Re: Big big fantasy (100,058) (100,061) by T from USA Mariah is [a] genius because she basically just swallowed this whole song while keeping Fantasy's reputation in tact. (Wednesday 30 March 2022; 19:33)

Big streaming (100,060) by Matty from Vancouver Canada Yay to the B.E. remix being number one in Canada and the USA! Odd about the streaming lack; my friend is only using Amazon Music for streaming, and he says it isn't not available on there, and to listen to it he had to YouTube it. Maybe it's not on Spotify or other streaming services? (Wednesday 30 March 2022; 19:18)

Re: Big big fantasy (100,058) (100,059) by Nicky from Jasmine's Sofa "Pure Mariah" is right, it feels just like summer. Just played Big Energy Remix followed by Don't Stop (Funkin' 4 Jamaica), You Don't Know What To Do, O.O.C., and It's Like That. I'm drenched in sweat, I love her dance music so so much. Bop after bop, she's such a vibe. (Wednesday 30 March 2022; 18:34)

Re: Big big fantasy (100,054) (100,058) by MusicfanJ from Germany "Is it just me or does this sound like a Fantasy remix featuring Latto?" No I thought the same. "Fantasy" is such a stand-out song, one of the best Pop-RnB songs ever. The sample from "Genius of love" was genius by Mariah. What she did with "Fantasy", it's just perfect from beginning to end. The same with the ODB remix. So no matter which new rapper or singer will choose to use Mariah's song, it will always sound good because the original is one of the best. "Fantasy" is and always will be pure Mariah. (Wednesday 30 March 2022; 16:35)

Re: iTunes world chart (100,041) (100,057) by Aliya from Canada Now it's #1 on iTunes Canada as well! (Wednesday 30 March 2022; 15:43)

Re: Big big fantasy (100,054) (100,056) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway I'm a bit worried this release also will just fade away without the public realising it even exist. It is at #2 on the worldwide iTunes chart, but as people are pointing out here, the streaming numbers are atrocious. I will for sure enjoy the remix all summer, but I wish the general public also would enjoy this bop. I agree it sounds more of a Latto remix of a Mariah song, but I think that's because we are well aware of Mariah's back catalogue, and we recognize the Tom Tom Club sample instantly, most people don't do that, and don't know Mariah "owns" this sample. Anyway, anxious to see if the remix will chart on the Billboard Hot 100. (Wednesday 30 March 2022; 10:51)

Re: Big Energy remix - Spotify chart (100,048) (100,055) by SM from Citizen of the World How is a song #1 on iTunes where you pay $1.29 for a song and not even in the top 200 on Spotify where you pay monthly (I believe lol), that confuses me. (Wednesday 30 March 2022; 10:19)

Big big fantasy (100,054) by Nicky from Jasmine's Sofa I am so surprised. I thought this had the potential to be a tacky. It's actually a whole bop. It sounds fresh and refreshed, it's absolutely spectacular for summer, and it feels like a festive 90s summer cookout. Congrats to Mimi and Latto. There is going to be a big push for this, especially after the video drops. I think it could even go all the way to the top. Is it just me or does this sound like a Fantasy remix featuring Latto? Only Mariah could do this, and I'm so here for it. Cheers lambs. If she pulls off this number 1, I'm going to have to figure out how to get Black Irish in the Caribbean so I can toast to her big big energy. (Wednesday 30 March 2022; 07:08)

Re: Statistics (100,050) (100,053) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Having the "I'm in heaven part" was also something I was thinking of. Would tie in the 3 songs (original, Mariah and BE) together so nicely. And a little "shoo-be-doodoodood-doodoo-doo". (Tuesday 29 March 2022; 22:46)

Re: Statistics (100,050) (100,052) by Bobby A from United States Really JC. That's why I miss living in DFW. The clubs on Cedar Springs in Oaklawn always play great dance mixes and mashups. K104.5 with Dee Dee in Morning with Jade kept me laughing and singing on the way to work. (Tuesday 29 March 2022; 18:28)

Re: Statistics (100,047) (100,051) by Bobby A from United States Joachim, thank you for posting this. This is what I need to see what new songs that I can add to my workout playlist. (Tuesday 29 March 2022; 18:19)

Re: Statistics (100,047) (100,050) by JC from USA Thanks for sharing. Looks like some great momentum. Personally, I love the track. I'm glad there isn't a new verse (though I would loved to have the "I'm in heaven..." part also included). In Dallas, they've already been mixing these two songs together at the clubs for at least the past few weeks. Seems they're taking the Doja and Meggan Thee Stallion approach by remixing with big names in hopes of scoring a #1. It worked for both of them (both their remixes hit #1).

New album buzz (100,049) by Weston from United States Just think, if this Big Energy remix hits the top ten on the Hot 100 (even better if it gives her the elusive 20th #1), it will create amazing and positive buzz for her upcoming studio album. If this is their marketing ploy, it just might work. She's on it this time around. (Tuesday 29 March 2022; 17:23)

Big Energy remix - Spotify chart (100,048) by Horacio from United States While I’m happy the song is doing well on iTunes, the some seems DOA on streaming it didn’t even debut on the top 200 over at Spotify yesterday. (Tuesday 29 March 2022; 17:21)

Statistics (100,047) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway If you haven't heard about this site, you should, it's my go to site when I want to explore what's popular in music on different platforms at the moment. And what it seems like, Mariah's remix is more than twice as big on the iTunes US chart than the song in second place, just amazing. (Tuesday 29 March 2022; 16:14)

Re: Article: Mariah Carey turns 53 (100,040) (100,046) by Edward from USA At this point in her career having been born in 1969 or a year later doesn't matter, back then it did. I do think she's 53, she should own it. She's had a fascinating career and doesn't look her age at all. (Tuesday 29 March 2022; 16:14)

Re: Remix (100,039) (100,045) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter That is so sweet of your husband, also a happy belated anniversary to your grandma. (Tuesday 29 March 2022; 15:16)

Re: Just wondering (100,038) (100,044) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter From what I gather the remix needs to do better than the original for it to include Marian's name on the charts but also the rules are flexible on this (that's about all I know) however yes if it does have Mariah's name, the tally will add to hers. That's how Rihanna got most of her #1s too. (Tuesday 29 March 2022; 15:15)

I'm gunna do a remix (100,043) by T from USA Instead of that long whistle at the beginning she should've sung the famous line "I'm gunna do a remix" in a tribute to ODB. Then DJ Khalid could've jumped in with his shouting hype. That's the only thing I would've changed. Save the whistle high not for the end. I understand keeping the iconic verse but maybe the second part could've been updated to reflect the current times. Oh when you walk by every night Talking sweet and looking fine I get kinda hectic inside Baby after all these years I'm still into you my dear You're no longer just in my mind And it's just a sweet sweet (Tuesday 29 March 2022; 13:52)

Re: Remix (100,039) (100,042) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway I agree with you, another new written verse from Mariah would have been perfect. Also, I feel the song doesn't have a climax, I have listened to it 50 times, at least, now, but I start it from the beginning again after Latto has rapped after Mariah's verse. Understand me correctly, I absolutely love the remix, I feel this spring will be the best in years, but after the Mariah part, the song fades away, if you know what I mean, I whish it had some type of climax. Gonna listen to it again now, and again, and again, and again. (Tuesday 29 March 2022; 09:55)

iTunes world chart (100,041) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway The remix is currently #4 on the iTunes world chart. I haven't been this excited about a new Mariah release in years, have high hopes this could be a bit of a resurgence for our beloved Mariah. (Tuesday 29 March 2022; 09:26)

Article: Mariah Carey turns 53 (100,040) by Lainsky from Philippines If you are going to look at the news in past, clearly she was born in 1970. However, it seems that the recent articles (and Mariah herself), including this one, finally acknowledge that she was born in 1966. That makes her 53 years old. Anyway, it is just a number and she still looks young and hot at this point of her life. Happy Anniversary MC! (Tuesday 29 March 2022; 05:31)

Re: Remix (100,028) (100,039) by Anonymous from USA I'm really enjoying the remix too. A couple of things though. It would have been better if Mimi rapped on the song and sang a whole new verse instead of the same lyrics from 1995. I do like that "sweeeeet fantasy" a lot. I wish it was a little longer, but I get that they need to keep it cute and short for radio. I do think this song has a lot of potential and it's in the right direction of what I'm craving musically from Mimi. It's a grower for sure, I don't want y'all to think that I'm complaining lol. This morning, my husband said to me "I want you to hear something" and started playing it from our library. He was so sweet to download it and have it ready for me when I woke up this morning. He liked how excited I got over the remix announcement. Now, let's stream the hell out of it and get it to number 1! Thank you Mimi for giving us something to hold us over until the new project drops. We love you and happy belated anniversary! My grandmother shares an anniversary with Mimi.

Just wondering (100,038) by Ricardo from New Zealand Can a remix chart on Hot 100 and if it can, and made it to #1, would it be counted towards Mariah's tally? Just wondering. (Tuesday 29 March 2022; 03:38)

Re: Latto/Mariah remix (100,034) (100,037) by Bobby A from United States Radio is playing it already here in Atlanta. Post if you hear it in your city. (Monday 28 March 2022; 22:56)
