MariahDaily vs MCArchives (51,930) by MIAM from United Kingdom Seems MariahDaily is back and doing what it does best again. Im glad it is, because that was the very first Mariah fan site I found and I find it always gives liable and positive information, that's why I enjoy visiting there. Not to say that MCArchives doesn't do that. MCArchives gives that and all the current news about Mariah that's circulating at present, also fans are able to hear and voice their opinion on whichever subject here. Yeah we may not all agree with each other about everything but that is what is unique about us and MCArchives, we are all from different parts of the world and are different in so many ways yet I still like reading posts whether I agree with them or not. It shows how much MC is loved across the globe. So to anyone reading, thank you for all your inputs and keeping us united as fans and a massive thank you to MCArchives themselves for making this happen. (Thursday 16 April 2015; 20:52)

#1 To Infinity album cover (51,929) by Malcolm from Asia As a lamb i'm disappointed on the album cover of our queen. I thought from now on, she will be more realistic in her cover and embrace her real body but no she chooses the other path, stick to the manipulating and stuff. I think she will be more loved by many of this generation if she will be true to her self and be a genuine person like she used to. She is now covered by her diva attitude etc, but I will give her the benefit of the doubt because I truly love her and adore her as an artist. I am so desperate to see the real kind, having a personality and special Mariah Carey. I want to talk to her now and hug her and ask why she is acting like this, why she did this and not being true to her self. We celebrate her music, I wish we can celebrate her true personality too. That's all. P.S. As a lamb I want the best from her and if I offend some of you because of my opinions, I apologize, I want to be realistic here for our queen's sake. (Thursday 16 April 2015; 19:16)

SIO and DFAU (51,928) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Can someone please give me a list of the hidden messages in these two videos? I have heard many times that these two videos are filled with hidden messages and inside jokes. I think I got some in SIO. But none in DFAU, unless ofcourse the Marilyn scene is what they are talking about. Anyways can anyone give me a full run down of the hidden messages from these two videos?

L.H. (51,927) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter I loved that part in for the record where she mentions her previous songs in such a brilliant way. I always wanted her to do a video where she recreates some of her most iconic looks in it. Obviously she has way too many to fit into one video, but she can pick and choose. The outifts I would love to see a modern take on would be: 1) The flannel shirt and denim shorts 2) The iconic MC little black dress 3) The heartbreaker jeans 4) Any outfit from Honey 5) The halter neck long gown scene from WBT 6) The Loverboy hot pink jumpsuit 7) The gold ensemble from Breakdown Yes all of these can't fit into one, but hey she can pick and choose.

Infinity (51,926) by Lara from Middle East Imagine if the lyrics of "Infinity" included the titles of all her previous #1? Kinda similar to " For The Record". Is that the funny part they're talking about? (Thursday 16 April 2015; 16:40)

Infinity in twitter (51,925) by TheOne from Philippines There is this tweet from @EBUNC1 which he claims that he also listened to Infinity. He described it as a "classic new song". He didn't give too much info after that. The thing that really bothers me is that MC retweeted this. It seems like she's agreeing or whatever. Ugh. I don't know how this guys did listen to the new track before us lambs. It makes me feel more excited about the new track. April 27th gets more farther than it usually do. (Thursday 16 April 2015; 16:07)

Tevin / OSD (51,924) by TheOne from Philippines You're definitely right Tevin. OSD is really meant for him this day. I really like Paul Walker. But I'm not that fan of the track of SYA. But hey, it helped to dethrone Uptown Funk from #1, so I want to thank it for that. Btw, RIP Paul Walker. (Thursday 16 April 2015; 15:48)

Infinity (51,923) by B from USA Is it the 27th, yet? Seriously, I can't wait to hear this song. (Thursday 16 April 2015; 15:20)

Uptown Funk and Paul Walker (51,922) by Tevin from USA I think we all need to dedicate OSD to Paul Walker today for saving it from being dethroned. Rip PW. (Thursday 16 April 2015; 14:45)

Re: Webmaster (51,921) by Otti from Belgium Yes it is. Thank you. Nice remix. (Thursday 16 April 2015; 13:45)

Music video (51,920) by Lee TS from USA Yeah I also thought M and Brett had already shot it, but I'm thinking maybe they were in the process of preproduction and coming up with ideas/story lines. You know M, always saying only a portion of her concepts ends up being the final thing. The way Showbiz described it I keep getting It's A Wrap tease, the theme of it being funny - her cracking a bottle on his forehead for forgetting the donuts. And I'm glad you're back puppyface, I took a listen to Carly's song and enjoyed it. (Thursday 16 April 2015; 13:37)

Infinity the next #1 (51,919) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter I swear if I was Mariah I would be going into hiding about now. I don't know how she does it. The song hasn't even been released, heck we don't even have a snippet and the internet is abuzz with talks about this being her next #1. Don't get me wrong, I am not judging, in fact I, myself seem to get the feeling that it might be a #1 or at least crack top 10 because Sony and MC seems determined. But yes, back to Mariah. I would get cold feet if I was her and the internet was so alight with high expectations from a song I didn't even release a snippet of yet, no matter how confident I was about the song. I mean I could have had We Belong Together in my hands and still tremble at the thought of disappointing people. I know she is confident about the new song, but to see the internet calling it her next #1 without knowing anything about the song is nerve wrecking because the expectations are so high (and Lord knows what we are expecting), she might get nervous about the reaction when she actually releases it. I'm sure it'll be a great song though. But just saying, if I was Mariah I would be hiding somewhere and be like "No shut it down, we ain't releasing nothing." But then again, maybe that is why I am me and she is the queen. (Thursday 16 April 2015; 13:21)

Orkun (51,918) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Thank you so much. I do write a lot of mindless things, haha. This site is like a journal for me where I put in an entries about Mariah related stuff that comes to my mind. I am glad to hear you like it. And I adore your posts. What's your thought about the new era? As for Uptown Funk, Bruno always tends to give me a MJ, James Brown vibe in his songs, that's probably because he is influenced by them strongly. I heard he used to impersonate MJ back in the day, so maybe he ends up copying him a lot as a result in his own work. What I love about Uptown Funk is that it makes you want to get up and bust a move especially at the clapping parts and the music that comes right after "don't believe me just watch". It's a fun song, I never did think it will stay on top for so long though. Keep posting. Sending some love and hugs. (Thursday 16 April 2015; 13:14)

Re: Help (51,917) by Webmaster Eric from the Netherlands I think you mean the Always Club Mix of Always Be My Baby. This remix can be found on the CD-Single from the UK. The cover of that CD-Single is my avater. (Thursday 16 April 2015; 13:03)

Help (51,916) by Otti from Belgium The other day I was on Mariah's twitter page, and there was a video clip posted (I guess by a fan), and there was playing an uptempo song, I never heard before. Is that a snip of "Infinity"? It sounds really good. It has drums all over the song. I'm dying to know the name of the song? Can someone help me? (Thursday 16 April 2015; 12:44)

Off my chest, Uptown Funk / Mimi L. / Andrew / Abraham (51,915) by Orkun from The Netherlands So I heard Uptown Funk for the first time today. Great song but I could hear the plagirism. It sounds a lot like a few other songs ( Michael Jackson's Jam being one of them). And I was disappointed. Yes, Mariah created countless WBT replicas over and over but at least, she was copying herself. Abraham's post on Infinity being Mariah's 19th number 1, and the 40 thumbs up he got is awesome. That's how badly we want her to have succes and how we all are on the same page on this topic. Lets make it happen. Mimi L, I love love love your posts. Stop reading my mind. Andrew, I'm openly supportive of your opinions and read them with full interest. Exiting times. Lets get that #1. (Thursday 16 April 2015; 12:43)

Music video (51,914) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter The article says that she'll film the video this weekend. Wasn't the video supposedly already shot? Didn't MC yell over the radio when Brett called in, to say the video will blow our minds? I don't get it. A last minute video is scary to me. I don't want a rushed edit job. (Thursday 16 April 2015; 12:22)

Mariah back to the charts (51,913) by John Paul Palisoc from Philippines So "Infinity" was already reviewed and got a positive one. I hope that it will also do good on the charts for as we can see that the majority of music listeners nowadays has a different genre rather than the genre in the early 2000s. But I still hope that it will catch and hit everybody's style of listening and will contain an LSS that will last a decade. (Thursday 16 April 2015; 12:13)

Infinity (51,912) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter So after going through the net for hours, and reading "reviews" from people who claim to have heard the song, I am more confused. At one point they say it's a funny, upbeat, feel good song with her singing fast. The other says its a sad yet catchy song. There have been one claim of a Mariah laugh heard in the song and also multiple people have said she holds a long note at the end. So what is it? A "Touch my body" meets "Side effects"? Both have the verses where she speaks fast. "Side effects" have the sad lyrics with the uplifting chorus, "Touch my body" is fun through and through, I love both the songs, but I don't know what they'll sound if they had a baby. Anyways, I'll try not to read too much into these rumors. (Thursday 16 April 2015; 12:05)

"After her crazy last album on DefJam" / Showbiz411 (51,911) by Billy from Greece What exactly was crazy about that album? Go blip yourself mr. Arrogant, unknowledgable reviewer. (Thursday 16 April 2015; 11:42)

Thoughts (51,910) by this_is_qhm from the Philippines I think Mariah releasing an updated collection of her #1 songs may not exactly be the most profitable decision, but considering the current state of her career and image, it's what she needs to reintroduce herself to today's younger audience. It may very well be her most pivotal career move yet, as the fates of her succeeding new material from here on out may depend on whether or not this compilation does its job well of bridging the gap between her biggest commercial flop so far and her next masterpiece. A lot is riding on Infinity. It being the only additional track on the compilation may mean two things: 1) Mariah wants to stay true to the title. Should Infinity underperform, at least that would make it just one dud in a collection of #1s. 2) Her team and new label really believe in the song's potential on the charts. It's probably that good, or at least we hope it is. As a bad side effect, this unintentionally oversells the song, so it better be the s**t to justify the hype. Of course as fans, we will forever want more new material from her, so I understand the disappointment of some on this board. But who knows? Maybe she'll announce a deluxe/special version with extra previously unreleased tracks. For now I just hope Infinity won't leak before its official release. They were able to keep #Beautiful under wraps before it was released, so I hope this follows suit. And this better have a kickass creative video as well, not just a montage of glamour shots.

Infinity review Showbiz411 (51,909) by Shezz from Pk Ok so I don't know what to make of this guy. One day he's bashing her, the next day he's praising infinity. I know Epic is going to promote the hell out of it but I wonder what they can do other than the April 27th Vegas launch as she has to be in Vegas rehearsing hopefully. Also I wonder if it would have been smarter for them to release it to radio earlier as was traditionally done so that the video and sales can boost its position further. The big release day numbers only come from the current popstars. If this song is worth it like we hope it is the general public will warm up to it gradually. Initial sales will be just lambs. (Thursday 16 April 2015; 9:51)

Infinity (51,908) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Carrying out my daily morning investigation of Infinity and savoring every little info (rumor or confirmed) about the song. We now have the name of at least one of the co-writers and a rumored story line for the song. (Thursday 16 April 2015; 6:55)

Infinity (51,907) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Now what is this supposed to mean? I found it on twitter. The song is funny? I am more intrigued now. No I can't wait. *yells* Mariah. Dont play with me girl (like the frustrated lamb video). (Thursday 16 April 2015; 6:34)

Does anybody else want a sonic sequel to Glitter? (51,906) by this_is_qhm from the Philippines As someone who loves 80's music to bits (new wave, new jack swing, time-stamped keyboard, blaring synths and that overall dark, seemingly empty, bottomless sound), I love the Glitter soundtrack. Based on some of those characteristics, my favorite upbeat track on that album has to be Didn't Mean To Turn You On. On the midtempo side, it would be Want You. Of the slow tracks, it's Lead The Way. And as much as I love Mariah's 50's-70's throwback songs (Your Girl, Circles, I'm That Chick, It's A Wrap, and Make It Look Good are my favorite songs off her most recent releases), just the other day, I heard a new song by, of all singers, Carly Rae Jepsen (yes, weird, I know) that has me wishing Mariah does an 80's inspired album again. Carly's All That is giving me some 80's quiet storm realness right now (think of the slow jams from Janet's Control album). Of course that's mostly thanks to the brilliant production by Blood Orange, but I guess that's the point. Maybe Mariah should break away from her comfort zone. Seek out less known up-and-coming producers (the way she does rappers). That will freshen up her sound even more. I personally would want her to release a lush atmospheric album like Jessie Ware's Devotion or Tough Love someday, as I feel her voice would fit such sophisticated sound like a diamond-studded glove, but if that doesn't happen, I'd just wish she would be more open to working with producers no one would ever expect her to work with.
