Tour (75,831) by steven from usa Have y'all seen her twitter page? Someone asked her to perform Anytime You Need A Friend and she responded and said it was a good idea but she doesn't know (yet). And also replied to someone that she is debating on Faded vs Thanx 4 Nothin to put on the tour set list. I think we are gonna get some never performed songs. I'm ecstatic.

Re: Why a beauty shop? (75,788) (75,829) by Tijl from Belgium Unfortunately it will become a shortlived experience. Mariah unfortunately has no credibility when it comes to fashion and beauty. Yes, there have been the collections with MAC and the perfumes are selling well (in the US that is). However she is hardly ever mentioned as a style icon because she isn't one. Her heyday as a potential fashionista ran in the 90's during the Butterfly era. Remember the Gucci ensembles? These days her look has become tacky and cheap. It takes a lot more than a good idea to build a succesful business outside of her own domain. Victoria Beckham has been a huge icon of fashion for years and yet her London store still makes no profit. Go figure. Mimi should stick to making great music. The end. (Sunday 28 May 2017; 08:12)

New album / distractions (75,828) by G.G. from USA I'm afraid with all the side jobs (trying to make Stella rich) are going to ruin the new album and its roll out. MC needs to focus on the music and not all these side gigs. Why can't Mariah see that Stella and her family are leeches? (Sunday 28 May 2017; 04:54)

Re: Battle of the albums round 1 (75,813) (75,827) by B from USA I also don't skip a song on Emotions. MIAM was like Mariah took Emotions and Memoirs and put them into a blender. She needs to grow up musically. She needs to write simple melodic songs again with lyrics that are clever and poetic without pandering to the youth of today. (Sunday 28 May 2017; 02:42)

Re: Battle of the albums round 1 (75,817) (75,826) by B from USA Matty, you articulated what I was trying to say perfectly. Mariah needs to revisit the Motown sound from the Emotions and Daydream again. The last hit single she had was a Motown homage. (Sunday 28 May 2017; 02:36)

Mariah on TMZ (75,825) by RibbonB from USA Did anyone else find that interesting that she communicated with TMZ? I'm not really clear on what she was saying, but at least it was a lighthearted "interview". She is certainly hitting all the tabloid buttons this year. (Sunday 28 May 2017; 02:03)

Re: Stephen from London (75,782) (75,824) by Andrew from UK I'm really confused. Special K was talking to Stephen Madigan. Who are you? You are answering for him? Or am I on drugs? Or are you? It's you, me or both. (Sunday 28 May 2017; 01:51)

Re: Battle of the albums round 1 (75,811) (75,823) by Andrew from UK Eddie Eddie Eddie, it's almost as if someone suggested polls not so long ago. Coming soon: an original post? Love you much. (Sunday 28 May 2017; 01:48)

Re: Brown hair (75,819) (75,822) by Anonymous from I agree too guys, the darker tones are more warming and subtle. (Sunday 28 May 2017; 00:51)

Re: Battle of the albums round 1 (75,817) (75,821) by Anonymous from However I do agree that Mariah performs better vocally on "Emotions" but I prefer the majority of songs on the debut album. (Sunday 28 May 2017; 00:49)

Re: Battle of the albums round 1 (75,817) (75,820) by Anonymous from For me it's the debut album. It set the bar and was completely effortless. I feel the "Emotions" album was a little forced at times, trying to make a bolder statement which fell flat for me. I do however appreciate its artistic creativity. The stand out song for me on that is album "Till The End If Time" however her debut has so many. From "Alone In Love", "Prisoner", "I Don't Wanna Cry", "All In Your Mind" the list is endless. I find myself skipping through more tracks on "Emotions" when compared to the debut. (Sunday 28 May 2017; 00:37)

Re: Brown hair (75,818) (75,819) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Same Marty, same. I love her darker hair moments. (Saturday 27 May 2017; 23:53)

Brown hair (75,818) by Matty from Vancouver Canada I'd love if Mariah would go brunette again. I love when her hair is brown (ah-la 1990, 1996, 2009). (Saturday 27 May 2017; 23:10)

Re: Battle of the albums round 1 (75,811) (75,817) by Matty from Vancouver Canada Emotions. I love the cohesion of this album start to finish and she started shifting towards the Doo Wop sound she explores further on Daydream. The album artwork is different from any other Mariah album art, it's in dynamic motion. To Be Around You and You're So Cold are two of her best '90's dance tracks. (Saturday 27 May 2017; 23:04)

Re: Battle of the albums round 1 (75,811) (75,816) by Merr Hasenan from Malaysia The debut album made me an instant fan but Emotions sealed the deal that I am a die hard fan. You're So Cold and And You Don't Remember are permanently in my top ten playlist. From the debut, it is only IDWC that made it up there. I love the album cover (I got a cassette) but what made me appreciate Emotions more than the first one is simply because Mariah co-produced all the tracks. For me, Emotions is the winner. (Saturday 27 May 2017; 22:47)

Re: Battle of the albums round 1 (75,811) (75,815) by Jamie from UK Emotions all the way. So many strong songs on there. I love the debut but Emotions album is so soulful and songs with great depth. (Saturday 27 May 2017; 21:50)

Re: Mariah Carey, debut album (75,808) (75,814) by Licia from USA LTT is a number one isn't it? Lol. That really shows how much I care about her number ones. When I talk about certain songs I don't love or hate it because it was a hit or not. It was just either a great song or horrible. LTT is just a great [censored] song with the added bonus of being a hit. (Saturday 27 May 2017; 21:35)

Re: Battle of the albums round 1 (75,811) (75,813) by Licia from USA Can I choose both? I can't pick one between these two. My love for the Mariah Carey album is the obvious answer of this was the album that made me pay attention and love Mariah's music. I was 12 when this album came out, but I didn't fully appreciate this album until I got older because then I actually understood what she saying in each song. Emotions is just great. A very cohesive album. Not a bad song on it in my opinion (not even the one song I skip). I'm refusing to just pick one. Lol. (Saturday 27 May 2017; 21:31)

Re: Battle of the albums round 1 (75,811) (75,812) by Bill from the UK Great subject, but already it's hard to choose (exclamation mark). Both have their strong points and are dear to me but Emotions sways it because the upper register was perfect and unashamedly present on almost every track. The production was more coherent throughout due to MC co-producing everything. The songwriting was more mature, the ballads bigger and more atmospheric, and who cannot love the collaborations with Cole and Clivilles? On top of that, the three videos are three of her best. She'd gone out of that somewhat shy/awkwardness from her first batch and seemed genuinely confident and at ease. It was soulful and the influences from gospel and the 70s worked brilliantly. Also love the album cover and those earth tones. (Saturday 27 May 2017; 21:26)

Battle of the albums round 1 (75,811) by Edward from USA Mariah Carey vs Emotions, and why. (Saturday 27 May 2017; 20:44)

Re: Article: Mariah is launching a beauty company with her manager (75,804) (75,810) by MusicfanJ from Germany So true, I thought the same with the smile. I miss her natural smile she always had. That pic with her "manager" is a bit scary to me. Who knows what's really going on? Hmm I think there's a reason Mariah is a beauty school drop-out. I want new music please. (Saturday 27 May 2017; 20:04)

Re: Martyn's tribute by M featured on Billboard (75,807) (75,809) by Andrew from UK Martyn was a legend. He just *did* stuff and was unapologetic about anything. I listened to TTEOT and felt sad when it got to the "you'll come and save my life" part and had to turn it off. But then I remembered the meet-and-greet HIV-foundation-starting Mariah Carey-scarer and how Martyn was screaming with laughter at the bat-shit crazy emails ole Juan (remember that guy? lol) was sending me and I couldn't stop smiling. I got little work done that day. It's okay to be sad but in Martyn's case it makes little sense. His every being was about being positive and having fun. One love, eh. (Saturday 27 May 2017; 18:16)

Re: Mariah Carey, debut album (75,803) (75,808) by B from USA Love Takes Time is a permanent part of her set list in Vegas. It's one of the #1's the show is based on. (Saturday 27 May 2017; 17:06)

Martyn's tribute by M featured on Billboard (75,807) by Shezz from Pk How amazing it is to see Martyn's memory live on and basically the entire world being introduced to him and the beautiful soul that he was. (Saturday 27 May 2017; 16:34)
