Re: Me I Am Mariah (65,284) (65,287) by Edward from USA Unless Tony Bennett was rapping on "Honey" and I hadn't noticed, their duet is called "When Do The Bells Ring For Me, Ring For Me". (Monday 15 August 2016; 13:40)

Re: Faded (65,277) (65,286) by darrian liu from taiwan Oh yes. Faded was the first song that sticks in my head from MIAM. It's a beautiful song, I love the pretty layers and the vocals there are so nuanced. But the moment that first whistle note came out, it was a vocal explosion. Amazing. (Monday 15 August 2016; 13:14)

Re: Me I Am Mariah (65,284) (65,285) by Giovanni from USA I meant for her album. (Monday 15 August 2016; 13:01)

Re: Me I Am Mariah (65,267) (65,284) by Sheila from United States Mariah already did a song with Tony Bennett: Honey. (Monday 15 August 2016; 11:53)

Re: Faded is her hit (65,283) by Sheila from United States Mariah gives [...] no love. Faded is her most radio friendly song since [...]. Faded and [..] are the most heartfelt songs on the cd. Faded is almost her screaming to Nick, you're always somewhere but not there for me, me, me (Nick was everywhere doing little of nothing). Adore adore adore Faded. (Monday 15 August 2016; 11:52)

Re: Faded (65,277) (65,282) by Giovanni from USA Nope, hate it sorry. I enjoy "Make it look good", "Dedicated" and "The art of letting go" much more. (Monday 15 August 2016; 10:05)

Re: Faded (65,277) (65,280) (65,281) by Haiji Toro from USA Licia, I have to agree with you. Camouflage and Cry were both good songs but absolutely boring to me. Every time I hear them, I'd rather listen to Vanishing. I feel that if it has been done once, and done amazingly as Vanishing, then don't try to recreate it. The same goes to Stay In Love (WBT #2). I cannot express how much I love Faded though. My favorite song on that whole album. And I also have to agree with RibbonB, Ribbon was my favorite off of that album. I do enjoy the remix as well, I'm just mad they took out certain ad-libs that made the song what it was. (Monday 15 August 2016; 4:13)

Re: Faded (65,277) (65,280) by Licia from USA I love Faded. Faded to me is the realist song on MIAM. I also would have preferred Faded as a single rather than You're Mine. For some reason I was drawn to Faded more than Camouflage and Cry. Neither of those songs did anything for me. Faded, One More Try, Supernatural, Beautiful and Heavenly are about the only songs I still listen to on MIAM. (Monday 15 August 2016; 2:06)

Re: Moving on to a lighter subject (65,278) (65,279) by RibbonB from USA She does. They are both so adorable. Absolutely precious babies. I do want to see some of their moments from MW. It's all about them for me and that show, although I hope their time is kept to a minimum. (Monday 15 August 2016; 1:53)

Re: Moving on to a lighter subject (65,274) (65,278) by Licia from USA I feel the same way. I hope they can cut that boobie stuff off before he goes to school talking about boobies. It's funny until he says it at the wrong time in the wrong place. Yes Roc is adorable. Roe kills me with her sweet little smoker's voice. She sounds like she smokes a pack a day. Lol. (Monday 15 August 2016; 1:42)

Faded (65,277) by RibbonB from USA I absolutely love this song from MIAM. This should have been the lead in instead of You're Mine Eternal. This song has so many layers and the vocals are killer, especially the last 30 seconds. Mariah outdid herself on this one. It rivals Ribbon from Memoirs, in intensity and emotion, but they are two extremes from the same coin IMO. Where Ribbon is ecstatic, Faded is exhausted, Like a Faded Ribbon, awwwww. To these type of writing and vocals I say, yasss queen all day. Now Giovanni I hope you love Faded too so we can reaffirm our friendship. Lol. (Monday 15 August 2016; 1:36)

Re: This is what you came for (65,271) (65,276) by Musti from UK It is catchy indeed and I was sure it would be #1. But I think her team diluted the song's potential by having too many Rihanna singles out there at the same time. When Work was #1, this song was already out along with Needed Me and Kiss It Better. And now there's also the song from Drake's album. Too much? Still, it's a hot song and things might change. Hopefully not. (Monday 15 August 2016; 1:29)

Re: This is what you came for (65,243) (65,275) by darrian liu from taiwan I'd say the next no. 1 would be Justin's Cold Water. It's no. 3 on iTunes, and just two weeks in, it's already at no. 13 on Radio Songs. We all know how Beliebers support Justin and once the song reaches the top 10 of Radio Songs, it will shoot up to no. 1. (Monday 15 August 2016; 0:41)

Re: Moving on to a lighter subject (65,266) (65,274) by RibbonB from USA Yeah I saw that last week and they are so adorable. They might want to break them of the boobie chatter. It was cute, but inappropriate. Roc is adorable though. (Monday 15 August 2016; 0:15)

Re: Me I Am Mariah (65,256) (65,273) by Giovanni from USA You're always negative so it's no surprise you'd have nothing but negative things to say about one particular song from Mariah. (Monday 15 August 2016; 0:12)

Re: Me I Am Mariah (65,267) (65,272) by RibbonB from USA Lol welp, we will never agree on AOLG but I accept and appreciate your opinions. AOLG and Angel's Cry are on the same level of shouting out emotions vs. a more nuanced telling of pain and hurt. But I guess she feels that way sometimes. I be like, skip, zip to the next song. I guess it is that way for all of us, but the songs vary person to person. Mine Again is my jam though, doesn't even compare to AOLG and Joy Ride is sublime. I could go on and on dragging your song just for fun but I will stop. Just having fun with you, but I mean it though. Lol. (Monday 15 August 2016; 0:12)

Re: This is what you came for (65,261) (65,271) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter I was hoping Justin Bieber would step in again and help Mariah haha. He has 2 new songs out so I was hoping one of them would just go to #1. Or at least for Sia to stay there long enough for Rihanna to drop. What's scary is though this song by Rihanna and Calvin is actually quite catchy and may be on the charts for a while. (Sunday 14 August 2016; 23:50)

Re: Money (65,260) (65,270) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter It is also one of my favorites from the album. (Sunday 14 August 2016; 23:48)

Re: Mariah's funny side / Josephine (65,257) (65,269) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter She is, she met up with her during her Sweden stop and then Josefin went along with Mariah for a few stops after that during the SSFT. (Sunday 14 August 2016; 23:47)

B from USA (65,268) by Giovanni from USA I find it funny how you changed your feelings for "The art of letting go" when before you also stated that it was one of Mariah's personal songs lol. Never before did you ever speak of it in a negative way. Now it's "wordy" and disjointed"? What happened B? (Sunday 14 August 2016; 22:32)

Re: Me I Am Mariah (65,238) (65,267) by Giovanni from USA Not every one of Mariah's songs has a melody now do they? "Mine again" is one of my all time favorite songs and it does not have a melody. "The art of letting go" is one of Mariah's most personal songs. And when was the last time we heard her belt that fierce? "Joyride"? "Angels cry" was probably the closest but not as strong as "The art of letting go". "Supernatural" is too cutesy and "Money" is just a mess. I fall asleep during "Money" and "One more try". "Heavenly" saves the album in my opinion. Hopefully Mariah's next album is better with better collaborations. Say Miguel, John Legend, Sam Smith, R. Kelly, The weekend or an older legendary artist like Stevie Wonder or Tony Bennett. I would love a jazz number with him. That would be classic Mariah. (Sunday 14 August 2016; 22:28)

Moving on to a lighter subject (65,266) by Licia from USA That snapchat Nick posted of the kids was too cute. It kind of tugged at my heart strings when Nick asked Roc what the password was and he said "I love daddy and mama." Then he had to ruin it with the "boobies". I have a feeling Nick won't find the boobie thing funny when Roe gets hers. He may just cry. Lol. (Sunday 14 August 2016; 22:19)

Mariah dream (65,265) by Giovanni from USA I just thought I would share the dream I had about Mariah last night. I have never had a dream about her or any other singer or celebrity, but last night I did. Mariah was in my room beside my bed singing "Luluby" [sic] from the Charmbracelet album lol. Out of all the songs she sang "Luluby". She looked very pretty and was smiling the whole time. She had on a black blouse and a pair of jeans and her hair was tied to the side. The funniest part was after she was finished my friend appeared and she left with him and closed my door lol. This was too funny but in a way a dream come to true. I met Mariah but in a dream. This one was extra special too because usually in my dreams I don't hear anything. So now I have to go and play "Luluby". (Sunday 14 August 2016; 22:13)

Re: This is what you came for (65,243) (65,264) by George Golden from UK Well the powers that be want Rihanna to surpass Mariah badly. Anything she releases goes to number one or top three. I don't think it will hit number one, but don't rule out another number one from Anti. (Sunday 14 August 2016; 21:41)

Re: Probably the best documentary on MC (65,247) (65,263) by Musti from UK It's funny that you posted this. I was watching it too last week and I could swear I didn't remember some of the parts even though I'd watched it a few times before. The part about the alleged boob job is interesting. It made me think that perhaps TM was not so against Mariah going for a sexier image, if he really did buy her the boob job. He couldn't have been that oblivious to what was going on in the industry at the time with singers increasingly dropping more and more clothes. Sexy was becoming the new norm and Mariah had to keep up. I think his main issue was the hip hop direction. He just did not want her to hang with rappers. (Sunday 14 August 2016; 19:26)
