About Robert-Anthony from United States: I have been a Lamb since 1990. I know Mariah. I love her music. I breathe her music.

Re: The Butterfly Lounge: the Atlanta sessions (99,127) (99,259) by Robert-Anthony from United States It was reported on Twitter today that MC confirmed her recording session with Brandy. I am predicting that Butterfly will get released this coming Spring with 5 newly recorded collaborations of Vision of Love with The Clark Sisters, The Roof with Brandy, Babydoll - Timbaland remix, Whenever You Call ft. Maxwell and Outside ft. Tamar Braxton. (Wednesday 22 December 2021; 00:04)

Re: Where Are You Christmas? (99,253) (99,254) by Robert-Anthony from United States There had have been a working tape or demo that guided Faith Hill to sing like MC. I think MC is fooling us about there not being a demo. She co-writes this song with two iconic songwriters and musicians and she doesn't lay down some vocals to their piano playing. I think not.

Most iconic album (99,252) by Robert-Anthony from United States Butterfly has to be MC's most iconic album, right? We lived for her transformation from a caged pop ballad diva to a R&B hip hop flavored diva. The television performances from the album were so heartfelt and iconic. And talk about the videos from this album, they will be her best videos ever. Daydream has to be right behind Butterfly. (Tuesday 21 December 2021; 16:54)

Re: Where Are You Christmas? (98,970) (99,243) by Robert-Anthony from United States I listened to this song all the way through for the first time. Faith Hill really sung it like Mariah's demo. She captured MC's vocal style from beginning to end. I hope we get the demo next Christmas. It doesn't get very much airplay during the holiday season. WAYC will be 22 years old next year.

Re: Article: Mariah Carey enjoys a shopping spree in Aspen (99,236) (99,242) by Robert-Anthony from United States It's the plaid pattern design on the pants from 1971 dahling. I thought I was watching a scene from Issac Hayes' Shaft. She looked so better in black boarding the plane. (Tuesday 21 December 2021; 12:53)

Re: Team Tanaka (99,239) (99,241) by Robert-Anthony from United States Where have you been Special K? I have missed you. Tanaka has slimmed down a little. You can see it in his face. (Tuesday 21 December 2021; 10:12)

Re: ALWFCIY (99,233) (99,235) by Robert-Anthony from United States 16 million is the estimate sales total including that Big Mac and fries. (Tuesday 21 December 2021; 00:23)

Re: Mariah's voice (99,230) (99,232) by Robert-Anthony from United States Why are her vocals so nasal sounding in her head voice in BCPCH remake? I believe MC is suffering from constant sinus infections and allergies. Singing in these high keys is not helping matters either. You can hear the nasal sounding vocals in the ad libs in the FILAC gospel ending. There is something going on with her voice that we don't know. By the way Alicia Keys sounds horrible live now. So, MC is not the only artist having vocal issues. (Monday 20 December 2021; 16:11)

Why You Mad (99,227) by Robert-Anthony from United States Does anyone have Why You Mad on 45 RPM vinyl? It was for sale on Ebay two years ago from a seller in England. It was not an official release vinyl record. I lost the bid to someone else. I just know a Lamb on this board bought it. (Monday 20 December 2021; 02:24)

Re: AIWFCIY #1 this year? (99,225) (99,226) by Robert-Anthony from United States Mariah Carey Charts on Twitter is predicting that AIWFCIY will take the number #1 spot this week. Let's hope. (Monday 20 December 2021; 02:19)

Re: Cancelled - Mixin With Mimi (99,213) (99,216) by Robert-Anthony from United States You give your phone number when you sign up for the event. The link is on her Twitter account. (Sunday 19 December 2021; 14:43)

Interesting thought (99,211) by Robert-Anthony from United States MC has never had a woman co-produce a song with her on one of her albums. She has always worked with men. I wonder why that is so. I would love to see her co-produce with Angela Winbush, Nova Wav, Linda Perry, and Victoria Monet. (Sunday 19 December 2021; 01:59)

Cancelled - Mixin With Mimi (99,210) by Robert-Anthony from United States I just received a text, probably like many of you, that Mixin with Mimi has been cancelled. I didn't think that she was going to have other people in the lounge with her. I thought it was all virtual. Hopefully, it will happen in the spring. (Saturday 18 December 2021; 22:29)

Re: Mariah's voice (99,204) (99,207) by Robert-Anthony from United States So true. Maybe next year is not the right time for MC to release MC16. She has worked hard for 30 years. I am here to support her for whatever she releases for the Butterfly Lounge, Butterfly's 25th anniversary, and MC30. Who knows we may even get a soundtrack for TMOMC series with a few new songs.

Re: Her voice back (99,188) (99,190) by Robert-Anthony from United States I don't think it has shown any type of improvement with her new recordings from Somewhat Loved to BCPCH this year. They both have been so inconsistent from one to the other. I listened to Somewhat Loved and it seems so auto-tuned in some parts. MC gave no live Christmas performances this holiday season on network TV. I don't want to think that she is done recording full albums, but it is looking that way now. Maybe I am wrong. I still love me some MC and nothing will ever change that. I will just cherish her first four albums for showcasing her in prime vocal state. She was the vocal queen back in the early 90s. (Thursday 16 December 2021; 16:34)

Re: Change (99,165) (99,166) by Robert-Anthony from United States You are an excellent writer, Randy. (Wednesday 15 December 2021; 01:09)

Re: Change (99,157) (99,160) by Robert-Anthony from United States Gladys Knight said early in the 90s that MC sings out of her range. I wish I could find the interview. She was referring to all of the belting. (Tuesday 14 December 2021; 22:41)

Re: Change (99,145) (99,153) by Robert-Anthony from United States How different would MC's voice be now if she took a 5 year break after Merry Christmas? Daydream and Butterfly albums and tours never happened. MC returned with Rainbow in 1999. I think that she would sound like Emotions. The Maxwell approach could have worked for MC. He has only released five albums in 25 years. Wow. His voice still sounds the same even after his vocal chord surgery. (Tuesday 14 December 2021; 18:37)

Re: Change (99,145) (99,146) by Robert-Anthony from United States Her voice is phenomenon on Emotions. Not one bad song or vocal moment. (Monday 13 December 2021; 23:00)

Re: Uncertainty (99,139) (99,142) by Robert-Anthony from United States MC must be tired of spending countless hours in the studio recording 50 plus tracks for a new album knowing the state of her voice. I don't understand her mindset right now. She needs a growth mindset and not a fixed mindset. I think Daniel Moore III is filling her head with this nonsense. She had more of a drive when Big Jim was her musical director. (Monday 13 December 2021; 18:30)

Re: Caterpillar (99,135) (99,141) by Robert-Anthony from United States You said better than me Bill. Maxwell celebrates his albums' anniversaries the right way with an essay by a journalist and a 12-page photo booklet. (Monday 13 December 2021; 18:25)

Re: Uncertainty (99,130) (99,133) by Robert-Anthony from United States I would be down only to hear one song. That would be The Clarks Sisters turning Vision Of Love into a full going to church gospel song. I hope that is the song she tapped them for. Leave The Roof as a classic Mimi. (Monday 13 December 2021; 12:51)

Mix In With Mimi (99,132) by Robert-Anthony from United States How many have sign up on Twitter for Mix In With Mimi on 12/21 at 5pm Pacific time? She will be answering questions from Lambs. (Monday 13 December 2021; 12:47)

Re: Uncertainty (99,125) (99,126) by Robert-Anthony from United States Really? That is career suicide. I hope it is not true. (Sunday 12 December 2021; 23:53)

Re: Summer Walker / Still Not Over It (99,120) (99,121) by Robert-Anthony from United States Summer Walker is hot right now. She kept the momentum going from Over It. No sophomore slump here. (Sunday 12 December 2021; 01:33)
