Funko Pop (101,546) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway Ok, it's disheartening to read this board lately, and I agree with all you that the Saudi Arabia concert was awful. But do you remember the performance when she received the Billboard Icon Award? That is only three years ago, and then she sounded really good, and it was completely live. I've listened to the Honest Vocal Coach on YouTube recently, and I have to agree with her, if Mariah got more fit, sang almost daily, cut back on the alcohol, I think we still can have some good vocal performances from Mariah, I haven't lost faith yet. So, I wanted to bring a bit of positivity to this board after almost all of us have slaughtered Mariah's latest performance. I got my Funko Pop vinyl figure today, inspired by her Fantasy video, it stands next to my LP player and I'm so happy about it. Too bad we can't share pictures on this board, or else I would have attached a picture of it on to this message. I bought her Christmas Funko Pop figure four years ago, so now I have two Mariahs in my living room, after all, she is my religion, Mariahcareyism. (Tuesday 25 October 2022; 19:46)

Mariah appreciation thread (101,485) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway It's hard to mention two things without not mentioning her angelic voice. I appreciate how her voice was, and one live version of a song comes to mind that always gives me goosebumps, her live rendition of Never Too Far/Hero medley. When she sings that last line in her whisper register, it's a testimony to of how beautiful she can sing. What I appreciate today is that compared to other stars who have had the same level of fame, she is the only one who seems to have her s**t together. She hasn't succumbed to drugs or any other addiction, and hasn't had a ton of plastic surgery, and it seems like she is a very good mother.

Mariah appreciation thread (101,483) by Lady B from USA Name two things you appreciate about Mariah, one from then (whenever "then" is for you) and one from now. Go. (Tuesday 18 October 2022; 15:21)

Re: What MC albums have you never bought? (101,438) (101,440) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway I never bought MIAMTEC. I don't know why, but with all the delays, I felt it was not a cohesive album, just a bunch of random songs put together to make an album. Besides that one, I own every Mariah album.

Just a question (101,428) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway With us all realising that Mariah probably prerecorded most of her vocals at the Global Citizen Festival, how much do you think she prerecorded at the BET Awards earlier this year? I feel that was the moment where I actually felt her voice had improved, but have I been deceived? I really think her vocals was live that night, or has Mariah gotten that much better at lip synching? What do you guys think (Saturday 8 October 2022; 17:32)

Re: The numbers are so confusing (101,363) (101,365) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway It's 70 million in the US alone, the certifications are from RIAA. Mariah has sold 200 million worldwide. (Thursday 29 September 2022; 09:45)

Re: Global Citizen (101,323) (101,328) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway I agree with you a bit, Randy, I have watched WBT a few times now, and have become uncertain about the last chorus. Maybe Mariah just [has] gotten much better to hide that she lip synchs. But she makes a movement at the very end when she hit that long high note where it looks very natural, it actually looks like she has to make an effort to hit it. Well, I won't let this ruin the performance for me, it was nice to [see] her back on stage again. (Monday 26 September 2022; 07:46)

Mariah is back (101,315) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway Wow, I really enjoyed her Global Citizen performance, and I actually think she sang mostly live, even the end of WBT. Her voice is in really good shape and she looked happy and confident. Keep it up Mariah. (Sunday 25 September 2022; 08:26)

A bit too much negativity (101,038) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway I think there has been a bit too much negativity on this board lately, and I'm the first one to admit I have been a part of it by bashing Mariah's idea to trademark the Queen of Christmas title. But hey, you guys, we are her fans, lets give Mariah some positivity. I think it's a wonderful thing to learn that she will be the next guest on Meghan Markle's talk show, even though the show has gotten negative reviews. I hope to hear a smart and confident Mariah speaking, maybe about topics she hasn't spoken about before. I would hate for Mariah to retire, and I can't believe some people here are actually praising the idea, that is exactly what women in music has to face from haters, let us not be haters, ok? I would love to hear new music from our beloved Mariah, even though her voice is not what it used to. Have you guys forgotten the BET performance, I think she sounded better than years, even having some upper chest notes in the high register. Her voice has gotten a bit thin, but I still love to watch and hear her sing. So from one fan to my idol, please Mariah, give us some new music. (Thursday 25 August 2022; 14:21)

Re: Article: Mariah Carey wants to trademark "Queen of Christmas" (100,986) (100,988) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway This is a battle I don't understand why Mariah wants to take. Why trademark it? Everybody is using it when referring to Mariah anyway. Mariah, choose your battles. (Wednesday 17 August 2022; 12:00)

Re: Libra (100,762) (100,768) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway I'm a scorpio, the only zodiac signs I can match with, are a libra or another scorpio. Yes, you guessed it, I'm single. (Tuesday 19 July 2022; 05:40)

The Art of Letting Go (100,740) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway Don't let go, don't ever ever let go. (Saturday 16 July 2022; 09:12)

Re: Vocabulary (100,708) (100,715) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway She is 173 cm tall, with the heels she is 183 cm, she needs to be tall. Do you want her to tip toe her around town, no, she loves those heels. (Thursday 14 July 2022; 08:08)

Re: Vocabulary (100,711) (100,714) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway As if I wrote it myself, lol. (Thursday 14 July 2022; 08:06)

Re: B's Break My Soul (100,694) (100,700) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway Are you serious? Mariah has still a worldwide hit on the charts, did you expect or predict that? (Tuesday 12 July 2022; 08:45)

Re: Vocabulary (100,685) (100,690) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway I believe it because of her anxiety, she need assistants because she is nervous, no brainer, really. (Sunday 10 July 2022; 23:45)

Re: You and I (100,672) (100,674) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway "You and I" is one of the fan favourites, and I find it a bit strange you have never seen it. "With you I'm born again" was not at Live 8, I think it was on BET, seen it thousands of times, one of my favourites. (Friday 8 July 2022; 22:38)

Re: You and I (100,669) (100,670) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway Why so critical? (Thursday 7 July 2022; 22:14)

Re: You and I (100,664) (100,668) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway I feel like she gave everything she had to record E=MC2, you can really hear it, singing on top of her lungs. (Thursday 7 July 2022; 15:08)

Re: Some trivia for you (100,649) (100,659) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway I have those "Anytime You Need a Friend" remixes as a UK Dj Exclusive Double Pack, playing it regularly on my LP player, my most previous Mariah item. (Tuesday 5 July 2022; 15:24)

Re: New cover song (100,644) (100,645) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway I would say "How Do I Get You Alone" by Heart. I believe Celine Dion has covered it, but I think Mariah would have covered it with much more heart (no pun intended). (Monday 4 July 2022; 11:28)

Re: GOAT (100,618) (100,626) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway I got a picture sms back in the day from a guy called Per Sundes, a music journalist here in Norway, who I know. The picture was from when he interviewed Mariah during TEOM era, and the text on that picture sms was: "Happy Easter Holliday from Mariah." (Thursday 30 June 2022; 18:31)

Re: BET performance (100,607) (100,609) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway Then stop criticizing our beloved Mariah. (Wednesday 29 June 2022; 07:48)

Re: BET performance (100,601) (100,606) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway Why should she get rid of her gimmicks? It's her trademark, and what I have seen, her trademark has done good in life. Can you say that about your trademark? (Tuesday 28 June 2022; 16:56)

BET performance (100,588) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway I loved her at the BET performance, our beloved Mariah is back. (Monday 27 June 2022; 14:08)
