Getting ready for the next single (38,331) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway I am happy that #Beautiful reached #15 on Billboard, if that was its peak. I think it's a decent hit, and remember, ILT only whent to #16. I'm a bit dissapointed though that the single didn't do that well in Europe. But hey, I actually was afraid that Mariah was forgotten when Triumphant and Almost Home didn't to well at all on the charts. I think it's about time to release a second single now, I'm positive it will benefit from the momumentum of #Beautiful. And though many here want her not to release a ballad, I actually think that will be ok. Mariah is known for her ballads. (Saturday 22 June 2013; 18:00)

Mariah to perform at BET Awards '13 (38,330) by Anonymous from Sunday, June 30th at 8pm ET/PT. Mariah knows she needs a stellar performance and she'll deliver. (Saturday 22 June 2013; 1:37)

TAOLG / Heartbreaker / If You Should Ever Be Lonely (38,329) by Randy from USA I still feel like there is another single that is going to be released before the album and it's going to be a killer. She's just trying to gain interest and reintroduce her iconic brand. As for the remix you all keep touting, I hated it in 99 and I hate it now. Mariah's best mash-up to this day: My All/Stay Awhile. Whenever I'm in my car and that comes up on several of my iPod shuffle playlists, I blast it and sing it to the top of my lungs, and I don't care if I'm in the hood, aka the West End of Atlanta or the ritzy neighborhoods, Alpharetta or Vinings. My All/Stay Awhile is undeniable. (Saturday 22 June 2013; 0:41)

BET (38,328) by nikki from usa Mariah's upping the promo machine. I've seen several commercials that MC will be performing with Miguel at the BET awards on the 30th. But, she'll be promoting The Art Of Letting Go on The View first. Exciting. Haters have been coming out in droves lately about her white bikini pics, really venomous things. I burst out laughing when they tried to claim her black bikini pics were photoshopped. Yeah, when I'm at home shooting pics and uploading them on my twitter account - I always use photoshop first. Lol. (Friday 21 June 2013; 19:10)

Brad / #Beautiful on life support (38,327) by Edward from USA Brad, agree with you. #Beautiful is on life support now and needs a boost in sales and airplay. In my opinion the remix shouldn't wait another week to be released, since the single is becoming stagnant on the chart. The View, BET, and Macy's performances are good and all, but all of them are happening about 10 days from today. I think Mariah might be leaving her record label once TAOLG has run its course.

If you should ever be lonely / Heartbreaker (38,326) by RadChad from United States I'm glad to see that I'm not the only one that's completely in love with this remix. I didn't even know it existed until (of course) the remix album came out, but I believe it took for it to hit me at the right time (couple years later I believe) for me to notice it, and once it caught my attention, I was hooked. The emotional mid voice over the deep vocals, was pow. I think Heartbreaker as a whole had the best remixes, from dance to hip/hop R&B. I would chose the Love Hangover/ Heartbreaker remix over them all though, I need Mariah to do a full remake of that song like last decade. I hope she does the same with the #Beautiful remix(es), a total reinvention of song with new vocals and music. (Friday 21 June 2013; 17:59)

Re: Heartbreaker / If You Should Ever Be Lonely (38,325) by Joanna from Poland I absolutely love this remix. The vocal is amazing, especially from 8:35. I also love Anytime You Need A Friend C&C Club version, what she does with her vocals in this one shows that she is the best vocalist ever. (Friday 21 June 2013; 17:08)

Drop in #Beautiful airplay (38,324) by Brad from USA Hi lambs. I hope the remix of #Beautiful drops very soon, because I know in my airplay market (Hartford, CT) the song has rapidly dropped in spins. I am not sure what accounts for that drop (i.e. competition or lack of requests) but it seemed a week ago that the song was catching fire and then it stopped. Sort of odd. Anyhow, here's hoping for a rekindinling. Best wishes. (Friday 21 June 2013; 16:25)

E=MC2 (38,323) by Anonymous from She looked stunning on that cover as well. (Friday 21 June 2013; 14:03)

Edward (38,322) by Anonymous from I don't love or hate the album's title. My friend who's seen the post on my Facebook said really how memoirs of her. (Friday 21 June 2013; 13:31)

Mariah on the View (38,321) by Stephen from London, United Kingdom Mariah is confirmed to appear on The View next Friday. I think it's good that she's finally making a TV appearance. Hopefully, it's to promote #Beautiful. I think she should try to fit in an appearance on Ellen earlier that week. I'm still longing to hear a solo version of this song. That would be an awesome surprise. (Friday 21 June 2013; 11:54)

#Beautiful remix release date? (38,320) by Quaid Long from USA Does anyone know when we will hear this masterpiece? I'm hoping before the album is released, yes? (Friday 21 June 2013; 0:10)

Brandon (38,319) by Edward from USA Brandon, why don't you change it to "The Art Gallery of Mariah Carey"? It would be epic, lol. (Thursday 20 June 2013; 21:34)

Correction (38,318) by Anonymous from #15, not #1. (Thursday 20 June 2013; 21:01)

The Art Of... (38,317) by Anonymous from I think the title should be the The Art Of Mariah Carey. Or Mariah Carey's The Art Of. (Thursday 20 June 2013; 20:55)

#Beautiful (38,316) by Anonymous from Billboard R&B Songs: #2. Billboard Hot 100: #1. The remix will push the song to the No. 1 position on the R&B Songs chart and into the top 10 on the Hot 100. I'd say it's a sure thing/safe bet. Congratulations Mariah and Miguel the single has been certified Gold. (Thursday 20 June 2013; 20:50)

The Art of Letting Go (38,315) by Jono from USA I'm curious as to what your guys' thoughts are on the supposed new title for the album. I think it's a little wordy, but obviously the album title isn't going to affect me buying the album. I do hope though that she goes for a real stunner with the cover. IMO, her album covers after The Emancipation Of Mimi were kind of weak and amateur. TEOM had that "wow" factor that encompassed her effortless beauty while integrating the theme. If we're going off of this supposed title, I'd like to see an almost de-glammed shot of her. I'm not talking Precious style, but maybe something that looks timeless and doesn't have her overly stylized. Something very simple and to the point. Regardless, I'm so incredibly excited for this album based off of #Beautiful and what Mariah is bringing to the table. It seems as if she's finally let go trying to emulate TEOM sound. That was a different era, and as she has said many times now, it's the beginning of a new one. (Thursday 20 June 2013; 18:07)

enwar00/#Beautiful (38,314) by John from USA I agree enwar00, I've always loved Heartbreaker/If You Should Ever Be Lonely. In the 90s, she had the most epic dance remixes. That has always been one of my favs. On another note, it appears I may have spoken too soon. #Beautiful remains at #15 this week, but I think it fell a spot or two in airplay. If only she'd do some more public performances of this song. We just need a little more effort from her, and we'd have a top 10 hit on our hands. It's only in its 7th week on the chart, so I am fairly confident we can still get a top 10 out of this song. If not, It's Like That only made #16, but it still re-opened the door for her. We all know what happened afterwards. (Thursday 20 June 2013; 14:52)

Matt (38,313) by Hana from UK That is definitely not Mariah Carey. A lot of conflicting comments on that YouTube page, but it's a rare acapella of Christina Aguilera singing At Last dug out from God knows where. (Thursday 20 June 2013; 13:13)

George Michael (38,312) by Stephen from London, United Kingdom Seeing as people have brought up George Michael, I must say, rather than sample him, I'd love for Mariah to duet with him. A cover of Marvin Gaye and Tammi would make me very happy lol. (Thursday 20 June 2013; 11:46)

Re: enwar00 (38,311) by Billy from Greece I was also listening to "Heartbreaker / If You Should Ever Be Lonely" a couple of weeks ago. Awesome interpolation. All of the remixes during the "Rainbow" are a testament to Mariah's remixing brilliance. (Thursday 20 June 2013; 11:07)

#Beautiful (38,310) by Anonymous from I highly doubt the romance rumors. They were most likely taking a break, a swim in the blue grotto. Before the release of Charmbracelet, Mariah and the Universal execs took a swim in the grotto after listening to the material. As for the remix, I can't wait to hear it. MC is the queen of the remix. I highly doubt Miguel's team or Mariah's are going to give up on promoting this single until it at least peaks inside the top 10, most likely the top 5. It's the biggest hit of Miguel's career. I hope that they wrote at least one more song together. His style has clearly revived Mimi's. #Beautiful is written is the vein of Mariah's classics. The verse chorus verse chorus structure, minus the bridge. (Thursday 20 June 2013; 3:24)

Urban Islandz (38,309) by Will from England They clearly want to stir up some trouble here, it's noting but just some people taking those photos out of context and creating a false story. Very sad. (Thursday 20 June 2013; 0:52)

Heartbreaker / If You Should Ever Be Lonely (38,308) by enwar00 from usa JayAr made me think of this song again. I legit listened to it on repeat a few weeks ago, the Junior Vasquez club remix. Does anyone else love that remix? Lol. (Thursday 20 June 2013; 0:43)

JayAr (38,307) by enwar00 from usa That is so random, how did you even think of that? I actually don't like that song, but it would be an interesting remix, and if Mariah redid it, I probably would like it. Speaking of George Michael, I used to not be able to tell the difference when the beginning of Can't Let Go and his song One More Try would come on the radio. Similar intros, in my opinion, back then at least. (Thursday 20 June 2013; 0:39)
