About Dominique from Cape Town, South Africa: I am light.

Lil Snowman (79,055) by Dominique from Cape Town, South Africa I like this track. Simple vocals, but nice. (Saturday 28 October 2017; 22:27)

Re: I think Mariah was sick the first two nights (77,231) (77,238) by Dominique from Cape Town, South Africa I'd understand if she's not feeling well. If so, then I hope she gets better really soon. Even if not so, I still hope all goes well. I'm sure you'd understand if I had my reservations about this though, because of how it happens with every set of shows. Still, no hate, just saying. I wouldn't go as far as putting down other artists when trying to put Mimi on a pedestal. She claims to respect her peers, so maybe I will too. Also, I'd much rather prefer the drama that comes with cancelling her show for health concerns over the drama that follows some of the things she's recently become known for. But that's only me and my opinion, no offence or anything of the sort. (Monday 17 July 2017; 21:50)

Re: Thank you for the "negativity" (77,229) (77,233) by Dominique from Cape Town, South Africa Thank you Hilton. I hear what you're saying, and I guess there are some positives we could celebrate every now and then, but these seem to be so far and few between. I'm not here for her personal life or the ensembles etc, only for Mariah the singer, the artist. Her personal life and ensembles do however take centerstage more often than not, thanks in part to her social media team. They push these things and then can't deal with the reactions, perhaps they enjoy how Mariah's being torn apart. I try to keep to the music and the live performances, and I'll keep hoping that one day she'll use her voice to sing again. I love her voice, I just don't feel that she is singing anymore. Don't get me wrong, I'm not expecting nineties vocals or for her to replicate any of those lines from the studio where she miraculously doesn't breath for like, ever. She's missing so much of the very fundamental things pertaining to singing when she performs, and implementing these again doesn't even require surgery. I've listened to quite a few clips of her recent shows. When I do, I close my eyes and listen for a singer. I'd be lying if I told you that I could find a full five minutes of actual singing from what I've heard. I am happy to hear that the sounds coming out of her mouth are a bit more pleasant than the day before though, and because I love her, I'll keep watching and listening just like I keep going to my nephew's football games. He's not scored in 2 years. I know she'll be better soon. Anyway, lambily forever. (Monday 17 July 2017; 18:58)

Re: TGIFY 7/15/17 (77,224) (77,226) by Dominique from Cape Town, South Africa I dream of an accoustic set with Mariah. As many have been saying here, she could rework her songs to suit her current vocals, a few with just guitar would be perfect. She surely doesn't lack the creativity to change things up, so why not Mariah? I'd love to hear "Right to dream" and "Help me make it" live. Really live though, no pre-records or butterflies singing in the background. (Monday 17 July 2017; 15:21)

Thank you for the "negativity" (77,225) by Dominique from Cape Town, South Africa It's nice to know that there are mostly objective peeps here. We all love Mariah and we hope for better things for her. The day that this place turns into a board for "Mariah yes-men", I'll be sure to leave. So thank you for the "negativity" folks.

Re: Beat Shazam, drinking, Tanaka, the studio and Vegas (77,113) (77,121) by Dominique from Cape Town, South Africa I absolutely agree with you. I've commented on this video asking some of the viewers to explain what goes here because I can't, for the life of me, understand the point of her appearance. Regarding Vegas, I'm glad that she sounds slightly better, but as a singer myself, I'm not blown away at all. Not even in the slightest. I now avoid talking Mariah to any of the peeps I know who are musically inclined. It's become impossible to defend her. PS. I'm still a fan. (Friday 14 July 2017; 14:37)

Latest Vegas performance (76,988) by Dominique from Cape Town, South Africa Is what I've been waiting for. Sadly, I don't know if the wait was worth it. I'll hang on in there though. (Sunday 9 July 2017; 15:35)

RIP Martyn (75,629) by Dominique from Cape Town, South Africa This is so so sad. (Wednesday 24 May 2017; 11:58)

Praying for you Martyn (75,591) by Dominique from Cape Town, South Africa I've read so much posts from people who know Martyn, and it's clear that he's very well loved. I really hope and pray that he returns home safely. Here's one of the many articles I've come across. (Tuesday 23 May 2017; 16:32)

Debunking Delilah (74,291) by Dominique from Cape Town, South Africa Geez can we grow up now? I've been coming here for over 13 years, not much of a poster. I know some of you think of this as lame but oh well. I've even purchased some magazines from this site. I agree that Brian is not right for Mariah, but is the bashing of him necessary? Is this high school again? (Sunday 9 April 2017; 21:12)

Almost Home (37,239) by Dominique from Cape Town, South Africa I've been listening to this song over and over. Its a good song, and the new vocals definitely make me look forward to the new album. However, I think that the production could have been better. Why auto-tune? I'm also not feeling the cut and paste vocals, because it means that she'll once again be struggling to sing the entire song live. Just saying. I like the song though.

Joy To The World live at BET 2001 (36,890) by Dominique from Cape Town, South Africa I only just came across this performance, and I'm so glad I did. It's always pleasant to hear something live from the Glitter era, I think her voice was in a good phase at this time. Check it out folks. (Monday 3 December 2012; 21:18)
