(84,741) by Terna from Nigeria I'm getting a lot of past videos vibes with this new video "With You". Is that the same house with the GTFO video and also that magazine shoot she did a while back recently. It's also been awhile we saw Mariah driving, I actually forgot she could drive. Lol. Anyways I love it, it certainly flows well with the song and the sepia tone gives it this vintage feel. Mariah looks the best she's looked since 1997. PS: That American Music Awards performance was flawless like a piece of art. (Thursday 11 October 2018; 11:39)

Re: AMA choreography (84,725) (84,740) by RibbonB from USA Hahaha, I'm checking for MC, still a favorite diva herself, the dancing comes with the package and "I be like yoooo, it's wooooe". (Thursday 11 October 2018; 10:30)

Randy and Joachim (84,739) by anonymous from UK Now I just couldn't leave it there. Mariah was embarrassed by Whitney at the Oscars? Now that is completely your opinion, don't even. Don't state that like it's a fact. Whitney has a bigger voice, yes. But in my opinion (remembering pretty much all this is about an opinion) Mariah has the purer and more beautiful tone, so no, there were no mic problems etc, Mariah sang beautifully and from the heart, no embarrassment whatsoever. Joachim, thank you for saying what I really should be saying, but am just too damn tired to say. If Randy lists the problems that people make excuses for once more and says "did I get them all", ignoring what you've just said once more, I may spontaneously combust. So let's spell it clear for you, Randy - Joachim is saying everyone is different. That's point one. He is saying some people have it all their lives, some people don't, that's point two. He is not making excuses about anything, he is simply stating that people change/deteriorate/get better/etc differently, just because person a keeps it doesn't mean the same for person b, c and d. That's point three. Have I explained it simply enough for you now? Good. (Thursday 11 October 2018; 08:59)

New album (84,738) by Ethan from United States So Mariah's Asia tour starts in 5 days and she has 3 weeks between that and the Christmas Tour. Does it mean the album will drop sometime in November or end of December? Who knows. Perhaps GTFO and With You won't even end up in the final cut just like Rihanna's 4 5 Seconds, Bitch Better Have My Money, and American Oxygen in Anti. Overall, the rollout of the songs for the album is precise and prepared compared to MIAM. And the first two songs are solid. To be honest, I like With You more after the AMA's performance - it's visually artistic and stunning. More or less, I look forward to new materials and similar songs to have a musically coherent produced album. (Thursday 11 October 2018; 08:56)

With You video is artsy perfection (84,737) by Lexingz from Estonia The video is viewable on so many artistic and emotional levels and has so many self aware references that I'm completely shook. I mean wow. Also, the shoe gods have answered my prayers. Mariah, this is art, I'm crying. (Thursday 11 October 2018; 08:45)

Frustration (84,736) by Lara from Middle East I think most fans are frustrated because Mariah keeps promising a change and then goes back to her old ways. Not making excuses but she is in a completely different state of mind and definetly not motivated as before I guess, and probably her medications for bipolar limit her creativity for sure. I just want her to be more transparent, meaning not promising something she cannot deliver. (Thursday 11 October 2018; 07:43)

Re: AMA choreography (84,720) (84,735) by Shezz from Pk RibbonB that was soooo spot on I could actually see those previous dancers doing those cheesy moves so vividly in my mind. After seeing the full AMAs performance on Vevo I have to say overall it wasn't that bad. Looked and sounded ok and to most of the people watching and media publications that's all that matters. Most of them could not tell she was lipping most of it. Only we could tell that she sadly lipped. Let's move on and start bashing the video now. Maybe she doesn't get the budget to hire actors anymore. I could even do with seeing Tanaka doing some cheesy moves on there as a freebie. Am I getting used to it or was there a little less touching herself in this video. Pretty but exactly as expected. I still think they should have gone with the WBT storyline with Bryan reprising Miller's role and a Packer look alike doing Roberts'. (Thursday 11 October 2018; 07:21)

MV (84,734) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Gosh Mariah looks stunning in the music video. Every single shot is perfection, this woman is so beautiful it's crazy. I was just staring at her like what on earth is the beautiful creature? Even though the music video doesn't have a story line, I really liked it. She is fun and playful in it. She doesn't try to be sexy to the point where she looks uncomfortable (or makes the audience uncomfortable haha). She just looks amazing. She has the most beautiful smile. (Thursday 11 October 2018; 05:12)

Re: With You (84,718) (84,733) by Bobby A from United States The video is just beautiful. Should have been released last week. Oh well, MC should go ahead and release the album title and release date to generate more views and spins of With You. I hate when she drags her feet in being forth coming about album information. I wonder what will be the next step if With You doesn't get any radio airplay. At this point, Lambs want a whole album this year. (Thursday 11 October 2018; 05:04)

Re: AMA / disgruntled fans sticking around (84,707) (84,732) by Stacey from USA A-freaking-men. Seriously I can't love your post enough. I've been a fan since 1993, 15 years old. I'm now 41. Do the math, lol. Love your thoughts. Spot on. (Thursday 11 October 2018; 04:24)

The video (84,731) by RibbonB from USA It's just ok. There are some pretty shots. The slicked back hair look is cute. I didn't get the car, or walk of fame moments, or the laying on the floor moment for that matter. Well that was one more stream though. (Thursday 11 October 2018; 04:24)

Re: I love this board (84,697) (84,730) by Mara from United States What a great post. 100% agree with you. (Thursday 11 October 2018; 03:35)

"The Remixes" 15 years later (84,729) by loverboy from Canada How many people have this album and love it as much as I do? There are some gems missing (like "I Still Believe/Pure Imagination" and the Morales remix of "I Still Believe") but other than that this album is pure fire. I remember buying it at Best Buy when it came out and hadn't actually heard a lot of the house mixes because I don't have those singles and loving all of them. I also love "Miss You" and had that sh*t on repeat. It really shows that she is the undisputed queen of remixes. (Thursday 11 October 2018; 03:15)

Re: Mike Will made it (84,608) (84,728) by loverboy from Canada "Ribbon" is one of my all-time faves of hers. I listen to that obsessively when MOAIA came out. Such a good song. (Thursday 11 October 2018; 03:06)

Re: Did someone on here criticize Carrie Underwood? (84,717) (84,727) by Atwood from NY I know and you are very correct. I came across this on twitter earlier, Mariah: *exists* Locals: can't sing- Mariah: *sings* Locals: lipped - Mariah: *sings acapella* Locals: she is just standing there - Mariah: *dances* Locals: does she have to wear that.. Mariah will forever never make people not happy and it's sad. (Thursday 11 October 2018; 03:02)

Re: AMA choreography (84,715) (84,726) by 123 from USA Tanaka gets a bad rep. He seems to care about her and refreshingly stays in the background. I wasn't to sure about him at first but I like him. Mimi seems happy and she finally wrote a happy love song instead a sad song about heartbreak. Are we getting a song on the album where Mariah moans a la Donna Summer - lmao. How about that for the same ole thing - lol. (Thursday 11 October 2018; 02:52)

Re: AMA choreography (84,720) (84,725) by Special K from USA Hmmm, I see you be checking my baby out. You know his choreography better than me, lol. (Thursday 11 October 2018; 02:48)

With You video (84,724) by Special K from USA Well it's about damn time Mariah put out a good, well shot, well directed, classy music video. I love it. With You is starting to grow on me now. Oh boy. (Thursday 11 October 2018; 02:44)

With You music video (84,723) by Nicole from US It has no storyline and captures beauty shots of Mariah. But at least it was way classier and shows her skinny legend self. I love LA. (Thursday 11 October 2018; 02:23)

Re: AMA / disgruntled fans sticking around (84,719) (84,722) by 123 from USA Who is giving excuses? We are saying she ain't changing so why not move on? She's done the same s&@t for a minute now. Why stick around? You don't like the new music, don't like her writing, hate her vocals on record. Y'all go on a tangent when she lips (she's been doing this since 97 as you pointed out) and guess what, she's doing it even more now and surprise, will continue to do it. Hate how she dresses even though she's been wearing mermaid dresses since 1901 and had the twins out since she bought and paid for them. None of these things are new and she isn't reverting back to a better "version" of herself. I'm convinced you all just repeat the same thing but become more visceral with every response just to get likes. She can't sing like she used to and lips all the time. Where is the sham when she got blasted for the whole world to see during NYE. Everyone knows. Nobody cares. (Thursday 11 October 2018; 02:17)

Re: AMA / disgruntled fans sticking around (84,719) (84,721) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway Randy, then you completely missed my point. My point is that people age and change differently. Just because Gladys can still sing like she used to, doesn't mean that every singer ever lived should have the same ability that many years into their careers. Federer has been in the top of tennis over a decade, does that mean that every tennis player that have been number 1 should have the same longevity? If you think it's getting old hearing that she can't sing like 20 years ago because of age, how old do think it is to hear people like you rambling about how she should be able to sing? Listening to you guys is like listening to a person complaining about how awful it is being fat while eating a burger. Keep on following Mariah and keep on getting disappointed, you guys must be masochists. (Thursday 11 October 2018; 02:13)

Re: AMA choreography (84,715) (84,720) by RibbonB from USA Bahahaha, she bought him some choreography. Better that than boys bopping around, biting knuckles, popping collars and dusting off their nails. (Thursday 11 October 2018; 01:47)

Re: AMA / disgruntled fans sticking around (84,708) (84,719) by Randy from USA Dude that 20+ years in the business excuse is getting old. Did you see Gladys sing last night? CeCe Winans sing last night? Watch Patti Labelle sing at the 2004 Divas concert, 44 years into her career. Watch Aretha at Divas Live in 98 sing 42 years into her career. Then go back and watch MC lip sync on Oprah in 97, 7 years into her career or sound a mess on The View singing Vision of Love in 98, 8 years into her career. Or wait, watch Whitney embarrass MC in 99 on the Oscars. Oh wait, MC's mic wasn't loud enough, she had a cold, she has nodules, didn't grow up in the church, is insecure, ear piece isn't working, has nuances in her voice other singers can't get, do I need to go on with the excuses? (Thursday 11 October 2018; 01:30)

With You (84,718) by B from USA Watch the exclusive video premiere of With You tonight on Entertainment Tonight at 7:30pm ET. (Thursday 11 October 2018; 01:20)

Did someone on here criticize Carrie Underwood? (84,717) by Ethan from United States I don't think so. Did I see it correctly that she stood in one place? So was it the "singing" or "moving" part a problem? Is delivering a "performance" (doing a choreography to a pre-recorded track or having a head microphone and pretending to sing) a norm these days? Gotta be consistent people. You can't have both ways. (Thursday 11 October 2018; 01:17)
