Re: WBT Mimi's Late Night Valentine's Mix (extended) (97,381) (97,387) by Andrew from the United Kingdom It’s okay. I find it quite unsettling. The music lends itself to lounge relaxation but her voice jumping from low scratch to belt to soft head to high whistle every other line puts me on edge. But I can see why the extended mix is liked. In other news, Mariah has musicians with her? I may be wrong but until recently she did not. If this is a new turn of events they are likely with her to record new material, one would think.

Re: Last Night a DJ Saved My Life - songs about Derek (97,382) (97,386) by Andrew from the United Kingdom Derek Jeter being the DJ in Last Night a DJ Saved My Life is brilliant fan theory haha. Maybe that's why she chose it. (Wednesday 17 February 2021; 14:20)

You’re Mine late Night Valentine Mix (97,385) by T from USA You're Mine Eternal would sound amazing with a mini late night Valentine mix. Wasn't there an extended version originally? That song would sound so groovy and fresh in this this atmosphere. (Wednesday 17 February 2021; 14:03)

Mimi's mix WBT (97,384) by Brad from USA The 7 minute version is life. Thanks for this delectable treat, MC. It's wondrous. Everyone be safe and well. Wear 2 masks. (Wednesday 17 February 2021; 07:24)

Re: WBT Mimi's Late Night Valentine's Mix (extended) (97,381) (97,383) by Bobby A from United States I just heard it. The improvising is amazing. Mimi reminds [me] of Phyllis Hyman in 1987. (Wednesday 17 February 2021; 02:41)

WBT Mimi's Late Night Valentine's Mix (extended) (97,381) by this_is_qhm from the Philippines Best re-working of a track she's done in over a decade, since the leaked H.A.T.E.U. remix that incorporated My Boo. (Wednesday 17 February 2021; 01:15)

Re: Charmbracelet era (97,376) (97,379) by Stacey from USA CB was my first MC concert. She came through So Cal once but I wasn't able to go. Then she announced more tour dates and I grabbed a ticket for the final concert of the tour right before Christmas. 15 rows back, dead center. It was so cool. She sounded amazing. I'll never forget it. (Tuesday 16 February 2021; 19:38)

Re: "H.A.T.E.U. (Stripped)" (97,377) (97,378) by John john from UK I regard this song as one of her best. Love this stripped version. (Tuesday 16 February 2021; 19:07)

"H.A.T.E.U. (Stripped)" (97,377) by Billy from Greece So good. (Tuesday 16 February 2021; 16:22)

Re: Charmbracelet era (97,357) (97,376) by Mara from United States I totally 100% agree. Charmbracelet was the first tour I was able to see Mariah perform live during and the live vocals made all the CB songs sound so much better. I believe it was during a time when there were reports that Mariah recorded them in the whisper register to make it easier to perform them live and boy did she succeed. The live versions were so much better. My dream to this day is to hear Through The Rain recorded in full voice. Either way it's so beautiful but I'd love a real recording of it in full vocals. Side note though, the Valentine's special of WBT and her look was so beyond amazing. The whole thing worked and was so organic and just "different" for Mariah. It's almost like she is setting us up for something. The dark hair, the all black. I loved everything. Her arrangement of the song with the vocals were so fresh and once again I wouldn't be surprised if other artists follow in her footsteps and revisit their past hits and re-do them so to speak. Is it me or did she look so relaxed youthful with her moves and singing style. I loved it. Everything about it. I also loved the snippet on her cookie promo of "My Funny Valentine". I will forever be an advocate for an all Jazz MC album. I really wish she would consider doing one. (Monday 15 February 2021; 20:06)

Re: Valentines mix (97,374) (97,375) by Andrew from the United Kingdom Good you enjoyed it. Hold on a second, though: it is lipped the whole way through. Do we really get excited because pre-recorded, engineered vocals sound good? Sets the bar quite low, perhaps. (Monday 15 February 2021; 15:00)

Re: Valentines mix (97,370) (97,374) by Aliya from Canada It's the best performance she has done in a long, long time. I'm blown away. Wow, quarantine really did help repair her voice. It's incredible, and I love to see that confidence in her. I'm going to show this performance to literally everyone I know. (Monday 15 February 2021; 04:09)

Re: Raindream? (97,362) (97,373) by Andrew from the United Kingdom She done already done had herses. Gurl, this show is brilliant, m'kay. This is making lockdown funny and fun. I'm currently caught up with RuPaul's Drag Race US and UK so I'm bingeing the latest Allstars and there's a queen called Mariah who literally as I'm watching on Netflix just got voted off as I'm typing this. It is quite really bizarre watching someone called Mariah that isn't Mariah Carey. It's as bizarre as a drag queen or anybody calling themselves Madonna or Cher. Mariah is a one word, one person name. That being said I thought Mariah Paris Balenciaga was pretty shite and Shea Coulee has to win. But whatever happens, the Cracker needs to go.

Re: Happy Valentines Day (97,371) (97,372) by Tijl from Belgium That message was full of spelling mistakes. Splashes dahling. Oh dear. (Sunday 14 February 2021; 15:16)

Happy Valentines Day (97,371) by Tijl from Belgium Best to all of the Lambily. Watching "The Adventures of Mimi" dvd to celebrate. I hust love that era. She was in top of the world. Stay safe everyone. (Sunday 14 February 2021; 13:27)

Valentines mix (97,370) by We are lambily from USA Wow, I'm in completely awe of Mariah, that performance is one of my faves. I literally can't stop replaying it. The arrangement, the vocals, the agility, the groovy and jazzy feeling, this type of setting does wonder to her voice. The fact that she did the first verse better than 05 too and the second verse didn't get enough praise for me. I hope we get more of these moments. Don't know if you have heard of the tiny desk home concert "Start with Jazmine Sullivan" it would be perfect for Mariah. Mariah is without no doubt the most talented artist ever. Her confidence is growing and she is getting comfortable with her voice again. This new era will be everything. (Sunday 14 February 2021; 12:55)

Re: Raindream? (97,365) (97,369) by Stacey from USA Exactly. She looked amazing. Mature yet fierce. (Sunday 14 February 2021; 03:53)

Re: Raindream? (97,363) (97,368) by Bobby A from United States I enjoyed the whole performance and ensemble. Did you see her confident dance moves and nods to the band members? We are in for new era soon. Oh, well maybe next year. Lol. Hopefully Angels Advocate is coming this month for MC30. (Saturday 13 February 2021; 20:52)

Re: Mimi's Late Night Valentine's Mix (97,349) (97,367) by Terna from Nigeria Exactly, it's giving me this vintage 70's soul sound like she did at the BET awards performance with the white dress, but taking it up a notch, incorporating contemporary elements like that drum machine that goes hard on the chugging breakdown mid song. Just well put together and executed. Someone on twitter was like "her new era is coming". Lol. (Saturday 13 February 2021; 19:34)

Re: Charmbracelet era (97,361) (97,366) by LoverboyFirecracker from Canada I totally agree. "Bringin' on the heartbreak" was amazing live. I love how they made it so much longer. That tour was my favourite from hers. (Saturday 13 February 2021; 19:01)

Re: Raindream? (97,359) (97,365) by Bill from the UK The best she's looked in decades. Mariah, whatever you did, keep doing it. (Saturday 13 February 2021; 17:39)

Re: Raindream? (97,363) (97,364) by MusicfanJ from Germany "The whole package screamed artist. In a way that she hasn't done in a long long time." Absolutely agree. It is really a nice, positive surprise. The look and the WBT version with the band makes "appetite" for more. (Saturday 13 February 2021; 17:26)

Re: Raindream? (97,359) (97,363) by T from USA This should be Mariah's image for the next album/era. Her hair was perfect, the best color in years. Her outfit was serious yet contemporary. The whole package screamed artist. In a way that she hasn't done in a long long time. He voice was great. The mood was there, the attitude was there, it seemed like the Mimi if she would've continued with The Emancipation Of Mimi era all this time or even the Mariah from just after MTV's unplugged but all these years later. I'm hearing the general public even commenting like they never have before. This is a grown mature artist. This is Mariah Carey.  (Saturday 13 February 2021; 14:26)
