About Deedre aka MiTodoChop @HBF from Canada: Proud lamb since "Vision Of Love" 1990

Re: Can't Let Go (80,788) (80,795) by Deedre aka MiTodoChop @HBF from Canada
I do agree with you. I feel "Can't let go" and "Til the end of time" are gorgeous tracks on Emotions. I remember during the Vegas shows, something so beautiful would happen for me when she did Love Takes Time. It's a feeling I can't put into words, but it takes me right back to that first moment I heard Mariah, even more than VOL. The structure of the song, the heartache in the lyrics and the power of the delivery. You appreciate the rarely played songs. "Can't let go" has a lot of places to go live as well.

Re: JLo gets top producers? Why doesn't Mariah? (80,777) (80,785) by Deedre aka MiTodoChop @HBF from Canada
Hey Hilton, I like JLo too. Do I think she has MC's voice? No. Have liked a few of her songs and love the Selena movie? Yes I do. Doesn't mean I love Mariah any less and I don't choose to waste my energy hating on anybody.

Re: Great live video (80,778) (80,782) by Deedre aka MiTodoChop @HBF from Canada
Exactly. I would never want Mariah or anyone to stay in an abusive, unhealthy situation, and I am glad she took herself out. I am just acknowledging that some solid choices did get made in terms of the business/voice end of things.

Re: Great live video (80,727) (80,778) by Deedre aka MiTodoChop @HBF from Canada
Man, that's incredible. I'd never seen this one either. Thanks Bill. Say what you want about the Tommy years (and I'm not dismissing Mariah's feelings either). As someone who loves her as an artist, I love when the focus is on her voice/gift.

Truly appreciate your posts, Edward. Love your sense of humor. Sometimes it’s nice to not take things quite so seriously on here.

Oh for sure, Bill. Insecurities are very human. She's not wrong for having them at all.

I meant "masterclass" in the previous post. Oh the joy of typing on an iPhone. Lol.

Re: Endless Love (80,584) (80,600) by Deedre aka MiTodoChop @HBF from Canada
Totally agree on O Holy Night. I like other versions, but nothing compares to Mariah's. I truly feel Endless Love is perfection. A masterclads in how to deliver a vocal. I watched the music video countless times singing along and celebrated Marsh's voice with anyone who would listen. It's widely known how much Marah says she hated her look in the earlier years, but I always felt her to be stunningly beautiful, yes the clothing is now dated, but I still look back and think how beautiful she is. I understand she felt suffocated, but she doesn't need glitz, she's already lovely.

Endless Love (80,555) by Deedre aka MiTodoChop @HBF from Canada
I was listening to the single this weekend and remembering how much I enjoy the song. I actually prefer Mariah's and Luther's version to the original version. There is so much texture and richness in the vocal and their voices blend so well. It kinda makes me crave some contemporary work again. Don't get me wrong, I love her r&b stuff but I also love it so much when she does simple powerful yet classic, it's very accessible.

Re: Merch (80,401) (80,439) by Deedre aka MiTodoChop @HBF from Canada
For me personally, I see the humor in the shirts, it's just not something I would wear. For people that would, that's cool. I think sometimes things get labelled "hate" but it'd not really hate it is a matter of preference. If it floats your boat, do it. I'd buy the mug on the "tea" shirt if it was available.

Re: Tea shirts (80,382) (80,383) by Deedre aka MiTodoChop @HBF from Canada
The mug on the shirt not the one in the store lol.

Re: Tea shirts (80,376) (80,382) by Deedre aka MiTodoChop @HBF from Canada
Special K. The shirt is funny, just not my thing at all. That mug I would buy though. What is next? MC tea leaves?

Re: Gl (80,314) (80,322) by Deedre aka MiTodoChop @HBF from Canada
It was a great night for Mariah. Agree to completely disagree about Oprah and her statement though. Her comments were in the interest of equality and love.

Re: Professional footage of NYE rehearsal (80,279) (80,281) by Deedre aka MiTodoChop @HBF from Canada
Ok Andrew, I'll take that.

Re: Professional footage of NYE rehearsal (80,274) (80,277) by Deedre aka MiTodoChop @HBF from Canada
To be clear, I wasn't addressing you specifically, Andrew. I am speaking in general terms about the topic and how it is labored over after every performance. Frankly for me, it's tiresome. That's my issue. If you feel that's dangerous, good on you.

Re: Professional footage of NYE rehearsal (80,253) (80,262) by Deedre aka MiTodoChop @HBF from Canada
Must we debate lipsync after every freaking performance? We know she uses backing track, but not all the time. Can't we give her credit for having live vocal in the blistering cold of NYC? Why must everything be analyzed to death? That's the quickest way to steal the joy out of it.

Re: NYE (80,226) (80,229) by Deedre aka MiTodoChop @HBF from Canada
Amen Edward. I flat our don't understand how it is possible to expect 90's Mariah vocals. I love her, but she's done too much for that to be even remotely realistic.
(Tuesday 2 January 2018; 19:37)
Re: NYE (80,219) (80,228) by Deedre aka MiTodoChop @HBF from Canada
I was going to say that. When she does do Hero I really appreciate when the climac is done this way. As for the ball gowns, that's her thing, she loves it. At this point you'd be hard pressed for it to end. I guess for me as long as her heart is in the perfomance and she is genuinely happy, that is what matters.

Re: Mariah Carey braves subzero temperatures (80,195) (80,212) by Deedre aka MiTodoChop @HBF from Canada
I actually feel the performance went very well. I know that there are fans that get fed up with excuses. I get it. The truth like it or not is that performing amidst wheather conditions can influence the quality of the vocals. In addition to Mariah needing to take care of her voice. Was the performance without a few human moments? No it wasn't. She's human not a machine and she's put her instrument to use for over 25 years. As Licia said, what makes a difference is when it's clear she's genuinely putting her heart into it. For me that's what matters more than a "perfect" vocal. I could have done without the quip about the tea, simply because a lot of people don't understand her humor, and it gives people reason to focus on a "tea" comment rather than the underlying message of the performance. However, I love her, I'm proud of her effort, and I wish her an absolutely wonderful year.

Re: Article: 20th Anniversary (80,163) (80,165) (80,172) by Deedre aka MiTodoChop @HBF from Canada
Thank you Eric, for all you do for the websie and for the Mariah community at large. It is not easy, but it is appreciated. Lots of websites dedicated to Mariah are simply gone, but this one has stuck around, that’s something to be proud of. Not to mention the discography section is very helpful and the news in one place makes things so easy. Thanks for all the time and effort. Here’s to another 20 year anniversary. Happy New Year,

Re: Mariah's in trouble (80,152) (80,160) by Deedre aka MiTodoChop @HBF from Canada
Lol. Exactly. I don't expect the media will ever stop printing fake news, it happens. The difference now is Mariah is a completely different place now. Not everything is a conspiracy to sabotage her. Enjoy the performance and have fun tonight.

Re: Hero (80,139) (80,144) by Deedre aka MiTodoChop @HBF from Canada
Like it or not Hero is a song that is pretty universal when you mention Mariah's name. This NYE performance is not about people who are fans it's about the general public who are not fans. And shifting public perception after the last NYE can see why it was chosen even if it would be one of the last tracks I would choose.

Re: AIWFCIY #9 Hot 100 (79,959) (79,970) by Deedre aka MiTodoChop @HBF from Canada
No matter what I am so happy the song has the impact it does a genuine Christmas classic that people wait for as part of celebrating and creating the moments in life to treasure. After all the junk of late I am so happy for her. So deserved Mariah.
