Bliss (103,065) by Bobby A from United States

Lol. Definitely have a hot playlist there. The beauty about Bliss is that it was MC's only sexual themed song until One Mo Gen. I like Bliss better because MC's vocals and incredible whistle notes. Tommy would never have allowed a Bliss type of song prior to 1999. Lol.

Don't laugh. Bliss is on my sex playlist. Along with Janet Jackson's Would You Mind. Rope Burn, Toni Braxton's Maybe, Trey Songz Neighbors Know My Name, Janet Jackson's Anytime Anyplace, Usher's Dot.com, Madonna's Justify My Love, Ciara's Promise, Twista's Rain Down on Me, Ashanti's Rescue, Beyoncé's Speechless. TLC's Red Light Special, George Michael's Father Figure. Bliss is the only MC song I can be horizontal with another with. Hey, ya'll promised not to laugh. Check out some of these songs if you don't know them.

The songbird supreme (103,062) by Bobby A from United States

This is wonderful news. $60 million is from the streaming sales of AIWFCIY each year and the other $20 million from her residual and retail income from her regular music. I wonder what her total worldwide album sales for The Rarities is now after two years.

Mariah Carey's net worth has been officially updated and is now exceeding $600 miilion, with an annual income of $80m (via Alux). I love good news.

Bliss (103,060) by Lady B from USA

I listened to Bliss again for the first time in a long time. So hauntingly beautiful, slowly building sensuality, a strikingly different use of the whistle, lustful ballad. One of my favorites. I think it's highly underrated.

How did you know I attended the London stop of the Daydream tour? I've never mentioned it before lol. But seriously what a night that was. What a night.

Time for lists lol (103,057) by Bobby A from United States

I have it down in my Mariah book one time each in the MIAM era and the early part of the Caution era when GTFO and With You were released.

Your statement is false. I won't call it a lie because you are not being discourteous. Play nice, now.

You messing with Daydream? (103,055) by Terna from Nigeria

Yet she pays it absolute dust and only acknowledges ABMB. Just throw that whole record and era away and put in a year's vacation for her to rest her voice, with no world tour and especially that date you attended (hehe) and maybe Mariah would still have a little semblance of voice left. That Daydream era and world tour ruined her voice.

Music Box is perfect (as her debut album also was), Daydream is to me, almost there. Butterfly was on fire, like Glitter was. So much good music.

You messing with Daydream? (103,051) by MusicfanJ from Germany

Yes it is. I became a Mariah fan because of this album. (I still have the original cassette.) It's perfect. I played it at my school times for everyone, and most of them loved it too. It's the ultimate Mariah album besides "debut", "Emotions", and "Music Box". I'll love it forever and ever.

You messing with Daydream? (103,050) by Bobby A from United States

Right To Dream is one of my favorite MC songs that never did anything commercially, but it is probably one her best written songs post Glitter era. I really think Willie Nelson really helped MC write a gem. I wish that she would take more chances with other singer/songwriters and not just for a special project or movie. By the way Glitter and TEOM are #3 and #4 for magnum opus.

You messing with Daydream? (103,049) by Randy from USA

Ahem. Butterfly is her magnum opus. Daydream is second. But I would never slam Daydream. It was the first CD I owned by her. Everything before that was cassette. And about banning Andrew. Isn't that request getting old. Kinda like me talking about 1997, Right to Dream and the 2006 Grammy cut and paste job. We are a dysfunctional family. All of us are needed. Terna gets on my last nerve and I would never want him banned or to stop posting. We love everybody.

It is just perfect from start to finish. It's definitely her magnum opus.

I never thought I'd see the day where Daydream gets slammed on this board. Wow. It's honestly perfect from start to finish.

No controversial song or video (103,044) by Stacey from USA

Jason Aldean's song is not controversial. SMH. Go read Cardi B WAP lyrics and watch her lovely video then compare that to Aldean. The only controversy is the one the media is creating. Next.

You messing with Daydream? (103,043) by Stacey from USA

It's a good thing we aren't face to face, lol. I'd have to take the necessary steps to defend Daydream. Randy, I know exactly the version you are talking about. That's my favorite version of Fantasy too. I absolutely love every song on that album. Looking In is my life's theme song. From the amazing bridge to I Am Free to the sultry layering of vocals on Melt Away, Daydream just oozes perfection. The album includes the emotion that maybe was missing on MB for some. Now back away slowly from Daydream and no one gets hurt.

Emotionally stiff (103,042) by Andrew from the UK

I would like to associate myself with your sentiments somewhat. However, people are of course entitled to express opinion but lies must be challenged If I were, for example, to claim that Aqua's Barbie Girl is a direct copy of Meat Loaf's Bat Out of Hell - that is flatly denying obervable reality. Any suggestion that "It's their opinion and they're entitled to it" is rather problematic because it assumes that a lie can be justified under the umbrella of individulism and self-expression. In any case, it's just planily stupid - and it very much is, so I am declaring it - to say that everything else on Daydream is a copy of Fantasy and One Sweet Day. Now if someone wants to state such a thing and provide, then, evidence to support the hypothesis, that's an argument, that's good, that can be debated in an attempt to discover truth. I recall a few years ago asking to no response what people meant on this board by declaring "everything Mariah realsed since 2005 is a copy of We Belong Together." I asked, if they meant, the harmonies, the theme, the style, the phrasing, the melody, the... whatever. I still don't know. I can't hear We Belong Together in Touch My Body which was refreshingly different for Mariah. I can't hear it in Obsessed. Nor can anyone who isn't deaf of very hard of hearing or just stupid for stupid's sake hear Fanasy or One Sweet Day in Looking In. The claim is false, there is nothing to support it as it stands and any attempt to dress it up as an opinion is at best unhelpful and at worst just stupid. Lies ust be challenged. Flatly denying observable reality is lying. Now somebody may not like the rest of the album, and that's fine. I would support them in shouting it from the rooftops, were they so inclined. But some eivdence to support my rather excellent argument: it's a positively stupid claim given that, as I understand it to have been, Underneath The Stars was the first song written and recorded for Daydream. So unless Tommy Mottola had a time machine (which I am namng the Time-y Mottola), as Judy Sheindlin put it: "Don't piss on my leg and tell me it's raining." Peace out.
