434)
by Chicago Lamb from USA
| |
|
|
Mariah isn't fastidious about exercising her voice. Regimented vocal exercise is considered bleak. She starts the first show dry and then as shows continue, she warms up. She recorded much of TEOM after the Charmbracelet tour as she said it left her voice in a good place. As a teenager, she respected opera but it was too restrictive, confining. She wanted to be freer with her voice.

MC's sold out Chicago show (104,430)
by Robert-Anthony from United States

Her voice just keeps getting better with each show. I wonder what did MC do to bring her voice back to where she actually sounds better than six months ago. Whatever you did MC, keep up with the better habits and vocal practices.

MC's sold out Chicago show (104,422)
by Chicago Lamb from USA
| |
|
|
A girlfriend of mine attended the show. She's a casual fan but went with a group of girls for fun. She recorded some fantastic videos. This is from her social media post: "Back in the 90s I said more than once that 'all I wanted for Christmas' was to see Mariah Carey perform (that song) - and many other songs live. It only took me 30 years but my wish came true. Last night, we attended the sold out Mariah Carey Christmas show - and wow it definitely was worth the wait. She included favorites from her 1994 and 2010 Merry Christmas albums along with many other non holiday hits. Mariah looks, sounds flawless and seems to be having fun on stage with her band and dancers. So grateful for another fun girlfriend holiday adventure. Here is a little taste of the magic."

Grio performances (104,260)
by Chicago Lamb from USA
| |
|
|
I agree with you, but the performers who do tributes are hand-picked by Mariah. Mariah wouldn't pick an Alicia Keys or Taylor Swift for obvious competitive reasons, or because she feels they don't fit her niche. A Beyonce would be lauded and Mariah wouldn't want the comparison.

by Zachariah from Croatia

Why does Mariah always gets boring-ish singers for a tribute? I want to hear Beyonce doing her song. It would be cool to see Taylor Swift doing Mariah's Shake It Off. Alicia singing My All. Etc etc. One Sweet Day was horror. They even messed up the text in the beginning.

Clips (104,124)
by Chicago Lamb from USA

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you for this. We love some good clips here on MCA. She looks happy to be on stage. Fans should be grateful for the opportunity to see her live. She seems to be checking the monitors for re-structured lyric arrangements. I hope over the course of the shows she has to do this less and rely on memory. I am going to the United Center show, why not right?

Clips (104,111)
by Terna from Nigeria

Yeah she's a little bit low energy, but she pulled out songs she hasn't sung in almost 10 years and killed it and she's singing live. Mariah is going through real vocal issues and I wish the fans would be a little bit more understanding. She obviously has taken our advice and seen some form of voice therapist and or coach because she sounds much better than she did this time last year and even all the way back to the pandemic year. I hope she gets even better.

Torn (103,768)
by Chicago Lamb from USA
| |
|
|
Just go and enjoy the show, however you don't need to spend $1000 for front row. The seats up and off to the side offer better views with less expense. Once you're there, you'll barely care about the whatever she may or may not mime. It's the "Mariah Carey" show so have a great time.

Torn (103,764)
by C from United States
| |
|
|
Wow, I haven't posted here in years. I see some familiar faces still live here. Is anyone else torn on whether or not to go see Mariah in this upcoming run of shows? On the one hand, I want to see her because I've been a lamb for 25 years. With so many stars dying, there is always a scary thought of what if this is your last chance in the back on my head. On the other hand, her performances are just awful and maddening these days. Those shows last year had me so upset and sad for her. I also hate how she waits until October to publicize the shows. Why not tell us in July or August so that people can get their coins and travel set ahead of time? It's inconsiderate considering that the shows are in the midst of 2 holidays. I had to ask myself could I justify paying up to $1,000 for a front row seat (I'm too old of a lamb to sit in the back) just to hear her sing flat, and lipsynch the same old songs in the same old arrangement? Yet... a part of me still longs to go just for the merch and the chance to be seen by her.

All I Live For (103,474)
by Andrew from the UK
| |
|
|
Apologies if this has already been discussed and deliberated but it's driving me a little insane: "No I would never play around" in the extended version sounds like The Rarities vocal with the word "around" different as if Mariah has taken the Rarities version and spliced it at that point. The extended version goes up on the word around and it doesn't flow like a phrase. I'm very confused: did Mariah condense the extended version to make a short version for The Rarities or - I'm a bit lost as to what I am hearing and what the differences are. Has anyone got this?

Tommy's thoughts about MC30 (103,437)
by Chicago Lamb from USA
| |
|
|
Well of course there's a lot to the story. Here was a young girl who needed the protection of a patriarch figure. I am 50. If I dated a person in their 20's, I'd probably act more like "father figure" too... just out of nature. Tommy also had to protect and nurture his golden goose. If his heart wasn't in the right place from the start, Mariah never would have been a part of it. Perhaps as the marriage went on, she outgrew him and couldn't express it otherwise.

Tommy's thoughts about MC30 (103,424)
by Stacey from USA
| |
|

Listen to the lyrics for All I Live For. Hello Tommy, don't be jealous. With Music Box back in the spotlight, it got me to thinking about his marriage to MC. Tommy has been married to Thalia for over 20 years. Is he that controlling with her as he was with Mariah? People don't change. Yet we don't hear any stories of how controlling he is with Thalia. Is there more to the story, Mariah's part in all of this? Just curious. Thoughts anyone?

AYNAF Extended Version (103,432)
by Robert-Anthony from United States

This is the gospel version that never made it on the album. This version was probably recorded first. Then one day in the studio she realized it was too gospel for the album. Tommy probably helped her decide too. Music Box the album is a very orchestrated piece of art. The mixes and song choices were carefully thought about to make a cohesive album. This is really why every song flowed into each other like a woven piece of cloth. It's not by coincidence that Music Box is her biggest selling album. Tommy was not going to let MC's third album be subjected to the criticism and low sales like Emotions.

We never talk about the songs that are about Tommy. There are many. But, I'm in full support of "My Prayer" and "Working Hard" and any other songs left off the album. Music Box is perfect the way it was delivered. Tommy knew what he was doing.

Tommy's thoughts about MC30 (103,408)
by Robert-Anthony from United States
| |
|

I was thinking today after looking at the album cover Mariah Carey. What are Tommy's thoughts in 2023 about MC's remarkable career? Does he have any regrets about how he kept such tight reins on MC? Does he have any regrets about marrrying MC? Was he trying too hard to mirror the record label executive relationship that Clive Davis and Whitney Houston had? Whatever he was trying to mirror worked extremely well until the music relationship became a physical relationship. I think the Emotions and Music Box albums were all about that physical relationship. The evidence is substantially real in Emotions, So Blessed, Music Box, Now That I Know, and I've Been Thinking About You. They were all about Tommy.

New era? (103,254)
by Andrew from the UK

Quite like the idea of the last album being "Sweet Sixteen". Isn't 16 when girls in ages past made their social "debut"? Perhaps the final album being called "Debut" would be rather fun. Would certainly make headlines for the name alone and has many a layered meaning.

Generative AI (102,912)
by Chicago Lamb from USA

When Mariah's biopic goes into production, I imagine they will use AI in some capacity much like Whitney's "I Wanna Dance with Somebody". Mariah's voice has been different on each album. Not just tone but stylistically also. It's one of the reasons I collected so many of her singles. I never knew what she was going to do next or how. I was hooked.

I can't wait for some computer wiz to recreate all ballads post-Daydream era using MC's young voice (aka whispery voice done right). I often wonder if Butterfly could be re-sung using the voice in Can't Let Go. I'd be in heaven. WDYT?

Legacy (102,615)
by Steven Berning from USA

|

What's with the negative slant? Mariah is enjoying her third act. Don't you think you are taking the rarity of that feat for granted? She had an imperial phase for an entire decade. Then, the biggest comeback of the following decade. All that would have more than cemented her place in history. However, by some reverse fate, the universe has decided Mariah defies all odds, never count her out, and she deserves to be at the top again. Absolutely no reason to feel ashamed by that in some way. Not because of Christmas or her whistle note. Mariah is traversing uncharted territory.
