About Giovanni from USA: Been a fan since 2005.

Ribbon B (65,470) by Giovanni from USA I never said Pharell was this great songwriter, but the man knows how to come out with a good beat. "Say something" is pretty decent. I imagine Mariah coming out with a song like "Happy" or "Time of your life". I am also hoping for something big. R. Kelly may be irrelevant but he can sing. I can't think of any male singers who can really sing much less riff and run. If there are some I don't know them. It's been long over due for a collaboration. But at this point I'd say it's probably never going to happen. Mariah needs a nice ballad with John Legend, Sam Smith or Brian McKnight. Brian is also irrelevant but at least he could give us a classic Mariah song like "One sweet day" or "Thank God I found you". I want an album that's memorable and epic. And hopefully Mariah serves us with a good album title and cover this time. (Saturday 20 August 2016; 19:24)

Song of the decade (65,416) by Giovanni from USA I don't know about anyone else but I would love for Mariah to have another song of the decade. I wish she'd work with Pharell for an up tempo jam and Diane Warren for a ballad. If Mariah would do a song like "One sweet day" or "Fly like a bird" I would be super happy.

Mariah on Live with Kelly (65,415) by Giovanni from USA In my opinion Mariah has looked her best this year on "Live with Kelly". Her make up was natural, her hair was nice and her body looked amazing. Those legs were looking great. I also enjoyed the interview. Kelly is always so welcoming and sweet to Mariah. (Friday 19 August 2016; 4:42)

The Emancipation Of Mimi era (65,414) by Giovanni from USA Is also my favorite era. She was humble, confident and untouchable that year. Her looks, voice and ensembles were on point. I honestly believe she can have another great era like 2005 if the music is good followed by a ton of promotion. However I'm still bothered all these years later that Mariah did not win album of the year. She was robbed. (Friday 19 August 2016; 4:32)

Re: May from Denmark (65,356) (65,367) by Giovanni from USA Exactly, the first and third ensembles would look great on her. I also still love that red dress she wore the night she had dinner with Jermaine. (Wednesday 17 August 2016; 0:07)

Emotions (65,366) by Giovanni from USA Is Mariah's hardest song to sing in my opinion. I try and keep up but end up winded and exhausted. I just can't do it lol. Not even Mariah herself can sing "Emotions" anymore and I can't blame her. It's vocal suicide. The whole "Emotions" album is an impressive piece of work. She was really ahead of herself as a songwriter and producer. I think with her current voice she could sing "The wind" and wow us all. (Tuesday 16 August 2016; 23:57)

Me I am Mariah (65,323) by Giovanni from USA It's good to see MIAM getting love. I appreciate it for what it is but I still think Mariah could have put better songs on it. Especially with "You're mine", "Money" and "One more try". It would be so nice if she let us hear all those unreleased songs she recorded since 2012. I hope her next album is a masterpiece. (Tuesday 16 August 2016; 2:48)

May from Denmark (65,322) by Giovanni from USA I completely disagree, I think you were overreacting calling them "awful". They're certainly much better than what Mariah has been serving us since 2014. All those ensembles with the exception of the last is age appropriate for Mariah. I don't know if you know Mariah's age dahling but she is 46. She's damn near pushing 50. I could definitely see her wearing the first three. The first one is very nice in my opinion, than the third. Mariah would look so classy in the third one. But no, she continues wearing Stella's hideous wear as well as exposing the twins on a daily basis. I hope she makes some good music though.

Re: Me I Am Mariah (65,284) (65,285) by Giovanni from USA I meant for her album. (Monday 15 August 2016; 13:01)

Re: Faded (65,277) (65,282) by Giovanni from USA Nope, hate it sorry. I enjoy "Make it look good", "Dedicated" and "The art of letting go" much more. (Monday 15 August 2016; 10:05)

Re: Me I Am Mariah (65,256) (65,273) by Giovanni from USA You're always negative so it's no surprise you'd have nothing but negative things to say about one particular song from Mariah. (Monday 15 August 2016; 0:12)

B from USA (65,268) by Giovanni from USA I find it funny how you changed your feelings for "The art of letting go" when before you also stated that it was one of Mariah's personal songs lol. Never before did you ever speak of it in a negative way. Now it's "wordy" and disjointed"? What happened B? (Sunday 14 August 2016; 22:32)

Re: Me I Am Mariah (65,238) (65,267) by Giovanni from USA Not every one of Mariah's songs has a melody now do they? "Mine again" is one of my all time favorite songs and it does not have a melody. "The art of letting go" is one of Mariah's most personal songs. And when was the last time we heard her belt that fierce? "Joyride"? "Angels cry" was probably the closest but not as strong as "The art of letting go". "Supernatural" is too cutesy and "Money" is just a mess. I fall asleep during "Money" and "One more try". "Heavenly" saves the album in my opinion. Hopefully Mariah's next album is better with better collaborations. Say Miguel, John Legend, Sam Smith, R. Kelly, The weekend or an older legendary artist like Stevie Wonder or Tony Bennett. I would love a jazz number with him. That would be classic Mariah. (Sunday 14 August 2016; 22:28)

Mariah dream (65,265) by Giovanni from USA I just thought I would share the dream I had about Mariah last night. I have never had a dream about her or any other singer or celebrity, but last night I did. Mariah was in my room beside my bed singing "Luluby" [sic] from the Charmbracelet album lol. Out of all the songs she sang "Luluby". She looked very pretty and was smiling the whole time. She had on a black blouse and a pair of jeans and her hair was tied to the side. The funniest part was after she was finished my friend appeared and she left with him and closed my door lol. This was too funny but in a way a dream come to true. I met Mariah but in a dream. This one was extra special too because usually in my dreams I don't hear anything. So now I have to go and play "Luluby". (Sunday 14 August 2016; 22:13)

Re: 2013 (65,233) (65,237) by Giovanni from USA To me Stella is Mariah's make up and fashion stylist. Everything you stated makes sense so I pretty much see why Mariah went from fabulous to disastrous. But what I don't understand is how Mariah would think she looks better now than how she did on "American Idol". (Sunday 14 August 2016; 3:01)

Re: Me I Am Mariah (65,225) (65,236) by Giovanni from USA Oh no you did not just diss my song RibbonB, lol. Just kidding. I love "The art of letting go". The music, lyrics and Mariah's belting at the end is too good. I highly dislike "Supernatural" because I don't connect with the song. It's too much of a luluby song for me. And "Money" isn't really much of a song in my opinion. There are hardly any lyrics for Mariah. She mainly just repeats the same thing over and over it becomes a snoozefest. I feel this could have easily been replaced. All the songs Mariah recorded yet she goes with "Money"? Also Hozier's album hasn't came yet. But when it does I'll be sure to get back to you. (Sunday 14 August 2016; 2:55)

Me I Am Mariah (65,223) by Giovanni from USA If you could replace any songs from Me I Am Mariah which ones would they be? I pick "Supernatural", "Money" and "One more try". I'm still pissed "The art of letting go" was left out. (Saturday 13 August 2016; 16:23)

2013 (65,222) by Giovanni from USA In my opinion this is the year Mariah has looked her best. Her hair, make up, body and ensembles was all on point. She looked classy, glamorous and like the superstar she is. But after 2013 something happened. She went from looking fabulous to looking a mess. I and others have been saying for awhile now that Mariah is in desperate need of a stylist. She just does not dress well at all. All those Stella outfits are hideous. And what's up with showing her bra all the time? It makes her look cheap. (Saturday 13 August 2016; 16:12)

Re: Mariah and Pavarotti (65,104) (65,113) by Giovanni from USA This is so ironic that someone would post about Mariah and Pavarotti because I had just recently watched their performance of "Hero". I had never seen it before. Mariah looked stunning and in my opinion out shined Luciano. Even though Luciano was louder and powerful Mariah held her own. However in the "We are the world" performance I was disappointed because she was on mute the whole entire performance. I would have been killing those singers with my high notes and whistle notes. Especially Laura Pausini. I can't stand her [censored]. Mariah needed to step up. (Tuesday 9 August 2016; 20:54)

Empire (65,083) by Giovanni from USA I'm honestly excited for Mariah being on "Empire". I hope we like what we see. I want to be excited for new music but since "Infinity" I'm not going to get my hopes up. Mariah is 46 years old, if she wants to be successful again she needs to be making the best music she possibly can. She needs another "The Emancipation Of Mimi". "The art of letting go" could have been an even better era than Emancipation, but everything just seemed to go wrong for her. And I still would like to know why she changed the track list. I think with the right music, team and promotion Mariah will be successful again. (Tuesday 9 August 2016; 0:02)

Nicki Minaj (65,082) by Giovanni from USA If you ask me Nicki Minaj should have never been on "American Idol" in the first place. She had absolutely no business being a judge because she isn't a singer. She is ghetto, obnoxious, disrespectful and no longer relevant. What little career she had is over. Mariah wasn't perfect but Nicki was just as bad if not worse. Didn't she threaten to shoot Mariah? Honestly Mariah can say whatever she wants. (Monday 8 August 2016; 23:45)

Re: Hozier / Brittany Howard (64,940) (65,031) by Giovanni from USA Sorry for the late reply but yeah. Bobby is one of my favorite male singers along with Marvin Gaye. "How I miss you baby" is the one song I enjoy the most. I also enjoy "Love has finally come at last" with Patti Labelle. However I wished Patti had sung more deeper and in full voice because she sounds awful. Mariah is definitely a music genius for sampling Bobby in "We belong together". We need more genius lines like that instead of "corny like fritos" lol. Well at least it gives me a good laugh. Anita Baker feeds my soul with her beautiful voice. "You bring me joy" and "Lead me into love" are just too good. I'll be letting you know which songs I like from Hozier's album as soon as I listen to them. (Sunday 7 August 2016; 5:56)

Mariah's Daydream voice (64,936) by Giovanni from USA I don't understand how a lot of people say that Mariah sounded her best during the "Daydream" era. I have to disagree, if anything her voice sounded weaker. If you compare "Daydream" Mariah to 1990 Mariah you can clearly tell Mariah was much more stronger and powerful in her debut. She still was going strong up until 1994 then kind of declined in 1995 and 1996. 1997 was much better in my opinion due to her sexy tone and rasp. She regained power and seemed to shine again in her upper belts ala "Divas live". In all honesty I wished Mariah's voice would have stayed the way it was in 1997. Her make up and ensembles were on point during that era. I don't think I have ever seen a more gorgeous woman. Evidently I've been listening to "The beautiful ones". Mariah ate Prince up and easily sang it better. (Wednesday 3 August 2016; 23:01)

Re: Random (64,919) (64,935) by Giovanni from USA You crack me up Mimi L. I would have to say no to the dress. It isn't age appropriate nor compliments her new body. I don't even think. Jennifer Lopez would look good in that thing lol. (Wednesday 3 August 2016; 22:42)

Re: I feel it (64,911) (64,933) by Giovanni from USA Agreed, I read that the reason why it never made the album was because the label didn't want to pay for sample rate the copyright's owner wanted lol. So lame huh. I also found out "I feel it" was the second song Mariah recorded for "The Emancipation Of Mimi". If I could pick one song to replace "I feel it" with it would be "To the floor". Never cared for that track. (Wednesday 3 August 2016; 22:38)
