About IheartMC from USA: I have been a member of the exclusive lambily since the amazing music box era which as far as i can remember being touched by any album or any other artist and mind you Whitney was huge at this point but something about Mariah you are able to connect with. The genuine lyrics, melodies, harmonies and vocals in general. Always honest and i am a huge fan and creator of music.

Re: Worst Mariah song - in your mind (84,147) (84,168) by IheartMC from USA I agree with B on MIAM being a great album. That is an underrated gem. Such classics like Beautiful, Make It Look Good, YDKWTD, Meteorite, Dedicated, Faded and Art of Letting Go to name a few. She really put her all into this album. Definitely top 5 worthy. (Sunday 30 September 2018; 21:28)

Re: Listening party (84,056) (84,149) by IheartMC from USA I completely agree with you on getting an album lyrically like CB, but vocally that album was not up to her standards. I will say, I love acoustic sounding music with her voice. The climaxes on many of those songs are iconic and to this day some of her best. That album gets better with time and was a pretty mature album lyrically when you hear it again in your 30's. Some of my faves are My Saving Grace, Through The Rain, I Only Wanted, Clown, Yours, BOTHB, Lullaby and Subtle Invitation. (Sunday 30 September 2018; 06:16)

Re: Worst Mariah song - in your mind (84,123) (84,148) by IheartMC from USA Damn she doesn't have many bad songs, but I think many of you lambs (lamb since 92 here) can agree with the list below. Please add some of your choices. 1. Don't Stop (Feat. Mystikal) Love her solo part at the end but still doesn't save this wreck for me. Love her though. 2. Did I Do That (uch filler material for M's standards) 3. Tonight (Feat. Nelly) seriously M. Another filler 4. Irresistible (I still don't understand how this even made the album) 5. Triumphant 6. Boy I Need You (Don't who approved this as a single, but they should have been fired. Wrong single choice specifically because the vocals sound like it's a demo.) 7. Loverboy (Some of you may disagree but this song is not that good, the video in my opinion made it worst.) For it to had been the lead single sans Tommy, was laughable and he clearly won that battle. Despite him stealing the Loveryboy sample, she had songs such as Lead The Way, Never too far and Reflections that she could have lead with. Still blows my mind. She should have still released If We to had been combative. The song had a better hook than loverboy. Honorable mentions: Get your number, Why You Mad, Infinity, GTFO (this song tarnishes her legacy especially right before AIWFC), Money. (Sunday 30 September 2018; 06:03)

Re: On Butterfly's 20th (77,938) (77,978) by IheartMC from USA Love your write up on the magnum opus that is "Butterfly". She was in her element and it was new and fresh for her on top of it all. She looked and sounded amazing during this era. You could really feel her during certain songs like My all, OUtside, Butterfly etc. That entire album is just a masterpiece. The cover art, colors theme. The cards were aligned for her. This album could come out today and still work on the charts. Songs like My all, Honey, The Roof, Breakdown still sound fresh. I hope one day she makes another album of this caliber of music and feeling. (Saturday 19 August 2017; 16:46)

Mariah was a hit tonight in Jersey (77,973) by IheartMC from USA I was in attendance of the Mariah/Lionel concert tonight but I was mainly there for M. She was certainly on time and in good voice tonight. She also sounds better live than on the videos. My only problem with the show is that she should change that setlist up a bit. She has such a large catalog and so many top 20 hits to her belt not to mention #1s. I am just tired of hearing the same ole. Below is a list of songs I would love for her to do. Keep it going guys. Beautiful Art of letting go My saving grace Right to dream Crybaby Through the rain Can't take that away The roof Without you For the record Thanks for nothing Betcha gon Know I don't YOu don't know what to do Migrate Side effects Loving you long time Mine again Stay the night My all stay awhile remix Love takes time medley of remixes would be so dope (Saturday 19 August 2017; 06:04)

I know my list is serious but Mariah has those hits. She is really the queen of music. What other artist can you make seperate playlists of songs that weren't #1's but could have been major hits? Love M. (Sunday 21 August 2016; 16:40)

Underrated album - Emotions/Charmbracelet (63,709) by IheartMC from USA Hi guys, I am a fellow lamb since the Emotions era. I have to say I think Emotions was originally an underrated album which includes the title track and so many other gems such as: - So Blessed - Can't Let Go - If It's over - You're so cold - The Wind - Til the end of time - And you don't remember - Make It Happen As you can tell I thoroughly enjoy this album and think Mariah really created such a great timeless piece of work. In regards to Charmbracelet, hailed as her "comeback album" was another album of hers that was overlooked. The album isn't as strong as previous albums, however it is a cohesive mature piece of work which has a balance of signature and new wave Mariah sounds. I wasn't initially the biggest fan of this album, but overtime I have learned appreciate and closely listen to each track furthermore making it a new favorite. Songs that I love from the album are below. I love how the album is a vibe. - I only wanted - Through the rain - Subtle Invitation - My Saving grace - Lullaby - Yours - Bringin on the Heartbreak - Clown - The One - You got me (wish there were no rappers) What are your thoughts/faves? (Wednesday 22 June 2016; 19:42)

Christmas song idea (58,828) by IheartMC from USA Hey guys Happy New year. Just spreading some music love with of my fave Christmas songs Blue Christmas by Elvis. Check out this dope cover of this new singer. Enjoy and here's an awesome year. (Saturday 2 January 2016; 3:17)

Thought I'd share a cute gem of a tribute to M (58,448) by IheartMC from USA I am loving how this guy seems to be a lamb and covers Mariah in such a good way and unexpected way for a male. I am digging this and thought I'd share any kind of love for Mariah in a positive way. Happy Holidays fellow lambs. Long live AIWFCIY. (Tuesday 15 December 2015; 7:26)

Amazing We Belong Together cover (57,911) by IheartMC from USA So I am one of those lambs that still adores this song. I came across a male version of it and it sounds pretty good. I love that he tried a difficult Mariah song. Check this awesome cover of Mariah's big hit We Belong Together. Hope you guys enjoy as much as I do. (Sunday 22 November 2015; 0:36)

Re: My wishlist for additional singles from each album (57,280) (57,286) by IheartMC from USA This is an awesome poll to have kick started as we as lambs have all different opinions of what singles should have been released. Lucky enough for us we stan for an artist who choosing a single is a problem because most of her songs are winners. Here is my list, hope everyone continues to share. Long live our beloved M. 1. Mariah Carey: Sent from up above (could even work today) 2. Emotions: You're so cold (would have been another hit) 3. Music Box: Now that I know (missed classic) 4. Daydream: When I saw you (ultimate wedding song) 5. Butterfly: The roof (deserved a bigger push) 6. Rainbow: After tonight (still love this song) 7. Charmbracelet: Subtle invitation (classy and jazzy) 8. TEOM: Circles/Stay the night (loved both strongly) 10. EMC2: For the record (shame for not releasing this) 11. MOIA: Betcha gon know (still waiting on a video lol) 12. Me I am Mariah: Faded/Meteorite (Both would have brought her back) (Wednesday 14 October 2015; 20:26)

"Help me make it through the night" (57,088) by IheartMC from USA I mean can we all talk about the magic that is this raw genuine cover Mariah graced us with. I am in love with how raw she sounds on this record. She needs to try and reinvent herself by doing more songs or even shows like this. It would show her in a more humanized way in my opinion. I love her and everytime I seek guidance or need hope/faith I tend to lean on her music. This seems to be one of the songs that I just love from her as well as My Saving Grace, Outside, Through The Rain, Can't Take That Away, Make It Happen, Right To Dream, My All etc. I really hope she attempts to do more songs like this, it would only help in maintaining that incomparable legacy. Long live our beloved M. (Saturday 3 October 2015; 18:00)

Re: Daydream (57,036) (57,064) by IheartMC from USA Wow, I literally can't believe it's been 20 years since this masterpiece was released. It's one of her best album and in my opinion does not sound dated at all. She really does craft timeless music. My faves from that album have to be, Underneath The Stars, When I Saw You, I Am Free, Fantasy remix and Always Be My Baby. Those are just my faves but I love every song on that album. Looking in is epic and hauntingly beautiful. Our girl was really going through it and this song represents her emotion at that point in time. You gotta love our beloved M.

Infinity - re-edit (52,615) by IheartMC from USA Hey guys. I am noticing many lambs here discussing a re-edit of the song, how can I listen or find this track? I would love to hear the second verse coming first. Please don't make me act "Thirsty" for it lol. Please send it to imtheish4@gmail.com. (Thursday 30 April 2015; 15:33)

Poor Mariah, to infinity and beyond (52,488) by IheartMC from USA Firstly, I want to say I am a super lamb. Love me some MC through the good and bad. Now I don't love Infinity quite yet but I do like the song. It's one of those songs that will grow on you which I actually prefer. I understand she is giving something more current and it's a blend of old school and new school Mariah. I was somehow hoping for a killer dance track with sick vocals but somehow I don't think she is done yet. I am sure she has some remixes under her sleeve to please everyone. How much you want to bet song once promoted will become a hit. It may not be a number 1 song but it will be a moderate hit because there is simply no one else who has this sound on the radio right now. Kudos to her for achieving that at least. I love that she does not try to follow trends. She simply does what she loves. You have to factor now Mariah has nothing to prove anymore. She already collected records and broke several others. She is a legend and that cannot be taken away from her. Just simply enjoy this new chapter and era in her life. I for one am just appreciating that our favorite diva is still releasing new music when she could have simply retired after the way the media has been treating her as of late. Love you Mariah and long live the new era. (Tuesday 28 April 2015; 19:53)

Me I am Mariah... The Elusive Chanteuse best of (51,285) by IheartMC from USA Hey so guys. So I have a question for the lambs who will appreciate this kind of interactive way of things. I have been listening to Mariah's albums from TEOM to MIAM. Please list what album you think of the 4 (TEOM, EMC2, MOAIA and MIAM) and what singles are your fave and what songs should have been singles. I am curious to know what you think. OK go. My fave album of the 4 is damn it's hard because I think both TEOM and MIAM are pretty tied in my opinion for being solid efforts. If I had to pick one of the two it would be TEOM due to Circles alone. Songs that should have been singles: 1. Mine again - Grammy nomination is enough said. 2. Stay the night - The production and vocals are great. 3. Joyride - The final notes are amazing and a great melody. 4. So lonely - The hook stays in my head after listening. 5. For The record - I mean classic. 6. Faded - So on trend but sounds classic. 7. Meteorite - I can't believe this wasn't a single. 8. You don't know what to do - Another missed moment. 9. Betcha gon know - Meant to have a video. 10. Make it look good - Classic sound. 11. Circles - The vocals, lyrics are everything. 12. Thanx for Nothin - So relatable. 13. Side effects - Edgy sounding, could have worked. 14. Inseperable - So nostalgic and catchy. (Wednesday 1 April 2015; 17:00)

Happy birthday Mariah, the ultimate queen of music (51,194) by IheartMC from USA I want to wish the one and only Mariah Carey an amazing "anniversary" and I believe 2015 is going to be your year.

Sent From Up Above 9. Faded 10. Thirsty (cheeky but could have been a good single) 11. My All (such a classic) 12. Art Of Letting Go 13. Meteorite 14. After Tonight 15. Subtle Invitation 16.

Mariah - remixes (51,117) by IheartMC from USA Hey guys, so today I woke up, craving to hear Mariah's infamous remixes. I don't mean the actual album, I mean just a sorted amount of her remixes which are so legendary at this point. Damn, I love this woman. I am hoping she rebounds well and rises like the phoenix we know her to be. Below are my list of remixes I can't stop listening to today. Please offer your own list if you have any current Mariah playlists spinning. 1. My All Stay Awhile 2. Through The Rain (HQ2 Mix) 3. Triumphant (Vintage Mix) 4. Anytime You Need A Friend (C&C Club Mix) 5. Heartbreaker/If You Should Ever Be Lonely (Junior Vasquez Mix) 6. We Belong Together (DJ Clue Mix) 7. Thank God I Found You - Make It Last 8. Hate U (Jump Smokers Mix) 9. I Still Believe (Pure Imagination) 10. So Lonely (Featuring Twista) 11. The One (So So Def Mix) 12. Always Be my baby (So So def mix) I must admit Mariah and Jermaine do cook up some heat. (Wednesday 25 March 2015; 15:04)

All I ever wanted - Music Box track (51,102) by IheartMC from USA Anyone else love this song? The vocals, and it's just a beautiful ballad. That climax big note is everything. (Tuesday 24 March 2015; 21:25)

MC songs on your current playlist (51,101) by IheartMC from USA Although our girl M does not have any new music currently out, I always seem to have Mariah songs in all of my playlists. Lately the songs that I am currently spinning from her extensive catalog are: 1. Hate U 2. My all/Stay awhile 3. Make it look good 4. Faded 5. Vision of love (Unplugged version) 6. Now that I know 7. For the record Lambs, what MC songs are you currently enamored with? You know her music does not go out of of "style". (Tuesday 24 March 2015; 21:17)

If it's over (46,418) by IheartMC from USA Hey fellows lambs, I am one of the biggest Mariah followers and devoted fans and been feeling very Mariah nostalgic lately and If It's Over comes to mind in recent times. Any other fans fans going through the same thing? This song is often overlooked and it is in one word brilliant. Vocally and lyrically this is Mariah at her best churning it out. Anyone else feeling the same way about this song or any others? You know our girl has so many gems. (Wednesday 27 August 2014; 5:00)

If Mariah returns to form now with this change (45,951) by IheartMC from USA I think in order for Mariah to truly return to form she needs to start picking the correct singles that will attract the general public not just a certain demographic. The singles that should be released ASAP are YDWTD and Make It Look Good. They are classic songs with contemporary feel and attraction. I am a long standing Mariah fan since the Emotions era and I have supported and followed her career. Heck, I have been largely inspired by everything Mariah. If she were to release both singles I can bet she would thrive. I do believe people naturally root for her but she is her own setback with her recent image, elusive behavior and lipping. Believe me this is not a bash to my girl M, it's just what a real fan says. I am very realistic and want her to succeed. Here's hoping these two singles get to see the light of day. (Friday 8 August 2014; 22:31)

Top 10 MC remixes (45,760) by IheartMC from USA No one does remixes like our girl, so here are my 10 fave Mariah remixes: 1. My all stay awhile (This remix is timeless.) 2. Thank God I found you/Make it last (One of my faves and I love how she blended both tracks making it one of her best remixes/covers ever.) 3. Heartbreaker/if you should ever be lonely (If you should ever be lonely alone makes this remix worthy.) 4. Anytime you need a friend C&C remix (The original was epic but this remix took it up another notch.) 5. I still believe Morales mix/Pure imagination (I love both versions so much better and she recorded some new vocals.) 6. We belong together DJ Clue mix (Classic remix, she is made for these types of records.) 7. Fantasy feat ODB/Morales Mix (Both are amazing in my book, she is truly the queen of the remix.) 8. The one So So Def mix (Underlooked gem, the hook alone is worthy.) 9. Dreamlover Def Morales mix (Such a great dancing track and completely different from the original.) 10. Always be my baby So So Def Mix (I find myself listening to this often now.) Honorable mention: Fly Away (Butterfly Reprise) (Def 'B' Fly Mix), Triumphant Vintage remix, Honey Classic mix/So So Def, Through The Rain HQ2, Someday New Jack Swing, There's Got To Be A Way 7 swing, Emotions 12 Club mix (infectious). (Sunday 3 August 2014; 5:55)

Top 10 MC Sad Love songs (R&B/Mid-Tempos) (45,758) by IheartMC from USA I am in a Mariah state of mind so why not promote some more of her amazing and often overlooked material. The following songs are some of my fave sad love songs whether in mid-tempo or ballad form. 1. Roof (One of my all time fave Mariah joints, I love the dark and moody vibe and the storytelling.) 2. Breakdown (Gem of a song right here.) 3. Crybaby (I love how she experimented on this record to great results.) 4. Always be my baby (Classic Mariah and began a trend of hit songs from her and JD.) 5. We belong together (Classic and a champion song.) 6. You're Mine (Eternal) (I had to select this song as Mariah actually named me on her FB a runner up for my duet with her during a contest with Fusic.com.) 7. For The Record (I mean what fan doesn't love this song.) 8. Faded (I can't get enough of this amazing new track.) 9. H.A.T.E.U. (Such a great hook and relatable lyrics, try getting this hook out of your head.) 10. Don't forget about us (Classic heartbreak record about our first love.) 11. Can't let go (So hard not to include this in any of her lists as this is one of her best songs from her catalogue.) Honorable mention: So Lonely (Part II), Thanx 4 Nothin, Mine Again, Don't Forget About Us, Circles, Inseparable, Angels Cry (she has way too many amazing songs to narrow down). (Sunday 3 August 2014; 5:29)
