Favorite ballads list while we wait (110,839) by TJ from Norway
I would remove the songs from 10-15th place and add:

Vanishing
Without you
Hero
Till the end of time
Everything fades away

NBA player (110,838) by Lambi from USA
Thank you Baby. I stalked him. He is definitely better looking than Nick. Him and Mariah’s offspring would’ve taken over all of Hollywood. But Nick probably had an edge over him with his sense of humor which ultimately won Mariah. Appreciate the deep dive, lamb. I can now sleep well. LMAO.

I think it just dawned on her that an 11-track album after 7 years won't cut it. It's been too long, 14 tracks would be fine.

Mariah Carey medley live on American Idol 2013 (110,836) by Dove from United States
I just rewatched it and actually it wasn't as bad as I remembered it. Maybe that's not the one I was thinking of. But my point still stands that the number ones deserve a break.

Super Bowl (110,835) by Dove from United States
If it's going to be bad, I don't want it either. But if they're going to put thought and effort into it, it could be huge for her career. Not everyone is invited to play at the Super Bowl.

What comes to mind is the medley she did when she was a judge on American Idol. It wasn't good. But those songs are old and she can't sing them anymore. Maybe if she did some of her newer, up-beat songs it would sound better. She looks really good right now, so that's half the battle for a woman in show business. It's only like 15 minutes. I think they can swing it. It would have to be a group effort though.

I like these songs. (But for Fantasy just the sample of Genius of Love and the background singers can sing the chorus before it jumps to the next song. That one is only added in for the nostalgia.)

Migrate
Obsessed
Stay Long Love You
Money ($*/...)
I'll Be Loving You Long Time
Fantasy
Stay The Night
Make It Look Good
Boy (I Need You)
Dedicated
Type: Dangerous

Maybe they could get the person who did The Beatles LOVE by Cirque du Soleil show and album to do the mix and blending of the songs. (I just looked it up and George Martin passed in 2016, but maybe someone on par with him. )

If the background music and show sounds good, and it's entertaining to watch, she wouldn't need to dance. Not that anyone expects her to.

If it's going to be a lazy effort with the same old slow songs we've already seen a million times, then yeah, Taylor Swift should definitely do it. Taylor Swift is going to end up doing it eventually anyway.

Here For It All (110,833) by Bobby A from United States
I hope so. I need to know who the producers are My Love and I Won't Allow It. I feel people will be talking about those two songs on 09.26.

MC back in the studio (110,832) by Lambi from USA
Or possibly cooking another radio friendly single? Kind of like how she did with DFAU but way earlier. She's probably scrambling and realizing HFIA needs something bigger. Mariah is prolific so I have no doubts she can tap this out quick.

Super Bowl (110,831) by Lambi from USA
Agree. Had this been '96 Tokyo Dome Emotions Mariah, it would've been perfect. She could be a guest star though, like that short number moment with Latto in BET. But Mariah being lazy for a 15 minute set, in front of all of America, on the most watched live TV event, on the biggest gig a star could possibly get, is a no no. However, I don't think there's any leg to this. Even Mariah said herself, "I don't want a stressful moment."

Here For It All (110,830) by Terna from Nigeria
I read somewhere today on twitter where someone was like a record executive he's close with has heard the entire album and described it as a hybrid of "Glitter, Charmbracelet and Caution".

Super Bowl (110,829) by Giovanni from USA
I'm a no on Mariah doing a Super Bowl performance. I just think she's past her prime and I don't know if she could deliver vocally. I think it would be a risk and any mess up would just be more ammo for haters. We're still recovering from that disastrous New Year's Eve performance so the last thing Mariah needs is negative coverage of a bad performance. Let Taylor Swift do it.

MC back in the studio (110,828) by Bobby A from United States
Nostradamus posted today that MC is recording new songs for the HFIA deluxe edition and working on remixing every song with some collaborators who have said yes already and are on board for the remix album. I guess there won't be any Christmas shows because MC will be recording in the studio October-December.

Sugar Sweet (110,827) by Giovanni from USA
I listened to "Sugar Sweet" and I definitely want a solo version. This song is a hit to me.

MC back in the studio (110,826) by Giovanni from USA
I do hope Mariah has a hit on her hands but if she doesn't that's okay. For me she has more than enough but how awesome would it be if she did get herself a 20th number one. I do believe "HFIA" will be a good album regardless. The song titles are very interesting especially "Play this song". I also hear the music in background for "Mi" and it sounds so good.

One long month (110,825) by Bobby A from United States
I noticed that Amazon started giving after album release shipping dates for about two years now to keep shipping arrival complaints to a minimal. The CD's are coming from the U.S. Our postal system is so unpredictable right now since our postal system started a new process of sending mail to regional distribution procesing centers in major cities. It is there packages are sorted and mailed out to its destination. I know this because I spent way too much time holding on the USPS customer service line and this the answer I received about my Ebay package being late. You will probably receive your package on the release date or a day or two after the 26th.

MC back in the studio (110,824) by Bobby A from United States
Shezz, this is great news. Surely, some JD remixes and new songs are on the way. MC's surprise studio picture looks like JD's So So Def studio. I really feel now that no more singles will be released until after the album drops. I am saying this because the way MC revealed the tracklist in such a social media strategy way to build anticipation with the song titles and lyric two liners. I believe Gamma wants multiple songs to "album bomb" on the Hot 100 like Morgan Wallen's I'm the Problem did in May. It will probably happen with Mi, Play This Song, Confetti and Champagne, I Won't Allow It, My Love, Jesus Do It, Here For It All, and In My Feelings. People are talking about these songs the most in social media comments. I believe it will happen for her HFIA. 2010 is when streaming numbers were allowed in the calculation equation for the Hot 100.

Release and promote Sugar Sweet album version (solo) (110,823) by Dove from United States
I'm fine with only male dancers most of be time, but if she did the Super Bowl I'd want ladies too. To fill space.

One long month (110,822) by Jamie from UK
I've noticed my preorder on UK Amazon won't arrive until 6th October. I wonder if all CD's produced are coming from the USA? I've preordered on iTunes too but thought it was a bit odd not getting the physical copy on the day it's released, they normally send them out early to ensure this.

Release and promote Sugar Sweet album version (solo) (110,820) by Rashidi Rahim Rick from Malaysia
From the album tracklist I'm sure the song is Mariah's solo version. So now that we have about less than 1 month from the album release, might be good idea to release the album version with a proper video on the beach with her and her male dancers (shirtless) doing choreographer. We all know Mariah doesn't want anymore female dancers. For that VMA performance, Mariah should be doing medley of Type Dangerous/Sugar Sweet/Here For It All. Imagine the climax ending of the performance where Mariah belt the "here for it all" and the music stop to make it like acapella. We don't need her hits medley because it won't sound good. Refer her medley at Billboard Awards 2019. That medley performance should be deleted. She was shaky and crack and nervous. Come on Mariah and Gamma. Do it right this time. This would be her last album and her next album would definitely be in 2035. Most of all here won't be here for it all anymore.

Bobby A. rumor has it she's adding songs for the deluxe version with some remixes possibly including a Sza collaboration based on the love she's been showing MC on social media with heavy hints.

I wish a Sza collaboration could've made the original album. Better late than never but I just hope it's not dropped if HFIA doesn't perform as well as she wanted it to initially.

MC the GOAT (110,817) by Dove from United States
I don't blame Stella or Nick for dips in her success but they're not my favorite. I feel like MC was heartbroken because of Nick and after watching the E reality show a few times I don't think Stella was a good influence or had the best intentions for her. I don't think they were the best for her personal life.

All I Want for Christmas Is You (110,816) by Dove from United States
It would be funny if it was another song of the decade for her. It's been #1 for the last six years. We just gotta keep the momentum going for four more years. I don't know how that works, though, (song of the decade) but that would be neat if it was her third one.

NBA player (110,815) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End
Rick Fox* who also used to be married to Vanessa Williams (the 1st AA Miss America). There were always dudes shooting their shots at MC. Whether it was Tupac, Matt Dillon or random clowns - like the thirsty one she chose to marry on a whim. I have very little faith Rick would have been a better husband to Mariah than he was to his first wife. But he wouldn't have treated her any worse either.

*I'm so impressed by the fact Webmaster Eric has kept the MCA brand so intact for almost 3 decades that it's nearly impossible not to end up being directed back here whenever I wanna verify or check my Mariahpedia memory.
