About Chicago Lamb from USA: Mariah fanatic since 1990!

Yes and remix (105,924) by Chicago Lamb from USA
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 (104,620) by Chicago Lamb from USA
Ok I see, after hearing the whole performance perhaps I was hasty.

Best Love Takes Time performance (104,614) by Chicago Lamb from USA
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.

Then don't give it attention by posting an anti-it rant?

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 (104,422) 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.

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?

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.

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.

AYNAF Extended Version (103,436) by Chicago Lamb from USA
This is the same version just a longer outro. From the same recording sessions that ended up on the album.

Tommy's thoughts about MC30 (103,416) by Chicago Lamb from USA
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.

New era? (103,255) by Chicago Lamb from USA
Lol, I'm tuning in lately just to read Andrew's reads. Yasss. I like the "Debut/Sweet 16" idea too.

Time for lists lol (103,031) by Chicago Lamb from USA
Some of us like Andrew, I don't think he should be banned. Take this as an exercise to turn the cheek. We need more of that in this world today.

Kelly Clarkson comment (102,931) by Chicago Lamb from USA
Kelly is pandering to Mariah with her songwriting comment. She would love for Mariah to be a guest on her show.

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.

Good Lord, just enjoy the show (102,687) by Chicago Lamb from USA
"There's people called haters and we give them positivity." Why do some nit-pic and criticize? Is is because you have a platform to do it? Is it off-base expectation? Time to think about it. Just enjoy the show.

Tommy forced her to sing? (102,293) by Chicago Lamb from USA
All Mariah ever wanted was to be a singer. The genesis of her song writing capability is that she wanted to sing her own songs, not someone else's. Singer/songwriter. She wasn't forced to sing. Her dreams came true with Tommy, he believed in her talent and she believed him. That is until she found him possessive and controlling, but then she was too deeply entangled. Too young to navigate her own voice in their personal relationship. Nobody ever talks about/speculates the songs that may have been written about Tommy from the first 3 albums. When she loved him.

Chaka Khan (102,286) by Chicago Lamb from USA
We nor Mariah should take this personally. Chaka speaks her mind, and can shade left and right. It's Chaka's own little way to keep herself relevant. Not saying it's the correct way to express one's self, but that's Chaka. Mariah and others on the "list" are above it. Literally and figuratively. I love Chaka anyway.

Oh Santa with Ari & J Hud (101,738) by Chicago Lamb from USA
These days, artists are rarely in the studio at the same time to lay their vocal tracks. For example Mariah and Whitney did their tracks separately then met in the studio for the video promo. However music videos require the artist to be assembled in the same room. I'm sure there have been instances where artists have been "green screened" in.
