Re: Nick (97,811) (97,813) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter
Wait what? What are you even talking about? Were you even replying to my post? Where did I give Nick a pass because he's wealthy? I said he's a mess and immature.

Re: Best opening line (97,810) (97,812) by Bill from the UK
I mean, it's actually "honey" though. The lyric booklet confirms as do all the live performances where you can hear it more clearly so (ellipses) yeah.

Invest in some headphones that don't come free with your phone.

Re: Nick (97,809) (97,811) by Andrew from the United Kingdom
Mariah had babies with Nick Cannon? No. Nick Cannon had babies with Mariah Carey. On a conveyor belt of stereotype, he is. Because he is financially wealthy, this is okay? Give him a hundred dollars in his bank account: is your levity and moral judgment the same? Is it? Financial wealth does not negate moral bankruptcy.

Oh, William. Some people say it's "Honey..." some people say it's "Now...". Google it. I say it's "Now...".

Re: Nick (97,805) (97,809) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter
"My opinion would be different if clear separation was between the pregnancies but he got these hoes in rotation." Oh my haha I spit my coffee out laughing. Honestly though I always thought Mariah and Nick would reconcile and get back together because of their history and the kids but now there isn't any chance. And it's for the better too I guess. Nick was so immature when they got married (leaking their phone numbers and all) I thought he'd become more mature with age and they'd get back together but clearly he's still out there being a mess. I wonder how Mariah feels. We all know once Mariah is done with someone she doesn't acknowledge them anymore but with Nick she really put the kids first and was civil.

We know at least Miss Monroe and Rocky will not have financial issues.

Re: Nick (97,805) (97,807) by MusicfanJ from Germany
The only good thing is that the children will never have financial problems. Three different women in such a short period with babies. It really says a lot about him. What did Mariah once sang: "He brings the drama, six baby mamas." Well I hope it will not end with six. Lol.

Re: Best opening line (97,802) (97,806) by Bill from the UK
It's actually "Honey you can have me when you want me", not "now". But her voice sort of catches on the "ho" syllable and you mainly hear the "ney", so understand how it can be misheard.

The beauty of having a good sound set up and speakers etc. is that you notice these things. For years I thought she sang "yeah, you can have me when you want me".

Re: Nick (97,803) (97,805) by Leo from LAMBville
I agree with Andrew! Nick having all these "Baby Mommy" situations. My perspective is Nick calls himself a king when he lives like a clown. How do you call yourself a king and multiple with different woman in such a short period of time. I understand people live different lives and may not represent the "norm" but it's disgraceful to not only himself as a man but to his children and the 2nd and 3rd women to have his children. You basically sit back and have unprotected sex with someone who has zero interest in being 100% to your family you both create.

My opinion would be different if clear separation was between the pregnancies but he got these hoes in rotation.

Today Where I Belong goes for radio adds (97,804) by T from USA
Today we should all call one station in our area to request. One of two things will happen with this song. Either it will start to get rhythmic play and Mariah will be back on a radio format not seen since 2015s #Beautiful. Six years ago. Or the song will come and go without as much as a whimper. There are a lot of factors at play of course. But if we don't all do our part this week then we shouldn't complain if Mariah is yet again shut out of radio. Building a relationship with a format is important for her next release. Unless she is planning to work with Walter, she will need rhythmic to have any kind of success. In all actuality many casual listeners believe Mariah's last current song was Obsessed in 2009. We can also do our part by sharing the video everywhere. And pressing like on other shared posts of it. But specifically radio will help the video get more views. Lets do this, we have the casual hip hop fans on our side.

Children with three different women? The man is an utter disgrace.

Re: Best opening line (97,800) (97,802) by Andrew from the United Kingdom
When thinking about it I did actually think Honey could take the crown, not for the breathy background line you mentioned but for:

"Now, you can have me when you want me."

It's such a confident, awesome opening line. I read a lot more into the line than it just being Mariah's promise to a lover. Does anyone else hear as Mariah saying to her fans: "Now that shut is over, I'm free and here for you. Nobody is standing between us." I love the line.

Re: Best opening line (97,752) (97,800) by this_is_qhm from the Philippines
To me the best opening line may not be the most popular, but is brilliant not because of the lyrical content, but because of the way it was performed and its impact.

It's the eargasmic opening line of Honey, delivered with breathy ohs, effectively ushering in the era of a sexy nu-Mariah, announcing her return from a quick break in the most seductive way possible. This is a level of expensive, effortless sexiness that she has yet to top. When she coos "Honey got me hooked on you...", you'll be like, "Same, Mariah, same."

The fact that it's repeated in the bridge is just a bonus.

I love "Sent from up above". Such a relaxed, cool song. Great opening line too.

Re: Best opening line (97,792) (97,797) by Stacey from USA
Who made me the what you call it, opening line fairy? Um, me, lol. Haha. Besides if you're going to go that route, any good JD fan knows his best opening line is, "Ya'all know what this is?"

Anyways, I do agree with you about Hero. That was the first Mariah song I ever heard. People can bag on Tommy all they want. The guy made MC keep this song and record it herself and make a Christmas album.

"I, don't want a lot for Christmas..." Iconic.

Where I Belong video (97,796) by T from USA
WIB video is already at 5 million on YouTube and over 2 million on Facebook. Mariah looks great in it and their chemistry is still top notch. But we got to do something for radio support. Be it twitter or good old fashion call and request, but the video can't do it alone. If it gets a few initial radio spins it may just start taking off on its own. Do you know what a minor rhythmic hit could do for Mariahs next project?

Re: Best opening line (97,783) (97,792) by Andrew from the United Kingdom
Why, Miss Stacey, I do declayuh, who died and made you First Line Fairy? Ha. Any good little lamb knows the greatest opening line is:

"There's a hero if you look inside your heart..."

The whole song summed up in the in the first line, you trust her because you know immediately exactly what she is doing and exactly where she is taking you.

And if that isn't just about the one line every young person going through shit, feeling depressed and contemplating suicide needs to have emblazoned in their minds.

It's all right there. In that one single line.

In my sleepless solitude tonight
If it's wrong to love you
Then my heart just won't let me be right
