YME video (41,172) by Ryan from the Philippines Ok, so I saw this still photo of Mariah herself in the YME video and it looks absolutely stunning. Indrani have made something so magical. I just wondered why IDJ did not choose a still photo from the video and use it as the cover art for You're Mine. But ok, those candies still looked cute. (Wednesday 12 February 2014; 17:33)

Licia, iTunes (41,171) by Deedre aka MiTodoChop @HBF from Canada Blake is right, you literally have to search Mariah's name and the song title for it to come up. I couldn't download it before I did this. You might also try logging out of iTunes and logging back in. I freaking love the song, both versions. It'll be interesting to see how it does. If you ask me, it's a hit. That last note just blows my mind. I think the WBT part is accurate. I love the M.I.N.E. bit in the remix version. Brilliant. Have a great day, everyone.

Change of heart (41,170) by Xavier Peoples from United States I read the lyrics to "You're Mine" and I totally love it now. I didn't like "Touch My Body" the first time I heard it either and now it's one of my favorites. My mother was right about it growing on me. (Wednesday 12 February 2014; 17:15)

Mimi L. from Bangladesh (41,169) by Carlos Jaramillo from USA I feel you, girl and appreciate your opinion. I actually appreciate your delivery. Now, to clarify, I never hoped for similar "music" as the 90's. I specifically referenced her singing style. My reference to TAOLG was that she "sang" in that song. Not that it was a good song or a "chart topper". However, she was all-over-the-place vocally, in a good way. She has this need to sing very "urban" now. Thats where my "staccato" comment comes in. The fluidity is gone. It doesn't matter what the beat is, or what "time" we live in. If she still "sang" the song, like only she can (even still with whatever damage her voice has endured), she could add any kind of music, artist, vibe, instrument or collabo that she wants. It's not the music. Look at Adele, or many very current artists that still "sing" and are chart toppers, using ballads or slower, mid-tempo songs. If she was still doing amazing "vocal work", like I'm certain she can still do, our impression would be different. I think she "blands" her songs out now so that she can sing them live without everyone bashing the shit out of her, rather than dubbing, editing and pasting together a masterpiece like onlyshe can deliver. I think if we want Mariah to hit a number 1, she needs to relinquish all her artistic liberty to someone newer and fresher and then, with instruction, layer the vocals, again, [...]. If she wasnt clouded by the need to write her own stuff, I think we would have what we are all looking for. (Wednesday 12 February 2014; 17:05)

You're Mine (Eternal) (41,168) by Xavier Peoples from United States Usually when Mariah drops a new record I have it on repeat at least for a few days. Lol. But with this song I just can't do that. Especially the remix. I think it's a little dramatic when Trey talks about killing himself. This might be the first time that Mariah has had a lyric that I didn't like. I just feel like as long as Mariah has been in the game that she needs to come out with something fresh and new to help her remain relevant. Like when she released "Touch My Body", "Obsessed" or even "#Beautiful". Those songs were all exciting and a departure from previous hits. I just wish she would do something less predictable. Hopefully the song will grow on me, but for now I am back to "#Beautiful". (Wednesday 12 February 2014; 17:04)

Two "You're Mine"s (41,167) by ZachSingsMariah from USA It just occurred to me that she probably added on the "(Eternal)" bit to the title to avoid confusion with Lea Michele's new single (which is Top 20 on iTunes this week). Definitely a smart move as the last thing this awesome song needs is to be confused with another song. I am loving both "You're Mine"s (especially Mariah's, of course! ). (Wednesday 12 February 2014; 17:02)

You're mine (eternal) (41,165) by David from Spain Mariah has come back. Mariah is in the air again. (Wednesday 12 February 2014; 16:56)

Tweet (41,164) by Gilbert from USA Hi guys/gals, I don't tweet, I know you can use the hashtag in Facebook now. Anyone know if it's the same thing? (Wednesday 12 February 2014; 16:45)

Carlos (41,163) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter With this message I am in no way trying to offend you or pick a fight or blindly praise MC (if you have read any of my previous posts, you'll see I had quite a few arguments on the messageboard because I criticized something of Mariah so I am definitely not a blind lamb), however if you want Mariah to hit #1, you cannot, in this amazingly bad era of music business (where only catchy songs, no matter how meaningless they are) tops charts, you have to accept that Mariah cannot sing songs she sang in 1990 and 2005 and manage to top charts. She needs to keep changing styles and stay ahead if she wants to stay relevant and she has managed to do it beautifully. With TAOLG a lot of people criticized it because it did not have a solid catchy hook and not being radio friendly. This song has a great hook and is cutesy. I understand everyone is entitled to their own opinions, so yes no hard feelings. (Wednesday 12 February 2014; 16:33)

You're Mine (41,162) by B from USA I'm obsessed with the original version. It reminds me of Don't Forget About Us. I don't get the H.A.T.E.U. comparison. The hook/verse "summer days, summer nights when I felt you in my arms" is her best lyrics in years. I think the song has the potential to be MC's 19th #1 or at least a Top 10 on the Hot 100 and #1 on the R&B Songs chart. She delivered. The View, MTV, anf BET, and radio interviews/promo. Mariah is on fire! PS, so glad she decided to change the albums title. We don't even know if that was the title or not she never confirmed it. You're Mine is a perfect follow up to #Beautiful. (Wednesday 12 February 2014; 16:32)

iTunes (41,161) by Blake from USA You literally have to search for Mariah and the song title to find both versions! It's not even listed under her catalog. I don't get why IDJ can't buy a banner (at top of homepage) like Sony did for Beyonce. C'mon people, make this known to the music lovers. (Wednesday 12 February 2014; 16:31)

The new single (41,160) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter So my mom hates MC because I look upto her more than I do to my mom lol, so she's always like saying "this song isn't good, why does she need to scream everytime" and all those, but even she liked the song (yes I did force her to listen and she was unconsciously swaying her head), and at the end she was like this is much better than the last few songs she released. I am in love with the song, the hook like everyone is describing it as, is hypnotic and the best part for me, followed by the uplifting chorus. I am really hoping that this song tops charts, but with all the crappy songs that only go to #1 nowadays, I hope this gem by MC atleast cracks top 10 (no top 5 pretty please?) and if it hits #1, I will be overjoyed. I want people to know what real music is, and MC is the real deal. Ok lastly, I am not feeling the remix much, I thought it would be re-sung like WBT but hey who cares, the main song is A+mazing and from the reviews of fans I see most of them are giving both versions mainly positive reviews so yes I am super happy. Nail the promotions MC and take your much deserved 19th #1. I love you. (Wednesday 12 February 2014; 16:21)

This is a #1 hit (41,159) by nikki from usa Enough said. These two versions are going to soar. R&B, pop, dance, even a/c can play this song. Just in time for V-Day. Mariah's premiering the video on MTV tonight and you can ask MC a question via MTV tweets #AskMariah. (Wednesday 12 February 2014; 16:13)

Mariah (41,158) by Gilbert from USA Just speaking with my Ma about the moment we both met ?Mariah Carey? and I was talking with her about the new song and out of the blue I remembered I asked Mariah for a hug and the guard said "There is no hugging the superstar" and I remember I had a sad look and turned away and Mariah raised her hand and said "No, it's okay he can give me a hug!" Talk about a dream come true. I've been a fan almost 19 years now. I love the new song. I heard a clip of the remix. I think that might have to grow on me. (Wednesday 12 February 2014; 16:05)

I introduced the new Mariah song on the radio! (41,157) by Christy from USA So, my local radio station DJ knows that I am a huge Mariah fan and so he let me call in to the station to introduce "You're Mine (Eternal)" ft Trey Songz. He actually said he thought about me when he got the news that they were getting the song in so he asked me on twitter if I would introduce it. It was so much fun and he seemed really excited about the song. (Wednesday 12 February 2014; 16:00)

6.8 out of 10 (41,156) by Carlos Jaramillo from USA Maybe it's because I'm old (34) and I've been listening to Mariah from jump, when her singing was not as staccato. When every note was wonderfully and exaggeratedly over extended and ended in an unrepeatable majesty of melisma. Well, to me that is Mariah Carey. My point is, this song is great, it's just missing "something". It's missing the "Mariah" effect. Maybe the layering of vocals that usually accompanies Mariah's masterpieces? She sounds like she's talk-preach-story telling-singing. I miss the roller coster ride her vocals used to take you on. I mean, I even felt that ride on TAOLG. I don't know why this song has an element of "bland". Regardless, it's Mariah. I bought both versions and have the original on repeat (17th time so far). Mark my words, not a #1 but, I'm so happy "the voice" is gifting us again. (Wednesday 12 February 2014; 15:54)

Original and remix (41,155) by Edward from USA I have heard both versions of "You're Mine (Eternal)" and I like them a lot. I can't shake the hook off my mind. it is some sort of an ethereal hypnotic experience that won't leave my head. Knowing that the album version is longer, I can't wait to hear it. I'm waiting for Amazon to release it, since I don't like dealing with iTunes. I have the feeling that the remix is going to be played the most on radio. Now I have my very own MC EP: 1. Triumphant Vintage Throwback 2. Almost Home 3. #Beautiful 4. The Art of Letting Go 6. You're Mine (Eternal) original and remix (Wednesday 12 February 2014; 15:47)

The album title will not be TAOLG (41,154) by Myles from CT, USA She said it on the radio this morning. It will be changed. (Wednesday 12 February 2014; 15:44)

I love it! (41,153) by Rashidi Rahim Rick from Malaysia I just listened to the studio version and I love it every second. But I do feel that certain melody of that song is just rehashed of Heartbreaker and Your Girl. I want this song to be on top of the charts. Mariah needs to promote it just like how she promoted We Belong Together. (Wednesday 12 February 2014; 15:31)

Buying from iTunes (41,152) by Licia from USA Is anyone else having issues buying form iTunes? When I try to buy the song it says it's not available in the US. I know that's not true because I see other people on Twitter form the US bragging about how they bought both songs. I tried my iPad, my iPod, and now I'm going to iTunes from my laptop and I'm still not able to buy it. (Wednesday 12 February 2014; 15:22)

Outstanding follow-up to We Belong Together and H.A.T.E.U. (41,151) by Loris from Italy Her catalogue just needed this incredible gem. Eternal.? (Wednesday 12 February 2014; 14:36)

You're Mine (Eternal) remix (41,150) by Eternal from Italy Mariah's official channel on Youtube has posted the audio of both the original and remix. You're Mine has a very catchy hook, even the normal verses are pretty good. The remix featuring Trey sounds more urban and current, the original reminds me a lot of HATE U, an R&B slow burner. Frankly after repeat listens, I don't think it's chart topping material, not because it isn't good, but because this isn't the kind of music that dominates the chart now. It's like Underneath The Stars, a lamb favorite but not really a chart topper. I really hope I'm wrong and people pick it up like cotton candy, but this is, IMO, another beautiful album track like TAOLG. Still a lot better than current pop standards of course. I'm gonna get a lot of "dislikes" for this, I know. Not hating on Mariah or the new song, but this seems like a wannabe of We Belong Together, only thing is it's 2014. Good that she's going back to her roots and doing the kind of music she (and us) love, but after 5 years off, I expected her new music to be more fresh. That's all. (Wednesday 12 February 2014; 14:32)

Matthew (41,149) by Licia from USA She said on the interview this morning that the album version is longer. The one we are hearing is the radio edit. Don't worry, it's longer. (Wednesday 12 February 2014; 14:29)

Thoughts on single (41,148) by Matthew from USA It's definitely a winner. She slays it at the end. It's like an updated version of H.A.T.E.U. The only thing I'm not sure about is the length. I felt like #Beautiful could have gone on a little longer than it did. If you felt that way too, then I'm not sure how you all will feel about this. It's basically chorus, verse 1, chorus, climax. I feel like there should be more. But I guess I'm going to have to get used to this streamlined Mariah. In conclusion, it's very good but I feel like #Beautiful and You're Mine are appetizers. I really hope there's a hearty main course in the works. (Wednesday 12 February 2014; 13:58)

You're Mine (41,147) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Ok, so I couldn't wait any longer. I heard the original and remix version. I loved the original version. Smooth, sweet, powerful and pow. The remix was alright, not bad though. What matters is that the original was excellent. Mariah is back. (Wednesday 12 February 2014; 12:37)
