Mariah heavy metal (50,812) by Ardis Logic from Earth I have seen heavy metal remixes with other artist that were pretty good. So I "youtubed it" to see if there was any Mariah Carey heavy metal remix. This is what I found. Warning. It is scary and horrible but funny at the same time. I only listened to a few seconds of it. (That's all I could stand.) I could imagine MC doing vocals to an awesome heavy metal ballad similar to "Nothing Else Matters" by Metallica or "Symphony of Destruction" by Megadeth. I don't think it's gonna happen though. I think the heaviest song she ever did was "You Need Me" from the debut album. That song kicks ass. (Thursday 12 March 2015; 4:24)

Vegas (50,811) by Mara from United States Well just thought I would join in on all the love posted on this board today. Speaking of Mariah changing things up for Vegas, we know Big Jim is involved since he posted on twitter, also her dancers from the Elusive Chantuse Show are still involved, per their twitter page as well. Now I am hoping whoever is choreographing her Vegas show can bring out something more from these dancers than what we saw on TECS. I am not saying anything bad about them, they can only work with what people tell them to do, but we all know her last tour left a little to be imagined. I only hope they change things up and make things look more "higher budget" and more showtime Vegas like and not more of the same ol same ole. Anyhow, speaking of old posters on here, whatever happened to Stephen? Stephen if you still lurke here, some of us miss your posts. Come back, as no matter what you were a real fan of Mariah too. Lastly, people have mentioned if MC continues her Christmas shows, how fun would it be to have a full MCArchives meet up in NYC in December? I would be in. (Thursday 12 March 2015; 3:36)

Mariah's new record (50,810) by Ty from USA Finally, the cd will arrive the end of April, and Mariah is finally off Def Jam. Let's hope for a great single with stunning vocals written by the queen with amazing vocals and a incredible bridge or ending note that she will lip for her life in Vegas. Why am I thinking she will change "Someday" into an acoustic kiss off version. 2.015 people will be reminded who the real queen is. (Thursday 12 March 2015; 3:24)

Daydream and Shelly (50,809) by B from USA Daydream was the first album I bought. I waa ten years old. She's been my favorite ever since. Daydream is my favorite album ever. Mariah needs to make an album like Daydream that showcases her pop songwriting genius and her admiration for old school R&B and Hip Hop. If she made this type of album she'd easily regain her throne. (Thursday 12 March 2015; 3:15)

Showing MIAM some love (50,808) by Dove from USA I mentioned earlier no other album recaptured the essence of a moment like Daydream did. I thought about it some more and I actually think Butterfly and MIAMTEC also do. I just like Daydream better I guess. Maybe because it takes me back to when I first heard it. When I listen to MIAMTEC I actually feel like a lot of songs were written about my relationship: Cry, Faded, #Beautiful, Make It Look Good, You're Mine, You Don't Know What To Do, Camouflage, Money, One More Try, and Heavenly. Even those that don't apply (Thirsty, Meteorite, Dedicated, and Supernatural) I still like a lot. I think I've been trying not to feel the songs on MIAM too much because I'm finally almost 100% over my ex and I don't want to reopen those wounds or fall back into that wretched hole. I think in the future, when I'm fully indifferent, I will appreciate MIAM as much as Daydream. I'm glad it exists. Thanks Mimi. (Thursday 12 March 2015; 2:29)

Shelly (50,804) by B from USA Bruno's When I Was Your Man, Locked Out Of Heaven, Grenade, and Just The Way You Are. Happy Perez coproduced #Beautiful with Mariah and Miguel. Have you heard Adorn by Miguel? If not listen to it, asap. Frank Ocean is the only artist I suggested that I'm not familiar with but he's a critical darling that could make her step out of her comfort zone and do something radical. Something that takes people by surprise. Mark Ronson is the producer of Amy Winehouse's Back To Black, listen to My Tears Dry On Their Own. I'll compile a definite list in a day or two. (Thursday 12 March 2015; 1:59)

Shelly (50,803) by B from USA I will make you a list. Give me a day or two, love. (Thursday 12 March 2015; 1:51)

Hello (50,802) by B from USA Skydiving was produced by Timbaland. They've worked together before and I think it was a wise decision not to release Skydiving and 100%. Mariah Carey is better than that. She needs to reunite with Missy Elliot. Babydoll is one of Mariah's best songs and I think they should write a song or two for MC's next studio album. (Thursday 12 March 2015; 1:46)

Sia (50,801) by Luke from United Kingdom Call me crazy but while we're on the topic of Mariah branching out and working with new people, I think it would be amazing if she done something with Sia. She is hot right now and her voice has that rough vulnerability that Mariah kinda has now. I don't really know how Mariah would feel singing on stage with her though since she keeps herself anymous. I'd love to hear this though. Ah a guy can dream. (Thursday 12 March 2015; 1:24)

Mariah new sound (50,799) by Victor from Costa Rica Hi everybody. I would like to hear Mariah singing rock or metal. Or a classic acoustic ballad. Or maybe something autochthonic from places/countries that have a banner sound, like flamenco from Spain, samba from Brazil, etc. (Thursday 12 March 2015; 1:09)

Edward and Adam (50,798) by G.G. from USA I completely agree with both of your posts, 50,794 and 50,796. Spot on, both of you. (Thursday 12 March 2015; 0:57)

Edward (50,797) by Abraham from USA I agree, I think most would agree that Mariah needs a new sound, as well as working with new producers and artists. Sometimes an artists needs to take risks and try something that fans would never expect. Whatever Mariah releases, I'm looking forward to it. I think she definitely needs to get in the studio with Pharell and Timbaland. I want to say that I enjoyed everyone's posts today. All my favorites posted. Brandon, Shelly, Mimi L., Edward, as well LC, Travon, Bill, George, Ty and Baby. You all are the best lambs on the board. (Thursday 12 March 2015; 0:50)

Mariah's new album, production team (50,796) by ADAM from USA I can live and accept her voice in its current state however I cannot bear to witness another boring predictable album. While MIAM was a nice welcome after years of not being on the scene, it's a forgettable album that doesn't get replayed or have melodies I can't get out of my head. She keeps working with the same producers since 2005 and it shows. I'm not saying they're not talented but I think it's time to move on to different people you don't know. She needs to accept their hits/misses from the past and create new experiences that will invigorate her creativity and music. I think she's been going through (including MIAM) writer's block and creative block. Mary J Blige is an example of an RnB artist who created the same music over and over and took a risk and did London Sessions with a whole new team and her music is amazing now and fresh. Across many different genres Mariah could collaborate with producers and really make magic again. Some examples of collaborations could be Clive Davis, Bruno Mars, Adele, Daft Punk, Reba McEntire, Dolly Parton. It may sound strange at first but Mariah has the voice and talent to blend her sound with any artists at the mic. I think the public is ready to still root for Mariah with her limited voice, she just needs to bring on a new sound and not the same RnB records we've all heard before and are boring. JD should be banned from her lists of producers. How many B-side records can they continue to make? Anyone else agree with me? (Thursday 12 March 2015; 0:02)

Abraham / the holy nodules (50,795) by Edward from USA Abraham, I've thought for a long time now that maybe Mariah got some sort of surgery that didn't come out right. Even though I clearly understand that nothing stays the same, the quick decline of her voice has always baffled me. I will always support her, but to be honest, I haven't felt as excited about her projects as I used to. MIAMTEC is a great album, I love it, but I rarely find myself playing it. I think it is because while the music is great, her aver all sound has stayed the same. I would love something fresh and completely different. I think she can still make great music, she just has to take some risks, it might actually pay off. (Wednesday 11 March 2015; 22:42)

Beyond repair / Big Jim "Right" and Little Red Riding JD (50,794) by Edward from USA The relationship between Mariah and Walter is beyond repair. When they broke apart, Walter wasn't expressing any kind of desire to work with Mariah again because he was still a hot producer for Celine, Savage Garden and others. Now that he's desperate, he's trying to reconnect, but his reaching out doesn't come across as sincere to me. We, Aries people, stand for loyalty, we might forgive a betrayal just to move on with our lives. Mariah is a huge comeback album, a marriage, two babies, another great Christmas album, and another divorce apart from Walter. They are in completely different places, they are like strangers, it's been 18 years. Just like most producers, Walter's mojo is gone, but Mariah's still able to produce great music or get a hit even if it's not a #1, but a hit nonetheless. I don't mind Mariah working with JD or Big Jim, they can still produce great music, but other than great music, Mariah also needs to deviate a bit from her formula and typical sound. Mariah came a winner out of the 90's when others stayed there because she experimented with different sounds. No matter how great the music is, if she doesn't experiment as a way to transition, I'm afraid we'll be getting the same old music that only us fans connect to. (Wednesday 11 March 2015; 22:20)

Mariah (50,793) by Abraham from USA I agree that no one can make music and albums like Mariah. She's still the best talent in the music industry today. I don't care if she can't sing like she used to. She still can deliver, and as long as she continues making albums I'm going to continue to buy them. Even if Mariah took better care of her voice I doubt it would sound like it did in the 90's. No one's voice remains the same as it did when they were younger. Every singer had their prime where she sounded amazing. Mariah's is past hers, but she can still sing better than any female today. She needs vocal training and rest. People who don't know her don't know she has nodules. And none of us know if she had some type of surgery done damaging her voice. All I know is that I'll be a fan for life no matter how she sounds. I'm ready for a killer album that will slay everybody. (Wednesday 11 March 2015; 21:10)

Walter (50,792) by Abraham from USA At first I thought it'd be cool if he and Mariah worked together again. But once I saw how he dissed and shaded her, I was done. And I can't understand why. Today he works with no name females with less talent and no careers lol. Mariah was the best thing that happened to him. *Bye*. (Wednesday 11 March 2015; 20:53)

Marissa / May (50,790) by Dove from USA Marissa, I felt that way too, until Jon summoned me, and now I can't stop. I enjoy your observations. May, I love Ribbon. I think it's so sexy, I just don't like how it starts. I liked MOIA and MIAM but I'm ready for something different now with full promo. I'm glad you're back. (Wednesday 11 March 2015; 20:32)

Brandon / Walter (50,789) by Dove from USA Brandon, if you have time can you make me a list of some songs by Happy Perez, Bruno Mars, Mark Ronson, Frank Ocean, and Miguel? These names keep being mentioned here but I have no idea what you all are talking about and I'm so curious. I don't want to just search the artists because I may not click the right songs. I do know Bruno Mars but I want to know what songs you're talking about. I was one of the people who did want for Mariah to work with Walter again because I feel they had great chemistry and brought out the best in each other musically. It was shady that he was making fun of her but I don't believe anyone is 100% bad. I believe every person has goodness in them, sometimes we just need to draw out those good qualities. We do that by focusing on them. But anyway, I've thought about it some more the past few days and even though it would be the perfect opportunity to write a song about forgiveness, if she really doesn't want to work with him for whatever reason I accept it. What about Stevie Wonder or Lenny Kravits? She sounds great doing classic rock like on Bringing On The Heartbreak and it's something different. I also like the song OMG by Usher and Will I Am. She's still young enough to make an EDM dance album. I like the songs with Big Jim Wright but they're so slow. A whole album like that would be boring. Even Want You is too slow. Sorry BJW. (Wednesday 11 March 2015; 19:51)

Daydream (50,788) by Dove from USA Daydream is pure ethereal innocence. It describes love before you have ever truly experienced it, the kind that you only know from reading young adult novels or watching movies such as Twilight and Titanic. With Daydream I get so many feelings. I listened to it in the car this morning and Looking In came on. It made me cry a little. Especially the part where she sings, "Well here I am for all of them to bleed." The music is also so heartbreaking. Brandon, I see the similarities but to me Butterfly is Daydream a few years older and sexually active. Daydream actually feels like a daydream. I honestly adore all of her albums but Daydream is otherworldly and flawless to me. I wouldn't want her to recreate it, because she's in a different place now, but just recapture the magic. By magic I mean the essence of a moment and carry it throughout the whole album. (Wednesday 11 March 2015; 19:14)

Walter (50,787) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter I too am not really bothered about MC not working with Walter. I mean I get it, she co-wrote some of her best work with him, but she did write equally good songs after him too. Time changes. So I am fine if she never chooses to work with him. (Wednesday 11 March 2015; 17:15)

TheVoice (50,786) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter She did recreate the Glitter promo shots. It's the one where she is wearing the one shouldered white dress. I'll attach a link with the post. If you scroll down, you'll see it right below the Butterfly cover homage. (Wednesday 11 March 2015; 17:13)

My All (50,785) by B from USA Walter and some DJ's dissed Mariah saying she made up the word emblazoned. Sorry, but it's an actual word. I just read the word in the Book of Esther in the Bible, for a college course I'm taking. Walter, who is a songwriter, should have known that it was an actual word. Sorry, Mariah doesn't need Walter. Walter needs Mariah. She's done just fine without him. He clearly tries to diminish her songwriting talent every chance he gets. He has also said she made up the word abandonedly. Walter get a dictionary, asap. (Wednesday 11 March 2015; 16:51)

MC interview (2000) (50,784) by Billy from Greece That's a short but very nice interview with Molly Meldrum. I love "Rainbow" era Mariah. She was the the most "Mariah" she's ever been. (Wednesday 11 March 2015; 16:49)

Thanks (50,783) by B from USA Thanks, Shelly. I adore you. Hello, Marissa. I've missed you, too. Baby from Sweden, you know I love myself some you, lol. As for the goats I'm back. The goats know who they are. I will not let their negativity stop me from participating on this board. Also, I've been visiting this site since it was launched. It's my go to site for Mariah Carey news. I was never a fan of Mariah Daily. (Wednesday 11 March 2015; 16:41)
