Don't forget to stream US fans (101,983) by Steve from USA So why do you keep referring to Mariah as Marian? Is this some sort of trollish dig? It's... odd. (Thursday 29 December 2022; 15:17) this is a reply to message 101,974

Don't forget to stream US fans (101,974) by Edward from USA Let's see about that. December 24 and 25, in which Marian broke records count towards next week. Marian still has a huge chance to remain at the top. If not, three weeks is good enough for me. (Wednesday 28 December 2022; 01:08)

Billboard chart dated 7th January 2023 (101,982) by Edward from USA Nobody's conspiring against Marian [sic]. The charts reflects what people are listening to. Should Brenda hit #1 next week, good for her. The rules apply to everyone. (Thursday 29 December 2022; 12:06) this is a reply to message 101,978

Billboard chart dated 7th January 2023 (101,978) by Jason from US I think Brenda might get the No.1 spot because of her Spotify streams, very much far ahead from Mariah. I love the song but it doesn't tally with her success from other platforms like iTunes, Apple music, YouTube, radio etc. I think someone at US Spotify is manipulating the streams. Not sure why.

Rainbow 25th anniversary (101,981) by jaker20 from US Wait, Pride Version never thought of that. That's an excellent idea. It's amazing how that cover photo has become so iconic in itself. (Thursday 29 December 2022; 01:40) this is a reply to message 101,979

Rainbow 25th anniversary (101,979) by Bobby A from United States Rainbow's 25th anniversary will be in 2024. I tweeted MC and Sony Legacy today for vinyl boxset to celebrate its release. I didn't realize that the album has only sold 3 million copies so far. Our chances of seeing any type of anniversary release is problem slim to zero because of no extra tracks. But I would love to see a pride version with Frank Ocean (How Much), Lil Nas X (Did I Do That?), Sam Smith (Crybaby), Billy Porter (TGIFY), and Daley (Can't Take That Away). Only time will tell. (Wednesday 28 December 2022; 20:52)

Darlene and all (101,980) by jaker20 from US Absolutely. But with each passing year it becomes more and more difficult and with the state of her voice, she can no longer pick and choose which song will be her next hit. However, I was just imaging that Love Me Like You Do was her song. I think something like that could be a hit her. I also think that BER would have been a bigger hit for her and Latto if it was the main version that was released. I think she still have plenty of options if she chooses to act on them.

Darlene and all (101,977) by Terna from Nigeria I want her next number one to be a regular genre song not a Christmas one, enough of the Christmas decoration, hibernation stunt. Yes it is good that she gets to go number one every year, but I want another "We Belong Together", "Touch My Body", "Fantasy", "Obsessed", "Heartbreaker" moment where she hits number one with a regular song. It is important that that 20th number one not be a Christmas number at all. (Wednesday 28 December 2022; 17:32)

Billboard chart dated 7th January 2023 (101,975) by Rashidi Rahim Rick from Malaysia For chart dated 7th January 2023, the tracking days that count would be from 23rd December 2022 until 29th December 2022. So those 4 days (23 until 26) generally people are still listening to Christmas music. I hope Mariah would get her 12th week (dated 7 January 2023) and it will make her having a No 1 song for 5 consecutive years (2019-2023). Fingers crossed lambs. (Wednesday 28 December 2022; 09:16)

Darlene and all (101,969) by jaker20 from US I think Mariah should accept that duet offer and snatch that 20th no.1. With all the controversy, Mariah should reconcile with her around September and generate publicity for the supposed "feud" turned duet lol. Mariah's C(BPCH) version itself is getting more and more popular every year, it just needs a little push. There's a few other songs Mariah could duet with, like she did with AIWFCIY duets with so many artists over the years. Lambs might not have noticed the duet with Justin Bierber reintroduced the song in a big way to a lot of people 12 years ago, and she should do the same, maybe for either C(BPCH) or another song, because I don't think the Hey Santa duets with Ariana and JHud worked so well. I still love it though. (Tuesday 27 December 2022; 17:14)

90th week atop (101,976) by MusicfanJ from Germany Wow, congrats to the one and only MC. She really has broken every record one can break. On a side note: I was looking at the new Instagram pics, Mariah with Bryan and the kids. And I thought that look is so "Daydream Mariah". I love it. It's classy and beautiful. It really looks like 96. She has the sweetest smile, she really seems to enjoy the holidays. Something that makes me happy to see. All I want as a lifetime fan is a happy, healthy Mariah.

Don't forget to stream US fans (101,971) by Bobby A from United States We did it Lambs. MC is number #1 for another week. Is it just me? I heard and saw AIWFCIY everywhere this year from parties to department stores to school programs. Maybe people are really liking MC's it's time videos. This year's video was her best one yet.

AIWFCIY locks another week at #1 (101,972) by Rashidi Rahim Rick from Malaysia This is her fifth week at No 1 for 2022. Two weeks in January and three weeks in December. (Tuesday 27 December 2022; 21:36) this is a reply to message 101,970

AIWFCIY locks another week at #1 (101,970) by Edward from USA Mariah locks her second week at #1 this year for a total of 11 weeks. Brenda was close, but with Mariah breaking the record of most streamed song ever on Spotify, Brenda didn't stand a chance. Actually, this is the 3rd week at number one for this year.

Don't forget to stream US fans (101,964) by Pedro from Brazil According to Talk of the Charts, Brenda Lee's "Rockin' Around The Christmas Tree" is challenging "All I Want For Christmas Is You" for the #1 spot on next week's Billboard Hot 100 based off of early projections. Brenda's lead over Mariah on Spotify is up from ~25% last week to over 30% in the first three days of this tracking week. Paired with the incoming collapse of holiday radio, Mariah is expected to lose more points via radio, making this week's race close. (Monday 26 December 2022; 23:30)

Article: Is Mariah Carey lying about creation of hit song? (101,968) by jaker20 from US He is such a liar. Even his interviews, he can't say straight up that he wrote a single word on it. He's talking around it, oh he played this, he played that, he collabed with Mimi, yada yada. He himself said that it was Mariah who would sing "I don't want a lot for Christmas" which became the main melody. He probably just hummed "dadda dada, hmm hmm" and said he co-wrote it. That is because he can't. It is important for Mariah to tell these stories, to tell the inspiration for the song, because that is what separates her from Walter. Mariah is a story-teller, she tells stories about her youth, about her Christmas experience, and how she loves the season. And all that contributes to the genius of the song. Inspiration is very important to ownership. Walter has been talking for decades and can't come up with any, because he had none. Does he even like Christmas? Lol. You know, he is from the time when men controls how women gets credit, and we are better off forgetting people like that. (Tuesday 27 December 2022; 16:57) this is a reply to message 101,960

Article: Is Mariah Carey lying about creation of hit song? (101,960) by Betty from Canada Walter is the one lying and fabricating stories because he sold his rights to the song for a fat pay check a few yeas ago but now the song is getting bigger and bigger every year while Mariah refuses to work with him ever again. Karma. (Sunday 25 December 2022; 20:55)

O Holy Night music video (101,967) by Rashidi Rahim Rick from Malaysia At the end of 2000, Mariah shot a live music video of O Holy Night at a church, the one where she wore the cute red dress. I was thinking, why is this video so random? My theory was maybe the budget and project to shoot the video was originally for Where Are You Christmas (it was the same time the song by Faith was released) and because Mariah didn't get clearance by Sony to release the song so they thought why not just shot a random video for any song from the Christmas album. I guess they picked O Holy Night because that's the only single that didn't have any official video and later they released it in Japan for the album's limited edition in 2000. Maybe the original plan was to make Where Are You Christmas as bonus track for the re-release Merry Christmas album back then. Such a waste of opportunity and a hit song by Mariah.

MC's sexiest video (101,965) by Bobby A from United States I was thinking about the male model today in My All. His name is Matt King. He is still modeling today.

Miss you most at Christmas time (101,953) by Edward from USA It is a great song indeed. I loved it since the first time I listened to it. It is just one of those songs that's great lyrically and musically. On top of that, Mariah's yearning makes it perfect. The three original songs on that album are simply great. I know many here don't like "Jesus Born on This Day" but I do love it. Merry Christmas Stacey. (Saturday 24 December 2022; 17:35)
