MIAM / MCArchives vs MariahDaily (51,956) by May from Denmark To me the difference is humongous ha. I tell you from my experience. When I was very young I would check Mariah Journal constantly, it used to be quite good information wise and it was a bit like MCArchives where they would post every cover around in magazines where MC appeared even if it as at her lowest (there was once a cover from a gossip magazine of Mariah entering her car, she had a bikini top and some jeans and she was crying). I even recall the webmaster or someone associated to the site did an interview to someone in MC team, their gallery was pretty extensive and updated constantly. One day everything changed and it was all just and only positive stuff about MC and they would only post her flattering pics. Not long ago (maybe a year or two), MariahDaily opened a community just like this one in their front page and either the WM had too much in hands or was really biased. Anybody with a critic towards MC was banned, I myself got banned for simply saying that I "wasn't team Nick Cannon" when someone brought up the subject. Then lots of random non fans/lambs came and it was havoc. It got close pretty quickly. Now it's only left the main forum but it's like this policy of only positive stuff can be posted or asked. I much rather have this site, sometimes there's fur flying in the air but at the end of the day we are free to express, free to give opinions, to be ourselves and not have to apparent to "fit". The WB here does a great job as well to keep the order. (Friday 17 April 2015; 11:17)

So expectations were right (question) (51,955) by May from Denmark Is she really going to give us those surprises she talked about? "Disc 2" boom. If it's true it would be so amazing. (Friday 17 April 2015; 11:07)

this_is_qhm (51,954) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Oh wow that's a brilliant idea. I never thought of that. In my mind I always had a vision for FTR, where she would recreate some scenes in the part she mentions her previous songs. Like when she says "you'll always be a part of me" she'd do the be doing the scene from the black and white remix version, where she holds her toupee and nods. Then "I didn't give my all to you" will show her in a recreation of the overturned board. Then there will be the halter neck dress scene from WBT and finally when she yells "honey" she'll do the head/hair black flip she does in the video. It's confusing and I can't explain it in writing sorry. But your idea is brilliant. I would love it if she does it. I'm a little worried about the video because I thought she already has it ready.

Ardis (51,953) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter If you are talking about the album, it was not pushed back. The official press release always said it would be May 18th. There was a rumor that the release date is May 6th but Mariah's team never confirmed that. (Friday 17 April 2015; 10:46)

Mimi L. (51,952) by this_is_qhm from the Philippines I love that idea. Though selfishly, I would like it better if she got an element each from every video of each #1 song (may be an outfit, a prop, a backdrop, etc.) and incorporate them in a creative way with a coherent storyline. That'd be genius, fun, and nostalgic all at once. Please, Mariah, don't botch the video. We haven't got a passable one since Obsessed and maybe even the Up Out My Face (Remix). It's pretty worrying, as both of those were both made in the previous decade. (Friday 17 April 2015; 10:17)

Tevin (51,951) by Norman from USA You certainly don't owe me an apology for your statement. I was posing a rhetorical question with an opinion of my own. You weren't the only person sharing a similar view, which is why I didn't address the comment to you personally. It was not a personal attack towards you (nor an attack at all) in any way, shape, or form. I apologize for it coming across that way. Thank you for your message. (Friday 17 April 2015; 9:59)

RE: Pushed back for the 100th time by Ardis from Earth (51,950) by MimiLamb from Germany Where did your read that Infinity is pushed back? The single "Infinity" is still going to be released on the 27th of April, and the album "#1 to Infinity" on the 18th of May, I never knew any other dates. You can find that info on Mariah's official website and even her Twitter background mentions all the dates. (Friday 17 April 2015; 9:59)

Mimi L. / Infinity (51,949) by Orkun from The Netherlands About my thoughts on this era. So many fans with special interest fields. Some are very visually developed. They notice every detail of her dresses for example. I think you are one of them and she "needs" to make a connection with you, dress-wise. Of course I look at them too but I have no fashion skills. Haha. I really don't. I'm the kind of guy who trusts his ears a lot. I need to hear the song to have a better idea of this era. My worries: I think she would have made a better connection with the general public if her cover wasn't photoshopped. It would have made a better connection. Michael Jackson was advised to drop the Michael-isms such as the high "hee hee"s. He didn't. And he suffered from it. It was a bit too much. Mariah has the same issue I believe. There are some Mariah-isms in her vocals which she should use, but not overuse. Look at the word "Infinity". The letter "i". That's a Mariah-ism because it's an "easier to sing high" letter which she will use while she is using her head-voice. To sum up, when I hear the song, you'll be the first to know, along with the Archives familiy. (Friday 17 April 2015; 9:46)

Webmaster (51,948) by Lara from Middle East Where did you get this picture from? It's written on the CD "disc 1". Does that mean we're expecting a double CD? Ah can't wait. (Friday 17 April 2015; 9:14)

Thanks for the sweet comment the other day May (51,947) by Deedre aka MiTodoChop @HBF from Canada It's nice to see you posting your thoughts again lately. Really nice poster, Eric posted. I'm feeling really good about Epic/Sony amd the direction her team appear to be going in. Yay. And Bill, you are a sweetheart. Just saying. (Friday 17 April 2015; 8:53)

Disc 1/2? (51,946) by Andrew from UK The picture shows the CD saying "Disc 1". What's on disc 2? (Friday 17 April 2015; 8:48)

The CD (51,945) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter The disc says "Disc 1". Does that imply there are more discs? (Friday 17 April 2015; 7:33)

#1 to Infinity / something in store (51,944) by cBerr from Canada I think there's something brewing with this release. By that I mean we'll see more thank just one new track. Why is the album only up for pre-order on her website and not yet on iTunes? There's also a picture making the rounds to promote the CD and the disc is clearly labeled "Disc 1". And the last time around Mariah herself stated she couldn't put out the #1's album without including those 4 "bonus" tracks. It would have been "unfair" to the fans. I have no proof to back anything up, but in my gut I just think we're going to get more than just "Infinity". (Friday 17 April 2015; 4:46)

Norman (51,943) by Tevin from USA Sorry if my post offended you, I didn't mean for it to come across like that. I'm a fan of Paul walker and I would rather have OSD get dethroned a thousand times over if it meant a good man like everyone says he was could be brought back. I just figured dedicating this song to him today was fitting, sadly from his untimely and tragic situation he did save that song, and isn't that what the true meaning of OSD is to remember and pay there respects to individuals that we all lost. So sorry if I offended you but that was not my intention. (Friday 17 April 2015; 3:32)

The real nostalgia (51,942) by Jon from Netherlands I'm thinking how I'm gonna look back decades from now at songs like Heartbreaker, ABMB or others that marked an era. I think it's gonna be very painful to look back to those great moments and the energy, the life, the love, the youth that was into all of that. Mariah won't just be a souvenir of the past but life itself. The dreams, heartbreaks, iconic moments all translated into music and a catalogue that comprises almost any situation of life. What will be like if a moment comes when she doesn't put music out anymore? She's been a guide through it all. Most of the time my life and hers (or at least her music) followed paralel paths. If she wasn't in my life there would be something missing and I wouldn't even know what. Sorry for being a downer but I was reading about her number ones and it hit me that those songs belong to a moment in time that won't come back. Just like life. We might hear the songs again and again but Mariah is never going to be the same as she was when she filmed the Heartbreaker video and I'll never be the same as I was when I first saw it. I'm wishing I could go back and just relive it all. Especially the Glitter era. I was so eager to listen to the new music and she didn't disappoint me. She never did. (Friday 17 April 2015; 2:46)

Infinity back cover (51,941) by this_is_qhm from the Philippines Thank you webmaster for posting the ad pic for #1 to Infinity, I saw it here first. Is it weird that I like the back cover more than the front? I mean sure, Mimi looks great on that (though I'd prefer the one from the shoot where she's actually smiling, but I just feel like the back cover is just the best way to showcase the tracklist. (Friday 17 April 2015; 2:39)

Make It Happen (51,940) by Rón from United Kingdom Make It Happen is easily one of my favourite Mariah songs, so for me it's a shame that the song didn't go to #1 because I think it is so good. However I do not think the studio version has aged well in comparison with other songs. If the song had more of the MTV unplugged vibe about it, I think it would have gone to #1. I would still love to hear it in Vegas. (Friday 17 April 2015; 2:19)

Album (51,939) by Luke from United Kingdom Webmaster is that an official CD package? Seeing all of her number 1's stacked like that really puts it into a new perspective. It actually looks quite formidable. (Friday 17 April 2015; 1:51)

Pushed back for the 100th time (51,938) by Ardis Logic from Earth So the release of "Infinity" has been pushed back to May 18th. Why are there always push backs? For as long as I can remember this has happened with albums and new songs being released. It's so annoying. Pick a date and stay with it. If your not ready then don't pick a date. Anyone know why this always happens? (Friday 17 April 2015; 1:48)

(51,937) by Webmaster Eric from the Netherlands (Friday 17 April 2015; 1:40)

Norman (51,936) by B from USA I found those comments to be disrespectful and in bad taste. I think OSD is a fitting tribute to Paul. I've been a fan of Paul Walker since high school. He was a good looking man. (Friday 17 April 2015; 1:35)

Paul Walker (51,935) by Norman from USA How about a simple R.I.P. because the man died? Otherwise it's quite tacky and crass to celebrate it. (Friday 17 April 2015; 0:19)

I'm dying here (51,934) by May from Denmark I am biting my lips so much everytime I read a review or comment on the new single. If I'm feeling so freaking anxious, nervous, excited about this next Monday I can't imagine how Mariah must be feeling. What a way to keep together. Some thanks going to Shelly, you are a sweetheart and I appreciate your kind words. On another note, boy I'm glad you are back commenting this_is_qhm (exclamations), love your posts, I was actually wondering where you have been as this is a crucial Mariah moment. I haven't built up this much adrenaline for new music fom hers since a long while. Not even for the last album, I wonder why. Mega happy new music is on the way plus hearing her singing live pretty soon "I don't wanna cry", I myself know I'm gonna cry. (Thursday 16 April 2015; 22:41)

ET: MC's most awkwardly photoshopped album covers (51,933) by Ardis Logic from Earth I found this online, I thought it was interesting. (Thursday 16 April 2015; 22:08)

Vegas (51,932) by B from USA I'm ordering my tickets for the May 12th concert in Vegas in the morning and I'm so excited. I became a fan in 1995 the year my cousin was born. She became a fan in 2005 and in 2015 we'll be in Vegas seeing Mariah. (Thursday 16 April 2015; 21:39)
