Re: Save The Day music video (95,540) (95,555) by Andrew from the United Kingdom
Save The Day video is the perfect video to accompany Save The Day song. They are both completely shit and an embarrassment for an international superstar. O Mariah. What happened to your talent?

Re: Every song (95,527) (95,554) by Andrew from the United Kingdom
"I've decided at one point I will listen to every single song Mariah has recorded (even the shit ones)."

So the 90's, 00's (and even the 2010's).

Re: Save The Day video (95,521) (95,553) by Andrew from the United Kingdom
Back up. Stop emasculating Bryan. It is not his place to dictate to Mariah because he has a Y chromosome. Were it so that he was the rich and famous one and she the employee/partner she would not be mocked for following the talent's wishes.

A tad sexist. Woke, are we?

Re: Tokyo Dome concert (95,551) (95,552) by Bill from the UK
Far be for me to rain on the parade, but the Tokyo Dome concert is pretty much the album versions of the songs lowered a couple of semitones and lip synced. Without You, Forever, Always Be My Baby, One Sweet Day etc. This is why I would have rather one of the European legs be released on audio instead. But beggars can't be choosers as they say.

Re: Tokyo Dome concert (95,544) (95,551) by TJ from Norway
She should release more concerts on DVD, CD or just digital, and yes, this is one hell of a performance. I just wait for the CB concert from Paris. What a great night that she did tape.

Re: Bill, in the backseat (95,549) (95,550) by Bill from the UK
Okay yes you're right. How could I forget about The Roof. It is quite possibly her best ever video in fact. I stand corrected.

Bill, in the backseat (95,549) by Jeff from USA
Bill, I have to respectfully disagree with you on Emotions being the only "backseat shots" worth watching. What about those gorgeous shots in The Roof?

Re: Glitter week (95,541) (95,548) by Will from England
Might have got no new EP's but we did get all of her albums remastered on vinyl. Hardly nothing.

TMOM unboxing (95,547) by Bill from the UK
Mariah has uploaded a video of her unboxing the memoir. Love the back image and wish that had been the front picture.

The B sides (95,546) by Will from Australia
I'm actually stoked to have Slipping Away and Everything Fades Away, they're two of my favourite Mariah songs so to be finally able to add to my hundred different playlists is a dream. I have the actual single of Dreamlover that has DYTOM and I've never liked it so I could do without that on the album.

I am surprised that nobody here is calling out the inclusion of Close My Eyes (2020), that's more of an unnecessary addition and to be honest is on there for herself and not the fans.

Re: Glitter week (95,541) (95,545) by Jamie from UK
I'm presuming out of respect for 911 anniversary she didn't realise any MC30 EP's this week. Wonder what we will get this week.

Re: Tokyo Dome concert (95,543) (95,544) by Aliya from Canada
It's also one of her greatest concerts ever vocally.

Tokyo Dome concert (95,543) by Gee from U.S.A. (New York City)
I think the reason Mariah decided to add the Daydream Tokyo Dome concert to the rarities is because it is 25th anniversary of the Daydream album/era and she wanted the fans to celebrate two different anniversaries all at the same time, and she doesn't have to worry about trying to create another special moment with the holiday season soon approaching and we know MC and the holiday season work together hand, and hand. Even though a [Daydream] celebration would have been great. But overall I am happy with MC given us this year to celebrate her career.

Here We Go Round Again (95,542) by Bobby A from United States
I wish I understood
Why I can't get over you at all
But you push me to the side
And I come a running when you call (come a running)
You step outside of my life
And you leave me waiting for a sign (waiting for a sign)
- Lyrics: Mariah Carey
This is why MC is a brilliant songwriter. Two more weeks Lambs until we can have HWGRA on repeat.

Glitter week (95,541) by CMC from NY,NY
We kind of got nothing this week in regards to EP's being released on Fridays for the era's. We got Save The Day video on a Saturday - don't really think that counts though. Does anyone remember back early summer Kristofer her makeup artist posted to his story, "working on something special" and it was Glitter related, a new current pitot of 80's makeup he did on Mariah? That was the week of Glitter announced to streaming services. Then we got everything related to the anniversary and any more Glitter promo postponed because of the many events of the early summer. Being that she seems to have recorded so much for Glitter that's unreleased I wonder if we are getting a special Glitter EP, with more unreleased tracks, remixes. Maybe she's dropping it as more of a surprise. One can dream.

Save The Day music video (95,540) by Malcolm from Asia
In all honesty, I don't hate the video because I didn't expect that we will get it nor expect that it'll be a big budget one since it's a partnership with US Open Tennis Championships, kind of similar for what she did with 100%. I just like it for what it is especially I think this is the first for a long time that she perfected the lip syncing for a music video lol, it's seamless I love it and hey this is more well directed and edited compared to I Don't, that's absurd.

Re: The Rarities tracklisting (95,539) by Anonymous from United States
I'm a little disappointed that we didn't get more unreleased material from the 1997-2005 period and that b-sides like "Everything Fades Away", "Do You Think of Me", and "Slipping Away" took up space that could have gone to completely new material. They are great songs, but most fans already know them. I would have been happy to have them released on digital EPs as part of #MC30.

Surely "Butterfly"/"Rainbow" had more outtakes? And she was working on "Glitter" for four years, so there has to be more music from that project. I would not have minded hearing a recording of (adult) Mariah singing that song "Billie's Blues (Turn You Loose)" that was used in the movie during that scene with Billie Frank and her mother. Didn't she also record something with Prince for the film?

And I'm not sure that the Live at Tokyo Dome disc is really necessary. I'd rather have audio or video from the Rainbow or Charmbracelet tours if we are getting tour footage/audio. Those tours were much more interesting than the Daydream tour.

If she was planning to do a two-disc collection, I would rather have two discs of rarities/b-sides rather than one disc of rarities/b-sides and one disc of concert audio (from a concert most fans already know well).

With all of that said, I'm very interested to hear the original recording of "Loverboy" as well as "Here We Go Around Again" and "One Night". Fingers crossed that she is planning another collection like this because this is definitely only a fraction of her rare/unreleased material.

Re: Save the Day (95,531) (95,538) by MusicfanJ from Germany
I think the video is okay. Of course no art, but it's not like "I don't" at all luckily. MC looks good and the car. Haha. The mixing with tennis and the pandemic is a bit strange. But hey it's not that bad.

Without You (95,537) by MusicfanJ from Germany
Hi all, I know there are more interesting things going on right now with all the releases but I just wanted to share this little "story". I watched a show called the best love songs of the 90ies. Like every time Mariah was on it, number 7 or 8. What was a surprise that everyone (German actors and other celebreties) were talking only positive about Mariah. One said she loves her athletic singing with emotions that speaks to everybody, the actor said he has loved her voice since the first listen. That's how it looks.

Re: Through The Rain cover (95,532) (95,536) by Bill from the UK
This is almost as terrible as the So So Def Remix of Say Somethin'. Anyone know who was featured on that?

Calvin Harris would make this go #1 and be her 20th.

I read the comment made by Eric then listened to 10 seconds of the song, I was reduced to tears of laughter. Thanks for the warning.

Re: Here We Go Around Again (95,530) (95,533) by Bobby A from United States
Wow. I love it. I can't wait to play The Rarities on my birthday trip to Virginia in late October. It is nice to [hear] how her vocals sound so effortlessly. Her enunciation of each word is [unparalleled] to other singers. I am ordering my vinyls Monday night. I have already ordered the Japan edition of The Rarities and 2 copies of Mariah Carey from an indie record store in the Atlanta area and the Wal-Mart exclusive.

A cover of Through The Rain by a man. Acoustic. [Warning: This is really really awful.]

Re: Save the Day (95,525) (95,531) by this_is_qhm from the Philippines
Strongly agree. I mean it's Mariah, so to some level we knew the vanity shot montage was coming, but this is still weird and awkward, even by her standards. The worst part is that the song's lyrics paint a much better visual than the video does, and for this one, she definitely should have gone the obvious route. Whatever happened to interspersing it with videos of our frontliners instead as a tribute to them? It's not innovative, but it would make much more sense and not leave viewers wondering what the hell they just watched.

Also, isn't it just sad that the last real video that had an interesting concept, was fun, and at least had Mariah step away a bit from her comfort zone and be a little less serious was Up Out My Face from a full decade ago? Since then the desperation to cling to the sex symbol persona has been top priority to be on full display that we have already come to expect it every single time she releases a video.
