Re: Best wishes (97,061) (97,062) by Stacey from USA Just wait until 2020 turns 21 and starts drinking, lol. We are in trouble. I'm only kidding. Here's hoping 2021 is a bit better for us all. Happy New Year! (Thursday 31 December 2020; 18:00)

Best wishes (97,061) by Tijl from Belgium 2020 was a difficult year, if not insanely crazy. At least for us lambs there was a silver lining with plenty of goods from Mimi. I wish everybody a festive transition into the New Year, which will hopefully be less chalenging. (Thursday 31 December 2020; 10:57)

Re: Beyond Christmas (97,056) (97,060) by Stacey from USA I put up Christmas decorations before Thanksgiving. No Scrooge here. (Thursday 31 December 2020; 00:57)

Merry Christmas II You vinyl (97,059) by Bobby A from United States Did anybody else order the Merry Christmas II You vinyl from MC's store and not receive it yet? It was supposed to ship in December. (Wednesday 30 December 2020; 19:26)

Re: Beyond Christmas (97,049) (97,058) by TJ from Norway What a great idea. I would also like to see the Paris concert from 2003. What a concert. (Wednesday 30 December 2020; 16:59)

MC30 (97,057) by mariahamystan from Greece Is anyone else very excited for the next MC30 releases? I really can't wait for the Charmbracelet and TEOM EPs. (Wednesday 30 December 2020; 14:48)

Re: Beyond Christmas (97,053) (97,056) by Andrew from the United Kingdom Christmas decorations are supposed to stay up until January 5, you Scrooge, you. Mariah should be capitalising on Christmas to advance knowledge of or exposure to her back catalogue. She will disappear now into the ether. Here's another idea for you: why just one Christmas special next year? Why not a series of three or four weekly episodes leading up to the final one on Christmas Eve with each episode including her non-Christmas songs interspersed among the Christmas ones? (Wednesday 30 December 2020; 12:58)

Re: Beyond Christmas (97,050) (97,055) by Andrew from the United Kingdom For someone who recently said he/she desires a mute button you should follow your own advice more closely, sweetheart. (Wednesday 30 December 2020; 12:49)

Re: Beyond Christmas (97,050) (97,054) by SM from Citizen of the World This message is just a reply directed towards no one. I always browse MC message boards and I am just so proud of her and the success AIWFCIY has had going to #1 last year. 19 number 1 singles, a number 1 song in 4 decades... come on. It's amazing and who really cares if it's Christmas or if anyone is knocking her for being the Christmas queen, clearly this many people in the world love the song every year. And to anyone ever saying she will not chart again besides her Christmas song, please let me know who has or who will "had/have" the success Mariah has had 30 years into her career. It will never happen with anyone. Again 19 number 1's, a number 1 single in 4 decades and breaking records for the most streams in a single day for any artist in the world on Spotify. Go MC you are the queen and you make any kind of music you want that expresses yourself and who cares if it charts, flops, and what anybody has to say about it. You proved yourself for 3 decades straight and ain't nobody gonna take that away. (Wednesday 30 December 2020; 06:33)

Re: Beyond Christmas (97,050) (97,053) by Stacey from USA Shhhh, don't give away our secret to surviving this place. I always listen to Christmas music until January 1st. I get in a few final listens as I take down decorations. The music never has that same magic after Christmas. It's like someone let the air out of the bag. Maybe that's where he's coming from. (Wednesday 30 December 2020; 02:28)

Bah humbug (97,052) by Todd from Melbourne, Australia There's nothing quite as lamb-depressing as looking at the Spotify and Apple Music charts a couple of days after Christmas. (Tuesday 29 December 2020; 20:50)

Mariah voice messages (97,051) by mariahamystan from Greece Hi lambs. Does anyone know where I can get the voicemails that Mariah posted on her page during the early 2000s? Especially the ones during the Glitter era. Thanks in advance. (Tuesday 29 December 2020; 18:49)

Re: Beyond Christmas (97,049) (97,050) by Lady B from USA Whispers *You do know you don't have to read about it if you're tired of it, right? You can keep scrolling and let the rest of us enjoy her success.* (Tuesday 29 December 2020; 17:43)

Beyond Christmas (97,049) by Andrew from the United Kingdom Is anyone else completely sick of hearing about and reading about AIWFCIY? It's a bit much. Also, if Apple wants Mariah to do another Christmas special next year she should request they put her concerts on Apple TV also. Or else go with Netflix. MTV Unplugged Music Box @ Proctor's Theatre Daydream @ MSG Butterfly @ Hawaii Adventures of Mimi Sweet Sweet Fantasy Tour Caution at Royal Albert Hall Mariah really needs to push her back catalogue onto streaming services by using Christmas as leverage. She could license it to them for free to ensure permanent fixture. I'd have her release on concert a week into the platform to close out MC30. (Tuesday 29 December 2020; 14:26)

Article: Mariah Carey's "Christmas" back atop Hot 100 (97,048) by Chicago Lamb from USA Re: the last paragraph here. Did I read correctly on twitter that Taylor Swift's single was put on sale for .49c and that was how she was able to claim the top spot? I suppose if it were a tactic used by Mariah's label to nab the #1 spot for a week, we'd all be cheering. Happy 2021 everyone! (Tuesday 29 December 2020; 13:50)

Re: Tokyo Dome concert (97,038) (97,047) by MusicfanJ from Germany Yes, it will be a included for "Pop around the clock" which is a TV special for New Years Eve. That's such a nice surprise with the Daydream concert. I'll watch and enjoy it. I love that concert so much. (Tuesday 29 December 2020; 12:59)

Re: Mariah Carey, BTS (I'm That Chick/Dynamite) (97,044) (97,046) by Lara from Middle East All of his/her mashups are really good. (S)He really has good editing skills and a good ear. (Tuesday 29 December 2020; 08:36)

Re: Ryan and Kelly show, thank you, next (97,043) (97,045) by Will from England She needs to find a happy middle ground between doing the music that she loves, and a strong earworm/hook which the public will pay attention to and remember. GTFO had it a little with the "how bout you?" line all throughout, but wasn't strong enough to garner much attention. I don't listen to BTS, but I keep hearing that lyric "light it up like dynamite" in my head and I don't fully know the song lol (nicely linking to my previous post ). (Monday 28 December 2020; 23:21)

Mariah Carey, BTS (I'm That Chick/Dynamite) (97,044) by Will from England This was brought up on Twitter a few days ago, and as far as fan made mash-ups are, this is a good one (another was Charlie Puth's Long and Someday mashed together, very well done). It would be interesting to see her collab with another international artist/group from a different background. Considering how big she is with Asian markets, and what BTS are doing, it would be an interesting experimental sound (for her) to put out, even if it is a remix of a song. (Monday 28 December 2020; 23:15)

Re: Ryan and Kelly show, thank you, next (97,037) (97,043) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter While I agree that there isn't in fact any "forces" trying to prevent her from getting another #1 (come on y'all she got a #1 last year with an old song) the thing I disagree with is when you say she isn't releasing anything worth charting. And yes of course different people like different kinds of songs so I'm not saying my opinion is the ultimate opinion, just saying I personally feel she did release a lot of really great songs in the middle but what's stopping her from burning up the charts are a mixture of a label push/backup (I'm talking deals and monetary support as in a strong budget), really poor promotion strategies (some of her songs had delayed video/remix releases and then after a soft "download my new tune" we hear nothing of it), really poor single choices and videos with no replay value (among other things). A good budget combined with a video with good replay value would do wonders (look at the AIWFCIY 2019 and OS videos). A good choice of singles and strategical promotions is mandatory. We live in a world where everyone has a nano-second memory, you have to keep reminding them (example engage tiktok influencers for the song to go viral). There's just so much she can do. And an easy one would be just to get Drake haha. I mean she definitely got Ariana for some buzz, just get Drake and seal the deal. (Monday 28 December 2020; 08:09)

Re: Ryan and Kelly show, thank you, next (97,028) (97,042) by Nikki from usa Mariah has been going on tour after tour. She's been doing so since 2015 when she first started her Vegas and Christmas residencies. She went on a world tour in 2016 along with Vegas. She also did a tour with Lionel Richie. Her very last Vegas run was this February and it sold at 96%. That's why they keep giving her more deals. She dropped "With You" at the AMA's and then went to tour Asia for a month before she came back to promote Caution. Then, off for her Christmas tour. Then, the Caution World Tour before heading back to her Vegas residency and then another Christmas. She signed a touring contract with Live Nation in 2018, so she'll be touring well into the 2020's after covid. (Monday 28 December 2020; 07:03)

Re: Tokyo Dome concert (97,038) (97,041) by Bobby A from United States Awesome. I just checked it out and you can livestream shows on 3sat's website. They have a huge concert lineup that day including Chaka Khan, Stevie Nicks, Christina Aguilera, and Prince. Thank you for the information. (Monday 28 December 2020; 00:34)

Re: Chick album in 2021? (97,039) (97,040) by TJ from Norway We can only hope. (Sunday 27 December 2020; 18:45)

Chick album in 2021? (97,039) by Geri551 from UK After attracting significant buzz, it all went silent on Chick. I am assuming (well hoping) that this was because the Christmas season was approaching but I hope the project hasn't just been shelved or forgotten about. Do you think we will be getting the Mariah version of the Chick album? It would be lunacy for her not to release this - the news that Mariah had recorded an alternative rock album attracted more interest in her music (aside from Christmas) than we've seen for a decade. I really like the album and would love to hear Mariah's lead vocals. (Sunday 27 December 2020; 14:25)

Tokyo Dome concert (97,038) by TJ from Norway The concert is going to be aired on December 31 on what I believe is a German channel called 3sat. Just wanted to spread the word. (Sunday 27 December 2020; 10:37)
