Loverboy (108,223)
by BFF from United States
| |
|
|
Oh, Robert Anthony. You know all of those gospel types have tons of pent up sexual energy, that's why Aretha had to do secular music rather than just gospel lol. I care about Mariah's spiritual needs, but my girl needs to get loved down as well.

Lol. It is Sunday BFF. You and I were thinking about MC in two totally different realms. I am trying to get her back in church to help MC reach the top of her soprano again. Lol.

Loverboy (108,222)
by Edward from USA

It's double entendre, just like some of lyrics in Honey. So, technically she was coming every time he called her and she was also having multiple loud orgasms too. Michael Jackson wrote a song about her called "Dirty Mariah".

Loverboy (108,218)
by BFF from United States
| |
|

I have always wondered something about one of the lines in "Loverboy". When Mariah sings "When he invites me over, I come every time," did she mean she goes over to hang with him every time she is invited or does she mean that he brings her to orgasm every time? She was dating Luis at the time the song was recorded, so if it's the latter, he must have been loving her down.
The songs lyrics give me the same vibe as the "Honey" lyrics where I am unsure if Mariah's being intentionally provocative or doing her coquettish "I'm Mary Poppins" shtick and playing dumb about the double entendres lol.

Terna, I was thinking today that MC should try a more spiritual church method to improve her voice. Gospel artist and pastor Kim Burrell could help MC by getting her to do a couple of church performances after a month of strengthening her voice with her Kim Burrell could help MC improve her voice with some old church hymns without all of the studio gimmicks. Because He Lives, Lead Me Oh Lord and I Surrender My All are the perfect hymn songs for improving your vocal skills. I am just thinking how I love to hear MC sing gospel songs.

Voice (108,187)
by Terna from Nigeria

Honestly, I want Mariah to try a voice coach and speech therapist first before considering surgery. Build her main voice back (no whistle register - neglect this register for a while, it is parasitic on the main voice). A change of lifestyle choices too can make a world of difference. Get disciplined like your life depends on it, because honestly it does, the "Mariah Carey" brand is mainly her voice. Cut out bad habits (if any) she picked up along the way, that came with the fame (bubbly, late nights partying, smoking etc). To be able to go into the studio and wow with one-takes or her ability to step on stage and command the entire show as she once used to with just singing is going to required real discipline and determination cos she's older now.

Let's vote for "the" Rock and Roll Hall of Fame nominee (108,217)
by Brad from USA
| |
|
|
The world is crazy now but we know why we are here and what she has given us and the world. Who of is the same as we once were, or perfect? It is not about that. In my opinion, this nomination (and last year's) are nearly 33 years overdue. When she hit that high note on Emotions in 1992, we were all floored and we still ain't picked ourselves up right. But alas, I have been a lamb since the First Vision, many, many moments ago. And I thank her from the bottom of my heart for the joy she has brought me over 35 years. Thank you, MC. Thank you. You are forever my "sound scroll to the sky". And yes, it may take until "someday" to get in. But know in your heart that you will. They can't take away merit.

Rock and Roll Hall of Fame (108,215)
by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End
| |
|

Lee, it is hypocrisy out of context if common sense and fairness were the template but unfortunately not in context. There are certain heights within all industries (music, film, tv etc) where "paying your dues" goes beyond payola. Mariah is never gonna do either of those things. She's by no means a saint, self-appointed or otherwise, but she's not gonna be celebrated to the extreme extent that some of her and though it may not seem so, outta actually a blessing.
I don't know another superstar as denigrated, maligned, sabotaged and back-bitten by her collaborators as Mariah. They take her choice of not fighting dirty as blood in the water. The ones who get the industry accolades for sneezing in spring are also the ones who are seen as sharks. Mariah is a dolphin at most in these circles, she doesn't inspire fear, nor should she. I pray she never joins the ranks of most awarded by industry insiders. Leave that to the coalition of the willing who need not be named to be understood as the apex predators who we all know and some of you love. We love the AMA's and all the international fan-based awards though. My 2025ยข.

Mariah living out the Butterfly lyrics in reverse? (108,214)
by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End
| |
|
|
Well, that was a rhetorical question because I actually believe that she is living out the Butterfly lyrics in real time, but in reverse (maybe even the whole album, at this point). I remember in my Jr High days (might have been 7th grade), we buried stuff, letters mostly, for my class. It was for a "time capsule" or whatever and it feels like even though Mariah wrote that album pretty much in real time back then in '96-'97- that "time capsule" got unearthed and now the whole album feels like something she could release today and not miss a beat. I've had this feeling for a while. Anyway, sending my to all. May love conquer all, always.

I voted and I asked my Facebook to vote and my gay Facebook group to vote. I guess I am a Stan. I think I'm pissed that all of her peers (Whitney, Janet, Madonna and Mary) are in and she's not. Down the road if Celine gets in before MC, it would mean some things about the industry's feelings about her that a lot of us aren't willing to face.

Mariah's '90s background singers were on another level. Their voices were so powerful and soulful, and they blended perfectly with Mariah's strong, unique tone. Trey wasn't really in that league, those ladies could blow. Being realistic, Mariah wouldn't be able to keep up with that kind of vocal power behind here these days. She really needs to get her voice back in shape first. And funny enough, she even lips part of her duet with Trey, go figure.

I've just had to do a long drive and I listened to Proctors Theatre Concert and it got me thinking. Whilst I know it won't change Mariah's current vocals I was thinking she needs an overhaul of backing singers, a sound more reminiscent of the [Price Sisters]. Singers that have more soul and depth to warm up her songs on stage. Trey isn't as good as he used to be so he's not gonna help Mariah sound any better. Even on her next album she should use vocalists that can add texture to her songs, use the background singers like they used too and get them more involved in the over all sound. I think this would enhance the quality of the album and give Mariah's vocals a boost. It worked on Music Box why not give it another go, good quality tracks reflective of her early career, filled with gospel and soulful sounds. She has nothing to loose at this point. Lay the Diva MC to bed and awaken Mariah again.

Mariah's lipping is so obvious now, and people are going in on her in the YouTube comments. She really needs to step back from touring and work with a vocal coach. Like Terna said, it's going to take serious discipline to get her voice back in shape. She should stop touring until Christmas.
It kind of feels like we're watching a different version of what happened with Whitney. Mariah fought so hard to stay true to herself, but now she's almost trapped in this diva persona. She used to talk about wanting the street cred that Mary J. Blige had, she started being raw and unapologetic. But now? It's like she's just withdrawn into this shell.
It's true that Tanaka seemed to have been a source of joy and normalcy in her life.

I just wonder if Usher can help MC with a special summer duet produced by JD and BMC. Their collaboration could be filmed and have a big budget video for a huge summer hit. He does seem to bounce back very quickly after personal relationship setbacks. Plus, he has never had any major vocal issues during his career. I know MC admires his work ethic and music.

Agreed Randy - vocal ability, financial stresses and aging (remember all neurological disorders only worsen with age) are her main problems but being with Tanaka in whatever capacity he was had helped keep her spark alive. Big or small, his departure is a part of the puzzle I think along with her other big problems. It will be interesting to see whenever MC16 does come out, how this period of her life is reflected in it.
