Are we allowed to post snippets? (55,230) by Leigh from USA I have a bunch of video snips from 7/8 that I would love to share to help those who still question Mariah's voice to get over any of those questions. I don't Instagram, Facebook, or tweet, so I thought sharing them here may be fun. (Monday 13 July 2015; 0:05)

So touching that I cried (55,229) by Deedre aka MiTodoChop @HBF from Canada Just thought I'd share. At the end of the day as much as we all like to discuss musical politics, live performances, charts, career strategy ect, Mariah's music touches people, and is part of moments like this one.

Non-likes (55,228) by Marissa from USA Infinity, Do You Know Where You're Going To, You're Mine, TAOLG. There is no Mariah song I've ever heard that I feel is completely atrocious, but the songs that I listed are songs that I feel are underwhelming. (Sunday 12 July 2015; 21:50)

Songs I don't like (55,227) by NHYTG from nyc I totally agree on "Boy (I need you)", don't like it either. Other non-favourites are "Up out my face", "I'm that chick", "Touch my body", "Against all odds" with Westlife, "Get your number" and "Loverboy the remix" version. . (Sunday 12 July 2015; 21:35)

MC song everyone loves but I don't (55,225) by enwar00 from usa Heartbreaker. Fitting topic as this song just got some shout outs. For me, it's #18 of her 18 #1s. I feel like it's held together by a thin string. (Sunday 12 July 2015; 18:46)

Non likes (55,224) by Warrior Butterfly from USA "Up out my face" is my top skip MC rapping the last verse uhu. No It's Like That just something about does not gel with me. The same with Loverboy. Touch My Body I like better live because sometimes she'll grown the line "I will hunt you down" gives it more authority that this will happen. You got me no chipmunks ruined it. (Sunday 12 July 2015; 18:35)

Non likes (55,223) by director75 from USA Fun thread. My vote goes to Migrate and It's Like That. And to the person that picked I Dont Wanna Cry and We Belong Together as non-likes: Are you kidding? IDWC is sublime and WBT is near perfect. (Sunday 12 July 2015; 18:31)

Bill (55,222) by Luke from United Kingdom Is it weird I actually like that song? Haha. I think it's because I remember hearing it when I was younger so it's kinda nostalgic for me. (Sunday 12 July 2015; 18:18)

Re: iTunes chart (55,221) by Travon..SweetSweetFantasy from USA Mariah Carey is ranked #95 on worldwide iTunes. I have always wished Mariah can perform or reach the masses during her many peaks on iTunes. That would cause a boost that we have not seen in some time. It amazes me how consistent her iTunes performance shows throughout the year. Great job my fellow lambs. We are lambily. (Sunday 12 July 2015; 17:52)

Silence the haters (55,215) by Kyle from USA I just saw Miss Carey last night in Vegas. She was 100% on top of her game. Voice great shape, looked great, confident, crowd was wild. See her before you speak. (Sunday 12 July 2015; 17:20)

Songs that I think are overrated (55,214) by Jake from New Zealand I'd say Cry, If It's Over (even though I actually do like it), and Don't Forget About Us. (Sunday 12 July 2015; 17:16)

Least fav (55,213) by Chicago Lamb from USA Has to be Boy (I Need You). And it was a single too. Ugh. (Sunday 12 July 2015; 16:44)

Non-likes (55,211) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter I'll probably get thrown out of this board because I will name 3 songs that every lamb has in their favorites list. VOL, "Underneath the Stars" and "Fourth of July". Another would be "I don't want to cry". (Sunday 12 July 2015; 16:38)

Bill (55,210) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter That's probably because no one "worships" Boy (I Need You) ahah. I will never get why that song was chosen as a single over "The One". (Sunday 12 July 2015; 16:36)

I Don't Wanna Cry (55,209) by ADAM from USA It's really great to read each fans reactions to fan-favorites and obscures songs alike. I Don't Wanna Cry is one of my favorites songs of all-time. I love the lyrics and production as well as how she belts her vibrato and goes in and out of using her lower and upper register to convey the emotion of the song. Surprisingly, she outdid herself during the live performances in her shows in Osaka and Rotterdam during the Daydream tour 5 years later. This was IMO one of the rare few instances of a live performance eclipsing the recorded song that I prefer. Her voice during that era was really bright and smooth and felt she had even more range than 1990. And the icing on the cake was how she added a closing long vibrato note with the background singers singing I Don't Wanna Cry over and over. Very haunting and very beautiful. (Sunday 12 July 2015; 16:35)

Songs I would never like to hear again (55,208) by ADAM from USA Kate I really like this question you've posted to the forum. I really would love it if I never heard Hero performed again. It's funny because I enjoy the album version with her voice really bright and smooth and the piano backdrop however IMO it's a song that as time goes on and her voice gains more texture to it really grates on my nerves and doesn't sound heavenly like the album. It sounds labored and shrill-like. As far as the album cuts I do not like Just To Hold You Once Again, Silent Night, Never Too Far, Did I Do That?, Ex-Girlfriend, I Only Wanted, Migrate, Memoirs Cd (except HATEU, IWKWLI, Languishing, More Than Just Friends). And from the latest album, Faded, Make It Look, and Heavenly I always skip. (Sunday 12 July 2015; 16:22)

Non-likes (55,207) by Bill from the UK Flabbergasted that nobody has mentioned the monstrosity that is "Boy (I Need You)". (Sunday 12 July 2015; 15:05)

My non-likes (55,206) by Pablo from Spain Emotions, The Wind, Hero, Fourth of July, Bliss, Your Girl, Last Kiss, everything on Memoirs except Betcha Goin Know, Up Out My Face, H.A.T.E.U, Obsessed and Languishing (I love these five songs, the rest of the album puts me to sleep), Make It Look Good are my choices for ones most fans love but I don't really care for. I do like Always Be My Baby, but I think it's overrated as almost every time I say Mariah is my fave singer, I hear "Well I like 'Always Be My Baby'." (Sunday 12 July 2015; 14:25)

Kate / Ty (55,204) by Licia from USA Hero is the song I hate as well. I cringe every time she performs that one. If she never performs that song again I'd be ok with it. Lol. Even though I'm not a fan of Hero I definitely understand why most people love it. Another one that I can live without is I Don't Wanna Cry. The video plus the song equals blah. Lol. Ty if she ever decides to perform Faded I would die of utter happiness. That is my favorite song from MIAM. Another one for me is The Roof. I've listened to that song once since it came out in 1997. I never understood why so many fans loved it. I wasn't so impressed by it. (Sunday 12 July 2015; 14:20)

Kate from UK (55,203) by Jenny from South Africa Hi Kate. I have 2 songs that I definitely don't hate, I actually like them and enjoy them but I was never as in love with them as the rest of the lambily seems to be and I never quite got the hype. The 2 songs are We Belong Together and Migrate. It's always been a surprise to me that We Belong Together spent 14 weeks at number 1. No one was more thrilled about it than me but I felt she had much better songs throughout her career that were more worthy of all the fuss and success lol. I just didn't quite get it. I don't like the second verse lyrics. (Sunday 12 July 2015; 13:42)

Song I hate (55,202) by Luke from United Kingdom That's a good topic Kate. Mine is definitely One Sweet Day. I can't stand that song, although I like the messege behind it I just find it really grates on me. I've tried listening to it a couple of times but it never grows on me which is a shame because the messege is beautiful. (Sunday 12 July 2015; 12:47)

MC song everyone loves but I hate (55,201) by Kate from UK Does anyone have that song that everyone seems to worship but you just don't get it? Mine is Hero. I know a lot of Mariah's earlier songs are quite schmaltzy but Hero is just too much for me. I would love to hear everyone else's. (Sunday 12 July 2015; 12:17)

Animated movies (55,200) by Lee TS from USA I think it would be awesome if Mariah can be part of a huge animated movie and voice a character. She revealed she can do voices in several octaves so it would be cool if she can do some character acting in that arena. Ok so I've seen Inside Out like 3 times already and it truly brought out my inner 12 year old, it's so smart and entertaining. I never thought I would fall in love with a cartoon character but Sadness stole my heart. But yeah, imagine how much fun it would be for Mariah to live out her eternal 12 year old dreams and the excitement for Dembabies. (Sunday 12 July 2015; 10:32)

Faded (55,199) by Ty from USA I really hope she sings this song live one day. (Sunday 12 July 2015; 0:31)

The Wind (55,198) by Bill from the UK I've never heard that it was a planned single. I did read that the fourth single from Emotions was due to be And You Don't Remember, but the idea was shelved after I'll Be There and the Unplugged concert took off. But what do I know? Let's get back to talking about Ariana. (Saturday 11 July 2015; 23:25)
