#2 in Norway (86,965) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway AIWFCIY is curently #2 on the national chart "VG-lista topp 20" here in Norway. Last year it went to #1 becoming her first ever #1 in Norway. I doubt it will get to #1 this year, since this recently released hidious Christmas song by Norwegian celebrities rules the chart.

Re: Re: Last Kiss (86,956) (86,960) (86,964) by this_is_qhm from the Philippines Exactly. I understand producers wanting to leave their stamp on their projects - it's their signature, that's fine. Some of JDs mutterings don't make sense to be on their respective songs at all, but as long as his input is nowhere near DJ Khaled's obnoxiousness, we'll be fine. I gotta admit, though, that with E=MC2, the only other thing I don't like about that album (aside from the fact that the ballads are obviously poor rehashes of WBT that blend into each other) is that JD has peppered a lot of the songs with his jibberish. Thankfully his next works with Mariah weren't like that. (Monday 10 December 2018; 13:46)

Re: Last Kiss (86,952) (86,963) by Hector from Mexico This is one of the few songs I skip on that album. (Monday 10 December 2018; 00:51)

Click here (86,962) by SM from Citizen of the World Now that you clicked here, if you are not playing "All I Want For Christmas Is You" right now please do. Let go for #1. Let's break another record. (Sunday 9 December 2018; 18:36)

Don't know what to play (86,961) by Gilles from Malta I know it is Christmas season but I am cooking for some friends tonight and I am listening Caution album non stop. This album is so good, the flow just takes you in a good space with the help of a good beat. What it is very nice, it is current without being too much. We have a bit of everything without being too dark I would say more realistic. I love this album. I had to say it again on this board to tell how happy I am with this album. Ok next week it will be time to cook Christmas cookies so I will switch to Christmas carols even I have already done it a bit. Have a nice time with those amazing albums from Mariah's repertoire. Kiss and hugs to everyone. (Sunday 9 December 2018; 17:19)

Re: Last Kiss (86,956) (86,960) by Licia from USA Lol. For me it depends on the song. With Last Kiss and Thanx For Nothin the JD ad libs fit right in, but for Love Story I didn't need to hear all that. You all know I love JD, but I can definitely understand people not always liking to hear him all through songs. (Sunday 9 December 2018; 15:14)

Re: With You cover (86,957) (86,959) by Edward from USA You have a very subtle way to imply that some people here are almost too gay to function. I'm not reading your posts anymore, until the next one of course. (Sunday 9 December 2018; 14:32)

Where is she staying? (86,958) by Fernando from UK Lambs, I'll be going to the London and Madrid shows. Does anyone know where she'll be staying? I'd love to go and say hi to her after the show. I know she stayed at the Corinthia hotel in London the last couple of times but not sure if she'll stay there again. (Sunday 9 December 2018; 14:07)

With You cover (86,957) by this_is_qhm from the Philippines You know you have written a great song when someone (from the opposite sex) does his own version of it and it still knocks. Sorry for emphasizing the gender flip - it's just that not a lot of female original songs this kind sound good when covered by a guy. That's why many guys don't attempt Mariah songs. (Sunday 9 December 2018; 12:42)

Re: Last Kiss (86,954) (86,956) by Bill from the UK Agree, it's the best song on the album. Actually I was listening to E=MC2 the other day. I do wish there was a "JD free" version of this album though. He literally doesn't shut up. I'm sitting there fuming after a while. It's like, yes, we all know who it is. (Sunday 9 December 2018; 08:32)

Re: Billboard's Woman of the Year (86,940) (86,955) by Edward from USA I agree with you 100%. The fact that Ariana's singing career started like many new artists, on YouTube, and that she covered a few of Mariah's songs, including the very difficult Emotions and AIWFCIY, made it even worse for the media to let it go. Since then she's done music trying to find her own voice and style. Ariana could be Mariah's daughter, and I thought Mariah would acknowledge her differently, but she's never shown the girl any love, so why should Ariana keep kissing her ass citing her as a huge influence? As for Ariana's music, well, her music doesn't do for me what Mariah's does, but I enjoyed "Yours Truly" and a few songs from "Dangerous Woman". Mariah coming from the struggle and a dysfunctional family, having an exceptional voice and having the ability to put her life experiences into great lyrics set her apart from Whitney, Celine and the rest. It seems to be though that singers/lyricists like Mariah, Alanis Morissette and late Dolores O'Riordan produced their best work when they were struggling with life in general or unhappy. Mariah is definitely an anomaly in the music industry. Some sing, some write, some produce, but Mariah's done them all exceptionally without even trying hard. (Sunday 9 December 2018; 02:09)

Re: Last Kiss (86,952) (86,954) by Licia from USA This song is one of my favorites on E=MC2. The Purple Rain sort of sample is what drew me to the song as well. They created a great song. (Sunday 9 December 2018; 00:17)

Re: Article: Mariah Carey sits in for Keith Sweat (86,951) (86,953) by B from USA I would also like to know. I tried to find it on YouTube but had no luck unfortunately. (Saturday 8 December 2018; 23:32)

Last Kiss (86,952) by MC1989 from Spain One of the things I like most in this song are the "ooh - ooh - ooh - ooh" parts are so similar to Purple Rain, by Prince. I thought it could be a sampler, but it's not mentioned in the song credits. Anyway I like this song very much. (Saturday 8 December 2018; 23:24)

Article: Mariah Carey sits in for Keith Sweat (86,951) by Betty from Canada How do I listen to this? (Saturday 8 December 2018; 22:56)

02 Tickets (86,950) by Will from England Hi Eric, the ticket has now been sold. Thank you for posting. (Saturday 8 December 2018; 21:36)

Re: O2 Ticket (86,945) (86,949) by Will from England I'm also open to offers from £50. (Saturday 8 December 2018; 18:35)

Official download day (86,948) by T from USA There are two days floating around as an official Download Day for AIWFCIY: Friday December 14th or Friday December 21st. Once we get a concrete day we can all do #glitter moment for the song to try and push it to the top. (Saturday 8 December 2018; 14:54)

AIWFC (86,947) by RD from South Africa I came across this video on how we all can help to get AIWFC to number 1. If we all do our part as suggested in this video, I think it is worth a shot or at least get the song in the top 5 on the Hot 100. All of us here share a common goal and that is to see MC succeed, so let's put in the effort and make it happen. (Saturday 8 December 2018; 14:48)

Berlin concert on repeat (86,946) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway I just can't stop watching the concert from Berlin. I honestly think it's one of her best performances since Tokyo Dome in 1996. I'm falling in love with this woman all over again, what a nice feeling. (Saturday 8 December 2018; 14:16)

O2 Ticket (86,945) by Will from England Hi everyone, I have a spare ticket to Mariah's London show this Tuesday coming and wondered if there are any UK Lambs here interested? It's in section 111, row K. Selling for £70, bought for £93.34. It's an E-Ticket. (Saturday 8 December 2018; 14:04)

Re: Merry Christmas album (86,938) (86,944) by MusicfanJ from Germany The same here. Even my ‎colleague loves it when "AIWFCIY" gets played on the radio. And it gets played a lot here. Imagine this year it would be at number one. Not that MC needs another one, but it would be nice for her and the lambs worldwide. Anyway I wish you all a wonderful time and a lot of festive moments. Merry Christmas. (Saturday 8 December 2018; 11:20)

Re: Billboard's Woman of the Year (86,940) (86,943) by MusicfanJ from Germany Yup she sounds nothing like Mariah and will never. Maybe they compared her because it was obvious Ariana tried to copy some things or maybe were forced from the management (I don't know). Christina Aguilera were compared at the beginning of her career too to MC. But after a while Christina really got her own style. I can't see that yet by Ariana. (Saturday 8 December 2018; 11:14)

Re: Merry Christmas album (86,938) (86,942) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway It's like that with everybody I know as well. I just have a couple of friends that can enjoy some of the regular stuff Mariah has, but everybody just simply love "All I Want For Cristmas Is You". But, what I have noticed now, with people I randomly meet, is that people who are too young to remember 1994, are starting to believe that Mariah has done a cover version, that there is an original AIWFCIY out there somewhere. Even though that can get me slightly anxious that the general public will forget that it is original Mariah Carey material, it also says a lot about how big of a classic it has turned out to be.

She who shall remain nameless (86,941) by Susana from USA In this article, it goes on to recount how she went on to “allegedly” (lol) steal other artist’s music. (Saturday 8 December 2018; 08:11)
