Re: JD (57,101) (57,107) by Licia from USA I love them together as well. I'll never get tired of them working together. IMO JD is the one person who I really believe cares for her and respects her. That's why I don't get mad when he says things that many may feel is negative. I don't believe he says anything to hurt her. He knows there's so much more she can do musically and that she can do much better than she has been. I can agree that maybe he should tell her and not the media, but again I don't think he has any ill will. He gives her props when no one else will. (Monday 5 October 2015; 1:52)

Talking about Get Your Number (57,106) by Lee TS from USA I'm still baffled as to why LA Reid only released that in Europe and not here in the States. I was feeling nostalgic and literally watched the video 3 times in a row the other day just being giddy over her fabulous diva-ness of it all. It was and still is such a bop and fun song along the lines of Fantasy, Honey, and Heartbreaker. Like did they not want her to get another #1 or thinking Mariah ruling the charts would be a bad thing? It's still cute yet funny how Mariah stunts on the song. How over the top was she feeling herself on a gargantuan phone, like come on. (Monday 5 October 2015; 1:19)

Re: JD (57,101) (57,105) by Lee TS from USA I love JD because he does have a special bond with MC. The only misstep was him trying to step up as her manager which was a big no no. But I am never oppose to them being together in the studio until the sun comes up. I always love hearing him or Walter talking about working with MC because it gives us more insight to her musician. Well JD, I guess you got your wish when your songs became the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th (Get Your Number), and 5th singles off TEOM, you greedy little thing lol. That's why I feel MC will always be grateful and loyal to JD for her resurrection. Also props to Stella, you keep working MC and get that 10% girl. (Monday 5 October 2015; 0:54)

Re: First time JD worked with Mariah (57,097) (57,104) by Bill from the UK He did indeed remix Never Forget You, but I don't think they worked together on it. Mariah didn't re-sing any vocals. ABMB was their first collaboration together. (Sunday 4 October 2015; 22:20)

A Daydream of Emotions? (57,023) (57,069) (57,103) by Andrew from UK Marcel. So great to see people coming back, new people messaging. However: Emotions is okay at best. *gasp* Yet there is no denying the vocals are impressive. It got me thinking, though, what would Daydream have sounded like with the Emotions/Music Box voice? Sure, somewhere early '95 the voice changed: the voice gave away chest power in return for more elasticity, but that voice absolutely made the album. The voice of Emotions would have killed Daydream as another saccharine offer, I think. I don't think Mariah's albums should face gradation based upon voice, per se (but absolutely if the vocals are not honest). Daydream was raw and fresh and exciting, as was the voice, falsetto and all, decorating it. Big love to Canada. God save the queen. God save *every* queen. (Sunday 4 October 2015; 22:13)

Re: Happy Mean Girls (57,094) (57,102) by Giovanni from USA "You can go and shave your back now." Lol. That made me almost spit out my juice. I died. (Sunday 4 October 2015; 18:24)

JD (57,101) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter JD is so sweet in the interview. He is pretty straight up about how awesome Mariah is and that she should get most of the credit for ABMB. Also he mentions how working with Mariah had elevated him to the #1 producer for the label and cemented his status as the hot shot. It's sweet that he talks so highly about Mariah and also how he felt like he needed to improve himself because his song was not chosen as the 1st or 2nd single. Jermash and Mariah. (Sunday 4 October 2015; 18:17)

Re: Daydream (57,093) (57,099) by B from USA I don't think you're a lamb unless you've sang Fantasy on a roller coaster, lol. (Sunday 4 October 2015; 17:31)

The Elusive Chanteuse Show ticket sales (57,098) by Malcolm from Asia Is there anyone who knows the final ticket sales of "The Elusive Chanteuse Show"? I'm just got cunfused because "@CareyAdventures" on twitter is claiming that MC's 2014 tour sold more than any other tour in 2014. Thank you. (Sunday 4 October 2015; 16:31)

First time JD worked with Mariah (57,097) by Tony Sciacchitano from Australia It says Mariah first worked with Mariah on "Always be my baby". Didn't JD do the remix for "Never forget you?". (Sunday 4 October 2015; 13:44)

Article: In honor of Daydream's 10th anniversary (57,096) by Rommel from Philippines There are some inaccuracies here even the subject title. It's 20th anniversary of Daydream and not 10th. it's her 4th studio album and not 3rd. Lastly, "Melt away" is not the first song she collaborated with Babyface. "Never forget you" has Babyface credit on it. (Sunday 4 October 2015; 5:26)

The time of your life (57,095) by Cgee54 from Usa Every time I hear the song "The time of your life" she did for the Pepsi commercial I always think how would this song be like if it was a complete track. I think Mariah should try to do this type of pop records in her next album, it is fresh and modern in my opinion. (Sunday 4 October 2015; 3:50)

Re: Happy Mean Girls (57,092) (57,094) by Marcus from Brazil Lamb A: Do you want to keep reading mean and bullying messages from Baby? Lamb B: No, of course not. Lamb A: Good. It's settled. You can go shave your back now. Bye Baby. (Sunday 4 October 2015; 2:19)

Daydream (57,093) by Manny from U.S. The memory I have of "Daydream" was going on rollercoasters and singing "Fantasy". It was usually my cousin, sister or someone who was not into her. They just thought I was a crazy teenager. Later, when I met other lambs, I felt normal doing that with them. I met them after high school though. (Sunday 4 October 2015; 0:00)

Happy Mean Girls (57,092) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End Yay. I thought I should at least acknowledge this holiday since I'm the resident Regina George. On October 3rd we play Daydream. What a time to be online, ey? Really, I try to celebrate and honour the Mean Girl spirit everyday. Thank you to all those who make it less of a daunting task, I appreciate it. See you at the next "Book Burning", yeah? (Saturday 3 October 2015; 22:40)

Re: New pic (57,028) (57,091) by Nick from USA I did not like the dress when she wore it on the David Letterman show during the MIAMTEC era and I do not like it now. Her makeup and hair look cute though. (Saturday 3 October 2015; 21:06)

The queen of the remix (57,090) by Jeff from USA I was feeling festive today, so I decided to break out some of my favorite remixes and I realized that, in many cases, the remixes are as good as the regular versions. That takes talent. Since it was a beautiful 60 degrees this morning in Austin, TX, here are my top 6. What are yours? 6. Breakdown (The Mo Thugs Remix) 5. Always Be My Baby” (Mr. Dupri Mix) 4. My All/Stay Awhile (So So Def Mix) 3. Heartbreaker/If You Should Ever Be Lonely 2. I Still Believe/Pure Imagination 1. Fantasy (Bad Boy) featuring O.D.B And since we are treating it like a holiday, here is my honorable mention: Fly Away (Butterfly Reprise). (Saturday 3 October 2015; 20:19)

Re: New pic (57,086) (57,089) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Yes to the shaking off the black clothes. Mariah is one of those rare people who can pull of a wide range of colors. She looks much younger when she is wearing bright colored clothes. Plus I need her to wear something emerald green already and by emerald green I mean this. I think she will look stunning in this color. (Saturday 3 October 2015; 18:02)

"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)

Daydream (57,087) by Giovanni from USA I'm loving all the "Daydream" stories. So cool to know how Mariah's music has helped or made people's lives so much more better. The album is a masterpiece. I've always believed that Mariah is the best female music artist of all time. I'd so love another epic album right this second. *plays "Me I am Mariah* (Saturday 3 October 2015; 17:44)

Re: New pic (57,082) (57,086) by Giovanni from USA I've been saying for awhile now that Mariah needs drastic help with her fashion. It's terrible. And I'm not feeling the new make up at all because it makes her look older. The jackets and enormous high heel shoes have to go. She can be so extra at times lol. She needs to start wearing more colored clothing rather than the same tired old black. It's very boring and depressing. (Saturday 3 October 2015; 17:31)

Re: New pic (57,082) (57,085) by Will from England I think the last time she drastically cut/changed her hair was during the Glitter era. (Saturday 3 October 2015; 11:28)

Daydream (57,084) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End Was the first album I ever bought with my own money. I had a paper route in 7th grade. I was a newly baptised Lamb from watching the Fantasy - Madison Square Garden show(shout out to Always Be My Baby) on Swedish television and I might have cut gym or math class to go to the mall and buy the CD. I carried that gold textured disc around with me everywhere I went and played it every single day without fail. Everybody in school knew me as the #1 Mariah fangirl. It felt like Mariah had written that whole album just for me. Especially I Am Free. At one point I played and sang that song sometimes to the detriment of all the other gems on the album. It was like I Am Free feat. Daydream. But really I love all the songs. There isn't a weak link or throwaway lyric. As much as I appreciate Music Box for its thorough introduction of Mariah in my life Daydream was when Mariah became more than just another great singer or songwriter to me personally. She became an icon and a steady friend I could turn to whenever I needed an escape. No other artist was as consistently filling me up with positive energy and reimbursing my faith in God as much as Mariah apart from MJ. Today, Long Ago and Melt Away are probably the two songs I might randomly crave the most but that always changes. Even One Sweet Day, Forever, When I Saw You, the Open Arms cover and the genius Daydream Interlude still evoke in me memories of trying to do homework in my room but failing miserably because I had the album playing on full blast. I've always perused album liner notes since I was little and I remember being very impressed that Mariah wrote Underneath The Stars entirely by herself. And also produced Melt Away on her own. It seems that that vein of her artistry has not been encouraged or capitalised on very much since. But, I digress. The last track, Looking In, was probably the song that made me start to wonder about Mariah as a person because it was such a contrast to her image. That dichotomy fascinated me, knowing that someone as beautiful, talented and famous could still relate to teenage me. That revelation saved my life. For that I will always be an L4L.

Re: Reading too much into something (57,061) (57,083) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Mara, don't worry, K Buckle and Mariah are still besties. We were just joking. (Saturday 3 October 2015; 8:46)

Re: New pic (57,066) (57,082) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter About the hair, I also have been saying that a shorter, edgier hair with a darker color would have been a fresh change, but after reading the interview of Mariah about the MAC lipstick campaign, I understood why she hardly cuts it drastically. I don't remember the exact quote but she said something like she hopes Monroe doesn't cut her hair because her hair is like Mariah's and that Mariah has a tough time growing her hair because it's so curly. So maybe she is scared that if she cuts it and it doesn't suit her, she'll have a tough time growing it back. About the makeup, I personally think the makeup shows she is more confident now. We hardly ever see Mariah in heavy makeup and a dark lip. She went for the edgy (by Mariah standards). I saw some photos where it looked like the contour and blush products were not blended properly but then again it just maybe showed up like that because of harsh flash photography. I love the darker lip gloss she wore. She is dipping her toes into the "Fall Trend" of wearing dark vampy colors and since obviously Mariah is not going to wear a dark plum, this was her way of switching it up. I love it.
