8th Grade (94,247) by Jeff from USA
It was my favorite song from Caution when the album came out and it still is today. Mariah at her best.

Skydiving (94,246) by enwar00 from usa
What the heck, I don't know if I've even heard this song. Is it good? What does it sound like? What album was it supposed to be on, E=MC2? Does anyone have a link to post here? I can't find it.

She will never tell what that song is really about. But unearthly for a very sad moment in time.

Re: 8th Grade (94,239) (94,244) by Edouard from France
One of my instant favs on Caution if not my fav. I believe the song is about her relationship with Packer and how it echoed the childish type of relationships you tend to put on a pedestal when you're young, when you're in 8th grade. Genius lyrics.

Re: 8th Grade (94,239) (94,243) by Licia from USA
This is one of the 3 songs from Caution I still listen to. It gets played daily. Everything is on point from the vocals to the production.

The only thing I don't like is that I really don't understand how the lyrics correlate with the title of the song. I believe she tried to explain it in an interview, but I still didn't get it. I t look over that little blip though because it's a great song regardless.

This song is still a favorite of mine, still enjoying the Caution album as if it was released just recently.

Re: MIAMTEC platinum edition (94,237) (94,240) by Bill from the UK
Skydiving is great, but I wish Almost Home made it onto MIAM.

8th Grade (94,239) by darrian liu from taiwan
Can I just say how much Mariah struck gold with this song? Ever since Caution's release, it never left my regular playlists on Spotify. The melody is beautiful, Timbaland's production is impeccable, and Mariah's vocal performance is subtle, yet still packs a punch. I love the classic Mariah sound it has infused with lil twists here and there, truly one of Caution's highlights.

It takes only two spins to get one through a lockdown.

MIAMTEC platinum edition (94,237) by T from USA
If only she would've saved Timbaland's produced "Skydiving" for that album (like she did Betcha and It's a Wrap). Imagine this tracklist:

1. Skydiving (ft. Drake)
2. Cry
3. Faded
4. Dedicated (ft. Nas)
5. #Beautiful (ft. Miguel)
6. Make It Look Good
7. You're Mine
8. You Don't Know What To Do
9. Supernatural
10. Meteorite
11. Camouflage
12. The Art Of Letting Go

Re: TESMIAM (?) anniversary (94,234) (94,236) by Bill from the UK
Not as long as Charmbracelet. Sometimes it feels like that album has a run time clocking in at four weeks.

Re: MIAM (94,231) (94,235) by Tijl from Belgium
TAOLG is one of my all time favourite MC tracks. There is a bite and realness to it that surpasses and outshines the vocal gymnastics of her early years. I like when it Mariah gets real as with "Side Effects" lyrics for example.

Re: TESMIAM (?) anniversary (94,228) (94,234) by Tijl from Belgium
That would have been a solid album. I feel MIAMTEC is sooo long.

Re: TESMIAM (?) anniversary (94,229) (94,233) by Tijl from Belgium
Nothing of the kind. Too much bad news paralyzed my brain.

Re: MIAM (94,231) (94,232) by Bobby A from United States
Wal-Mart leaked the title.

Re: MIAM (94,230) (94,231) by The Real Deal from USA
One of my top five favorite Mariah albums of all time. It was actually originally titled The Art Of Letting Go and then changed after the leak of the album's artwork was made, which I believe ended up becoming the single cover art for The Art of Letting Go.

MIAM (94,230) by Gee from U.S.A. (New York City)
This album was definitely around a time MC was going through changes her last album on Def Jam, and she was in the process of going through a divorce. Even though I believe she was in the best emotionally she pulled through and created a solid body of work. I believe she should have named the album "The art of letting go" for obvious reasons, and the final track listing should have been 10-12 tracks.

Re: TESMIAM (?) anniversary (94,226) (94,229) by Edward from USA
Thank God you let Eric know that. For a moment I thought you were on crack. Get better.

Re: TESMIAM (?) anniversary (94,225) (94,228) by Edward from USA
Are you referring to "Super Creepy"? So adorable. MIAMTEC should've been a nice 10-track album.

1. Cry.
2. Dedicated
3. #Beautiful
4. Thirsty
5. Make It Look Good
6. You're Mine (Eternal)
7. You Don't Know What to Do
8. Meteorite
9. Camouflage
10. The Art of Letting Go

We all make mistakes on here. Thanks for sharing. Get better soon. I still want it on vinyl.

Re: TESMIAM (?) anniversary (94,225) (94,226) by Tijl from Belgium
I clearly messed up there. Webmaster, I obviously intended to write MIAMTEC. A bit under the weather over here.

TESMIAM (?) anniversary (94,225) by Tijl from Belgium
The97 featured this article on their website. A release I anticipated immensely at the time but left me somewhat underwhelmed to be honest. The album featured a few great songs but it was messy and too lengthy. I still love #Beautiful, You Don't Know What To Do, Dedicated and You're Mine especially but towards the later songs the album starts to bore me. Not to mention that cringeworthy song with Roc and Roe.
