Re: Battle of the albums (75,857) (75,860) by Terna from Nigeria Honestly I feel the same way too, there's just no comparing "Emotions" to "Mariah Carey". That debut is still the best so far by any (all caps) new artist, point blank period. There's a reason why the album "Emotions" suffered a sophomore slump. It's just bland, dark, headache inducing and has absolutely no personality of Mariah on it, it's just empty. Talk about a snooze fest. It's my least favorite and least played Mariah album. Only tracks worth mentioning are "Can't Let Go", "The Wind" and "Make it Happen". Meanwhile the debut has "Vision of Love" and "Love Takes Time", two powerful, timeless, classics from the same album. Enough said. (Monday 29 May 2017; 20:33)

Re: Martyn's vigil (75,839) (75,859) by Matty from Vancouver Canada Simply Beautiful. The number of lives he touched is remarkable. (Monday 29 May 2017; 19:27)

Re: I was born at night, not last night (75,844) (75,858) by Lila from United States They all are a bunch of adults acting like five year olds, not even old enough to keep their stories straight, while hiding behind fake personas. Mariah plays innocent. Stella plays sister and loud foul-mouthed enforcer. Her family turned employees play fake family. Then of course, there's superiority complex having Shawn who takes to social media to play at being Mariah's knight in shining armor and the only one she can trust when he's just another person who goes along with every dumb thought and action. All of these kids stuck in adult bodies but no real adult around to give a sensible word and steer away from danger. (Monday 29 May 2017; 18:21)

Battle of the albums (75,857) by Pablo from Spain I think I'm the only one who just doesn't like "Emotions". The title track is one of my least fave singles (I almost typed "least", but it is better than "I Don't"). While I love "Can't Let Go", "Make It Happen" and "So Blessed", the album just doesn't speak to me. The only album I like less from Mariah is "Memoirs". I love the self-titled debut. I love every song on it. So... I vote for Mariah Carey in the battle of the albums. (Monday 29 May 2017; 18:09)

Mariah on Wendy, "House" story (75,856) by Chicago Lamb from USA This story of Mariah being 4 hours late, demanding stuffed lamb toys, white roses, changing plot, song, etc. is clearly (all caps) just a publicity stunt to promote the movie. I hope we see through all the fake news. But it is what it is. They use her name for negative reports and at the end of the day I don't think Mariah or her camp minds. (Monday 29 May 2017; 17:28)

Re: New music and movie? (75,845) (75,849) (75,855) by Haiji Toro from USA Yes, it was vague. I tried searching for more info but I had no luck. I do appreciate it though, thanks. (Monday 29 May 2017; 17:13)

Re: I was born at night, not last night (75,837) (75,854) by Susana from USA I had hope Shawn wouldn't succumb to the "yes" people. I wonder how many if any she's got left. I know Lee will never, but he loves her like us, so there's hope he could talk sense into her with possible fear of alienation. (Monday 29 May 2017; 16:48)

Martyn and "Till the End of time" (75,853) by Sheila from United States Thank you for reminding me of this beautiful song. (Monday 29 May 2017; 15:39)

Re: I was born at night, not last night (75,844) (75,852) by Lexingz from Estonia Yeah, it makes you think M and Bryan were just doing reshoots of their "relationship". (Monday 29 May 2017; 15:26)

Re: Battle of the albums round 1 (75,850) (75,851) by Edouard from France I totally agree. "The First Album" has more hits, and even the songs like "Sent from up above" and "There's got to be a way" are radio friendly and could have been hits. Emotions is more cohesive, almost like a concept album. I think I prefer Emotions as an album because it's less instant and obvious, but the first album is just so good as an introduction . (Monday 29 May 2017; 15:10)

Re: Battle of the albums round 1 (75,811) (75,850) by darrian liu from taiwan It's almost impossible to pick between the eponymous album and Emotions. I feel like debut album has the higher highs, the best moments of Mariah Carey outshines the best moments of Emotions, but Emotions is a more cohesive, consistent album, whereas Mariah Carey almost sounds like it's trying hard to show Mariah's multifaceted quality as an artist because it dips on many different genres. It's a tough one but I'm currently leaning more to Emotions. (If I were to think about this a few days ago, I would've answered Mariah Carey. It changes with my mood tbh.)

Re: New music and movie? (75,845) (75,849) by Webmaster Eric from the Netherlands "Would you know anything about those collaborations I mentioned before?" Nope, sorry. But if I find out more, I will sure post it. Btw, I found that article about her collaboration very vague. (Monday 29 May 2017; 09:44)

Re: When Martyn met Mariah (75,842) (75,848) by Shezz from Pk I just read a message floating on twitter from Martyn's mother who said she sent Martyn off on his journey in his Mariah t-shirt of her in a skimpy outfit. (Monday 29 May 2017; 08:34)

Re: Martyn's vigil (75,840) (75,847) by Shezz from Pk Wow that brought tears to my eyes that was beautiful. Thanks for posting that Lee. I hope Mariah gets to see this too. (Monday 29 May 2017; 07:17)

Re: Battle of the albums round 1 (75,834) (75,846) by Mara from United States I have to go with Emotions too. While I love the debut and it was what made me a fan in the first place with songs like IDWC, LTT, VOL, AIL and Someday (I think her look in that video is iconic) sorry Mariah, I know you are embarrassed or whatever but that's the look I always wanted to emulate in my teens. But back to the music, when she released Emotions, I don't think I played anything else for months. The tone in her voice, those haunting and dark moody songs. That opening to You're So Cold, Can't Let Go (those perfectly executed and placed whistles) the doo woopy So Blessed, AYDT, the timeless Til The End Of Time and the closing of The Wind. The whole album has mood setting to it that feels complete. I feel like she felt this album more. Emotions is very underrated to be honest. (Monday 29 May 2017; 03:42)

Re: New music and movie? (75,836) (75,845) by Haiji Toro from USA My apologies Eric. I honestly skipped over that one. I sometimes do read the news you post but mainly if it has to do with new music. I didn't care to read that one due to the title. I try not to read about the negative stuff, since by now, I'm not at all surprised by her diva antics and dumb decisions. No shade at all, just my honest opinion. Thank you for posting my massage though. My messages tend to get ignored the majority of the time lol so would you know anything about those collaborations I mentioned before? (Monday 29 May 2017; 00:52)

Re: I was born at night, not last night (75,837) (75,844) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Preach sister. I was thinking the same. First of all, like I mentioned before, no one was keeping tabs on Mariah's "relationship" with Bryan and the only stories we got were stories her team pushed. They are no "power couple" hence any stories on them is not worth the effort for any outlets. It can't be a coincidence that right after the stories "broke out" of their break up from TMZ, Bryan was suddenly not seen in her entourage, whereas right up until that he was all around the world with her. Also right after Bryan's exit, we kept on getting new pictures of Nick and Mariah together on a daily basis with stories about them getting together again, but right after Bryan got back Nick is completely out of the picture? I also noticed that when Bryan was gone the necklace from James was also gone, but now it's back from the time Bryan got back, like what on earth? Now with Shawn's exchange with the fan, it again doesn't add up. Their "narratives" and stories have always been inconsistent and silly. It's like a 5 year old is their PR executive, oh wait maybe it's Sasha. Y'all thought Mariah's World season 1 is messy, wait until you get season 2. (Monday 29 May 2017; 00:17)

Re: Stephen from London (75,824) (75,843) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Haha Andrew, I can't. I didn't even see the initial exchange and actually scrolled down to go and see what on earth you were talking about. I don't even drink, so I can assure you that you saw it right.

When Martyn met Mariah (75,842) by Lee from UK This says it all really. (Sunday 28 May 2017; 22:17)

Flowers (75,841) by Jamie from UK Went to see the flowers and tributes today in Manchester, saw many for our fellow lamb Martyn. (Sunday 28 May 2017; 22:02)

Martyn's vigil (75,840) by Lee from UK Sorry Eric, this is probably a better link. And here is a link to a speech by his mother. There are more videos available linked to these tweets so for those who wanted to be there but couldn't, I thought these would be helpful. (Sunday 28 May 2017; 21:44)

Martyn's vigil (75,839) by Lee from UK A vigil was held for Martyn tonight in his home town. Here is a touching rendition of Till the End of Time being performed there. He was obviously well loved. (Sunday 28 May 2017; 21:36)

Re: Mariah on TMZ (75,825) (75,838) by Lila from United States I found it to be more confirmation that she has TMZ in her back pocket. The paps were definitely called and really the TMZ bus just happened to be there. The woman recording was asking her if she and Nick were back together. At first Mariah thought she was asking her about Tonka Toy but then the woman corrected her and Mariah said "We were married, honey. We took two years to get divorced. He's a great guy, though, a great person, a great father." Then the woman proceeds to ask her for advice on getting married. Mariah says "don't do it" then she laughs and says "just be sure about it". I guess it was a nice "interview" though, strangely enough. She didn't ramble, which was nice. (Sunday 28 May 2017; 16:30)

I was born at night, not last night (75,837) by Lila from United States Everyone is really on a mission to play us for fools. Now Mariah's dumb nephew is on Twitter saying that 1) she and Tonka Toy never broke up and 2) Mariah hasn't recorded much for the new album and then in a rude reply to another fan that she's just started recording it. I guess number one isn't a total lie because how can you break up with someone you were never with but looking at it in its given context, it's like: so where did he suddenly disappear to and why? Why did Mariah say to TMZ that she was enjoying being single? Why all those stories that came from TMZ first and foremost, who we all know Mariah has in her back pocket thanks to Stella, calling him a golddigger and jealous? Why is it that now that he's resurfacing, Mariah's back to wearing the necklace that James gifted her when she was hanging with Nick, she ditched it? As for number two, that answer certainly does clash with the tweet "from her" that said that she couldn't wait to finish her album in the Bahamas. Mariah has also been saying that she's been listening to the new music. Definitely, gives off the impression that she's been recording a lot more than anyone thought. Why mention finish if it hasn't even begun and now we're hearing it's barely anything. They swear we were all born yesterday. Note to them: before you try to play the fans as fools, get your lies in order and remember them. (Sunday 28 May 2017; 16:27)

New music and movie? (75,836) by Haiji Toro from USA Hey guys, hope all is well. I came across some sites stating upcoming new music and a movie role. Supposedly, MC will be on DJ Kaled's new album on a song with Migos and Travis Scott. She will also play a part in a movie with Will Ferrell and Amy Poehler, named The House. Can someone please confirm this? Is there more info on any of this? [Webmaster: Sometimes I wonder if anyone reads the news on this website.] (Sunday 28 May 2017; 16:27)
