Re: New album title ideas (80,444) (80,446) by Edward from USA She could be so creative with the next album title. She could dedicate it to her cougaree Tanaka and name it: "The Asian Persuasion" or "The Lotus... Not from Aguilera" or "I Don't Know Her". She could also go back to her gender neutral album names and call it: "Ribbon", "The Ring", "Tea", "Gown" or "My Humps". I know for sure there's going to be a song called "Shrek" in the new album.

Re: New album title ideas (80,444) (80,445) by Hilton from USA The Return , with this she could give us a mixed bag of old flavor mixed in with her genius musical ear to what still can be current. (Thursday 18 January 2018; 01:48)

New album title ideas (80,444) by Marissa from USA Since we're on the topic of a new album, what would you like her to name it? I've heard "The Vindication of Mimi" from several people but I think it's too cheesy and too obvious of a play on TEOM. I'm thinking something like "The Lotus" which represents a flower that emerges from a dirty, muddy environment and rises to the surface unscathed. (Wednesday 17 January 2018; 22:54)

Re: New album (80,442) (80,443) by MusicfanJ from Germany I'm for a 12-songs album too. As most of you said, quality instead of quantity. (Wednesday 17 January 2018; 18:17)

Re: New album (80,440) (80,442) by T from USA Also it means she doesn't have to delay the album a whole year for just three more songs. Can you imagine how thight MIAM would've been as 12 tracks and released right after American Idol? Sure we wouldn't have gotten "Money", "One More Try" or "Heavenly" but the album as a whole would've been better and sold better. (Wednesday 17 January 2018; 14:23)

Mariah (80,441) by B from USA Billboard published an article (or shared a previously published article on Facebook this morning) about Mariah lyrics that can be used to combat shade. (Wednesday 17 January 2018; 13:22)

Re: New album (80,438) (80,440) by this_is_qhm from the Philippines Truth. Most of Mariah's best critically received albums (debut, Daydream and Butterfly) consisted of 12 tracks each. But these were really tight, strong and little-to-no-filler albums. These days, we observe the increasing practice of going back to this trend of brief releases. Most 15+ track albums that we've seen since the 2000s are usually overblown albums that include a lot of tacked on filler to make the consumers think that they're getting more of their money's worth somehow, as if quantity is necessarily equal to quality, when really all this marketing tactic does is just highlight the disparity between an album's strengths and weaknesses. Mariah should go into making an album with a clear idea of what she wants it to sound and a target number of tracks. This not only ensures brevity and cohesiveness but also helps her be focused enough to cut the weaker songs, ultimately resulting in a stronger set of tracks. (Wednesday 17 January 2018; 11:32)

Re: Merch (80,401) (80,439) by Deedre aka MiTodoChop @HBF from Canada For me personally, I see the humor in the shirts, it's just not something I would wear. For people that would, that's cool. I think sometimes things get labelled "hate" but it'd not really hate it is a matter of preference. If it floats your boat, do it. I'd buy the mug on the "tea" shirt if it was available.

Re: New album (80,434) (80,438) by Bill from the UK I agree. Albums like CB and Memoirs need an entire afternoon set aside to listen and appreciate them end to end. I'm all for the 10-12 track albums. (Tuesday 16 January 2018; 18:13)

Re: So long, Dolores (80,436) (80,437) by Shezz from Pk So nice to hear how so many of us lambs loved a voice and music so different from Mariah's. The Cranberries were a huge part of my childhood. Rest in peace Dolores. (Tuesday 16 January 2018; 17:29)

Re: So long, Dolores (80,435) (80,436) by Mara from United States She was definitely another part of my growing up in the 90's as my alternative to Mariah. Zombie and Linger bring back so many memories, such a memorable voice. Very sad indeed. (Tuesday 16 January 2018; 16:46)

Re: So long, Dolores (80,426) (80,435) by MC1989 from Spain One of the greatest icons of the 90's. So sad. (Tuesday 16 January 2018; 15:26)

New album (80,434) by T from USA Now that she's back with Sony I hope she goes back to having her 12 track albums. To me it was the perfect number of songs (not too short, not too many fillers). It makes the artist be strick about what goes on the album and make tough choices. (Tuesday 16 January 2018; 15:08)

Re: Kidspace / MLK / pics (80,432) (80,433) by Licia from USA Yes I was so impressed with how well Roc was reading. It was a cute family moment and pic. The kids looked happy. (Tuesday 16 January 2018; 13:31)

Re: Kidspace / MLK / pics (80,429) (80,432) by RibbonB from USA Yes, that was so cute and Rocky really reads well. Such cute twins and so smart. (Tuesday 16 January 2018; 10:23)

Re: The ring (80,418) (80,431) by this_is_qhm from the Philippines Exactly. It's just incomprehensible to me how to believe that the Mariah who does her best to pretend that Glitter (again, not her worst album) never happened and the Mariah who tackily chooses to keep a ring from an ex-fiance are one and the same person. (Tuesday 16 January 2018; 09:30)

Re: The ring (80,427) (80,430) by Sarah from Netherlands At least turn it into a different piece of jewellery like a necklace or something but wearing it as a ring is tacky. But whatever, she's gonna do what she wants to do anyway. (Tuesday 16 January 2018; 06:58)

Kidspace / MLK / pics (80,429) by Lila from United States Awww loving the pics and vid of Mariah, Nick, Beth, and the kids at the Kidspace Children's Museum for MLK Jr. Day. They’re so cute. I do like that they always do fun educational things for the kids. (Tuesday 16 January 2018; 03:52)

Re: So long, Dolores (80,426) (80,428) by Edward from USA Such a unique voice indeed. The 90's wouldn't have been the same without Dolores and The Cranberries. RIP Dolores. Just 46, so sad. (Tuesday 16 January 2018; 01:39)

Re: The ring (80,418) (80,427) by Lila from United States It would be great for Mariah to fully distance herself from the horrible and tacky past few years, including that failed engagement, but she wouldn't be her without keeping some remnant of stupid around. Hence, the pet and the ring still making appearances. Also, I doubt she will because I highly doubt that there's any sentiment attached to the ring. She most likely sees it as being like any other cocktail ring she owns and always has. (Tuesday 16 January 2018; 01:06)

So long, Dolores (80,426) by this_is_qhm from the Philippines Such a unique voice. Gone too soon. Thank you for being one of the defining sounds of the 90s. May you rest in peace. (Monday 15 January 2018; 23:45)

Re: The ring (80,424) (80,425) by Licia from USA He looks like an idiot doing so. Lol. (Monday 15 January 2018; 22:36)

Re: The ring (80,419) (80,424) by RibbonB from USA He is just there to two-step and fetch it. (Monday 15 January 2018; 21:26)

The ring (80,423) by Gee from U.S.A. (New York City) There is already an agreement in place that Mariah gets to keep the ring so who knows where this story really comes from. To be honest I don't mind Mariah keeping the ring but I do feel she should give the ring a rest as she has many other rings she can sport around and not be reminded of a failed engagement. (Monday 15 January 2018; 20:40)

Re: The ring (80,418) (80,422) by B from USA If I was her I'd keep it or sell it. However, I think she should stop wearing it. (Monday 15 January 2018; 18:51)
