Re: Trey Lorenz explains why "CLG" never went #1 (77,208) (77,227) by Musti from UK Thanks for that. I didn't realise it was pulled from the stores. I always assumed the reason it missed #1 was because Sony was too concerned about the critic's opinion of Mariah's whistles and removed the song's ultimate climax from the radio edit, making it less than what it is. That whistle is just iconic. (Monday 17 July 2017; 15:40)

Re: TGIFY 7/15/17 (77,224) (77,226) by Dominique from Cape Town, South Africa I dream of an accoustic set with Mariah. As many have been saying here, she could rework her songs to suit her current vocals, a few with just guitar would be perfect. She surely doesn't lack the creativity to change things up, so why not Mariah? I'd love to hear "Right to dream" and "Help me make it" live. Really live though, no pre-records or butterflies singing in the background. (Monday 17 July 2017; 15:21)

Thank you for the "negativity" (77,225) by Dominique from Cape Town, South Africa It's nice to know that there are mostly objective peeps here. We all love Mariah and we hope for better things for her. The day that this place turns into a board for "Mariah yes-men", I'll be sure to leave. So thank you for the "negativity" folks.

Re: TGIFY 7/15/17 (77,221) (77,224) by darrian liu from taiwan Yes to an acoustic rendition of My All. Ugh. It would be eargasmic. (Monday 17 July 2017; 14:16)

Re: Sorry (77,206) (77,223) by Terna from Nigeria Haha. Looking forward to meeting you in person someday (high note). You too are my fave on here easily. (Monday 17 July 2017; 13:26)

Re: Stop the negativity (77,174) (77,222) by Terna from Nigeria Well, better rose coloured filled posts than hate filled ones right? Thanks anyways. (Monday 17 July 2017; 12:46)

Re: TGIFY 7/15/17 (77,215) (77,221) by Edouard from France That's what I thought but you never know. I believe it is strong. TGIFY is probably my favorite moment of the whole show. I think IDWC, OSD would have sounded great had they been given the same treatment. My All as well with a real acoustic guitar moment. (Monday 17 July 2017; 09:50)

Re: TGIFY 7/15/17 (77,212) (77,220) by Shezz from Pk I believe he was being sarcastic and actually meant to show she can still sing. (Monday 17 July 2017; 05:59)

Re: TGIFY 7/15/17 (77,207) (77,219) by Licia from USA She did really good. I'm hoping she can keep this up for the tour. Unfortunately she has a lot to prove because a lot of those people are going into this hoping she'll fail. (Monday 17 July 2017; 04:25)

Re: Trey Lorenz explains why "CLG" never went #1 (77,208) (77,218) by Licia from USA I never knew they pulled CLG and I always thought CLG was a number. Maybe because I love the song so much I just made it a number one in my mind. Lol. Let's talk about how sexy and beautiful she looked in that long black dress. She was killing it. She looked nice in all the pictures, but that one made me stop and rewind. (Monday 17 July 2017; 04:20)

Re: Stop the negativity (77,213) (77,217) by Licia from USA I love her music and I always will. No matter how mad I get at some of her decisions that's the one thing that will never change. However, loving her music will not prevent me from voicing my disappointment when I feel she's not trying (for example not preparing herself days in advance when she knows she has performances coming up), she's just taking the easy way out(avoiding doing anything that pertains to singing), or her and her team are not doing their job to protect a brand that she worked so hard to build (allowing people to believe she's just a boob showing, two timing, boozy diva who can no longer sing). It angers me to no end that people take her as a joke now and she's not doing anything to remind them who the hell she is and why she's one of the greatest. (Monday 17 July 2017; 04:08)

"Vision of Love" climax and "Emotions" intro 7/15/17 (77,216) by 123 from USA More vocal fails. What a car wreck. Can't help but watch. (Monday 17 July 2017; 03:56)

Re: TGIFY 7/15/17 (77,212) (77,215) by Licia from USA Rj was being sarcastic. Smh lol. (Monday 17 July 2017; 03:43)

Re: TGIFY 7/15/17 (77,207) (77,214) by Andrew from UK "She just sort of... yells in tune I guess is one way of putting it" to quote a recent on-the-mark post. If you tell me that that strained slow shouting to TGIFY is nice to listen to then I would question either your hearing or your sanity. I've heard people burp the alphabet. It's great they can do it, for sure, but I'm not sure I'd willingly put myself through listening to it. However, on a more positive note, if she's going to sing Emotions properly again then I'll listen to that. Replacing the singing of "You got me feeling emotions" with blurting "Gummy feeling" changes the whole song for the worse. Not least because I'm quite certain songs about elderly felatio is not something anybody wants to hear. (Monday 17 July 2017; 02:51)

Re: stop the negativity (77,210) (77,213) by Deedre aka MiTodoChop @HBF from Canada JD I don't know if you are addressing me or not, but I am acknowledging the changes. I do not esect things to be the way they were when Mariah was 20. I was honest when Mariah's World came out that the "reality tv" aspects of the show weren't my cup of tea and I stated so. However I still love Mariah's music, I still support her as an artist and I am not judging her or hating on her if I say her last few singles weren't my favorite in her catalogue. I still enjoy her live performances, I still anticipate new music from her and I stiil want to see the best for her as a person. (Monday 17 July 2017; 00:07)

Re: TGIFY 7/15/17 (77,207) (77,212) by Edouard from France Are you alright? (Sunday 16 July 2017; 23:39)

Re: Trey Lorenz explains why "CLG" never went #1 (77,208) (77,211) by Edouard from France Amazing. They didn't want her to believe her songwritting alone could get her a number #1 song. She proved it enough times though. (Sunday 16 July 2017; 23:37)

Re: Stop the negativity (77,210) by JD from United States I didn't want to drag on and on about that post, but haven't you changed since you were 20? I've changed since last month, I just don't have millions of people watching me change and expecting me to act how I used to be, she's gone through like four engagements, two kids and a lot of other stuff we don't know about, it's not surprising that her priorities have changed. I wish she was more driven like from what I've seen in the 90s and TEOM era but there's really no point in harping on it, at least that's how I see it. Have you watched videos from her recently Vegas shows? If you haven't already search Mariahxlambily on YouTube and you'll see she's sounding pretty damn good. (Sunday 16 July 2017; 23:20)

Vegas 7/15/17 (77,209) by 123 from USA Here are some highlights. I have no question now that she isn't drinking for the time being. If she keeps improving like this she has the potential to kill on the Lionel tour. She really needs great vocal performances here in the States, especially when performing with another Legend like Lionel who is also a singer/songwriter. (Sunday 16 July 2017; 23:18)

Trey Lorenz explains why "CLG" never went #1 (77,208) by 123 from USA I remember this. Good tidbit to know. Sony was controlling and manipulating her career since the beginning. (Sunday 16 July 2017; 23:03)

TGIFY 7/15/17 (77,207) by 123 from USA I can't even listen to this. Andrew you were right, she can't sing anymore. (Sunday 16 July 2017; 22:52)

Re: Sorry (77,168) (77,206) by Edouard from France Yes Terna. I told you I was gonna meet you somewhere along the hight road. And you're still my favorite here and I don't even agree with you about the jazz album idea. I would love it. (Sunday 16 July 2017; 22:09)

Re: Stop the negativity (77,203) (77,205) by Edouard from France Of course, but a lot of us here are not able to be honest and positive at the same time. They're just right down negative. Of course Mariah's priorities have changed. She's just as driven but in a different way. What she's doing is quite amazing to be honest. (Sunday 16 July 2017; 21:53)

Re: Thoughts (77,167) (77,204) by Mara from United States I just want to say a huge "thank you" B, MusicfanJ, Victor, Licia, for your prayers and well wishes, and RJ for that very comforting message that I needed to read. It's a testament to Mariah when her music is what people crave when going through tough times. Thank you again for the prayers. RJ I hope everything you went through is better now and I'll keep you in my prayers as well. (Sunday 16 July 2017; 17:55)

Re: Stop the negativity (77,142) (77,203) by Deedre aka MiTodoChop @HBF from Canada You can be positive and still be honest about the fact that Mariah's priorities about the nature of her career have changed. That's not bashing or judging her. It's just being truthful. When she wants something different she'll do it. (Sunday 16 July 2017; 14:35)
