Tommy book (108,669) by TJ from Norway I hope that you will bring some updates along the way. I am sure a lot of the readers on this board will call it pure fiction, but please bring the juice. (Sunday 4 May 2025; 10:05) this is a reply to message 108,667

Tommy book (108,667) by Jamie from UK I've just started reading Tommy Mottola's book from the point he met Mariah. Still got some to go but I was loving the part where he went down to the woodshop after Mariah said come down and meet Ben Marguiles. He says when he got there he was faced with Mariah singing. He said she was good on the demo but to hear her sing there in the woodshop studio was incredible and her voice was so powerful. It gave me goose bumps imagine witnessing that. He said it was then that he noticed her flirting with him and he had to speak to his therapist about her as he felt he was falling in love with her. I can't wait to read some more tonight.

Vacation (108,668) by Bobby A from United States Thank you, Zachariah. Have fun in Bali. I hear it is gorgueous there. I love Tenneseee in the summertime. There's nothing like sweet tea with a deli sandwich lunch or pasta entree at dinner. At restaurants, the waitresses call you honey and sugarplum. That just makes me feel right home when I visit Nashville. (Sunday 4 May 2025; 00:36) this is a reply to message 108,665

Vacation (108,665) by Zachariah from Croatia Sounds like a great trip. I am visiting Bali this year, all alone. Finally. I hate traveling with others. (Saturday 3 May 2025; 11:43)

I am bipolar about Walter A (108,666) by Randy from USA So here's my two cents. A lot of you are excited that she could work with him again. Even I raised my eyebrows when I found out he was producing the Streisand song. I swear he's the dude that was among the attendees at that table where Tommy put that knife to her throat and he said nothing. Turned his eyes and went home to sleep. And that's their break. That's my theory. Anyway my favorite album is Butterfly. My favorite songs on the album are Butterfly, My All and Close My Eyes. They are his productions. So yeah they made magic together. But if you get into her catalogue deeply, Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis were his replacements and they did an amazing job with Petals, Against All Odds. Through The Rain is one of my favorites. Let's not talk about Big Jim Wright and Languishing. So did MC really need Walter A for great ballads/introspective songs? Could it be what she's been saying all along, all she needs is a good piano player because she can play but she's terrible? If I hear her say that again, by the way, I'm gonna stab myself in the tongue with a fork. So what do we need Walter A for and what are we excited about again? (Saturday 3 May 2025; 20:34)

Vacation (108,659) by Bobby A from United States Thank you, Shezz. I am headed to Nashville, Tennessee. I haven't been since I moved to Austin, Texas. It looks like I will have to stay an additional 2 years here in Austin to save some moving money. I am so excited to get back to Nashville because they have the best CD/vinyl record shops and restaurants. Do you have any vacations plans? (Friday 2 May 2025; 18:57)

401k (108,664) by Zachariah from Croatia I still don't get what does that have to do with Mariah. (Saturday 3 May 2025; 11:42) this is a reply to message 108,662

401k (108,662) by TJ from Norway 401K I believe is an American thing about retirement and savings. I guess it was a poisoning reply, that shouldn't been on the board. I might be wrong, because I don't know the system there. (Friday 2 May 2025; 20:51)

Daydream (108,663) by Stacey from USA Who really knows? I'm just offering up a theory. Still bugs me that 30 years later MC went home that night empty-handed. Such an amazing album that deserved those awards. (Saturday 3 May 2025; 02:58) this is a reply to message 108,658

Daydream (108,658) by MusicfanJ from Germany It's an interesting thought. Who really knows what was going on behind "closed doors"? I do believe Tommy wasn't so hapyy with Daydream (Fantasy, remix with Da Brat, the house remix "Daydream interlude" on the album and of course "Looking in"). But because of the extreme commercial success around the world (Daydream went to number one in almost every country) plus the records from the US charts, he must be pleased at last. The Grammy would have been the cherry on the cake at that time. (Friday 2 May 2025; 14:46)

MTV90's (108,661) by TJ from Norway Has finally started to air programs worth the time. On Tuesday next week it's MC unplugged, and I hope for some music videos soon. They air 1 hour shows of big names all the time now. (Friday 2 May 2025; 20:33)

Favorite songs (108,660) by Anonymous from USA Honey. Sweetheart. Crybaby. Just to be around you. There's got to be a way. Obsessed? Sprung? Did I do that? Do you think of me? I didn't mean to turn you on. Got a thing 4 you. Shake it off. Migrate. Melt away. Want you. Vanishing. Fly like a bird. Fly away. Forever. I wish you well. I still believe. Someday. One sweet day, Without you, Up out my face, I'll be there through the rain. Lead the way. Make it happen. Yes, and. For the record. You got me. It's a wrap. It's like that. What more can I give? Thanks 4 nothing'. Clown. Bye bye. Honorable mention to GTFO. Just some of my favorite songs. (Friday 2 May 2025; 19:06)

Daydream (108,651) by Stacey from USA I hear what you're saying. I just can't help but think Tommy wanted her to lose more than winning would have benefit him. Daydream definitely has an R&B sound to it, even the ballads. (Friday 2 May 2025; 01:01)

Discussion (108,654) by Edward from USA Why are you being so bitchy? Your comment was so uncalled for. How did you go from 1995 music to 2025 politics? Last time I checked, none of the tracks on Daydream is titled 401K. (Friday 2 May 2025; 04:23) this is a reply to message 108,653

Article: Barbra Streisand duet with Mariah Carey is coming (108,649) by Nicole from US Wow. The album is produced by Walter. I wonder if there was even communication between him and Mariah. But for me this might be something positive to look forward to. (Thursday 1 May 2025; 21:03)

Article: Barbra Streisand duet with Mariah Carey is coming (108,648) by Brandon from USA I’m very curious to hear this collaboration. I hope that MC gives us a clean full voice vocal performance (ala We Belong Together). No pasted together vocals or unnecessary whistles. Just sing MC.

Article: Barbra Streisand duet with Mariah Carey is coming (108,645) by Lainsky from Philippines The first time I read this article, I felt a surge of excitement and wonder. I'm looking forward to new music, even though she's only a guest artist. However, I can't help but wonder why it has to be with AG. Don't get me wrong, I love AG, but they have already collaborated before. I would have preferred a collaboration between BS and MC. It seems to be a strategic decision, in my opinion. They included AG to broaden the song's appeal to her fans and generation. Nevertheless, I'm choosing to focus on my excitement for this collaboration. A new song is on the way.

Article: What else does the Hall of Fame want from Mariah? (108,641) by Stacey from USA I can't help but wonder if Tommy played a role in getting MC shutout at the Grammys. She was pushing further into R&B, something TM despised. Daydream was a commercial success but maybe Tommy orchestrated the shutout at such a high profile event to "shut up" Mariah and push her back to pop/adult contemporary. (Thursday 1 May 2025; 01:16)
