Re: Shelly (48,149) by TJ from Norway What a voice in that clip. I can't say anything else than that. She's like the rest of us. Some days she sings better than others. She's human. About the "splashes": she's 44 years old and yes she like champagne. That doesn't mean that she's an alcoholic. I sometime drink prosecco, but I am so lucky that people don't record it on tape.

B, Justin / the heads of Mariah's fan committee (48,148) by Marcus from Brazil B, Justin, who are you to question whether I'm a real fan or not? Out 199 shows Mariah has performed during her entire tour life, I've been to 35, yes, three and four times to the same concert, that's how much of a fan I am. When you've accomplished that, come again. Mariah has always been an inspiration to me, to the point that since I was 6 until I was 12 my parents flew me out of the country to see her, I had to pull straight A's at school to win that. It just irks me to see the delusion of some people when they act like religious/cult fanatics. Baby is always talking about Mariah as if she was a helpless idiot, and I simply don't like it. In his/her mind, anything negative in Mariah's life is somebody else's fault. Mariah has been victimized, but she also has made mistakes, and been a fighter. To come here and paint Mariah as this goddess is kind of creepy to me, especially when Baby's pulling facts off his/her behind. As for Ariana, when she's at the level of the divine 3, Mariah, Whitney and Celine, then I'll consider been a fan. I like her first album though. (Tuesday 2 December 2014; 19:36)

Mariah's secret (48,145) by Ken from USA Anybody else think Mariah is hinting at the MIAM album art when she poses in the red gown in front of the Christmas tree? That's why she looks so secretive, right? (Tuesday 2 December 2014; 19:32)

Do you still beat your dead horse? (48,144) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End Mariah is a great artist. We now have almost 25 years where she has wowed us with her musicality, year after year, never slowing down. No other singer songwriter of her calibre has been as prolific. No other vocalist of her generation has been as influential. No other diva has ruled as many charts or managed to reign over so many different genres, sometimes even simultaneously. But that's not why Mariah will be remembered. It's her persona that's really cemented her place in the pantheon. Her lyrics have uplifted millions of people and given them hope and faith in another day when they were down. Her music is timeless and her voice is so unique, any successful impressions of it don't exist. Mariah is also very charismatic and authentic. She's very easy to like. You'd have to have serious issues to go around trying to convince her lambs that she's some lost soul riddled with "problems". Get over yourselves. No one is buying it. Ask Eminem and Christina why.

Mariah's voice (48,143) by Justin from USA - Los Angeles Idk what [...] talking about Marcus. But Mariah Carey in her worst will always slay all the current artists out there. She simply has [...] of this generation. She may not be the most popular artist but she definetly still has the voice. Idk if you checked out when she performed "The Elisove Chanteuse Show", but she had some killer vocal moments towards the end. I agree, do you like Mariah Carey? Or are you an Arianator sneaking their way onto this messageboard? (Tuesday 2 December 2014; 17:17)

Christmas in Rockefeller Center (48,141) by B from USA I think Mariah is going to slay this performance. After the Tokyo debacle and the media attention that night, she's going to sing live and slay. Her voice is in fine form, it improved with each night of the tour. Mariah will always top the chats every year this time of the year. (Tuesday 2 December 2014; 15:54)

Darryle (48,140) by Bill from the UK This post has a leaked track listing from what I believe was the original TAOLG album. You'll see Make It Look Good, You're Mine, YDKWTD and TAOLG were all there originally. No mention of Supernatural though. (Tuesday 2 December 2014; 14:49)

VH1 and radio (48,139) by B from USA Both are playing Mariah's Christmas music and introducing a new generation to Mariah. I think Mariah's vocal peak or prime was 1994. Glad that these kids are getting to hear a real singer, who has written some of the greatest songs of all time. (Tuesday 2 December 2014; 14:27)

Marcus (48,138) by B from USA What are you talking about? I still enjoy Mariah's voice and I expect I always will. Baby wasn't saying her voice still sounds like it used to. Are you even a fan? Just wondering. (Tuesday 2 December 2014; 14:22)

My favorite Mariah ensemble (48,136) by Dove from USA If Mariah decided to pull a Albert Einstein/Mark Zuckerberg and wear the same thing everyday, I vote for this ensemble. She looks perfect IMO. I guess she did used to do that until people started complaining. She used to always wear little black dresses, jeans, jean shorts, and the white spaghetti strap tops. Remember in Cribs how she had a whole stack of them? (Tuesday 2 December 2014; 4:49)

Baby, baby, one more time? (48,135) by Marcus from Brazil Baby's delusion: "Mariah is in great shape vocally and always has been. The only difference is that the frequency of her live performances has increased magnanimously from her debut to now." If there were a cult called Mariah, you would definitely be a hardcore indoctrinated member. In your eyes, Mariah is a victim of all her circumstances, Nick, the media, her friends, her so called fans, her nodules. She is not responsible for anything, she's just been wronged. Mariah is definitely in good shape vocally, but to say great would be an overstatement. Up until 2000 she delivered 6, 9, 12 and 19 shows per tour respectively, with 2 and 3 years in between, how is that magnanimous? The Charmbracelet tour put her in great shape vocally because she delivered 69 shows, her biggest tour so far. Since then her live performances have decreased dramatically. Mariah is a human being with problems like the rest of us, she's not a goddess who can't do not wrong, she makes mistakes and goes through what most of us go through. Be realistic with your ranting if you want to be taken seriously. (Tuesday 2 December 2014; 4:43)

In honor of AIWFCIY and Mariah's quips (48,134) by Jono from USA This throwback gem is still one of my favorites by our Queen. American Idol contestant: "All I Want For Christmas is the best modern-day Christmas song." Nicki Minaj: "It sure was, wasn't it?" Mariah: "Still is, dahling. No. 1 last year. Seventeen years later, it's still No.1" Make that 20. (Tuesday 2 December 2014; 4:01)

Mariah (48,133) by B from USA Mariah's voice is in better shape than Whitney's was. I'm not dissing Whitney, she's my second favorite singer of all time. If Mariah was an alcoholic like Whitney was, of course Whitney did cocaine and crack which is what ruined her voice. Mariah may drink but she's not an alcoholic. She's not stupid, she knows it would ruin her voice. She most likely drinks in moderation, taking her voice into consideration. (Tuesday 2 December 2014; 0:13)

Mariah Carey blooper reel (48,132) by Darryle from USA I just rewatched a video back from when Mariah was promoting #Beautiful. At one point she said "You make the beat go." Those are lines from Supernatural and the video was posted in July of 2013. I wonder how many songs that were originally supposed to be on the album made it to the album? So far Supernatural and YDKWTD were probably on the original album. (Monday 1 December 2014; 23:51)

Baby from Sweden (48,131) by TJ from Norway Are you always that angry? (Monday 1 December 2014; 23:21)

MC20 cheers (48,129) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End Splashes of hot cocoa with butterscotch schnapps would go great with AIWFCIY at #13 and Merry Christmas at #12 on Swedish iTunes today, right? I'll be having warm Christmas wine with raisins, nuts and spices like I always do. *plays Merry Christmas CD* (Monday 1 December 2014; 22:18)

Mariah iTunes (48,128) by Travon..SweetSweetFantasy from USA Merry Christmas is now number 12 on the chart. (Monday 1 December 2014; 20:25)

Re: Merry Chistmas 20 year (48,127) by Dove from USA It's about supporting your favorite artist and helping them get back on the charts. If they're on the charts people will talk about it and it could gain her new fans. Also, if she's popular she's more likely to release new music. It's $6 in the US, which is pretty inexpensive. It would have been nice for more tracks to be included but it was started by fans, not the people releasing the music. (Monday 1 December 2014; 20:04)

Festive at its best (48,126) by Lee TS from USA Merry Christmas. The right way. (Monday 1 December 2014; 19:57)

Ally McBeal (48,125) by Stacey from USA For some reason the audio at the end wasn't working. Anywho, I am glad fans of Ally McBeal got to hear such a fantastic song. It's always bugged me over the years more people didn't get to hear Lead The Way. IMO, it's one of her best ballads, so raw and emotional. Thanks for the reminder Lee. I need to listen to that song again. (Monday 1 December 2014; 19:11)

Might as well face it (48,124) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End Just because you yourselves can't handle splashes without drinking a whole bottle doesn't mean everybody else can't. And what does Mariah's 20 year old schtick about florescent lighting have to do with anything other than comedy? That's how weak your material is, that you have to use filler to make a post because your examples are as flimsy as it gets. You really should get help for your addiction to bullshit. I'm sure if you reached out to Mariah in earnest, she would put you through rehab. Or at the very least she would pray for you. Merry Christmas. (Monday 1 December 2014; 18:20)

Merry Chistmas 20 year (48,123) by Chicago Lamb from USA I'm all about supporting Mariah, but why would I spend $ and purchase the album again? It should have been released with extra tracks or something. (Monday 1 December 2014; 18:18)

Feeling kinda torn (48,122) by nancy barnes from Georgia Hi Mariah. I just want to say that I have loved your music since I was a little girl and I still do. Matter of fact you and Whitney Houston are my all time favorites ever. But I am just so torn about you and Nick. It would be so wonderful if you and him could get back together. I really was hoping that your marrage with him would make it. Anyways just my thoughts. Happy Holidays. (Monday 1 December 2014; 16:27)

Black Widow (48,121) by B from USA I'm watching MTV this morning and if Mariah had released Thirsty as a single, with a great video directed by Brett or Paul, it could have been as big as Black Widow. The similarities between those songs are obvious. I can't believe Katy Perry wrote part of that song. She must of have been listening to Mariah for inspiration, lol. (Monday 1 December 2014; 14:30)

MC20 (48,120) by Jamie Clarke from England "All I Want For Christmas Is You" is a modern Christmas classic. As Merry Christmas turns 20, we take a look at why it was so successful. (Monday 1 December 2014; 9:54)
