Re: Mariah the songwriter (74,515) (74,517) by Licia from USA I agree with most about her having others write for her. It won't hurt to have a couple songs written for her. As pointed out, if she can cover a song by another artist and make it her own she can tackle a song written specifically for her by someone else. (Saturday 15 April 2017; 15:39)

Re: Mariah the songwriter (74,509) (74,516) by B from USA I could deal with another writer writing one or two songs but definitely not the entire album. (Saturday 15 April 2017; 15:21)

Re: Mariah the songwriter (74,513) (74,515) by Special K from USA Amen to that. (Saturday 15 April 2017; 14:35)

Stella and company (74,514) by Gee from U.S.A. (New York City) Truth be told Stella and company are still very much active in Mariah's world but with this new album and era I am sure Mariah will have a different mindset. Let's just hope that Stella and company are on the same page or I can see Mariah finally waking up and giving Stella and company their walking papers. We have to remember that Stella comes from a reality show background whereas everything is fake and over exaggerated and honestly this is where a more composed manager needs to step in and handle Mariah's affairs on the musical side of things that understand Mariah and her musical legacy or should I say what can be saved from it. In opinion Stella is out to Kris Jenner the situation and get her family on at Mariah's expense and Mariah's World on E further proved that to me. Hopefully our girl can wake up soon and see Stella and company for who they really are and that is opportunists. (Saturday 15 April 2017; 12:40)

Re: Mariah the songwriter (74,509) (74,513) by Bill from the UK Look at When You Believe and All My Life. Original songs written for Mariah and she sure as hell made them her own. Her remakes almost always trump the original (I'll Be There, Without You, Open Arms) so she could easily take somebody else's song to the next level as she does with her own material.

Re: You know you're a Mariah fan when... (74,501) (74,512) by Mara from United States Aw, congratulations Jade. Sounds like an amazing unforgettable "moment". That is one party I would have lived to have been at. What amazing friends you have, as we know not all our friends share the same dedication and love for MC but do them to do that for you shows they know how much of a lamb you are and how much you must mean to them for them to put that together. Sounds very festive as M would say. Congrats again. (Saturday 15 April 2017; 06:41)

Re: You know you're a Mariah fan when... (74,504) (74,511) by Deedre aka MiTodoChop @HBF from Canada Congratulations Jade. What a beautiful and memorable thing your friends did. All the best for your wedding. (Saturday 15 April 2017; 05:54)

Cece Winans: Never have to be alone (74,510) by Ty from USA This has got to be the most beautiful song ever, Mariah would smash this, so uplifting and well sung. (Saturday 15 April 2017; 01:42)

Re: Mariah the songwriter (74,506) (74,509) by Special K from USA Hey Gee. Yes, Mariah is a great song writer and producer. That law was signed a set on the record books back in 1990. I absolutely agree and understand your point of view however, I also think if the right song came along that Mariah can interpret and still "Mariahfy" the hell out of it, I say why not? Like others have said, "You Are Not Alone", that was written by R. Kelly for Michael Jackson, is a perfect example of a great singer/songwriter being able to take a song that was written by somebody else and make it their own. We all know Michael was a prolific songwriter and producer. Now having other songwriters write a whole album for Mariah, awe hell no, but one or two songs probably wouldn't hurt.

Re: You know you're a Mariah fan when... (74,504) (74,508) by Anonymous from Thanks Shezz, your cake sounded amazing. Sounds like you have a thoughtful friends too. (Friday 14 April 2017; 21:40)

Article: Finding her voice (74,507) by RibbonB from USA Very nice, drama free press. (Friday 14 April 2017; 21:01)

Mariah the songwriter (74,506) by Gee from U.S.A. (New York City) I understand that some people on the message board would like for Mariah to allow other songwriters to write her new album. I would have to disagree, this is part of who she is. I don't mind cowriters if they are useful in bringing her musical vision to life. From her first album Mariah has written for herself and I think she should continue to do so. Just because she has not produced songs worthy of her greatness does not mean she can not write a hit. She has done so many times over now she just has to get back in her bag and believe in her talent again and I bet she will come out of this with just what the doctor ordered. But it all depends on Mariah herself. (Friday 14 April 2017; 17:53)

1999 interview (74,505) by Billy from Greece Short clip from the 1999 Pavarotti concert. Gorgeous, eloquent Mariah backstage. (Friday 14 April 2017; 17:26)

Re: You know you're a Mariah fan when... (74,492) (74,504) by Shezz from Pk That's awesome. Real friends understand how deep our lambily love for Mimi runs. My friends who really are not into M at all but have been witness to my die hard dedication to M all these years got me a Mimi Shezz cake for my birthday a while back. Ofcourse your hen party just literally takes the cake. Congrats by the way (Friday 14 April 2017; 16:07)

Re: You know you're a Mariah fan when... (74,500) (74,503) by Anonymous from Thank you Mimi, you're lovely as always. (Friday 14 April 2017; 15:43)

Re: You know you're a Mariah fan when... (74,498) (74,502) by Anonymous from Hahahaa thanks Bill. Yes it is funny, my poor friends had a Mariah overload. It was lovely and unexpected thing to do. You can only begin to imagine the people's faces putting on a bet and shed load of Mariah's walking round. (Friday 14 April 2017; 15:41)

Re: You know you're a Mariah fan when... (74,497) (74,501) by Anonymous from Thank you Martyn, that's really sad about your ex, I can relate to listening to Mariah and crying over an ex. One day if you haven't already, you will meet a guy and make new positive meomories to Mariah's catalogue as you've probably guessed, I can be well cheesy at times. (Friday 14 April 2017; 15:38)

Re: You know you're a Mariah fan when... (74,492) (74,500) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter That sounds great. And congratulations. Hope you had/have a beautiful wedding. (Friday 14 April 2017; 14:36)

Re: You know you're a Mariah fan when... (74,497) (74,499) by Bill from the UK Lol (all caps). Sorry but that made me laugh so much haha. (Friday 14 April 2017; 14:13)

Re: You know you're a Mariah fan when... (74,492) (74,498) by Bill from the UK Haha that is great Jade. Hope you have a lovely wedding day and that Mariah makes the playlist then too. (Friday 14 April 2017; 14:12)

Re: You know you're a Mariah fan when... (74,492) (74,497) by Martyn from England, UK That sounds amazing. Hope you've got a Mariah song as your first dance? Mine was going to be Till The End Of Time, but then me and my boyfriend split up so now I just eat ice cream and listen to it and cry. (Friday 14 April 2017; 13:58)

Re: You know you're a Mariah fan when... (74,495) (74,496) by Anonymous from Thanks Licia. Love your name. (Friday 14 April 2017; 13:53)

Re: You know you're a Mariah fan when... (74,492) (74,495) by Licia from USA That sounds awesome. So glad you enjoyed yourself. That's a great thing your friends did for you. (Friday 14 April 2017; 13:46)

Re: TLC's back (74,493) (74,494) by Billy from England, UK I like it, some of the sounds sound like Imperfect. I love that song so wish it would have been a single. (Friday 14 April 2017; 13:10)

TLC's back (74,493) by this_is_qhm from the Philippines TLC just premiered the first taste off their final studio album, you know, the one backed by a Kickstarter campaign. It sounds really good. Sleek 90s G-funk R&B jam for sure. If Mariah was going for nostalgia, it shouldn't just sound like a poor recreation of her previous hits, it should be as good as Way Back. Hear it while the link's still up. Welcome back, TLC, well done. (Friday 14 April 2017; 12:08)
