Me (51,687) by peterpaul from Ireland I wish everyone would stop talking about Shelly and to her. I'm the new queen bee in here lmao. (Monday 13 April 2015; 11:19)

New tracks (51,686) by peterpaul from Ireland I can't wait for the album release. I'll be expecting at least 5 new songs, any less I'll be raging lol. (Monday 13 April 2015; 11:15)

iTunes pre order (51,685) by Reuben Walton from United States When is it gonna be out? I heard the preview order was going to be available today (Monday). (Monday 13 April 2015; 10:59)

Mariah looks great (51,684) by May from Denmark Thanks Shelly beforehand and it is so beautiful to have you back in the forum. Also thanks enwar00 for the shut out on the symbol, I actually didn't notice haha, I think it is so cool, a whole new icon of total completion. I took a look at the website before going to bed and there she was, looking amazing. It's an inspiration of the "old Mariah" so I think the picture is right, I didn't feel dissapointed by it. Also she seems more confident, the dark make up, the black dress, everything is imponent about the image. It's true promos seems faster and go by sooner as well now at days, but also got to admit that industries don't really have to pay that much anymore for promos as mostly it is now done by fans and people who enjoy the product. The whole "run the voice" and "create buzz" before it had to be done with endless spins of a single in the radio or an incredible stunt performed out of nowhere, or creating anticipation though tv music channels. Internet has indeed changed a lot. I haven't bought complete albums in forever, I love the digital era and the fact that I can chose what songs I want to consume, as opposed to having to cash on a whole album and only listen to half of it.

Cover #1 to Infinity (51,683) by Gilles from Malta I am not a big fan of the cover, a bit too provocative for me. My favorite cover was E=MC2. However I love the butterfly with the mathematic symbol infinity. Now regarding the album, I will be waiting for 8 hours for having an opinion. Never judge a book by its cover. See you later everyone. I really hope for something new. Crossing my fingers. (Monday 13 April 2015; 9:07)

Shelly (51,682) by Bill from the UK Hehe thanks Shelly, I don't think I've been this excited since there was all the buzz around the release of Touch My Body. I'm excited for what else is announced today. I hope we get the track listing when the album is open for pre-orders. And yes, it took a lot for me to change my avi as I was so attached to it, but Mariah and I are entering this new era together. Out with the old lol. (Monday 13 April 2015; 7:23)

HomeSlice (51,681) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter I am glad some one else notices these apart from me haha. Most people think the same font has been used for her name on the album/single covers all these 25 years (except for the obvious change in E=MC2). But I have always noticed that they changed the font when she went to Island and the change started from Charmbracelet and was there until MIAM. Now she is back to the old font used in her Sony days. The fonts look really similar, but are slightly different. (Monday 13 April 2015; 5:54)

Gloria / Gisselle / RJJ12 (51,680) by Dove from USA Thank you Gloria. Gisselle, I meant to respond to your post to me yesterday but I didn't know what to say. Even though my parents are still together, adult children of alcoholics have abandonment issues too. I've read a lot self help books in my life. One I really liked is Women Who Love Too Much by Robin Norwood. My ex husband and I were together from when we were teens until last year, so I never had to deal with being left by a partner myself until recently, but in the book the author talks about what you described. It's really helpful and eye opening. You should read it, I think you'll like it. RJJ12 and Gisselle you guys need to be more specific with examples and who you're referring to because I don't know what you guys are talking about. I haven't seen anyone be crucified on here in a long time. Disagreeing with others and stating one's opinion is not the same as crucifying. If anything I feel like everyone, including myself, has been more tolerant lately. People have stated that if they don't like the types of posts certain members write, they just stop reading their posts altogether instead of going off on them. Maybe that's why it seems like some people get free rein. (Monday 13 April 2015; 5:14)

Abraham / Issac Ortiz (51,679) by Giselle #1 Mariah Critic from USA Boy bye, the only one always negative here is you. I never directly address you even though this is the second post you directed at me. If you don't like what I write, you're free to scroll on down and ignore like most here do. You're the main person here who is always personally attacking others who don't agree with you. Because you're mentally to immature to know that not everyone is going to agree or share your opinions. So bye Felicia, how are you doing? (Monday 13 April 2015; 4:06)

Shelly (51,678) by Deedre aka MiTodoChop @HBF from Canada I echo your sentiments. I feel we think very alike in many areas of life too. I really like the new cover and the homage to the original album cover. Team Mariah really seems to be bringing it (so far). They've made big improvements to her official website in terms of keeping it current ect (it wasn't that way for a long time). I feel really good about the move to Sony. Already, it feels like Mariah is with a label much more invested. Also, I think the "to infinity" is hilarious. It's so Mariah's humour. She cracks me up. (Monday 13 April 2015; 3:27)

#1 to infinity (51,677) by Raphael from Brazil Love the cover. As I said I hope they remaster the old tracks, put them in chronological order and Infinity as 19th track (It would be so cool if Infinity chart at number one.) (Monday 13 April 2015; 3:26)

Typo (51,676) by Luke from United Kingdom So I meant to just write "#1 To Infinity" in my last post but typed out the word "number" as well Lol. I'm a bit tired. (Monday 13 April 2015; 1:45)

Infinity art cover (51,675) by Terna from Nigeria I love the new cover, I think it's sleek. Look at her pose, she knows she's a queen lol. And that album title, wow this chanteuse ain't playing this year, she's bringing her A game. Mariah is gaining her confidence back, she is coming for that Beatles record. The butterfly has the infinity math symbol incorporated into it. (Monday 13 April 2015; 1:44)

Frustrated lamb (51,672) by 123 from USA That is the best video I've seen in weeks Webmaster. I purposely didn't wake up when the countdown was done because I had a feeling that, 1. It wasn't going to be a song like I'd hoped, 2. There was still going to be something else that might go along with it. Glad I was right. I love how the poor lamb was having a meltdown because they couldn't see what the new cover was and kept sharing to get the website to show the new cover. Looks like their promotional idea paid off, even if some of the lambs had a meltdown because of it. Lol. (Monday 13 April 2015; 0:28)

Thoughts / May / Bill (51,671) by Dove from USA She will be #1 to Infinity. I love the album cover. I like that she looks hot, but not like a teenager, and that they left her body a little bit thicker. This is what she looked like on Ellen which is what a lot of us had been asking for. I'm so excited. I love the dress, the shoes, her hair, the make up, and that it's simple. Happy birthday May. I hope it's a good one. Bill, you've been in a giddy mood lately and I like it. And I did notice you changed your avatar. Before you said anything I saw it and though, "Oh my goodness, did Bill really change his avi?" (Monday 13 April 2015; 0:28)

#1's To Inifinity (51,670) by B from USA Is the new single titled To Infinity? (Monday 13 April 2015; 0:27)

Reveal Mariah / album cover / Gisselle (51,669) by 123 from USA The marketing strategy is brilliant with the countdown and the having to share in order for the cover to be revealed. I wish it was a song for all this whoopla but it shows her new team is not playing this time around. It's the most innovative marketing strategy they have had since I can't remember. The cover is a different story. I don't care for the dark make up and black dress, it is not flattering. The dress looks very similar to the one in the Mimi tour book. I know its an old picture but I prefer the pic she used for the Vegas promotion from E=MC2. It was never used and she looks beautiful, ethereal and regal in that pic. Plus I love her black and white pics. 1 to Infinity is a bold statement, especially when she is behind the Beatles. With a title like that, she better have some hot songs and great promotion and performances. A title like that better mean she is ready to bring her A game and go for more number ones. Gisselle, I agree with you as well with the cover and how anyone with an opinion that isn't praising Mariah is crucified on this board while that "one guy" can say the most visceral things on this board regarding Mariah and he gets 20 thumbs up.

Infinity Butterfly (51,668) by enwar00 from usa Did you guys notice the infinity symbol at the bottom of the butterfly on the new cover? Pretty slick. (Monday 13 April 2015; 0:16)

#1's To Infinity (51,667) by cBerr from Canada First off, Iove the artwork. It's simple, yet bold and stunning. I would have enjoyed a new single (or a snippet or something) but I will take this knowing that information should now be coming soon. Just something small that I noticed. They've gone back to the style of font used during her Sony/Columbia days. It's a minor detail, but something I noticed almost immediately when the reveal was at about 10%. (Monday 13 April 2015; 0:14)

New album cover (51,666) by Tiina from Finland I like it, it's very classic Mariah. The whole countdown to the reveal was a smart move by the way. Her new team is already proving to be on point. So excited for this era. (Monday 13 April 2015; 0:09)

#1 to infintiy (51,665) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Finally, after spending the entire day in front of my laptop. I love the cover, I love the title. She must be feeling really confident now to actually use that title. Makes me hopeful for this era. This is just the beginning. More details are apparently coming tomorrow. (Monday 13 April 2015; 0:05)

Mariah Carey (51,663) by Luke from United Kingdom She will be number 1 to infinity. (Monday 13 April 2015; 0:00)

Title (51,662) by Sarah from Netherlands #1 to Infinity. Uhm. Interesting. I like the cover though. (Sunday 12 April 2015; 23:59)

#1's to Infinity (51,661) by Bill from the UK Wow. Brilliant. (Sunday 12 April 2015; 23:56)

VOL performance / 25 years in music deserve more releasings (51,660) by MC1989 from Spain Great to watch it. Thanks for posting it. I believe it's from the 25 Countdown from 1990 where she also slayed Love Takes Time. When is Sony going to release these live performances on a DVD? A compilation of her best live performances in these 25 years would be the greatest way to mark and celebrate her 25 years in music. I like the idea of reissuing #1's but I miss something related to the anniversary of the debut album. A deluxe edition with pictures from 1990, the videos from Vision Of Love to There's Got To Be A Way and live material from that era would be a nice and appropiate way of outmarking the importance of such a great debut album. Also, this year Daydream turns 20, one of the biggest selling albums of the 90's. (Sunday 12 April 2015; 23:55)
