Re: Couldn't Give That Away (80,672) (80,675) by Bill from the UK My great-grandfather died on the Titanic that night which is why I lapsed into snowflake mode. (Saturday 27 January 2018; 15:01)

Re: Couldn't Give That Away (80,672) (80,674) by Tijl from Belgium Thank you for standing by me Andrew dahling. I am astounded by the lack of humour on this board. I was a teenager in the '90s when being overtly PC wasn't the esprit-tendance and one was aloud to be outspoken and have a personality. (Saturday 27 January 2018; 14:45)

Re: Mariah's most inspiring song (80,663) (80,673) by Andrew from UK Randy, I love you. Still in January and you've mentioned the TTR background singers. Bracing myself for Right To Dream February, and mentions of 11th grade English students writing about Mariah in March. Kidding. I do love you, however. Even though you don't call anymore. Or send me flowers. (Okay, you never sent me flowers, but I think maybe you should.) (Saturday 27 January 2018; 14:17)

Re: Couldn't Give That Away (80,653) (80,672) by Andrew from UK You didn't insult anyone or anything. The usually level-headed Bill lapsed into a snowflake for a moment and tried to shame you with an argumentum ad absurdum by which someone doesn't like your opinion so extrapolates offence from it and tries to publicly shame you into an apology in order to get a quick "win". Like most of the snowflakes on here. Don't apologise or recognise their social justice warrior games. It drives them insane. (No fish were hurt in the writing of this message.)

Re: Mariah's most inspiring song (80,663) (80,670) by Shezz from Pk What about Right to Dream? (Saturday 27 January 2018; 05:16)

Re: Why, why, why? (80,666) (80,669) by Susana from USA Yes, I agree with you Victoria. That's why I don't reply to the negativity. Just like they teach us when we are in elementary school, if we ignore the bullies they will get bored and go away. Perhaps the biggest gift would be for him to take his type of talent to the we don't know her page. Maybe that's where he posts his positive stuff and just lurks here for kicks. I refuse to give in to it. I'm only posting this type of response once, as I hope the ones that respond to him, will give up and ignore all his posts, and he goes away.

Re: Why is behavior still allowed here? (80,667) (80,668) by G.G. from USA Thanks. (Saturday 27 January 2018; 03:13)

Re: Why is behavior still allowed here? (80,664) (80,667) by Hilton from USA I agree GG. But, obviously the hint of nastiness and racism isn't strong enough for this person to be removed. Just ignore and move on. Attention seeking behavior is at an all time high these days, especially with social media being at the forefront. Just ignore it , that's the best thing you can do. People hide behind keyboards and say nasty things that they wouldn't dare say to people's faces. The DSM is filled with diagnoses for these types of people. So, move right along my love. It ain't even worth it. Bloop. (Saturday 27 January 2018; 01:16)

Why, why, why? (80,666) by Victoria from USA Why do any of you still read his posts? He's consistently negative and then will be a good little boy for awhile. I have not read anything he has to say in many, many months. He's not worth getting upset about. It's what he feeds off of. (Friday 26 January 2018; 23:51)

Re: Mariah's most inspiring song (80,661) (80,665) by RibbonB from USA Yes, I love that live performance on Letterman from 93 or 94. Both Mariah and the choir gave an inspired performance. It's like by the end if the song she commands everything to be alright. (Friday 26 January 2018; 23:18)

Why is behavior still allowed here? (80,664) by Gee from U.S.A. (New York City) To be honest we all have expressed some kind of disappointment with Mariah throughout the years. But this a place where everyone comes to discuss Mariah whether it be our like or dislikes. But when messages become disrespectful and sometimes with a racist tone that is a major problem. I personally don’t mind different stories and opinions regarding MC but it does become uncomfortable when people come here just to cause an uproar with nasty, rude, disrespectful and at times racist comments that is not cool and should never be allowed here no matter who the offender or offenders are.

Mariah's most inspiring song (80,663) by Randy from USA I gotta say, I've never been a fan of Hero. Even in 94. But I do love the mashup with Never Too Far especially her Home for the Holidays live performance in the red dress. I've always loved Anytime You Need a Friend. However, Mariah's Theme was my favorite until Through The Rain. And I can't believe it doesn't get more love in this particular discussion. Unfortunately, she's never performed it 100% live without a wall of background singers. Which really pisses me off because there is not one background singer on the song. In addition, she's abandoned it. But I can't tell y'all how many mornings on the way to work the line "shadows grow close" reminds me how dark our eternal optimist can be even in the middle of a hopeful moment. That song means a lot to me personally. I probably play it three times a week. (Friday 26 January 2018; 22:38)

Re: Mariah's most inspiring song (80,660) (80,662) by Lila from United States We are here on that. I've never met anyone else that finds Anytime You Need A Friend as inspiring as I do. It's definitely my runner up to FLAB. I also love love love My Saving Grace. (Friday 26 January 2018; 22:06)

Re: Mariah's most inspiring song (80,660) (80,661) by Bill from the UK AYNAF is a beautiful song. The "don't you ever be lonely" on the second chorus is, for some reason, the best line she's ever delivered. It gets me every time. (Friday 26 January 2018; 21:43)

Re: Mariah's most inspiring song (80,655) (80,660) by RibbonB from USA FLAB is iconic, Mimi must have been inspired when she wrote it. Anytime You Need a Friend is a favorite and most inspiring Mimi song of all time. (Friday 26 January 2018; 20:06)

Mariah’s most inspiring song (80,659) by Gee from U.S.A. (New York City) The songs of Mariah that give me inspiration and Make it Happen, and Fly like a Bird. (Friday 26 January 2018; 19:23)

Mariah's Theme (80,658) by Edward from USA When CTTA came out, I loved it. The message was empowering and the delivery while not close to that of Hero, was more emotional because it was personal to her. That was back when I felt butterflies in my stomach every time Mariah's music was about to be released. Since there wasn't social media of the Internet as we know it, I got very bad quality midi's of the song, the anticipation building up to its release. Even though she tried hard, the song didn't resonate with the rest of the world just like Hero did. The video is cheesy, and once again Mariah looking pretty. Once the high of the Rainbow album was gone, it's one of those songs that I rarely listen to anymore. (Friday 26 January 2018; 18:23)

Re: Why is this behavior still allowed here? (80,654) (80,657) by Edward from USA Oh no, you did not. You'd better hide now. Eric, keep the messageboard as it is. It's been 20 years and still going for a reason. Mariah Daily Journal's messageboard never worked because it was lambs holding hands, counting unicorns and praying from the Book of Lambs. The variety of posters and opinions on this board creates a balance that has worked for years now, why change it? I, for instance, had a disagreement with Andrew, but I said what I had to say, and moved on. Do I hate him or want him gone from the board? No, I don't. Yes, some people would be happier if he just said: "I don't like CTTA" and its "video", but how boring would that be? And if that day should come, you should ban him, lol. When Mariah was mentioned in the past, the first thing that came to mind was music, great music, but now since we've regurgitated our views on her great body of work so many times, we have don't much to talk about anymore. We're left with pictues, looks, boobs, boyfriends, rings and other personal stuff non-related to her music. Why is it that just like Justin Bieber did by offering himself for the remix to "Despacito", Mariah, who has a great ear for a hit, doesn't do the same on a regular basis. If the muse or passion is not there anymore, at least she should keep herself in the spotlight upgrading other people's projects. Beyonce had an easy #1 with Ed Sheeran, there goes one of my dream collaborations. (Friday 26 January 2018; 18:12)

Re: Why is this behavior still allowed here? (80,654) (80,656) by G.G. from USA Criticism is one thing and doesn't bother most people. Daily negativity towards MC and her fans is another. There's a huge difference. (Friday 26 January 2018; 17:41)

Re: Mariah's most inspiring song (80,632) (80,655) by Lila from United States I agree with that. I think it always changes depending on what you're going through and what type of encouragement you're needing at the moment. However, from a general standpoint Fly Like A Bird always does it for me. (Friday 26 January 2018; 17:07)

Re: Why is this behavior still allowed here? (80,652) (80,654) by Webmaster Eric from the Netherlands I remember we had this discussion 15 years ago, when some fans only wanted positive news. Well, not everything Mariah does is loved by her fans, so if Andrew doesn't like a song or video, he has the right to say so. Even if his words are rude, but Andrew loves to curse. And we all know that Andrew is always negative, so that shouldn't surprise you. If you only want positive news and positive messages, you should visit Mariah Daily Journal. (Friday 26 January 2018; 16:12)

Re: Couldn't Give That Away (80,647) (80,653) by Tijl from Belgium I do not belittle the fact that what happened with Titanic was tragic. I merely mock the song and the movie, which both were incredibly cheesy. The fact that James Cameron exploited this drama for profit is much more insulting than my quote. However, if I have insulted anybody involved or related to Titanic, Céline Dion, James Cameron, Leo or Kate or any of the fish in those waters on the very night, I am truly sorry. (Friday 26 January 2018; 15:58)

Why is this behavior still allowed here? (80,652) by G.G. from USA Webmaster, why are constant negative messages against Mariah and her fans still allowed? Didn't we just have this discussion a month or so ago? (Friday 26 January 2018; 15:55)

Re: Couldn't Give That Away (80,636) (80,651) by G.G. from USA Negative, degrading, and bitter, as per usual. Lonely, sad, soul. (Friday 26 January 2018; 15:53)
