Sorry guys. Bad fan. Impostor syndrome (105,514) by Tevin from USA
So the remix is a lot better than the original song. I hope Mariah and Ariana have a lot of success with this song. I don't mean to be negative but there's this part of me that hopes it cracks the top 10 or even top 5 on Billboard, but not reach number one. I just don't like the song or the message at all. Like I said Mariah added depth to the song that it was missing, and other than the bad mixing on the pre and first chorus everything songs great, uh, I don't know, I just feel like this song shouldn't be attached to the brilliant songs that make up the other 19. Call it single/song impostor syndrome, idk. Anyway on a positive note, I have been trying to stream it in the background to help. I do hope they both work on an original song together in the future and not just remakes.

Also, as a YouTuber said in his reaction of yes and, Mariah has started off belting in a song since 1996 lol, so I was happy and presently surprised that she was belting in full chest voice throughout the song and sounding great too.

It's been a long time coming (105,513) by Stacey from USA
Agreed. I like Yes, And? It definitely doesn't have the same magic as Vogue or Dreamlover. But I ain't mad at it. It's nice to see MC get the love and respect she deserves.

Yeah, I totally agree. The profanity is so unnecessary.

It's been a long time coming (105,511) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway
When was the last time Mariah was on top worldwide and it wasn't a Christmas song? Even here in Norway, Mariah is now #3 on top songs on iTunes. I had completely forgotten the feeling I experience when Mariah is represented on the charts. It's too early to hope for Mariah's name to be on offical charts around the world, but what a great feeling that would be. Nevertheless, congrats Mariah and Ariana.

Let's get it to number one (105,510) by Tameka walker from United states
Let's [stream], download and do what we got to do to get Mariah and [Ariana] to number one, let's get behind this as their fans, there would be nothing more exciting than to get Mariah her 20th number one. I would be so thrilled to see that happen for her.

MV snippet (105,509) by MusicfanJ from Germany
Yes, absolutely. Boring and not needed to use such words. I watched the lyric video, what a mess. Who wrote this? Boy put your lipstick on? I'm going to listen to "Nevertheless I'm in love with you". That's classy.

"Mariah sounds too loud on the remix" (105,508) by jaker20 from US
That's always been how she is on her remixes. Clearly they don't know Mariah's iconic remixes which are still some of the best.

Yes, and? (105,507) by Anonymous from United States
My first thought when I saw the news about this release. Will Mariah start counting this as her 20th #1 record even though it went to number one *before* she appeared on a remixed version of it?

The song itself is pretty unimpressive, but most pop music these days is. I'm also very skeptical of any writing credit awarded to Ariana Grande, Beyonce, Taylor Swift, etc these days - especially if a professional songwriter like Max Martin is involved. My suspicion is that the song is brought to them 90 percent completed by professional producers/songwriters, and they then change a few lyrics or notes and consider that "writing".

MV snippet (105,506) by Bill from the UK
With you on the profanity Stacey, absolutely no need for it. It's in so many songs these days. I'm still not completely over Mariah telling me to "get the [censored] out". In other news, here's my play count:
Selfish - 400+
Yes And? remix - 1

MV (105,505) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter
Yall so looks like a MV isn't ready. Kris replied to a fan saying he isn't aware of any MV made. Which if true makes me sad. I was hoping they had one to promote. If there isn't I don't think they'd make one now because either ways Ariana's album comes in weeks.

Number 1 om iTunes Worldwide (105,504) by MC1989 from Spain
Congratulations to MC and AG for this success. This colaboration needs a video a la "Telephone". Something epic, not just a promo video on Instagram (horrific by the way). Just dreaming.

Yes, and? #1 (105,503) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway
Mariah and Ariana sit comfortably on top of the iTunes top 100 world chart.

Is it true? That fans got a billboard to promote YAR?

MV snippet (105,501) by Stacey from USA
I like the song. It's got 90s retro vibe all over it and I am totally on board, minus the cuss words. Ugh, someone find me a clean remix version. Stat. But, I digress. Given her last couple of songs (remember I Don't, Crapfinity, Save the Day), I'd say this is a huge improvement. Hopefully a new album continues in this direction.

You, sir, have great taste in music. My favorite songs on there are Isaac, Forbidden Love and Let it Will Be.

I would love so throwback house mixes for the new album singles. I feel this year is going to be Mimi's year to shine.

Literally the song playing right now in my car as I'm reading your post is Sorry from Confessions on a Dance Floor.

(105,494) by Carlos Jaramillo from United States
I just realized that she did the harmonizing higher note, in chest voice, all throughout Ariana's verses. The difference is, again, if you listen closely, Mariah did it in full chest voice. Basically, Mariah was saying, "I can sing whatever she's singing still, but better/stronger."

Yes, And... Obsessed (105,493) by Matty from Vancouver Canada
What an amazing return to pure Pop for MC. This bleeds her early dance jams like Someday remix. I absolutely love their voices together, and it elevates the OG version so much. I love all these women forward songs Mariah has done recently from Brandy, to Lotto and Ari.

Yes, And? (105,492) by Anonymous from USA
Madonna's Confessions on a Dance Floor is one of my favorite albums, it is just perfect. I wish MC would actually do something like that but with her twist on it, her lyrics alone would be superior. I want a continuous all dance album. 12 tracks.

Yes And? (105,491) by Anonymous from USA
Since hearing it just twice it's gotten stuck in my head already. I would say job well done for that reason alone. Though I genuinely like it, I can see why it's not for everyone. Keep 'em coming. We've been waiting for new music for so long and I'm just grateful that we get this remix. It should create buzz for MC's next album and lead single if she strikes while the iron is hot. I guess we'll have to wait and see. Happy Friday and happy streaming everyone.
