Philippines (111,943) by Lambi from USA It's true. Philippines have such a mind-boggling singing culture. It's truly no surprise they flock when the greatest singer of all time is in town. I've heard a few of their local singers, and they're actually pretty good. I wish MCPhilippines got Mariah to sit down and be serenaded. They hold parties and events all the time. They got this girl to sing Lead The Way and she really studied the song. I felt she actually did it justice. Mariah would've been proud and be inspired and feel fulfilled, realizing she really did teach the next generations how to sing. Someone from this board that's in that fan club should present this idea next time she visits. We are sick of the generic Hero WBT tributes. We want the deep cuts like that girl did.

Philippines (111,938) by Giovanni from USA Mariah is a superstar and well loved and respected in the Philippines, they absolutely adore her over there. I saw some clips and she looked amazing and sounded good, she was really trying especially with "Emotions" and I give her credit. I would never ever waste time singing that song at my shows because it's that hard. Her show was sold out so I wanna give a big thanks to the Philippines for their love and support to our Mariah Carey. (Friday 17 October 2025; 06:28)

Wait, seriously? Nothing for Daydream30? (111,942) by MusicfanJ from Germany I read it in an interview a few weeks ago. I have to search the article and will share it, if I find it. Besides Music Box it's her best selling album, isn't it? So I'm not surprised, because she loved the immense success. (Friday 17 October 2025; 11:23) this is a reply to message 111,920

Wait, seriously? Nothing for Daydream30? (111,920) by Alexis Carrington-Colby from United States When did Mariah say Daydream was her best work? I'd love to check that out for myself. (Thursday 16 October 2025; 17:45)

Here for it All (111,941) by Bobby A from United States Nothing is possible. Her second come back is coming. I say this because so many things will happen like her autobiographical project and recognition finally by the Grammies. I just feel it in my soul. (Friday 17 October 2025; 11:20) this is a reply to message 111,929

Here for it All (111,929) by Giovanni from USA Your post has me excited but even if it's true what difference would it make? Mariah could release the best song or best album she's ever made however the team she has and a majority her fans gone and not being a streaming artist how is she gonna top the charts? I will still support her regardless and still want her to make music but I feel her number one days are over. Mariah can still make what she wants but she should turn to gospel and sing for God. It would benefit her so much and keep her relevant. Hopefully "Jesus I do" makes it to number one and gets a Grammy nomination. I hope Gamma can make it happen. (Thursday 16 October 2025; 21:41)

Retrospective moments (111,940) by Lambi from USA Also would like to give a shoutout to Daniel Moore for making me eat my words. I may have insinuated that he isn't a strong songwriter. Man, was I wrong. Here For It All and Nothing Is Impossible are hands down the best songs on the album. Seems like their level of collaboration has finally hit a stride. I love how it's evolved organically, something you can not fake. Their songs are starting to be major standouts. (Friday 17 October 2025; 11:10) this is a reply to message 111,820

Retrospective moments (111,820) by Lambi from USA Morgan Wallen only did SNL, one festival, a couple of radio interviews, and a few YouTube acoustic sessions. He still pulled 493,000 units in his debut week. The timing of his tour helped, but the rollout was minimal. But do you know how much more Mariah did? • BET, iHeartRadio, the VMAs. • Ridiculous amount of podcast and radio interviews. • A jam-packed week of TV appearances close to release date. • In-store events, magazine covers. • Huge international festivals. • An Apple Music special. • A high-budget video for T:D. • Stripped versions of the album's songs. • Collaboration with other artists. • Three singles released. This is why we can confidently say her numbers are indeed pathetic. I don't fault Bobby A. for assuming something is suspicious. It's actually pretty valid. People keep saying, "Oh, she doesn't have to chart. Let's just enjoy it." But that's not what she said. Mariah made it clear, this was her goal. To finish strong. Had she not prefaced it like that, maybe the numbers wouldn't sting so much. She obviously didn't join a 400 million dollar company for a $39k debut. For the first time in a while, she was genuinely fired up about her career. She was locked in on pursuing a tangible goal. Part of me believes there's some truth in Bobby A's claim (deep in my dive right now), but another part of me believes the public has actually just checked out on her. The big promotional opportunities actually just backfired. People saw the VMAs. They saw how stiff, uninterested and lazy she was. Why in the world would anyone spend money on that? The free market will blatantly always tell you. The caricature of Mariah, the "lip-syncing phony" seems to have won. On one hand, I feel bad, but on another hand, I hope this truly wakes her up. She can post these fleeting weekly Billboard numbers to soften the blow, but we know she's embarrassed. And to be fair, who wouldn't be? Nonetheless, I am grateful Mariah truly doesn't let go. "They chase me down but I'm still rolling, something in me cannot be stolen, I will not break, I won't be broken, it's deep, can't you see?" I believe these are the words that echo in her mind as she journeyed this album. No groundbreaking single, but very solid songs. Nothing Is Impossible and Here For It All are on repeat. A good body of work indeed. And I believe she will get that 20th number one. This flop will just make her go harder. She's fully lost her ability to perform on stage, but the creativity is still as strong as ever. And it's really her creativity that always lands her at #1. (Sunday 12 October 2025; 14:09)

Mariah's Insta Story (111,933) by Todd from Melbourne, Australia Mariah just posted an image of the bridge in Brisbane defrosting.

Is HFIA her ILTY? (111,934) by Lambi from USA The elites are smart with every artist. If they were going to get her, it would be through paying off doctors because she is depended on meds. And true, it did feel like HFIA era had a "eulogizing" theme. It feels like they just said, "Alright let's just give her all her flowers, all the awards she wants and then let's put her away." I have no basis for any of this, but it's just something I subconsciously thought of. Also after all they've done to Mariah, I think we all have the rights to be cynical. Part of me believes the reason why she pushes AIWFCIY so hard every year, is to remind them she's still delivering her pound of flesh for the company. That she is worth more alive than dead. She's really not out there fighting Sony in the court system and buying out other catalogues like Michael did, so I hope they just let homegirl live and enjoy her festive life. She's really been through enough. (Friday 17 October 2025; 02:18) this is a reply to message 111,894

In Your Feelings (111,932) by Bobby A from United States I am obsessed with In Your Feelings now. It is still going strong on the Urban AC Mediabase chart at #38. I didn't like the la da da da bridge part three weeks ago, but today I think it adds so beautifully MC's signature touch of humming the melody. I can't help but wonder what IYF would sound like during the Emotions era. Anyway, if Gamma is smart, they will release IYF mid-January with a Motown homage video with the Johnta Austin, Bryan-Michael Cox, Anderson .Paak and JD performing with MC as the Four Tops. A Jimmy Kimmel performance would be nice too three weeks later. (Friday 17 October 2025; 00:17)

Someones ugly daughter (111,930) by TJ from Norway I would buy it for sure. And play it more than one time. I even think she could record it with her current voice, if she stayed away from the whispering. Maybe this guy from Mariah Daily reads our messages? Let's hope so.

Someones ugly daughter (111,914) by MusicfanJ from Germany This album with Mariah's voice would be the "cherry on the cake". It would sound so good. She needs to release it, no matter how. I just checked the songs a week ago on YouTube and also thought it needs to be heard with her voice. (Thursday 16 October 2025; 10:20)

Here for it All (111,910) by Bobby A from United States After listening to HFIA today, I couldn't help but compare it to what Charmbracelet was for MC. Charmbracelet came after a traumatic period in MC's life and the passing of her father, Alfred Roy Carey. Charmbracelet was the precursor album to one of the biggest comeback albums of all time. HFIA is MC's Charmbracelet in 2025. TEOM II is coming in 2027. I just know it will happen. (Thursday 16 October 2025; 06:56)

Here For It All (111,919) by Edward from USA If I'm not mistaken, they were called Mariah's 3: MCArchives, MariahDaily, and MariahHero. Eric probably remembers that better. [Webmaster: The third one was MariahConnection.] MariahHero was the first to go, the webmaster got upset because Mariah toured but skipped his country. Back then, that site was a goldmine for MP3s and media. Years later, MariahDaily shut down too. Their news section was amazing great, but their message board never took off because you couldn't speak freely or say anything remotely critical about Mariah, so it turned into a total snooze fest. Then we had this site, which had the best discography archive, singles, international releases, everything. Eric eventually stopped updating once Mariah stop releasing physical singles. I don't remember all the details, but I recall Eric used to release a magazine-style collection of Mariah photos until he got hit with a cease and desist, and that was that. MCArchives outlived them all because this board has always kept it real. Sure, we're a little dysfunctional at times, but there's always been a balance. Plenty of people have tried to turn this place into another "MariahDaily" echo chamber, but thankfully, they never succeeded. If it were for the "yass queens" or the oversensitive ones, we wouldn't be here. What's kept this board great is that we've always been able to have different opinions. Back when fans first started noticing Mariah's voice changing, and many were deep in denial, there were basically two groups here: the UK Gang and the US Gang. Moderation was minimal, so blood was constantly spilled on the board. Some fans were so blinded by devotion that even when Mariah's boobs finally came out of the closet became they were impossible to hide, they still swore they were so big due to her wearing push-up bras. Eventually most of those fans came to their senses when those push up bras didn't seem to work for their own bosoms. Those were the days. (Thursday 16 October 2025; 17:33)

Muni Long and Mariah "Made for me" (111,927) by Giovanni from USA How the hell am I just now hearing this song? I'm on Spotify streaming "Jesus I do" and this song follows up after a Lady Gaga song.

Barrio Boyzz (111,926) by Giovanni from USA I wonder if the Barrio Boyzz had become more popular in the English market and been managed better would Mariah had worked with them. To me they deserved better and were the latino version of Boyz II Men. They have an album they recorded in '95 called How We Roll and it's one of my favorite r&b albums and in my opinion deserved a Grammy nomination. I could always hear them singing on "One sweet day" or "Thank God I found you". I wish they got their big break every artist or group gets to take off and be successful. I know Mariah would have liked their voices and r&b flavor. In another world they did and Mariah still has her Butterfly voice. (Thursday 16 October 2025; 21:26)

Confetti & Champagne (111,925) by Giovanni from USA I really like this song even though I don't drink champagne I just wish it wasn't so short. It sounds more like a prelude than a song. The music and production sounds like something from 2009,in fact it sounds like something that would have fit perfectly on Lady Gaga's The Fame or The Fame Monster album.

Here For It All (111,923) by jaker20 from US I too have started collecting Mariah physicals again. I stopped CDs after MOAIA, but over time felt that streaming really don't have a connection with the artist. Then started collecting vinyls. I got HFIA on CD and vinyl, but stream them when I'm out. I think Mariah's albums have actual value because they don't make millions of them anymore. I believe this happened in some stores with HFIA, because they released only as much as Caution because, I suspect, pre-orders were low. There's many reports that they can't find stocks, and ended up ordering on Amazon. That's another generational gap, fans of legacy acts don't pre-order, they buy them when they're at the stores or at the merch shop at their tour venues.
