Disc two (103,332) by Stacey from USA

I'd argue MB 30th is better than what she did for Butterfly 25th release. I thought Butterfly was her most personal release and what we got wasn't a whole lot. Yes, we got digital EPs of all her remixes from that era. But most of us had already heard of them. I'm talking new, unreleased stuff. Thoughts?

Re-recording Music Box 30 (103,331) by Stacey from USA

Hardly, lol. I was more like Dorothy. At least that's how I sound when I'm sick with a cold.

Disc two (103,330) by Bobby A from United States

MC just tweeted the disc one tracklisting. You were right about EFA, Bill. Music Box will now get a proper ending for U.S. fans. I will be finding out tomorrow from Grimey's Record store in Nashville if the 3CD will be released to retailers Friday. I am just hoping it has been kept in warehouses all summer.

Music Box 30th Anniversary (103,329) by Edward from USA

Hard copy but also digital. So, most likely it will be on all the streaming platforms.

It definitely sounds like the original is a Civilles and Cole production. She has been working in that vault all summer.

Sorry, CD3? So it's only on hardcopy?

Music Box 30th anniversary revealed (103,325) by Will from England

I would've thought it's because she's released all that she wants to release from those eras for Rarities and the MC30, and maybe saving some for Rarities Part 2 that she talked about? One can hope.

I think it will be the same as the rarities and Tokyo Dome, it will be both on physical CD and streaming.

Since it's so close to the release date, here is a snippet DJ Terry Hunter played in July at a Chicago House Music Festival in July.

Music Box 30th Anniversary (103,318) by Andrew from the UK

I must admit I don't really understand what is being released and how? Is Proctor's Theatre being released as an audio? If so, is it going on Spotify or do you have to actually purchase a hard copy? It's all pretty confusing.

Disc two (103,317) by Bobby A from United States

Go check out MC's Twitter page. She just released the tracklisting for disc 2. There is another new song called Workin Hard along with an extended version of All I Live For and an IBTAY remix. Disc 2 is 15 tracks. This MB 30th is better than The Rarities.

Music Box 30th anniversary revealed (103,316) by Terna from Nigeria

She's going to pay that album absolute dust. Sorry Stacey, but in Mariah's bubble, "Daydream" only comprises of 1 song - "Always be My Fantasy with O.D.B.".

Don't tell me you were a mini version of Blanche by 20, Stacey.

Clivillés and Cole (103,314) by Jamie from UK

I'm getting really excited now for Saturday. I've been playing Music Box non stop, but that's nothing new for me.

I was just thinking and wishing if there were any unreleased songs that collaborated with Clivillés and Cole. I always used to love this side of her in the early days. It was such a shame that David Cole passed so young into Mariah's career as I feel that both David and Robert had a good bond with her.

I love how much Mariah holds Music Box close to her heart and the memories. If only all parties involved could forget the past and get together just one more time. Come on Mariah call Walter, Kelly, Shanrae (if you can find her) and Melonie and let's make some magic.

My Prayer - The Platters (103,313) by Bobby A from United States

Great post Pedro. My Prayer was a #1 hit on Billboard Top 100 and R&B charts in 1956. Glenn Miller and The Ink Spots covered it too. I did some investigated work myself and found one fan on PulseMariah said that it makes sense that My Prayer has not been registered in MC's name since she is not the writer for My Prayer. And it makes sense for 2.50 song length. It is very typical for songs in the 50s and 60s to be less than 3 minutes. I am really excited now.

My Prayer - The Platters (103,312) by Edward from USA

I just listened. I can definitely see Mariah singing it. It has its vocal moments. I could even imagine places where some whistles would be placed by Mariah..

I just listened to it, I can just imagine MC singing that with the Price sisters and Melonie doing the background.

My Prayer - The Platters (103,310) by Pedro from Brazil

Some fans are speculating that Mariah's "My Prayer" is actually a cover of a song of the same name by the group "The Platters", because in the promotional video, Mariah's track lasts 2:50, which is similar to this one. What do you think, guys?

My father couldn't understand why I wanted to watch the Golden Girls as teenager. He found out why when I was 20. Lol.
