About Manny from U.S.: I have loved Mariah since I heard Vision of Love back in 1990. I was captivated by her range, tone and beauty. I wanted to know more about her. I have followed her career and life ever since.

Mariah on Ellen (58,997) by Manny from U.S. I think Mariah's picture on Ellen to from last year is "foretelling" her appearance. She will make it l before the February dates. Ellen will announce, "we have a surprise for the audience, you are all seeing Mariah in Vegas". It does bother me to see Mariah's random pics also. It's like I'm envious of her. I don't like her having fun with her kids or Stella's kids. I was being sarcastic. Mariah, even when she wins, she loses with the lambs. (Saturday 9 January 2016; 13:16)

Re: As a Latin fan (58,962) (58,967) by Manny from U.S. I've also wondered that. Do you recall when she says that she was not happy with certain translations of her songs. Hero in Spanish sounds a little weird as far as the translation. (Friday 8 January 2016; 2:34)

Nick's Emotions (58,917) by Manny from U.S. Is it my imagination? Didn't Mariah said Nick asked for her old school music to be performed. She started performing "Emotions" again when she was with him. I'm pretty sure she did say that. Who knows what really happened with them? I'm just grateful she started singing one of my favorite Mariah songs. (Wednesday 6 January 2016; 15:24)

Vegas ticket (58,811) by Manny from U.S. Hi guys, Happy New Year Lambs. I have a little problem. I bought a ticket for the February 19 show in Vegas. It's a Friday. It's a good ticket as its 3rd row. Unfortunately I cannot make it. I live in San Diego, California. I rather sell it to a lamb here in SD, since it can be a more clear transaction. Does anyone else know how I else can sell it? I'm even willing to lose on it. I just want someone to go. Maybe next time, I can see her that close. (Friday 1 January 2016; 5:56)

A Christmas Melody (58,582) by Manny from U.S. I couldn't help to notice that maybe Mariah loosely based this movie as her as a girl. She has made comments that she was bullied and made fun of. She said she was the new girl since her mom and her move around much. I really enjoyed the movie. I was noticing how the angles and shots were clearly thought out well. I'm glad that teaser with Lacey did not sum up this movie. (Sunday 20 December 2015; 18:44)

Re: My directorial debut (58,551) (58,556) by Manny from U.S. I love it. Merry Christmas. (Saturday 19 December 2015; 16:44)

Joy to the world gospel moment (58,550) by Manny from U.S. I just saw clips of JTTW gospel breakdown. I've been wishing Mariah would perform that forever. I want to see her Christmas show so bad. Maybe next year I will be able to go. I truly enjoy her Christmas material. (Saturday 19 December 2015; 11:33)

Vegas DVD (58,533) by Manny from U.S. Has anyone heard about the Vegas DVD? I remember Mariah mentioned there will be a DVD. In February, I'll see her again. This will be my third time for Vegas residency. I would love a professional account of the Vegas moments dahling. I was listening to her duet with Patricia. She is a musical genius. Her mom's operatic voice, Mariah's jazzy tone and high notes, take me to a celestial place. (Friday 18 December 2015; 4:10)

It's the most wonderful time of the year (58,296) by Manny from U.S. I'm happy for Mariah. I remember when she used to speak of plans for Christmas shows. This is the second year she does the Christmas shows. She materialized her dreams. I enjoy the Christmas season much. For me, it's not a big deal she's "the queen of Christmas". Lastly, I always see the holiday season as a way to reflect about our lives. Let's think why we are all on this board. Do we appreciate her legacy? I know it gets awkward here with discussions about her voice. I'm just thankful she is still in the business. Her instrument, her voice is unparalleled. Buh bye (high note).

Kelly and Michael (58,106) by Manny from U.S. I liked the interview with Kelly and Michael. When Kelly made the comment about singing along with Mariah, I thought it was funny. Who hasn't tried to sing along with her, and we are off key. Michael made a comment of how a singer would not want to have a backup in her who sings better. This reminded me of Brenda K Starr, who was a mediocre singer. Mariah seems to be more open when she feels comfortable with the interviewer. The whole thing with the lip sync. Realistically, she will always do it. Unless, her mom reminds her how to handle those cords. I imagine Pat telling her, "I'm a prima donna, in opera we sung live dahling."

Re: Mariah on Steve Harvey (57,990) (58,005) by Manny from U.S. My friend corrected me. I meant Hallmark not Lifetime. I don't watch TV, I see her stuff online. (Thursday 26 November 2015; 21:47)

Mariah on Steve Harvey (57,990) by Manny from U.S. I think Mariah looked tired for the interview. I think she's a tough girl. She has had a full schedule. The movie, the book, Beacon shows, her brand, and being a mother. She has a televised show on Lifetime after her movie. The promoters are probably on Mariah team's behind so that they sell more concert tickets, for Beacon and Vegas. Lifetime is probably expecting the movie to be a hit. She gave the audience those presents. We need to keep in mind she needs to promote all those things. It must be stressful and tiring. I just have sympathy because of the fact she's a mother now. She said it herself. They come first. Happy thanksgiving guys. (Thursday 26 November 2015; 7:59)

Putting on a show (57,871) by Manny from U.S. I appreciate sincerity in people. I don't want to get much into politics. I'm just glad Mariah is not fake like Madonna. Madonna looked fake to me with her crocodile tears with her speech about Paris. I am actually a fan of Madonna, but she looks fake. I rather hear an honest "I hate you" than a fake "I love you". (Thursday 19 November 2015; 3:53)

Throwback pictures (57,847) by Manny from U.S. I was thinking of the throwback pictures posted on Mariah's social media accounts. I wonder of its just a "survey", in a subtle way. Stella might be seeing which ones are more popular. She might check which "Mariah" people like. People start commenting things like "this was my fav era, she released Butterfly" or similar things. They will go from there and Mariah will write music inspired from that era for next album. It's just a theory. I listen to "Elusive Chanteuse". It's one of favorite albums. It'll be awesome if she performs songs from that album someday. (Tuesday 17 November 2015; 0:47)

Gospel and Christmas DVD (57,815) by Manny from U.S. I was watching Mariah's 1994 JTTW, at St John's church. At the end, the breakdown gives me life. I rewind it like 20 times. I'm not exaggerating. I also rewind the end of "Jesus (oh what a wonderful child)". I like her gospel "moments". I would love to hear complete gospel songs from her. Since Mariah is "the queen of Christmas", it would be awesome to have her Beacon shows on a DVD or televised. I haven't been able to see travel to NY and see her. Having a better audio than the ones on YouTube would be perfect. (Sunday 15 November 2015; 4:05)

Re: Paradox of the charts (57,648) (57,657) by Manny from U.S. I brought up this diva thing because of the interview she gave. I did notice at the Macau performance, she told the photographers to take pictures of the other side. I thought to myself, "Come on girl, focus on the singing." Was that being a diva? I've had discussions with my friends and my ex. They tell me they used to buy her records until she became a big diva. I'm not here to talk bad about Mariah. I'm only stating what my friends say. I can't wait to see her in February. (Thursday 5 November 2015; 22:23)

Paradox of the charts (57,643) by Manny from U.S. I can't helped to noticed this paradox of the music charts. Well, at least how it's implied on this message board. We just hate how certain artists can still be on the charts (Ariana) who does not deserve it with her boring music. It seems we discredit the charts and feel they're not credible. Yet, we want Mariah to get more number ones. I enjoy Mariah's music no matter what now. I'm not waiting for another number one. I listen to Mariah because I enjoy her voice. I do have to say that Mariah's popularity has been down because of her diva antics. My friends say she's the biggest diva, and she always has to dress sexy, wearing sizes too small. That's the biggest complaint about her. She recently said she'll always be a diva, to the point they do her hair and make up while directing. So there you have it. Old habits die hard.

Hidden notes (57,610) by Manny from U.S. I've come across background vocals I hadn't noticed. Usually this happens when using headphones and I realized she did different vocals for the left and the right. On YouTube there's a channel that shows those hidden notes. This is one for I Am Free. (Tuesday 3 November 2015; 5:18)

Re: License to kill (57,466) (57,477) by Manny from U.S. When they used to play Sinead O'Conor's "Nothing compares to you" or George Michael's "One more try", I thought it was "Can't let go". Only the intros sound like it. (Friday 23 October 2015; 10:15)

Re: I'll Be There (Thanksgiving special) video and mp3 (57,455) (57,464) by Manny from U.S. Thank you Edward. I hadn't seen this performance in a while. Now, I'm trying to remember what I did with my Mariah VHS's. I just know my VCR was obsolete and it broke anyway. (Thursday 22 October 2015; 22:08)

Re: I'll be there (57,446) (57,452) by Manny from U.S. Why does Vevo not let me play it? It says it's not available in my country. I live in the U.S. (Wednesday 21 October 2015; 23:22)

Re: 1992 Photoshoot (57,307) (57,310) by Manny from U.S. Wasn't this picture in a Mariah calendar like in 91? A guy I knew was a big fan. I was surprised when I saw her calendar. I never knew she had one. (Thursday 15 October 2015; 23:04)

Daydream (57,093) by Manny from U.S. The memory I have of "Daydream" was going on rollercoasters and singing "Fantasy". It was usually my cousin, sister or someone who was not into her. They just thought I was a crazy teenager. Later, when I met other lambs, I felt normal doing that with them. I met them after high school though. (Sunday 4 October 2015; 0:00)

Re: Band Intro (56,986) (56,995) by Manny from U.S. I saw Mariah for the first time during CB tour. When I heard her hit the whistle note after the keyboard player, I was blown away. It sounded like she could communicate with dolphins. She hit the note like nothing and match the timbre. It's like she has a synthesizer in her voice. (Wednesday 30 September 2015; 8:08)

Re: MC and JD on Twitter (56,928) (56,945) by Manny from U.S. Those horoscopes are posted daily. The tweeter will sign up for them and they are posted on their profile automatically. (Monday 28 September 2015; 20:09)
