Re: Song snippet thoughts (71,729) (71,732) by Butterfly from Her voice is shot. That's what happens when you drink wine like water and smoke weed. And lol at her playing the victim re-James. Honey, you're on Bryan's D while being (fake?) engaged. She exposed herself and she looks like a looney tune wearing the ring. (Saturday 28 January 2017; 22:40)

Re: Song snippet (71,720) (71,731) by RibbonB from USA Lol. Edward I saw you slip in that C. The B is short for Bliss though. Lettuce pray for our queen, that her song is a stone smash hit wonder. She doesn't even use her old catch phrase anymore. (Saturday 28 January 2017; 22:37)

Will the real clown please stand up? (71,730) by Butterfly from Mariah said: "It's not a reality moment," she insisted. "Anybody that's trying to be shady and write that - they just look like a clown. They're going to look like an idiot when they see it." (Saturday 28 January 2017; 22:34)

Song snippet thoughts (71,729) by Marissa from USA From this snippet, it sounds a mess to me but ultimately I won't know for sure until the full song is released. Judging by the fact that she's making a "breakup song" about a relationship and breakup that she never showed any signs of giving two shits about, I already know in my spirit that this is a song that I'll hear once and probably never voluntarily listen to again. It's already not believable. I just wish she would go to Capri, leave the traveling circus behind (including Tanaka) and get inspired to make meaningful music again.

New song (71,728) by Tameka walker from United states Where are you guys hearing the song at? I would love to listen to it myself. (Saturday 28 January 2017; 21:25)

New song snippet (71,727) by Stacey from USA Wow, and I thought Infinity was the worst thing MC's ever written. Yikes. (Saturday 28 January 2017; 21:03)

Re: I don't even get excited anymore (71,717) (71,726) by May from Denmark I think the problem is we tend to get this snippets, we think is going to be amazing (Lousinity reflected that, check the snippets from back then how everyone thought was going to be her next number one), it's again happening. Everyone screaming hit and number 1. Then we are dissapointed, but moreover with the videos. Lousinity had potential with a good video, the snippets of the video looked so fun, and then we get a half ass edited video that seemed to be done the same day, for a moment I thought it was going to be nice like TMB, it was young, and had a lot of attractive factors thanks to its comedy, I believe that the video helped the song, together they went hand in hand really good. This time I have no expectations and I'm only waiting to form a conclusive opinion. The short snippet gives me vibes of no and yes, I don't like too much the first part but I like the second one, which is the one she didn't write. (Saturday 28 January 2017; 21:00)

Snippet (71,725) by Chicago Lamb from USA What I've learned through life is that when expectations are high, expect the opposite and vice versa. Judging from this board, the new single just may surprise. (Saturday 28 January 2017; 20:52)

Re: Triumphanousinitippet (71,715) (71,724) by Edward from USA Are you implying that Jesus, hanging off the cross, would've told his mother to put him out of his misery, had she sung a "soothing" snippet of Mariah's new song to him? First Oprah claiming stigmata when she cut herself by accident with a paperclip, and now this. I can't. (Saturday 28 January 2017; 19:51)

New song (71,723) by lil star from untied states So is it the most innovative song? No. is it horrible ala Infinity? No. It's just a rough snippet so far I'll give it a chance on Sunday. And it's not like there to out of touch per say. Allot of artist are doing throwback numbers to the 90s early 2000s (hell Kehlani's new album that just came out is basically a love letter to the 90s early 2000s ) but I think for us as fans we wanted something different. For us it is the same sounding song rehashed a little bit WBT mixed with YMI and at this point the same lyrics used over and over again. It's a song for the general public and not her fans. I think we want her to get personal again, to us her best moments are when she talks about her personal struggles and we relate vs when she tries to make generic songs and relate to us. Like with "Cry" we could tell that song was personal to her, and some of us could relate to it. (Saturday 28 January 2017; 19:49)

Re: The new song (71,713) (71,722) by Anonymous from I have to agree with you Andrew. It's sad but true. (Saturday 28 January 2017; 19:40)

The song is sh*t (71,721) by Anonymous from It's dry as hell. Mariah is so pants with her music right now. It's a plop as well as a flop. Sorry to be a Debbie Downer but have to use humour to tame my feelings of disappointment and anger. Mariah is so not heartbroken oven James, her immediate relationship with Brian confirms that. Mariah, you suck toes hence why your music is so damn cheesy. (Saturday 28 January 2017; 19:38)

Re: Song snippet (71,716) (71,720) by Edward from USA RibbonC, I definitely agree with you. It's time for Mariah to let other people write some great songs for her. It doesn't have to be a whole album, but at least ten or twelve songs. Mariah could write and produce the other two or three however she wants. (Saturday 28 January 2017; 19:37)

First listen experience (71,719) by Edward from USA I'll wait patiently for the song to emerge as a whole. Snippets can definitely ruin the "first listen" experience. If snippets are to songs what trailers are to movies, I don't understand why snippets don't usually capture the real feel of the music they represent, especially if the main purpose is to draw attention to the song itself. (Saturday 28 January 2017; 19:20)

Re: Triumphanousinitippet (71,715) (71,718) by RibbonB from USA Jesus wept though? That bad? I look forward to hearing the full version Sunday. Still can't watch the show, but I'm sure someone will post the whole song. I will buy it if it is good enough for more than a few listens. What is the tippet title this time I wonder? (Saturday 28 January 2017; 18:28)

Re: I don't even get excited anymore (71,704) (71,717) by Terna from Nigeria Learn to stay away from all those expected "clips" as they ruin your first listen and instead wait until you have purchased it yourself to play, or played it on her official Vevo YouTube account. First impressions matter even when it comes to music. (Saturday 28 January 2017; 18:01)

Re: Song snippet (71,707) (71,716) by RibbonB from USA Well Shezz, I definitely believe Stella is the worst for her career. Just one big misstep. I hope things correct themselves AFAFP. I will wait to hear the whole song. I really do believe Mariah should finally allow others to write some great songs for her. Just take a break to focus on that great instrument and just sing. She can do her vocal arrangements and get co-songwriting credit if she needs to. Lol that is often done. There are so many awesome writers who could really help craft some great more universal songs for her. Stella and Mariah keep trying to market more personal stories, but when her life is a jumbled up ball of confusion that does not translate very well at all. Mariah is living one or three things and then promoting other things in the tabloids and on a reality show and none of it is cohesive. (Saturday 28 January 2017; 17:58)

Triumphanousinitippet (71,715) by Bill from the UK Well that snippet was more of the usual bland and boring trite she's been pedalling for years now. But what was I expecting this break up anthem to be? Another I Don't Wanna Cry? Another Forever? Another Butterfly? Hell, even another The Art of Letting Go? Of course it was going to be the same tired Mariah/JD/rapper du jour formula. Jesus wept. (Saturday 28 January 2017; 17:58)

Re: Here's the clip (71,708) (71,714) by Will from England Wouldn't surprise me if the clip we've all seen is part of the music video, you know? (Saturday 28 January 2017; 17:27)

The new song (71,713) by Andrew from UK It's sh*t. And like everything Mariah does of late, it's a lie. Why does she bother pumping out garbage constantly? She is embarrassing herself, and everybody who follows her along with it. I talked about going to see Celine, in work, yesterday. "I'm 90's," I said. "I love Whitney, Celine and Mariah." On hearing the name Mariah my colleague snapped her head and said, "I can't stand that woman." Not sure that many people can. Her voice sounds awful. Her music is boring repetitive shite. And, as a person, she is a fake plastic mess with no redeeming qualities left. Safe to say even once die-hard fans are now abandoning ship. What a load of old shite. It's not that I don't like Mariah as a person - I'm increasingly finding myself actually thinking she's a complete twat. (Saturday 28 January 2017; 17:21)

Re: Here's the clip (71,708) (71,712) by Licia from USA She could have kept the dramatics with taking that ring off. She should have given that man his ring back long ago. (Saturday 28 January 2017; 17:14)

Re: Song snippet (71,707) (71,711) by Licia from USA Well because I love Donell Jones and that particular song she sampled I'm a tiny bit excited, but I can't really make a fair assessment until I hear the whole song. I don't even want to see the video because seeing her and Banaka Tanaka haming it up for attention will tick me off. I just need the audio. Lol. (Saturday 28 January 2017; 17:11)

Re: The rap game (71,675) (71,710) by May from Denmark I believe you very likely know more on the subject than I do. I don't even enjoy such type of music in the sense that I don't sit and listen to it frequently or know a big amount of rappers. I should perhaps have been more specific, I know some of them are well established in the US but some needed a push beyond. But yeah, some of her choices are debatable, I loved some in E=MC2, but I also think that all the reggae made it so uplifting as well. My whole point in the end was that I don't think Mariah needs to rely on them anymore, it has become predictable, like as if she was hoping that just by keep trying the same formula she will get another Fantasy, maybe in her fantasies. Waka waka, that was bad haha. Thanks for having me patience Licia. (Saturday 28 January 2017; 15:55)

Re: Song snippet (71,707) (71,709) by May from Denmark In all honesty I could care less if the song matches or not her personal life. What matters is the content. So far it's just a snippet and half of the lyrics in it belongs to another song. There's nothing else but to wait. To me this tiny bit sounded like a generic RnB piece. But it could be different as final product. (Saturday 28 January 2017; 15:44)

Re: Here's the clip (71,705) (71,708) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter I didn't particularly enjoy the snippet, but according to some people who heard the final version, there are major differences, so maybe the snippet doesn't actually represent the final product, but just her laying down her vocals in the studio. Here's to hoping the final version will be better. I do not hear the resemblance to "Side Effects" (that song is perfection), but yes I guess we'll have to wait and hear the final version.
