Infinity (102,173) by Matty from Vancouver Canada

This is so random. I've had infinity in my head all week. "It's more than and made up - Dreaaam." I love the beat and orchestra, it's the weak lyrics that kill me. The beat and and orchestra deserve better lyrics. But I low key love this song. Did it deserve to be the closing song of #1 to Infinity album? No. But is it a nice stand alone moment (like Triumphant)? Yes.

It's A Wrap (102,172) by Malcolm from Asia

I hope Mariah will do something about this. I observed that it's been a trend for old songs reappearing again thanks to TikTok. If she'll send this to Radio (I don't know how complicated it would be now), revamped it as a 2022 single with a new cover art and make a music video for it, she can score at least another top 40 hit ala Lady Gaga's Bloody Mary.

I hope Mariah will eventually maintain whatever weight she likes as long as she is healthy. You know these days I know something's big is coming when she is losing some weight (e.g. #Beautiful era, Caution era, Apple Christmas Special and the most recent one, CBS Christmas Special), it's been a clue for me for quite sometime.

Infinity (102,170) by Edward from USA

You should listen to it and then "Why You Mad". It will blow your mind. Literally.

Infinity (102,169) by Bobby A from United States

Infinity is my favorite song right now. I have been listening to it on repeat all week. Maybe Bill will listen with me. By the way, where is Bill?

I have heard from some older people that when you get to be a certain age you just stop caring much about certain things. Mariah is not the only woman over 50 who's weight fluctuates, but I don't think it has to do with anything in particular. I know many people in their 60's who are in very good shape and who are dealing with a lot of ailments, but they're disciplined and serious about their health. Mariah, unlike most people, has an arsenal of resources at her disposal to offset any side effects from medications, she probably has a personal chef who can cook anything healthy for her, and also has access to workout privately with a personal trainer too. I think Mariah gets in shape when she wants to get in shape, period. I don't think she's a damsel in distress waiting for the next treadmill to be available so that she can get on ultrasonic high heels with a splash in hand just in case she needs hydration.

Since she is an American woman over 50 years old who also takes medications with well-known complications, the dynamics of her body weight are not interesting from my point of view.

It's a Wrap live (102,166) by Bobby A from United States

Yes. This was the best live performance during this era. The second best live performance was H.A.T.E.U. on the David Letterman Show. MC was so nervous during her performance. You can hear her unable to reach the note at the end of the bridge when she sings "I can't wait to hate you." However, she executed the whistle notes following with ease. I have both of them recorded on CD.

It's a Wrap live (102,165) by enwar00 from usa

Remember when Mariah performed It's a Wrap live on the George Lopez Tonight show? Rewatching it now, Mariah killed it. She was still on fire in 2009 and 2010. I remember being blown away during the Angels Advocate show, thinking she sounded better than during the Adventures of Mimi tour. And of course MCIIY came later that year, which I love the vocals on as well as the Christmas special she did while pregnant. Maybe it is the booze.

I struggle with weight. I can't imagine what it's like to be in the public eye with paparazzi outside your building. But why does it seem MCs weight goes up and down so much and so quickly. Maybe this is a bad angle. But I swear it reminds me of the parody Debra Wilson and MadTV did with the "I'm Not Insane" where she sings the line as MC, "Although my weight, does fluctuate." Any thoughts on this phenomenon where MC goes from a size 6 to a size 16 in a matter of two months?

Memoirs (102,160) by Bobby A from United States

We should start a Twitter campaign for MC to release Angels Advocate and the Jumpsmokers remixes on vinyl and CD. I suggest a 4LP vinyl and 2 CD set titled: Lambs Most Requested: Angels Advocate.

Memoirs (102,159) by Bobby A from United States

Now we just need a hot video to increase streams. This is the start of a new era unofficially. I hope MC is working on an album for the Fall. She deserves one more hit album.

Mariah, if you or anyone on your team is reading this board, please release Angels Advocate album this week. This would be the best time given It's A Wraps popularity.

Memoirs (102,157) by "MariahHater" from Hell

Seems like the IAW made Memoirs somewhat exquisite. I listened to it and I must say, that this album is meant to be heard properly. Mariah if you are on this board, you better do something than a TikTok video.

I really hope that the HATEU remix will blow up.

Memoirs (102,156) by Mariahsbaby from usa

I'm so happy for Mariah and all the lambs in the land with taste and who actually love the album. It's currently her most streamed album on Spotify. [It's a wrap] is also Mariah most streamed song and it is the biggest gainer on Spotify Viral Songs USA at #98.

Her music is timeless, it deserves so much more. Super shoutout to her last few albums plus Charmbracelet. So many hidden gems and so many missed opportunities.

Memoirs is underrated (102,155) by Bobby A from United States

Hopefully all of the hype with the It's A Wrap TikTok challenge will spark some creativity in MC to produce some great music this year.

Memoirs is underrated (102,154) by Libra Lamb from USA

Memoirs is possibly Mariah's most underrated album. So deep, so fun and it does what she set out to do. It is a mood. Love love love it.

If you could... (102,153) by Libra Lamb from USA

I would squeeze an album between Daydream and Butterfly, there was so much creativity and her voice was amazing and her spirit strong after her divorce. I imagine the lyrics would be some of her best following Butterfly, and the production unmatched. Also, the remixes would be pure fire, as usual. Title of the album: Enchanted. All original break up and love songs, a fun dance or club track or two. #1 debut album and lead single. I don't know if I believe there weren't any leftover tracks after Butterfly, I guess she was curating her All That Glitters album then too and I know the Glitter soundtrack is one of my faves in her discography. I personally think it's better that she recorded the entire soundtrack without giving half of the tracks to other artists. That's what makes it signature Mariah and special.

If you could... (102,152) by Billy from Greece

I would so love a 1998 album. I loved what was happening in music in general those years. And Mariah's new 1998 output through #1's (bonus tracks, remixes etc) is some of my favourite work of hers.

Spinning 10s music (102,151) by "MariahHater" from Hell

Unforgettable. An unpopular opinion. This track with Mariah's vocals is haunting. Wish she did more features likes this. Not the lame Can't Say No.

If you could... (102,150) by Matty from Vancouver Canada

An album between Emancipation and E=MC2 for sure. There was so much creativity and nuance in that era. I want more 2004-2008 Mariah.

If you could... (102,149) by Dennis from Miami, FL

I agree that Music Box/Merry Christmas era voice was the best. I for one don't like her Daydream album and tour voice as much as I like her 1994 and 1997 voice. For me a studio album in 1998 would have been perfect, much better than #1's.
