Merry Christmas 30 (107,493) by Jamie from UK
I'm not on X but glad they altered the eyes. I can't believe they allowed that mistake. Yeah I agree they should have been done in a more natural setting like before. These are far too photoshopped for me.

Merry Christmas 30 (107,492) by Libra Lamb from USA
Not the cross eyed Mariah. I think what I love about the original single cover is that it's not perfect hair or lighting and definitely not in the studio. I even love that her hair is on her face and there's freaking snow falling. Where's that organic energy anymore? Not trying to be negative because I'm grateful for any new releases. Having said all that, I think she looks picture perfect. Always a beauty. Always a joy to listen to. Now I can't wait to start playing Christmas music.

Mine Again (107,491) by T from USA
Mine Again would've been the perfect song to have done at the 50th Anniversary of the AMA's. It's so retro and encapsulates the return of the voice perfectly. It represents TEOM in my opinion. Just picture the first few lines in front of that live audience. That old school sound would've reminded everyone just who Mimi is and would've set her up nicely for her next era with Anderson Paak. Oh well.

Look again on X. She doesn't look cross eyed anymore. Her team edited the cover. I think MC looks gorgeous on the covers.

Just seen Mariah has posted about two physical singles on AIWFCIY with two new covers. The first one is cute but the second one she looks cross eyed. Not sure I’ll be buying these to be honest. I hope we get more surprises for MC30.

AMAs performance (107,487) by Edward from USA
Performances like this are usually recorded multiple times from different angles, which can sometimes give the impression that playback was used. For instance, the VH1 duet of "With You I'm Born Again" with John Legend was taped 3 times, I know because I was in the audience. The woman performed one song, but she delivered it live. Credit where credit is due.

AMAs performance (107,483) by Xavier mariohmix from Spain
Guys and girls, I don't wanna spoil the moment, but the performance is playback from beginning to end. Just like The Celebration of Mimi in Vegas (except for a couple of adlibs here and there). I'm afraid MC is not singing live again (at least for a while). The quality of her voice has worsened considerably in the past couple years, and live on stage is where she feels most stressed and insecure about it. So now she just plays it safe by rerecording everything in her current voice and having improved the lipping technique. At least we can enjoy lots of new vocals recorded in a studio. For what it's worth, I think I'm starting to be finally at peace with this.

Why WBT again? (107,482) by jaker20 from US
I wish she had done a deeper cut from TEOM, that would make the gp think in its 20th anniversary that the album is a timeless classic full of bops.

With that being said, it's amazing to see the new gen really feeling it. WB is a timeless pop song. It's amazing that it was created fairly quickly. She also looks great, which I think is part of the song's visuals.

Which makes me think that maybe her "Believe" is just around the corner, and with the right song, it's going to come out of nowhere with a bang like Cher did.

Robert Anthony (107,481) by Zachariah from Croatia
I don't think I was uncivilized or disrespectful towards Mariah. Actually I know I wasn't. I just answered to his question why are we, it this case, me, so quiet lately on this messageboard.

I have a right to my own opinion and it is what it is. Some people have a lot emotions and love reviving old things. Is it annoying for me to see that? Very. That is why I was quiet.

Am I enjoying that everyone is writing about perfect AMA's performance where the love from crowd was mesmerizing? Very.

"I might be wrong but are you imitating the way Robert Anthony talks?"

I simply shared my opinion on the performance, and it wasn't based on any template or influenced by Robert-Anthony's style of posting.

Agreed. I've watched the performance a lot over the past couple of days. The whole performance from the set to the arrangement to MC's appearance looked planned out. The whole thing came together.

It was really enjoyable. She looked stunning (I love classic Mariah meets Hollywood diva and Charmbracelet) plus she sounded really good and prepared. That's all a longtime fan heart wants to see. The stage with the big M and the band was also fantastic.

Robert Anthony (107,475) by David from USA
I come on this board often; I comment very rarely. When I do comment, it's usually to note the negativity and nastiness of Mariah's "fans" here. Robert is always positive and civil - and he's respectful to Mariah even when perhaps giving constructive criticism. We could all learn from him and, as far as his frequent posts, this board would be dead without him.

AMAs (107,474) by Bobby A from United States
First, MC sounded and looked amazing last night. Second, I am not going anywhere anytime soon. However, I am going to scale back my posts until another fabulous Mimi moment like last night brings us back to get together in delight. I was clinging to MC's every note last night. I even heard those subtle transition notes on the second verse.

AMAs (107,473) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter
I rewatched the performance multiple times and it just warms my heart to see Mariah slowly but surely gaining her confidence back. I also loved the different arrangements she did in some parts of the song. How is this song almost 2 decades old but still gives people goosebumps? What a modern classic. Mariah looked like a true glamorous Hollywood diva. I'm so happy for her. She's been going through such a difficult time in the past few months and the fact that she's finding peace in her music, performance and fans is amazing to see. Not to mention the GP can't seem to get enough of her. She'll truly always be a queen.

The mike was definitely on. We have to give her credit for this performance. If you look closely, paying attention to her mouth, neck and demeanor, you can tell when she's lipping. To be honest, judging by recent performances, I thought it would be more of the same, but I'm glad to have been proven wrong. I'm a happy for her.

I really enjoyed this performance. The audience went crazy and showed her respect and lots of love. She should be very happy and proud with what she did.
