YDKWTD (44,365) by Marissa from USA I'm so glad multiple sources are saying that YDKWTD is the next single. I feel like Thirsty would get lost in a sea of other hip hop songs. YDKWTD feels very unique and fresh to me. Pop has always been her sweet spot so I think this has great potential, but for goodness sake she needs to promote the hell out of it. Music doesn't sell itself for her anymore. (Saturday 31 May 2014; 21:04)

Album charts (44,364) by pharaoh_shawn from New Zealand Official albums charts of New Zealand and Australia are in, since Me I Am Mariah was released on the 22nd of May and it didn't do too well #11 in NZ. Better in Australia, #5. This album is a gem, once it gets out there more I am sure more people will start buying it. Lets hope a single comes now. (Saturday 31 May 2014; 20:32)

Mimi L / music videos (44,363) by Billy from England, UK Yeah I totally agree with you. Heartbreaker is one of my fave videos too. (Saturday 31 May 2014; 20:06)

Loris / YDKWTDO no rap (44,362) by M from USA I am dying to hear the single mix with no rap. Can anyone direct me? I tried Loris' link. It's in Japanese so I am not able to access it to play it. Does anyone know for sure when this gets delivered to radio? (Saturday 31 May 2014; 19:56)

Billy (44,361) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter That would really be awesome. This album has so many great songs and since Mariah kept saying that it reflects her journey over the last few years and that she sequenced the songs so that they form a story, it would be really nice to have her do videos for each song. One video can lead to another. Whatever video she releases next I hope it has a good concept and she doesn't end up just staring at the camera and touching herself. She should look back at great videos like Honey, Heartbreaker, Breakdown, all the videos from TEOM and take note. (Saturday 31 May 2014; 19:35)

Music videos (44,360) by Billy from England, UK I was thinking I would love Mariah to do a video for every song on this album and have them tell a story on each one seeing as she said this album is a journey to her. I think it would be amazing. And I love this album so much. The songs which I can't stop replaying these past few days have been Dedicated and Money, two of my faves there so catchy.

How a Mariah Carey skeptic finally fell for the elusive chanteuse (44,359) by Loris from Italy "Hers is the democratic redistribution of power and charisma through the intercession of the arpeggio, the giggle, and the divine grace note." Read this great article here. (Saturday 31 May 2014; 15:57)

Bill (44,358) by Darryle from USA Don't go off of my word because I could be wrong but I went and listened and I think it's goosed than them other fools. After supposed to be I think it's acting like I know you notice me fantasize about the way you lick your lips fingertips on your hips as we dip. I think these are the correct lyrics but I'd wait until Mariah releases them to make sure. (Saturday 31 May 2014; 15:52)

Stephen (44,357) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Lol well yes I agree with you about J.Lo not being worth anyone's time and I figured you would definitely know who J.Lo is because hey, all die hard lambs of MC know Miss Lopez. (Saturday 31 May 2014; 15:04)

Loverboy (Firecracker) (44,356) by Bill from the UK The remix to Loverboy on the Glitter album kind of features the Firecracker sample. Da Brat's "hate on me" rap is to the tune of Firecracker, and rather cleverly calls out J. Lo ("you can't do what the (cough) I do, just be imitating me daily"). I imagine and would hazard a guess that the chorus to Loverboy was originally sung to that melody. (Saturday 31 May 2014; 14:17)

NBC Special (44,355) by Rón from United Kingdom Can somebody please record the NBC special airing tonight for fans who are not in the US? It will be too good to miss. Thank you. (Saturday 31 May 2014; 12:18)

Stephen (44,354) by Licia from USA Tell us how you really feel. Lol. (Saturday 31 May 2014; 11:43)

Jorge (44,353) by Licia from USA I am also in Houston and I was confused about them not showing it too. What I found out is that it will be showing on a channel called This at 8 pm. Go to your cable company and see what channel it is. I have Comcast so the channel is 320. I'm at work so I won't be able to see if its a working channel until I get home. Let me know how it goes. (Saturday 31 May 2014; 11:25)

Mimi L. (44,352) by Stephen from London, United Kingdom I totally get your point, and agree with it for the most part, I was just playing lol. For the avoidance of doubt, I do know who J. Lo is, I just don't care for her, or what she stands for. I don't want to discuss her any further, she's a waste of my oxygen, finger movements, and time. (Saturday 31 May 2014; 11:13)

Lee / TR (44,351) by Bill from the UK I'm obsessed with every single note of MILG. I have played the song 50 times a day minimum since the album came out, it is glorious, and the best thing she has ever done. I can't work out if she says "gooder than them other guys" or "gooder than them other fools", and no idea what she says rapidly before "supposed to be" in the chorus. But I get what you're saying about her voice sounding like a harmonica. It just blends with the instrument Stevie plays perfectly. I am so glad there are others on here who "get" the song lol. It is an absolute masterpiece. (Saturday 31 May 2014; 9:47)

I'm just curious about it (44,350) by Peter from Hi guys. I just wanna know if Loverboy (Firecracker) version had ever existed? I really love that song of Mariah but I wanna hear the "Firecracker" version so bad. (Saturday 31 May 2014; 8:43)

Loris / YDKWTDO no rap (44,348) by Stacey from USA I had problems with the website. Can you or someone else send me the song? I would be in heaven if I had a no rap version. You don't know how over joyed I would be. Please? Email: daydreamer.butterfly@gmail.com (Saturday 31 May 2014; 8:31)

MIAM sales (44,347) by Andrew crisostomo from Canada, niagara falls I can't come to understand why the sales forecast is low. I think just based on the lamibily it should be sell near a million every time. She has 15 million followers on twitter so even if a fraction of those are lambs it should sell a bunch. Maybe the forecast is just based on iTunes. I don't know because I know the lambs go out and rather buy the physical copies like I did (2 copies physical plus 1 iTunes digital) and also think Mariah actually sells internationally too. She's global and some of these artists aren't, so worldwide she may be selling better. I actually think these numbers are wrong. What other fanbase buys multiple copies? Lambs.

To The Floor (44,346) by enwar00 from usa That is so funny, I was just listening to The Emancipation Of Mimi the other day and repeated To The Floor a couple times because I was enjoying it. I even thought about how it used to be called Tonight. Made me miss the old Neptunes sound. (Saturday 31 May 2014; 7:00)

Single choices / promotion (44,345) by Skip from United States Good points and observations, Bill from UK and PJW. You're both right. There were sometimes good reasons for the single changes at IDJ, and there were definitely times on Columbia where single choices were scuttled for various reasons. I suppose the difference I see with Mariah's current label and the incidences brought up from the Columbia years is that, even when a choice is ultimately made now, it still doesn't feel like a 100% commitment. And I don't necessarily think Mariah is always right in what she thinks should be a single. (Personally, I think "Against All Odds" would've been a smash here in America over "Can't Take That Away", but who knows for sure.) What I'm saying is Mariah and the label need to come to a consensus and then spend equal energy promoting the heck out of that chosen song. If either half of that equation doesn't believe in the selection, it's never gonna see its full potential. And when the whole team isn't working together towards a common goal, it feels like the engine doesn't have enough horsepower, when it totally could otherwise. Considering Mariah's social media savvy, I wonder why she doesn't get creative and start doing more to promote her music that way. For example, if she had performed YDKWTD while riding that subway car last night and posted that YouTube, that would've gone viral and exposed the song. (Saturday 31 May 2014; 2:57)

Houston KPRC (44,341) by TR from USA Hi. Uhm I might be in theinorotu here but I do feel the UNCF might be a bit more important than an MC special that you will probably be able to find online the next day. I'm sorry of that sounds harsh but the UNCF is a charity organization. I'm sure Mimi would agree. (Saturday 31 May 2014; 2:43)

Funny story (44,340) by Nicole from US Today I left my spotify on in my computer in my classroom. My last class came in and girl saw spotify with MIAM up. She then told this other kid to put it on Thirsty. That girl was singing it like she already knew the song. It played and my students liked it. Of course, my school is labeled "ghetto" in North Carolina but then again, I see that if Thirsty gets played in Urban stations, it would be catchy. This girl might have heard it from the radio station. I was amazed how seniors in high school loved the song. They were like, "Who sings it?" And then I heard someone says Mariah Carey. Lol. Just wanted to share. (Saturday 31 May 2014; 2:40)

Please help me ask Houston KPRC channel 2 to air NBC special (44,339) by JJ from Good Times from USA Houston's local NBC channel has the UNCF concert airing at the time the Mariah special was supposed to be on. Please help me ask them to air Mariah. I created a template to use. "Hello KPRC. I noticed that on May 31, 2014 you are scheduled to air UNCF concert. The Today show reported that a special with Mariah Carey would be airing at the same time but it's not on your listing. Will you be airing it? Please air the show as there are plenty of Mariah fans that watch KPRC and would like to watch the show." Follow link, select programming and then copy and paste Thanks everyone.

My top 5 (really difficult thankfully): 1) Cry. 2) Faded 3) YDKWTD 4) Camouflage 5) Meteorite Unfortunately I was disappointed as many of you with the "Deluxe" song selection, I was hoping that new songs would be included.
