Caution (92,239) by Gee from U.S.A. (New York City) The Caution era was the era that was created by Mariah and her team to repair her image after the nightmare era, and the mismanagement of the MIAM era before that woman and company came along. This era upcoming will be in the right order because RocNation is all about being professional, and operating with integrity. All that needs to be done is the music has to be top notch and Mariah has to be willing to commit herself into making a timeless era that this new generation, and fans alike will remember.

Re: DVD compilation of Mariah's SNL performances (92,231) (92,238) by Rashidi Rahim Rick from Malaysia Even during E=MC2 era, M was not scheduled to perform at SNL. It was a last minute thing where she replaced Janet Jackson who was scheduled to perform but was fallen sick. Maybe the live tv performance makes her nervous and that's why she prefers a tv show where you can pre-tape the performance. (Thursday 9 January 2020; 00:49)

Re: Vision of Love at NARM (92,236) (92,237) by Will from Australia Thanks for sharing Bill. I'd never seen that before. I love when she looks at the background singers during the bridge to kinda say where the heck are you, I think they missed a line or two and the cute laugh from Mariah at the end when one of the backups says "sing it" should be iconic.

Vision of Love at NARM (92,236) by Bill from the UK Beautiful. (Wednesday 8 January 2020; 22:29)

Madonna vs. Mariah (92,235) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway I have searched all the most popular songs from both Madonna and Mariah on YouTube, and surprisingly Madonna has few views compared to Madonna. Almost all of the most popular songs of Mariah has significantly more views than Madonna's most popular songs. On Facebook Mariah has more likes, and Mariah has more followers on Instagram than Madonna. Still Madonna is treated as the ultimate female artist of the last decades by the press. I have read some articles about how gen z look at Madonna as a toxic person and Mariah is treated as an internet delight. The press might favourize Madonna, but the numbers are clear, Mariah is on top (Wednesday 8 January 2020; 22:08)

Re: Yummy vs. One Mo Gen (92,222) (92,234) by B from USA It does. I think One Mo' Gen and Stay Long Love You, and Caution could've been hits but Mariah's A&R person went with the With You which is formulaic and was never going to crossover. Her A&R people need to stop trying to relieve the splendor of WBT and release something fresh and exciting. She looks amazing and if she rehires her former personal trainer Patricia Gay, the woman responsible for Mariah's 2008/E=MC2 body. (Wednesday 8 January 2020; 21:15)

Re: Carey struggling to sell tickets in Vegas (92,223) (92,233) by B from USA It's the second time they've published that story. All the author did was change the dates. (Wednesday 8 January 2020; 21:03)

Caution (92,232) by B from USA Has re-entered Billboard's R&B Album Sales chart this week at #25. it's the album's 47th week on the chart. (Wednesday 8 January 2020; 20:49)

Re: DVD compilation of Mariah's SNL performances (92,221) (92,231) by 90sMariah from SG I wonder why she didn't return to SNL from 1992 to 1996? Did she not get invited to perform during that period? Or maybe she's too big for the show (she was in her peak around the aforementioned years)? (Wednesday 8 January 2020; 18:23)

Re: Next album/era (92,226) (92,230) by Billy from Greece I second that, enwar. (Wednesday 8 January 2020; 17:37)

Re: Televised performances (92,219) (92,229) by MusicfanJ from Germany How I love the "Homecoming Special". She seemed to have so much fun plus she looked stunning and sounded great. The high school kids were also really cool and her old classmate Chuck. I can't tell how often I have watched the special, one of the bests. (Wednesday 8 January 2020; 17:19)

Re: Televised performances (92,225) (92,228) by Bill from the UK Nothing like a good list. (Wednesday 8 January 2020; 12:18)

Thanks for responses (92,227) by Dove from United States I sometimes forget about songs and performances and like to be reminded periodically. (Wednesday 8 January 2020; 10:48)

Re: Next album/era (92,216) (92,226) by enwar00 from usa Terna I agree with you, I'd rather it be solo if it were to even ever happen. Not so much because of the haters, more so that I'd rather just hear Mimi. I personally think her duet versions of solo songs and even cut and paste raps added on are subpar, such as Against All Odds, IBLYLT, A No No, even When Christmas Comes and Whenever You Call, but especially Angels Cry. And don't even get (caps) me started on those MIAMTEC rejects from Angels Advocate. I've listened to them once maybe. So glad that project was shelved. I would have rather heard the Jump Smokers remix album over that genericness. So I vote no to a duets album. I can't be the only one. Rant over. (Wednesday 8 January 2020; 06:14)

Re: Televised performances (92,215) (92,225) by enwar00 from usa Lists, lists, let there be lists. (Wednesday 8 January 2020; 06:01)

Re: Up out my face (92,209) (92,224) by Licia from USA I agree that was the last well put together video. It was fun and and she was funny (y'all know I love when she brings on the humor). The fact that it really did look like a Target commercial makes it even more hilarious to me. I also agree that she really went outside of her comfort zone and I'm glad she took the risk because she made a great video. (Wednesday 8 January 2020; 05:17)

Re: Carey struggling to sell tickets in Vegas (92,223) by Nikki from usa Radar Online is owned by the National Enquirer. This is tired and old. Mariah's residency is still a month and a half away. She has consistently sold out or close to it days before the performance. Which is common for Vegas residencies. This isn't news, this is exaggerating and jumping the gun. Again. All residencies and even major tours have discount tickets available at those sites. They all have deals with Live Nation that offer it. In fact, it's especially common place for all summer shows. Which begs the question, why is Mariah being specifically targeted for this? I don't believe this crap anymore. A few years ago, one of these sites reported Mariah's tour was "flopping" and named two dates claiming it didn't sell well. They stated her team was getting people off the streets to see her show for free to make it look good. Then, I looked at the actual numbers for those dates at the box office. Guess what? The first one had sold out at 92% while the second was sold out entirely. Take gossip with a grain of salt. If Mariah wasn't selling than they wouldn't keep offering her more residencies.

Yummy vs. One Mo Gen (92,222) by Bobby A from United States Is it just me but the underlying melody of Yummy sounds like One Mo Gen. It was co written by Poo Bear. Radio is playing it like crazy. (Wednesday 8 January 2020; 02:04)

DVD compilation of Mariah's SNL performances (92,221) by Rashidi Rahim Rick from Malaysia Mariah always gives her best when it comes to SNL performances. Her performance of My All was the only one that came close to the studio version. She did not dodge any notes on that song. Even for Touch My Body she did not lipsync the climax as she always does in every other performance of that song. Her label or SNL itself should compile all her performances and release it on dvd or online. Below are the songs that she performed live on that show: 1. Vision of Love (October 1990) 2. Vanishing (October 1990) 3. Can't Let Go (November 1991) 4. If It's Over (November 1991) 5. Butterfly (November 1997) 6. My All (November 1997) 7. Touch My Body (March 2008) 8. Migrate (March 2008) (Wednesday 8 January 2020; 01:21)

UOMF (92,220) by Jeff from USA I secretly love this song, especially the remix with NM. The video is so over the top and I laugh every time I hear the marching band. Funniest video since TMB. (Tuesday 7 January 2020; 22:02)

Re: Televised performances (92,219) by Jeff from USA This may not exactly count as a "televised performance", but can we treat it like a holiday? I loved the Homecoming Special where she went back to her old high school. I loved her singing "Memories" as she walked the halls. (Tuesday 7 January 2020; 21:59)

Random songs (92,218) by Will from Australia I woke up this morning with "I'll just sit right here and sing that good old school shit to you, I won't fool you, I won't make you be my own, And oh baby you know..." I knew immediately it was obviously Mariah and from MIAMTEC but will admit the songs name didn't come to me straight away. I just love how she can create that kind of magic, not the No.1s or other hits, but just great album cuts like Dedicated that resonates. (Tuesday 7 January 2020; 21:47)

Re: Televised performances (92,214) (92,217) by Terna from Nigeria Speaking of televised performances, what is it about the "We Belong Together" performance from Jey Leno in 2005 (wrap around blue dress) that gets YouTube all rilled up that they delete it as soon as you've uploaded it, while sending you a warning to desist or get your account terminated. I have that particular performance and so I tried uploading it and the action was immediate. Other users got the same feedback as well. Is it a copyright thingy? (Tuesday 7 January 2020; 19:08)

Re: Next album/era (92,207) (92,216) by Terna from Nigeria Contrary to popular belief, I don't want Mariah to release her next number 1 featuring Bruno nor Drake, or any other artist for that matter. I want her to hit number 1 by herself. That makes it more genuine and the trolls cannot attribute it to the featured act. She's still got it and can still churn out a massive hit. And I believe the lambs both old and new will support her with streaming and radio, Vevo etc. (Tuesday 7 January 2020; 18:55)
