Re: Pure sales (91,403) (91,409) by TJ from Norway That's what I'm thinking too. She was selling like crazy in that period. Didn't she? (Wednesday 20 November 2019; 18:06)

How the mighty have fallen (91,408) by Terna from Nigeria Going through the Grammys nominations list, I just felt like I was going through nominations for a much lesser award like Teen Choice Awards. Lol. It doesn't feel serious at all. Where's the quality? The serious artists and the obscure ones who are really good but don't get the platform. And as usual our chanteuse was paid dust, not like she was checking for them anyways. She'll "prolly" go bowling. (Wednesday 20 November 2019; 16:40)

Snubbed again (91,407) by Nicole from US Caution was hailed by critics as return to form. It was well-received by critics, one of her best. And yet, these Grammy people did not give a single nomination. They now decided on who's in and current. What a joke. Please get your 19th number one Mariah. Your legacy will surely live on.

Re: Grammy Award nominations (91,397) (91,406) by SM from Citizen of the World I am shocked at the list of nominations, I don't even know more than half of them. (Wednesday 20 November 2019; 15:08)

Grammy nominations (91,405) by Chicago Lamb from USA Very sad Mariah wasn't recognized this year. Caution is a great album, With You is a beautifully crafted song. I'm a little disappointed but the universe can make up for it with AIWFC #1. (Wednesday 20 November 2019; 14:57)

Re: Grammy Award nominations (91,397) (91,404) by Salmon skin roll from Unagi I'll bet all the money in my pocket against all the money in your pocket that the only Grammy nomination she gets is when she has grandchildren and Dem Grandkids nominate her for Grammy of the Year. (Wednesday 20 November 2019; 03:44)

Re: Pure sales (91,395) (91,403) by Salmon skin roll from Unagi That makes sense. So it's done quarterly. Cool. So according to this Mariah only got to 1 million per quarter by the end of 1993. That makes no sense. Am I missing something again? (Wednesday 20 November 2019; 03:41)

Pure sales (91,402) by Nikki from usa Always interesting, but at the end of the day we're not talking sales, we're talking certifications which are paid for by record companies. Literally. The whole reason systems like Soundscan were invented were due to number gouging for the sake of PR. Many earlier artists numbers were over certified. Sony didn't bother with certification for MC outside the US and Japan. Yet, she was announced as a billion dollar seller in all of Asia. Mariah's main influence is in the US which is also where the majority of her promo went. (Wednesday 20 November 2019; 02:35)

Re: AIWFIY Hot 100 Chart entry last year (91,396) (91,401) by Deedre aka MiTodoChop @HBF from Canada If anything deserves to be her 19th #1 it's this. It's a classic. (Wednesday 20 November 2019; 02:19)

Re: AIWFIY Hot 100 Chart entry last year (91,396) (91,400) by jaker20 from US It is moving too fast. This is the first time it's entered top 40 before Thanksgiving. Prepare your streaming devices on December. Maybe we should schedule a streaming party? Does anyone know the peak Christmas tracking week this year? (Wednesday 20 November 2019; 00:36)

Re: AIWFIY Hot 100 Chart entry last year (91,396) (91,399) by Keneth Garcia Bayani from Philippines Lower but 2 weeks earlier than last year based on that article. (Tuesday 19 November 2019; 22:56)

2020 hope (91,398) by Will from Australia If it happens and MC gets her 19th No.1 with AIWFCIY this year, I hope they are planning to capitalize on the news it will generate by promoting a new single from a upcoming 2020 album or drop her book in January or something please. Just don't let the moment pass with the decorations coming down you know. (Tuesday 19 November 2019; 22:46)

Grammy Award nominations (91,397) by SM from Citizen of the World Less than 24 hours away, let's all keep our fingers crossed for "Caution". I really want to see Album of the Year. (Tuesday 19 November 2019; 20:23)

Re: AIWFIY Hot 100 Chart entry last year (91,390) (91,396) by Stacey from USA I read an article today AIWFCIY has entered the Hot 100 chart at #39. (Tuesday 19 November 2019; 17:56)

Re: Pure sales (91,392) (91,395) by Norman from USA It goes by quarters in a year. The sales fluctuate over time as some sell more and some sell less. (Tuesday 19 November 2019; 10:32)

Re: Pure sales (91,387) (91,394) by Norman from USA Well, apparently I need to visit my optometrist. Smdh. Babs was right in front of me the whole time. And I could've sworn I read it was only US sales that it tracked, but it's definitely worldwide sales. That's a huge difference and the key factor. I'd like to see a US only chart. It's still impressive Mariah stayed in the top 5 and 10 for the 2000s. (Tuesday 19 November 2019; 06:58)

Re: Santa Claus Is Comin' to Town (Live at St. John The Divine) (91,389) (91,393) by enwar00 from usa Hey Billy. Yes I noticed that too. So agile. Effortless. I assume that's why some argue this was her vocal peak or whatever. I love how playful she was with the kids and audience. She definitely seems herself here and to be having a good time. So glad we have these performances now, I like how natural they are especually in comparison to some of the DVDs. (Tuesday 19 November 2019; 06:38)

Re: Pure sales (91,387) (91,392) by Salmon skin roll from Unagi Am I missing something here? The video makes no sense. Numbers go up and then go down. How can sales go down? Did everyone get refunds? (Tuesday 19 November 2019; 01:42)

Usher's Confessions 2 (91,391) by Bobby A from United States Usher and Ella Mai have a new song Don't Waste My Time produced by JD and BMC. Maybe MC will have a duet track too on Confessions 2. They were in the studio this past summer. Confessions 2 is coming soon. (Tuesday 19 November 2019; 01:10)

AIWFIY Hot 100 Chart entry last year (91,390) by Bobby A from United States Wasn't AIWFIY already on the Hot 100 this time last year? I am really not hearing a lot of Christmas music on the radio right now. One week from Friday is Black Friday. (Tuesday 19 November 2019; 01:04)

Santa Claus Is Comin' to Town (Live at St. John The Divine) (91,389) by Billy from Greece I'm amazed by the fact that one second she speaks regularly and right after she belts the most clear and resonant notes ever. She just glides here vocally, and visually. Just wow, what a legend. (Monday 18 November 2019; 21:59)

Article: Mariah's rendition of classic Christmas tune still not old (91,388) by Bill from the UK "The season of giving has turned into the season of Mariah Carey, and it may have gone to her head. Carey re-released the 1994 Christmas album, now called 'Merry Christmas II You'. It includes several new covers, and a couple live tracks. It excludes 'Miss You Most at Christmas Time' and 'Jesus Born on This Day', which were the other two original pieces on the 1994 album." There is so much wrong with that paragraph I don't know what to do. (Monday 18 November 2019; 14:35)

Re: Pure sales (91,384) (91,387) by Edward from USA Barbra is on the list from 1969 to the third quarter of 1977, then she re-emerged on the second quarter of 1979 and she's gone by the first quarter of 1981. For a moment I thought I would see Mariah at the top like Whitney, Celine, Madonna and Michael, but then I realized that the video is based on worldwide certifications. Mariah wasn't as huge in many places out of US as the other three were. While "We Belong Together" was a monster here in the US, it was a moderate hit some other countries, different from "I Will Always Love You" and "My Heart Will Go On", of course the success of their respective movies played an important part in that. According to what I have read, Celine's albums in French are very successful and supposedly better than her English albums, and she was also selling those As for Madonna and Michael Jackson, hate them, love them, call them what ever the f you want, but there's not denying in the fact that they were worldwide musical phenomenons.

Re: Pure sales (91,381) (91,386) by TJ from Norway But didn't her debut album sell like crazy? (Monday 18 November 2019; 12:48)

Billy on the street (91,385) by Norman from USA Did anyone else see this IG post of Mariah seemingly filming an episode of Billy on the street? (Monday 18 November 2019; 12:14)
