Album kick off (43,075) by Blake from USA I keep having this vision that "Thirsty" is going to be the song fans have been waiting for... for years. A video with no boobs hanging out, no laying down and perhaps a storyline with a new style/look for our queen. "Don't count me out", "you can never write off talent".

Re: Dan (43,074) by Blake from USA I agree with you on the cover of YME was not the best. I almost feel they did that to call it a "Valentine single" should it flop as it did. The song grew on me but it still lacks in so many ways and this is just my opinion. It had no verse chorus verse chorus bridge structure. I also felt the vocal was weak and how many WBT sequels (Bye Bye, I stay In Love) do we have? Maybe from all the wine drinking her vocal has gotten weak. As much as I love her belting, I can do without the whistle at times. I think we may be getting vocals from 2010-2012 for the majority of this new album. I actually hope that is true because we all know she was writing/recording during her pregnancy and her vocals were pretty amazing during that time: MC2Y. (Wednesday 30 April 2014; 23:36)

Lamb for life (43,073) by michelle montances from philippines Hi. This is my first time to post a comment here but I've been visiting this site for a very long time. I'm a true blooded lamb since the VOL era. My favorite MC song is Underneath The Stars. I do wish that Mariah would make a Whitney cover for her next album. (Wednesday 30 April 2014; 23:17)

Carly (43,072) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Hey Carly, where did you get the other pic of MC and the mini quiz thing? It was fun to read. (Wednesday 30 April 2014; 22:49)

You're Mine (Eternal) and Mariah's sexy side (43,070) by Marquise from USA I find it funny when people say You're Mine (Eternal) flopped because it was a poor song, no it flopped because it didn't get no promo besides one TV performance. So how do you expect it to soar up the charts if people don't know about the song? Even without any promo it did decent on other charts, and went #1 on the Dance Club chart so it wasn't a complete flop. But just imagine if she did promote this song, if it did decent without promo, maybe with promo it would crack the top 20. Have you noticed when Mariah promotes her single it does fairly well? Idk if You're Mine was supposed to be a buzz track or what because it's weird to release a song but not support it. So maybe this next single is the real official single. Also I think Mariah looks very sexy in her Wonderland cover. If you still got it then you better work it honey aint nothing wrong with being sexy. She is a grown woman, she isn't the first or last at her age to do sexy things like this. If you look good, do you thang boo. PS. Happy anniversary Mimi and Nick. Happy birthday Roc and Roe.

Image (43,068) by George Golden from UK I see a lot some fans are not happy with fans complaining about miss Carey. Well as a fan I love Mariah to bits and want to see her do well. I can not love everything she does. She is an amazingly beautiful woman, but anytime she does sexy it somehow does not translate very well, be it a video or magazine cover. Beautiful was ruined by the video. The way she was acting turned a lot of people off. I can't really tell her what to do, but I just feel she was a billion times better when she did not try too hard.

Happy and Problem (43,067) by andy from philippines Don't worry guys, "Happy" is only on its 9th week in number one and Ariana and Iggy's "Problem" is doing great on top of the charts, currently number one on iTunes. (Wednesday 30 April 2014; 18:28)

Mariah playing catch up now (43,066) by Me. I am Carly from USA I fully expect Mariah to be looking A++. Stellar when we see the anniversary pictures. I honestly believe that she did not intend to go to the Billboard shoot because she wants to be on her A game with the newest photos. I did not buy the got kicked in the face story, I bet she feels like she is to focused right now on trying to pull things together to be ready for a full article and shoot.

4/30 (43,065) by ACMRitz from United States Happy 6th Anniversary to Mariah and Nick. Also, happy 3rd birthday to DemBabies, Monroe and Moroccan. This is such a special day for Mariah, I am sure she will keep her followers updated with how she is celebrating. (Wednesday 30 April 2014; 16:00)

I seem to notice (43,063) by Gerald from USA by the way of NYC I seem to notice some fans come to this message board to vent and complain about the same thing. As a fan from 1902 I can say I don't agree with all that MC does but she is human and she has to live with her choices. I am frustrated with the album politics but that doesn't mean I won't support MC because of it. That's how the music industry works, all artists go through this at some point. Ask any successful act and they will tell that this is how the music business works. By the way, happy 3rd birthday to Roc and Roe and happy 6th anniversary to Mr.and Mrs. Cannon. Enjoy your festive day. (Wednesday 30 April 2014; 15:54)

Wonderland Magazine (43,062) by Bradley Zirker from United States What is with all the negative comments involving Mariah Carey's cover on Wonderland Magazine? Personally I think she looks amazing. Especially at her age plus two kids. It is so sad to see people bash her like that. She is a mother, but she is a grown woman at the same damn time. If she wants to show some skin, then she has the right. If it was Rihanna, Beyoncé, Katy Perry or Ciara, then it would be fine with everybody but because it's Mariah Carey, it is a issue. Get the [censored] outta here with all of that bullshit. Mariah Carey is gorgeous. (Wednesday 30 April 2014; 15:37)

Rappers collabo (43,061) by Alex from England It is funny to me reading that "every song has to have a rapper on it" when all 17 songs off MOAIA had no rappers on them and when only 1 out of 5 songs released since 2012 included raps. What I do know for sure is people will never be satisfied, you just can't please everyone at the same time and that's normal. Also I think I should remind some people about who Mariah is: - A woman who has liked acting sexy since 1997 and it is NOT gonna change. - A woman whose voice has lost some of its early shine and will lipsynch sometimes but can still sing. - A woman who doesn't have to communicate with fans and yet does. Maybe not every day like some of you would like though. - A woman who is an artist, therefore will write/sing songs she likes hopefully some people will connect. Some of you should stop thinking Mariah will cater to your special needs just because you feel she should listen to you as you have bought all her previous albums. At the end of the day, Mariah will be Mariah and those who complain about any and everything about her should face themselves in the mirror and maybe learn the "art of letting go". Peace.

Ready (43,060) by Darryle from USA I'm so ready for this album to be released. I'm done with all the confusion and the will it be all at once digital or same time stuff. I just want the album out on May 6th whether it's completely digital or physical copies I could care less. (Wednesday 30 April 2014; 15:02)

Expectations (43,059) by George Golden from UK From the look of that magazine cover Mariah is not going to "let go" of her "sexy image". I think she doesn't really care about the music anymore, just how she looks. It's sad because I don't really have a great expectation for the new album because she is imprisoned by that hip hop barbie image. The music is suffering. Every song has to have a rapper. Every video has to be tacky and trashy. It's frustrating to see such an amazing star fall from grace. The music is not evolving, still the same hip hop beats from 2005 ruining what would be great songs. The sexy thing is just so overplayed now, it's beyond ridiculous. If you are sexy and beautiful, you don't have to try hard at it. The Mariah Carey that most of us fell in love with is sadly not here anymore. (Wednesday 30 April 2014; 14:14)

Most plausible album titles (43,058) by juan from Dubai Thats funny. Too obvious, but I wish it'd be enigmatic, conceptual, but not corny or cliche. I'm new here, by the way, 90's fan. I have been a visitor since 2005 or earlier, I guess. (Wednesday 30 April 2014; 13:27)

Re: Adam (43,057) by Billy from Greece Your message verges dangerously on sexism. (Wednesday 30 April 2014; 13:26)

You're mine (43,056) by Dan from US I think the only reason it failed as a single is due to the cover art when you purchase it on iTunes. Who wants to look at candy hearts after Valentine's Day? It was a terrible choice for a cover. Thumbs up if you agree. (Wednesday 30 April 2014; 12:59)

Re: Jeremey (43,055) by Orkun from The Netherlands I agree completely with you. #Beautiful is the best song imo in a long time and very fresh. My definite favorite of the bunch. To me, Beautiful is the only exception. Great song. The rest was not creative or new at all. I promise I want to be wrong so much. And if she does have fesh sounds and good songs, I will post on here with a big happy smile on my face and say "now that's our girl". (Wednesday 30 April 2014; 12:03)

Random thoughts (43,054) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Mariah looks really good on the cover of Wonderland, although I do wish she didn't feel the need to take off her clothes so much. But hey, whatever, it's her choice to make. So yes, she looks hot but does the cover layout seem a little amateurish to anyone else? I really didn't hear about this magazine before (we don't get it here) but are the layouts always like this? It seems like someone just put random things on it. And although M looks good, something is missing, maybe the stark white background is a little bland? I don't know, something just seems missing. But moving on, so Mariah is listed to be on Letterman, CNN's Leading Women and the Today show concert. I hope we see a lot of her in starting from the first of May. If she wants her album to do well, she obviously needs to show up almost everywhere to let people know about it. I am sure a lot of people, even some fans are not aware of the album. She needs to really promote it and not leave it midway like she did with the singles. Beautiful was such a lost opportunity, it reached number 15 with almost no publicity, and had the potential to crack top 10 if not top 5 had she promoted it more. Same with You're Mine. Some lambs didn't like it (but I loved it and a lot of non lambs loved it too) so that song doesn't deserve to be at 88. It was just due to the lack of promotions. So I hope Mariah doesn't repeat the same mistake. (Wednesday 30 April 2014; 10:54)

Most plausible album titles (43,053) by rooftop from lebanon Thinking about that "possession and entity" MC had most of her life I came up with two plausible suggestions that would fit beautifully as the album title : 1: "Marilyn's White Piano", 2: "The Butterfly Ring". What do you all think? (Wednesday 30 April 2014; 9:46)

Release date (43,052) by enwar00 from usa I hope that the album is released before the Today performance on 5/16, so that they can capitalize on that promo. Also, so we can have it sooner than later. (Wednesday 30 April 2014; 8:33)

(43,051) by Brad Catoe from United States Can we please stop with all of the alcohol comments. I think it's so hilarious. I mean I know you can say what you want and it's a free country but the alcohol comments make my eyes roll all the way back in my head. You act like she's a drunk or something. I'm thinking the people who get "nervous" about Mimi's "drinking" don't have a splash. I have wine with dinner and drink on the weekends and it's not my security blanket. Hahaha give it a rest. (Wednesday 30 April 2014; 7:48)

All of me (43,050) by Jeremey Carey from United States I've noticed how long "Happy" has been number one and I don't want it to reach 14 weeks. Do you guys think it would be possible if you could help me promote "All of me" by John Legend? He isn't really a threat for any MC stats and he'd be a quick fix to dethrone "Happy" before it comes for "One sweet day"s record. (Wednesday 30 April 2014; 3:50)

The IDJ issue / Ariana's "Problem" (43,049) by Edward from USA It is evident that Mariah is on a long term fight with IDJ. I think they're trying to make her life miserable before she leaves them. It seems to be that they didn't think the music Mariah had produced was well cooked. I can't wait for Mariah to go independent. In that way she could release what she wants whenever she wants. It could be EP's or full albums, but she would be completely in control. Even though I don't like the idea of Mariah being completely in control either. Maybe then she could be confident enough to write songs by herself a la Butterfly. Mariah is a such a good lyricist, but having a team of co-writers have taken some of the Mariah out of the music she's produced. I'm happy Ariana's "Problem" is exploding on the charts, because Pharrell's "Happy" is a threat to the "One Sweet Day" record. (Wednesday 30 April 2014; 1:55)
