Out here on my own (95,613) by Gee from U.S.A. (New York City) "Out here on my own" I do not understand why this brilliance was tucked away for so long. However better to receive, then get nothing at all. This is how a cover song should be done. Mariah gave power, vulnerability, and full voice. This was beautiful, and raw. All I can say is Mariah [you're] truly one of a kind. This cover is another special one, she paid homage, and still made it her own and damn it she took to another level like only Mariah can. This is the brilliance that makes Mariah, and her talent unmatched. (Friday 18 September 2020; 14:20)

Out Here On My Own (95,612) by BFF from United States This is a really great cover, and I am not surprised that it was recorded for "All That Glitters". It fits perfectly with the theme of the film. This is just another indication of how watered down the final product became from what Mariah and Cheryl West originally envisioned. She really worked hard on this project for so many years, and I can't imagine how humiliating it must have been to go through the motions of promoting the watered down "Glitter" film and soundtrack in 2001. Really interested to read all about what happened in the memoir. Hopefully she is planning something interesting for the 20th anniversary of "Glitter". I really would love to hear that collaboration with Prince and a studio version of "Lillie's Blues". (Friday 18 September 2020; 13:53)

Re: Out Here On My Own (95,603) (95,611) by Shezz from Pk Gut wrenching and so powerfully beautiful like only Mariah can do. I guess they decided they didn't want Billie to sing an already famous 80's song as if it was her's. I don't know if I'm explaining myself properly. I'd still love to know why it was kept off the soundtrack, would have been a closer to rival EFA for sure. I wonder if she and the label would be willing to promote a song recorded 20 years ago.

Re: Out Here On My Own (95,598) (95,610) by Bobby A from United States Edward, you are going to make me laugh now and cry later. Lol. (Friday 18 September 2020; 12:18)

Out Here On My Own (95,609) by Todd from Sydney, Australia I must have listened to this at least 50 times. It has always been one of my favourite songs, but the way Mariah does it - it's utterly spellbinding. Good work MC. (Friday 18 September 2020; 11:52)

Re: Out here loving this (95,606) (95,608) by Norman from USA Brokenhearted hits the nail on the head. (Friday 18 September 2020; 11:41)

Re: Mariah's insta story (95,604) (95,607) by Musti from UK I feel the same. The song is from the 80s, M recorded it in 2000 and it fits perfectly with Billie's storyline. (Friday 18 September 2020; 11:37)

Re: Out here loving this (95,605) (95,606) by Musti from UK I'm in love with this song. Every listen leaves me brokenhearted, but I keep going back for more. The magic of that voice. (Friday 18 September 2020; 11:35)

Out here loving this (95,605) by Norman from USA Out Here on My Own has truly exceed any expectation I've had for a new single of hers in the past 15 years. I have it playing on loop There are moments where it reminds me of Help Me Make it Through The Night. It's so beautifully executed in a simple and evocative way and tone. It proves less is more. I'm not really caring about the charts with this song. I'm just thankful it's available to us. (Friday 18 September 2020; 10:22)

Mariah's insta story (95,604) by Bill from the UK Okay so Mariah uploaded a clip on her Insta story for Out Here On My Own showing the master tape sleeve. There's a song called "So, it's just the way", which I assume ended up being "Want You", but there are also two redacted tracks. Mariah this is cruel lol. If there is more songs from Glitter please put them out. Especially the rumoured Prince duet. (Friday 18 September 2020; 09:19)

Re: Out Here On My Own (95,587) (95,603) by Bill from the UK I loved the snippet, but the full version is absolutely beautiful. How has this been locked up for 20 years? It is beyond belief. Mariah sings it wonderfully, such passion. Was this meant for Glitter do we think? This would have been an incredible album closer if it was. (Friday 18 September 2020; 09:06)

Out here on my own (95,602) by TheWind from England "Out here on my own" is the kind of music Mariah should be making consistently. Great melody. Relatable lyrics. Gorgeous vocals. Not overthought. Not overproduced. Not over layered. An absolutely gorgeous track, and the best I've heard from Mariah in a long, long time. She should trust her writing instincts more and keep it simple. (Friday 18 September 2020; 07:16)

Re: Out Here On My Own (95,595) (95,601) by 123 from USA Just heard this on Spotify. It does not disappoint. Such a beautiful vocal. Rich in tone, sung in full voice in her mid range. I love that it's in 2000 and has Mariah listed as the sole producer. The Rainbow era may have lacked high belts, but she made up for it by giving us a lot of tone. Excited for the album and book now. This song gives you the feels from beginning to end. The whole thing is a journey. I could hear this on the radio if the label is willing to give it a radio budget and put money behind promoting the record. She needs a video of a little Mariah performing this in a talent show. I feel like she is telling a story on how the songs are being released. First STD, and now On My Own. Today's artists don't do this. (Friday 18 September 2020; 06:29)

Re: Out Here On My Own (95,582) (95,600) by enwar00 from usa I've actually never heard the original so hearing Mariah's version will be completely new to me. Thanks for sharing Terna, it wasn't one of the ones off The Rarities I've been waiting for but now I'm looking forward to hearing it very very soon. (Friday 18 September 2020; 06:12)

Out Here snippet (95,599) by Lainsky from Philippines Goosebumps and excitement were the feelings I got upon hearing the snippet of this song. How much more the entire song. I believe her rendition will sound like this is her song similar to what she did with WY, IBT, OA, and ISB. Hoping that this cover of Irene Cara's original will become Mariah's certified hit this year. For the sake of MC30 oh dear Lord please. It's 18th already here so in a a few hours it will be out here for all us. (Friday 18 September 2020; 05:02)

Re: Out Here On My Own (95,594) (95,598) by Edward from USA For how long have you been posting here? That's the nice side of Andrew, sarcastically nice, but nice. Enjoy it. And put your pic back, Robert-Anthony is about to go crazy. He's about to take the free shipping off the table. (Friday 18 September 2020; 03:52)

What if (95,597) by Bobby A from United States I was just listening to Irene Cara's version of OHOMO. Wouldn't it be amazing after 25 years if MC wins several Grammys for The Rarities? Can a compilation album of previously released songs and new songs be nominated for a Grammy? I think so because MJ's History was nominated for Album of The Year in 1995. I am really excited for next week Lambs. (Friday 18 September 2020; 03:45)

Randy (95,596) by Gee from U.S.A. (New York City) Randy no need to come off so defensive, and my point was not to school anyone. I was correcting you on something in terms of the song Babydoll. Yes Mariah, and Missy co-wrote the song together, however Timbaland had no part of the song The production of the song was created by Stevie J along with MC, and Corey Rooney. (Friday 18 September 2020; 02:30)

Re: Out Here On My Own (95,594) (95,595) by Bobby A from United States You know I got you Bill. Lol. He has left me alone for awhile. (Friday 18 September 2020; 01:23)

Re: Out Here On My Own (95,593) (95,594) by Bill from the UK I can't tell if you're genuinely being nice or making fun of me. (Friday 18 September 2020; 00:10)

Re: Out Here On My Own (95,580) (95,593) by Andrew from the United Kingdom "Oh wow, so she did. Excellent. I can't believe the memoir is so close now. I've actually booked time off work to read it and listen to the new album haha. I am beyond excited." I have said it before and I shall say it again. William, I often think of you in different ways but of this I am certain: I hope one day someone loves me the way you love Mariah Carey. I genuinely wish you a lifetime of Mariah happiness. The world would not be half as interesting without the bona fide stans. (Thursday 17 September 2020; 23:40)

Out Here on My Own (95,591) by Brad from USA I am looking forward to my love affair with this song. Our romance begins late tonight. I will hear you then, my love. (Thursday 17 September 2020; 22:02)

Re: Out Here On My Own (95,587) (95,590) by MusicfanJ from Germany I also love it from the very few seconds. This is the kind of song that is really needed. (Thursday 17 September 2020; 21:50)

Re: Out Here On My Own (95,587) (95,589) by Tevin from USA This is angelic. Was it MJB that said that you can hear God in Mariah's voice? This was so true. Only 15 sec of Mariah singing and I'm ready to shed a tear on this song. (Thursday 17 September 2020; 21:45)

Re: Masters (95,585) (95,588) by We are lambily from USA Her prenup only showed that her income for 2014 was 6 million. What was the official number for her net worth then? (Thursday 17 September 2020; 21:13)
