Memoirs vs Charmbracelet debate (40,893) by lil star from untied states (Both albums are criticized for there use of whisper register.) I for one prefer Memoirs to Charmbracelet. I find it to be more cohesive and it contains some of Mariahs sharpest lyrics showing her fun side while also showing adult contemp moment. But I do think Charmbracelet is superior in its vocal moments and AC ("Through the Rain", "I Only Wanted", "Clown", "Subtle Invitation", "Bringin' on the Heartbreak")songs, but it lacks in its hip hop r&b moments, sounding out dated even at the time ( "You Had Your Chance", "Lullaby", "Irresistible", "Yours") . I think it would be perfect if she had mashed the two together making the perfect MC cd, changing some songs to more full voice and removing the auto tune from the Memoirs songs . I mean a CD with "Subtle Invitation" and "It's a Wrap" a 1, 2 punch to Eminem of "Obsessed"and "Clown" Playlist 1. "Betcha Gon' Know (The Prologue)" (no auto tune) 2. "Obsessed"(no auto tune) 3. "You Got Me" (featuring Jay-Z & Freeway) 4. "H.A.T.E.U." 5. "Inseparable(FT Trey Songz)" 6. "Clown" 7. "Standing O" (no auto tune) 8. "More Than Just Friends" (fuller voice) 9. "Ribbon" 10. "It's a Wrap" 11. "Subtle Invitation" 12. "Angels Cry" 13. "Through the Rain" 14. "Bringin' on the Heartbreak" 15. "Languishing (The Interlude)" 16. "My Saving Grace" Thoughts?

Sunshine Divolamb (40,892) by Isaac from USA "Obsessed" is her worst single. The song was auto tuned and sounded bad. Mariah's voice is too beautiful for that. Also, you play it because you're a female. I was referring to guys. But even if I was a female, I still wouldn't play it. (Friday 31 January 2014; 7:31)

Taco Bell (40,891) by clueey23 from USA Standing in line at Taco Bell and "Open Arms" comes on. I think this is fantastic because normally I only hear the original version of this song in public. (Friday 31 January 2014; 4:37)

Mimi L darling (40,890) by Lamb_O_Chop from Australia My dearest darling. I seriously doubt the fabulous B was referring to me, because for one we've never had an exchange and secondly I don't post "ignorance or bleakness". Just thought I'd chime in. Carry on my dear.

You and I (40,889) by clueey23 from USA "You and I" is one of the most beautiful loves songs I've ever heard. "Talking Book" is my favorite Stevie Wonder album of that era. MC was amazing that night. I love the undubbed version so much! Please everyone listen to the undubbed version. I love the blending in the background in that performance. It kinda sounds like Stevie in the backgrounds. I can listen to this all day and night. And I agree, this is one of her best cover moments ever! (Friday 31 January 2014; 1:58)

Ready for sing my heart off along with Mimi (40,888) by Alejandro Cole from Colombia We are very close to the new single release date, and if you are a true lamb, be ready to sing your heart out, to play the song while you drive, to request it at your local radio station and off course to buy this new album that is a gift from our dear Mariah.

New single (40,887) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter We are getting closer to the release date! I can't wait to hear the new song. I can't understand from the title whether it's a slow ballad or a dance/club/party song. Either ways I just desperately want a new song (possibly some re-sung remixes, yes I am being greedy), a new music video (preferably a well thought out video with a good concept) and finally the main album. Since she already shot the video, I am hoping she releases it on the same day. MC I want you back on Number 1! (Thursday 30 January 2014; 22:04)

Ender (40,886) by Stephen from London, United Kingdom I've been saying that for years. Quite simply one of the best performances and vocals of her career. Her version of that song really touches me. (Thursday 30 January 2014; 22:02)

B (40,885) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter When you wrote "Mimi" did you mean Mariah or me? Because if you were referring to me, I think you are mistaken, because I think you mistook Lamb O Chops' reply for mine. Just wanted to clear it out. Now if you were really referring to Mariah, this message will just make me look stupid lol. (Thursday 30 January 2014; 21:59)

Get You Off my Mind (40,883) by B from USA Get You Off my Mind, if that is the title of the new single I like it! It could be a ballad, midtempo, or uptempo. She knows how to write a catchy, huge chorus and Get You Off my Mind has major potential. Mimi, what I was trying to say is MC pays attention to what her fans and critics say. After the Triumphant debacle she came back with #Beautiful, her best single (song) in years. MC knows how to play the induistry to her advantage. She's a pro. She was married to the CEO of Sony. Think postive, happy thoughts. No more bleak-ness or ignorance. (Thursday 30 January 2014; 20:25)

Avatar (40,881) by Jenny from South Africa Hi webmaster. I was trying to change my avatar but now for some reason when I click on My Info the avatar is just blank and each time I try to put a new pic I see it saying fake path. Do you know how I can fix it? If not it's okay. Thanks. (Thursday 30 January 2014; 19:57)

Rashidi Rahim (40,880) by Sunshine Divalamb from Germany This is what you are referring to: to help raise money for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital you can win a trip to New York where Mariah will give the winner and a loved one a private concert at her home on Valentine's Day.

Last night (40,879) by Myles from CT, USA I had a dream last night Mariah dropped two previews of her 2 new singles she was releasing to radio. One was a great pop song and the other a slower but amazing and moving cover. I wish I could remember the damn song! It was so magical and then I realized it was not real. (Thursday 30 January 2014; 19:36)

You and I (40,878) by Ender (602) from USA I wish Mariah would of included this song in one of her albums. Perfection! (Thursday 30 January 2014; 18:32)

Frustration waiting (40,877) by Me. I am Carly from USA I have been frustrated with the wait as most of you have, so I went back and was looking at all kinds of old albums songs ect.ect. And there is just no way to deny that this woman is magical, so I am certain the new album will be amazing. We get frustrated because we know what she can do and it is so hard to wait for it. Mariah always surprises us and she will again. (Thursday 30 January 2014; 17:25)

Webmaster (40,876) by Licia from USA Can I borrow the delete button for one day? Please? I promise I won't be a douche bag with it. All of the new features are great by the way. (Thursday 30 January 2014; 17:09)

Webmaster (40,873) (40,875) by Webmaster Eric from the Netherlands There is a delete button, but it is only visible for me. That way I can delete all messages with spam or messages which are very mean towards Mariah (or don't follow my rules). (Thursday 30 January 2014; 16:27)

Valentine's Day (40,874) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Rashidi, I think what you heard is the offer Mariah gave for charity. She urged fans to donate to a particular charity event and a winner will be chosen, who'll be flown to New York to Mariah's apartment (along with a loved one) and she'll sing some of their (the fan's) favorite songs one to one as a thank you for helping her raise money. Which is quite a sweet and generous thing for her to do. Other than that, the only other thing set for 14th February is her single release. (Thursday 30 January 2014; 16:11)

Webmaster (40,873) by Stephen from London, United Kingdom Thank you for your continued devotion to this site. The like/dislike feature is a great addition. Perhaps going forward you could work on a delete button for certain posts from certain people? That's a joke lol, or is it? (Thursday 30 January 2014; 16:02)

Valentine's Unplugged (40,872) by Rashidi Rahim Rick from Malaysia I believe I read somewhere that Mariah would do a special concert for fans somewhere during the Valentine's Day. My suggestion is that Mariah could do another unplugged concert, maybe around 7 or 8 songs in the setlist, and even perform the new single. Who knows, maybe Mariah could sing When I Saw You or even All I've Ever Wanted on that concert. (Thursday 30 January 2014; 14:58)

Random epiphany (40,871) by RadChad from United States I'm listening to my MP3 player at work at the moment and the live version of Marvin Gaye's "Distant Lover" comes on and I think wow how great would it be for Mariah Carey to cover this song. I would love to hear her dig deep and sang with this much soul. Then to confirm this epiphany "Butterfly"comes on right aftwards. I hope this was a sign. Just a random wish.

The Tonight Show performance of WBT (40,870) by Eternal from Italy This video disappeared for a few years due to copyright reasons but it's back at last! I thought her voice sounded really full and powerful here and it was just one of the many times in 2005 when her vocals were really on point. Her performance on BET Blueprint will always be the best for me though. (Thursday 30 January 2014; 10:27)

Isaac / RJJ (40,869) by Licia from USA Isaac, half the people on this message board probably have Twitter accounts and they probably already know what I know. I didn't spoil anything, that DJ did. RJJ, you are definitely a genius. Although Drake is tamer than most rappers, he can be just explicit. Depends on the type of song and what direction they would go in. I agree that he should not have leaked the title, but I would be more upset if he had leaked the song. That's more of an issue than leaking the title in my eyes. (Thursday 30 January 2014; 10:01)

Isaac Ortez / Obsessed Mariah's worst song? (40,868) by Sunshine Divalamb from Germany I'm not sure if I understand you correctly "Obsessed" is one of her worst songs? It debuted at number 11 and was Mariah highest debut in over a decade. This song was in the top 40 for 20 weeks, longer than her number 1 smash hit "We Belong Together". It may be your personal opinion that it's her worst song but it's not a fact. And fyi, I love "Obsessed" and play it regularly, so I couldn't disagree more with what you are saying.
