Favorite Rainbow track (106,747) by Mara from United States
I'm currently loving the "Can't Take That Way" remix. It's like it just hits differently released now this summer.

Rainbow's End vocals (106,746) by Mara from United States
Yes. I love it too and it def has some 70's disco sound to it. My sister who was raised in the 70's said it gave her Donna Summer vibes. Queen of 70's disco, lol. I love the positive, uplifting sound to the remix. Ty MC for gifting this to the public, especially your fans who lived through Rainbow and always wished it were a full song.

Tiny Desk (106,745) by Robert-Anthony from United States
If her latest Instagram post is any indication of what she can do now without any studio tricks, then I believe she would crush a Tiny Desk concert this year. How does NPR commission artists to do a Tiny Desk concert?

Spring or fall album release preference (106,743) by Libra Lamb from USA
That’s right. The only acceptance that matters is your own. Other people’s opinions, family included, do not matter. No one lives their life according to us so why should we do the same? Choose yourself, every time.

MC Instagram post (106,742) by Stacey from USA
Go and check out Mariah's latest Instagram post where she shows us all the different vocals sung in Heartbreaker. I always knew how involved MC was in the creation of every part of her songs. But to see something visual really hammers home how truly talented, a once in a generation talent, Mariah Carey. Wow. Just wow.

Tiny Desk (106,741) by Brandon from USA
Tiny Desk is the new MTV Unplugged. Everyone has been on there and it is very popular. You guys think MC would do the Tiny Desk? It could be great promo and she would have to sing 100% live. No vocal tracks allowed.

Favorite Rainbow track (106,740) by Jamie from UK
The background vocals on [Can't take that away] triumphant mix is it the [Price Sisters]?

Thank you Shezz. I am learning this year to just be me and not worry about seeking acceptance from others.

Debut and Emotions anniversaries (106,738) by C from United States
Possibly. I think she has a very skewed outlook on her catalogue. It's why she has beaten MC to death.

The insider account on X. Though of course it cannot be taken as concrete verified information. Most of the things they have said have been right so far. MC seems to be in a similar space she was during The Art of Letting Go and MIAM era. Revisiting her ideas and concept over and over. I hope she does not over think and lose the spark of spontaneity. She probably has 3 albums worth of material ready by now. So curious to hear her talk about this album and its process when it's finally done. Robert Anthony - What you seek is seeking you.

Favorite Rainbow track (106,736) by Stacey from USA
Very true, lol. But I gotta say I admire those who are unapologetically true to themselves than those who go with what's popular. That's how I life my life.

Anyway, Rainbow was never a huge favorite of mine. However, even if an album doesn't grab me as a whole, there are always those songs I love that make me grateful she put out that album.

Heartbreaker (esp. Heartbreaker/Love Hangover)
Can't Take That Away
Crybaby
After Tonight

Where did you get the intel about Rarities 2? I hope that comes to fruition.

Favorite Rainbow track (106,733) by Edward from USA
Robert-Anthony, I am pretty sure if Mariah released a compilation of her farts on vinyl, you would buy it and find different nuances and real background harmonies on them. I admire your devotion for Mariah Carey.

There For Me (Acapella) does something to me when I listen to it. It belongs on K Love's playlist right now.

Favorite Rainbow track (106,731) by Libra Lamb from USA
So I've been really enjoying this new anniversary edition of Rainbow and the song that stood out the most for it's haunting, sincere lyrics and vulnerability is Petals. I absolutely love this song, though it's always been one of my favorites, lately I can really appreciate how beautiful and real it is. Mariah does her best writing when she dives deep into her personal heartaches and lets the pen flow. The Petals Pound Boys remixes are really good too, it's a shame they were excluded from the MC30 releases. Do you have a new favorite Rainbow track? I know it's hard to pick just one.

Spring or fall album release preference (106,730) by Robert-Anthony from United States
Bruno Mars is on the table too. I think MC has finally realized that she is going to have to step out of her comfort zone and collaborate with new producers. I am all for an album with songs with from Bruno Mars, Anderson Paak, Rai Khalil, and Solange. Her recording time period for this album is going to be her longest time yet from 2021-2025.

Spring or fall album release preference (106,729) by Shezz from Pk
Yeah I think unless she releases the first single in August, she will push it to early next year. Apparently the nameless producer she was in the studio with all week is not Anderson Paak, although she has recorded stuff with him as well. Insider hinted that it might have been Bruno Mars. I think you've been wanting her to work with him as well right? Apparently Rareties 2 is also to be released this year. If she's still working on MC16, she probably plans to release Rareties 2 later this year to keep us going till MC16. I am not sure if MC30 will be a very big thing. She already did MC25. I don't think she celebrates 25 and 30. 30s only of those whose 25 she missed. Let's see what MC has planned.

Spring or fall album release preference (106,728) by Robert-Anthony from United States
I was just thinking today that MC's album releases in the spring tend to do better for strong first week sales and promotion is executed 100% for maximum sales. I am hoping the new album is given like an April 2025 release date. She is probably has something planned for the 30th anniversary for Merry Christmas like an anniversary editon and Christmas shows. January-March 2025 would give her time to release the first single and promote it properly.

Mariah Carey reflects on 25 years of Rainbow (106,727) by Jamie from UK
Sorry to didn't get to go. But my mum would have been the same if I was younger. I got to go to the Daydream tour too. I wanted to go to see Madonna's Blond Ambition tour in 1990 but I was only 12 at the time and my mum was the same lol.

Mariah Carey reflects on 25 years of Rainbow (106,726) by MusicfanJ from Germany
Wow, you lucky one. I had tickets ordered for the tour for a friend and me. But I was a young teen back then and my mother didn't allow to travel only with a friend to a city 2 hours away from my home at night. So I had to resell the tickets. In 2003 I was finally able and old enough lol to see Mariah for the first time (Charmbracelet tour) and the wait was worth it. One of the best nights. But back to Rainbow, I revisit the album too and I have so many good feelings and memories about the music and the time. As I said, I was a mostly carefree teen and I remember it like it was yesterday. I really was Mariah "obsessed" in 99. Lol. Most of my friends were fans of boybands but I was a Mariah fan since Daydream. Now the time has changed in so many ways, people and things, but the music and memories will stay. I feel a little old too now.

Mariah Carey reflects on 25 years of Rainbow (106,725) by Jamie from UK
I loved the Rainbow tour. Lots of people say this album was rushed just to finish with Sony. I disagree, there was so much put into this album, tours, resung vocals for remixes, catchy songs, great music videos, live performances etc.

Rainbow 25 (106,724) by Terna from Nigeria
That's one of the weird things I left Spotify for YouTube Music, missing songs entirely or different versions you're not conversant with and don't get me started on the songs that were previously available and then suddenly not. Leaving gaps in one's playlist. Smh.

Mariah Carey reflects on 25 years of Rainbow (106,723) by Special K from USA
I love this album. Favorite song is Bliss. First time I saw Mariah in concert was during the Rainbow Tour and it was the first time I met her. I almost passed out. Glad to see Mariah reflect on the Rainbow album. Why do I feel so old? Great memories.
