Re: Single choices for each album (90,090) (90,093) by Bill from the UK That's not how you spell Migrate. In all honesty I've been relatively okay with the choices made as singles, particularly during the 90s. I only wish the Butterfly singles all got worldwide full releases (only Honey and My All did) rather than specific singles for certain territories. One interesting fact was that And You Don't Remember was set to be the 4th single from Emotions, but was shelved when I'll Be There and Unplugged unexpectedly took off. I do also wonder how You're So Cold would have fared, had it been chosen as the first single from that album. (Wednesday 26 June 2019; 00:59)

Re: Single choices for each album (90,090) (90,092) by Hector from Mexico I agree in everything except Crybaby. That song should have been the second single from Rainbow. (Wednesday 26 June 2019; 00:25)

Re: Madame X (90,087) (90,091) by Hector from Mexico I love Madonna but Madame X is her worst album ever. Mariah has never released an album as bad as Madame X (fortunately). (Tuesday 25 June 2019; 23:36)

Re: Single choices for each album (90,085) (90,090) by Will from Australia That's very deep darling. I'll say my top 5 that shouldn't have been released: I Don't Boy Infinity Crybaby Don't Stop (F4J) (Tuesday 25 June 2019; 23:00)

Article: Mariah Carey is "stamping her heels" with frustration (90,089) by Travis from USA Whatever the case, Mariah is in her best self since the last few years. This is old news and I can't believe that a so called news source has to turn to this again. I think it's time to move on, get over it, and make like "Frozen" and let it go.

Mariah reaching out on Twitter (90,088) by 90sMariah from SG I seldom go on Twitter anymore, but last week or was it two weeks ago when she RT'd a response to someone's tweet re: Miley Cyrus using MC initials and Mariah responded by tagging Eye Patch (Madonna) and the Nasal Chimpunk. Did she even get a response? (Tuesday 25 June 2019; 17:56)

Re: Madame X (90,084) (90,087) by Randy from USA I was a huge Madonna fan and some of her critically panned at the time albums were my favorites. American Life is a masterpiece to me. Confessions on a Dancefloor is a classic but Hard Candy, MDNA and Rebel Heart were a mess and not what I liked. I listened to snippets of Madame X and it's a mess and I won't buy it. So my point is that I respect Madonna and MC. But I haven't liked MC's last two albums either. MIAMTEC and Caution are a mess compared to the rest of her discography. What is it about pop artists and changing their music and alienating their fan base? Celine only releases Adult contemporary. Whitney released an Adult R&B album as her last. I don't want trendy or what you think is growth as an artist. I want what you've always done. Maybe it's just me. I will not be buying Madame X and mark my words if MC releases another experimental trendy R&B record it will be the first album of hers in history I will not buy. (Tuesday 25 June 2019; 17:16)

Single choices for each album (90,085) by The Real Deal from USA New topic. If I was A&R, here would be my single choices for each album. 1. Mariah Carey - I would keep the singles as they were (Vision Of Love, Love Takes Time, Someday, I Don't Wanna Cry), but I would've released There's Got To Be A Way and Prisoner simultaneously to radio at the same time as promo only tracks. 2. Emotions - I would keep releases as they were (Emotions, Can't Let Go, Make It Happen), but would've sent "If It's Over" to adult contemporary radio for promo only airplay and "To be Around You" to pop radio for promo only airplay. 3. Music Box - Dreamlover, Hero, Without You/Now That I Know (as a double single), Anytime You Need A Friend, All I've Ever Wanted 4. Daydream - Fantasy, One Sweet Day, Always Be My Baby, Open Arms, Underneath The Stars, Melt Away 5. Butterfly - Honey, Butterfly, My All, Breakdown, The Roof, Babydoll 6. Rainbow - Heartbreaker, Thank God I Found You, Against All Odds, How Much (but remixed), After Tonight 7. Glitter - Loverboy, Lead the Way, Never Too Far, Last Night A DJ Saved My Life 8. Charmbracelet - Through The Rain, The One, Yours, I Only Wanted, Bringin' On The Heartbreak 9. The Emancipation Of Mimi - It's Like That, We Belong Together, Shake it Off, Say Somethin', Don't Forget About Us, Stay the Night 10. E=MC2 - Touch My Body, Migrate, Side Effects, I Stay In Love, I'm That Chick (but with intro, if no intro, then replace with Cruise Control) 11. Me. I Am Mariah... The Elusive Chaunteuse - Beautiful, Meteorite/Thirsty (double single - "Thirsty" to urban; "Meteorite" to dance club play remixers), Faded, You Don't Know What To Do, Dedicated 12. Caution - A No No, With You (it's actually my least favorite song, but a good reintroduction for "new" radio formats), The Distance, Stay Long Love You, Giving Me Life Songs from her albums that I would not have released as singles (physical or promo), these were released, but I would have nixed them: Never Forget You, Can't Take That Way, Crybaby, Reflections, Don't Stop (Funkin' For Jamaica), Boy (I Need You), Get Your Number, Fly Like A Bird, Bye Bye, GTFO (even though I like it) (Tuesday 25 June 2019; 17:02)

Madame X (90,084) by Gee from U.S.A. (New York City) I actually took a listen to the album and I have to say it is an auto tuned mess. Also critics have not been too kind either. But respect to Madonna for still out here doing her thing, even if I don't subscribe to her or her art. (Tuesday 25 June 2019; 16:28)

Re: Charts (90,077) (90,083) by this_is_qhm from the Philippines I wouldn't use the term "outlasted" as well. They're still in the game, killing it for women of their age in such an ageist industry. Madame X may have sold more because it was promoted better and Madonna has once again resorted to ticket-album bundling for her upcoming tour. (Tuesday 25 June 2019; 14:33)

Re: Charts (90,055) (90,077) by B from USA Madonna hasn't outlasted Mariah. Both are still making music and touring smaller venues. Madonna's album selling 30,000-40,000 more copies than Mariah's isn't suprising considering she has a devoted fanbase who actually purchase her albums unlike Mariah. We also have to take other factors into consideration including the negative press Mariah received between 2014 and 2018 and R&B's commercial decline. Madonna released a pop album that panders heavy handedly to the Latin market while Mariah made an album that appeals exclusively to her fans so Madame X outselling Caution is understandable if frustrating and infuriating.

Re: Songs most liked (90,068) (90,076) by Andrew from London UK Daydream is indeed perfection and Babydoll is the thorn in Butterfly's side. In fact, Babydoll is one of the worse songs ever. It has about as much business being on Butterfly as Madonna had wearing an eyepatch. But you leave Everything Fades Away and Silent Night alone or I really will fight you. Your posts are entertaining, however. You do make me larf sometimes. If you were a song I think you'd be There's Got To Be A Way. (Tuesday 25 June 2019; 04:35)

Re: Most liked (90,074) (90,075) by Andrew from London UK Yes, Will, yes. There seems to be a teenage girl fandom disease on this board by which people who are asked to post a favourite of something post many and when asked to do a top 5 put a top 7. One of each. Yes, Will. Yes. (Monday 24 June 2019; 23:47)

Article: Mariah Carey is "stamping her heels" with frustration (90,073) by Marissa from USA They really are trying to keep this non-story going. This article was not needed. (Monday 24 June 2019; 19:46)

Re: Article: Mariah Carey is "stamping her heels" with frustration (90,066) (90,072) by automatic_prince from Germany Last week's news. Nobody picked up on this so Daily Mail are trying it again? Why? Just leave it. Nobody cares. But the heel stamping was pretty funny. As if that is what happens when she gets mad. Anyway is she more of a sitting down stamper or does she prefer to do it standing up? (Monday 24 June 2019; 19:18)

Article: Mariah Carey is "stamping her heels" with frustration (90,071) by Betty from Canada Stella and the other ex-employees trying to sabotage MC again. These must be the embarrassing videos and unflattering photos they tried to blackmail her with but I guess Daily Mail must have paid them well. (Monday 24 June 2019; 19:11)

Re: Article: Mariah Carey is "stamping her heels" with frustration (90,066) (90,070) by RibbonB from USA One of the same pics released before Mariah's World. It's all the same old crap, just in rehashed tabloid stories. Little to no interest then and none now. (Monday 24 June 2019; 18:52)

Thirtyversary (90,069) by Brad from USA Sooo, although we don't like to acknowledge the passage of time, next year marks the 30th anniversary of MC sharing her music and gift with all of us. I can't help but think that she has something up her sleeve to share with us to mark this festive occasion. Hopefully, we will precede this occasion with the crowning of AIWFCIY at the #1 slot on the Billboard charts. Just something to give us a lil perspective and perhaps excitement. Be well to yourself and others. (Monday 24 June 2019; 18:29)
