About Giovanni from USA: Big music lover who loves Mimi.

MC17 (112,997) by Giovanni from USA

As good as HFIA is, I like Caution much more. I just love r&b Mariah and her hip hop production. My question is what do some of you want to hear from the next album? I'd really like Mariah to work with Skrillex and JD again. I really want another Caution maybe part 2 lol.

Emotions album (112,996) by Giovanni from USA

I love the Emotions album, very mature and cohesive. The only song I skip is "You're so cold". I have always said "Emotions" is Mariah's best song while some might say "Fantasy" is. "Can't let go", "Make it happen" along with "Till the end of time" make the album in my opinion. I would have swapped out "You're so cold" for "Can you hear me", also "Emotions" song really deserved a Grammy.

Rarities 2 (112,969) by Giovanni from USA

I heard that Mariah may be planning on releasing a part 2 of The Rarities this year or in 2027? If so I would be happy about that.

Make it look good (112,968) by Giovanni from USA

Does anyone still give MILG a listen? One of Mariah's best recordings and deserved more recognition and success. I wish there was a behind the scenes of Mariah in the studio recording the song and I would like to ask her does she ever sing this song in her home.

Confetti & Champagne (112,966) by Giovanni from USA

I love it too, production is good and so 2009/2010. My only complain is that it's way too short. It's more of an interlude than a song. Kind of sucks because it's good. Mariah needs to start making all her songs at least over 3:30 minutes, come on Mimi.

Rock the Boat by Aaliyah (112,939) by Giovanni from USA

I was giving Aaliyah's album from 2001 a listen and it's such good album and "Rock the boat" could have easily been done by Mariah. I wonder if MC likes the song lol. I know it's kind of explicit but who cares, the beat is good. I so wish Aaliyah was still here, sometimes life is so unfair. She was so young, talented and beautiful. Happy New Year to everyone by the way.

DJ Snake (112,938) by Giovanni from USA

I'm really curious what kind of song Mariah and DJ Snake are working on. Snake is very talented and lately I have been listening to one of my favorites from him "Let me love you" by Justin Bieber. Is Mariah going to release a deluxe version for HFIA or is this song for something else?

Lambi (112,937) by Giovanni from USA

I'm happy for you Lambi and I'm gonna miss you. I love your posts and your humor. Please let it be known at Gamma some of us want a Bruno collab and another Christmas album.

Cowboy Carey (112,842) by Giovanni from USA

Mariah was serving looks in Aspen in her cowboy hats and outfits. She looked so good and glamorous and it made me think of "Help me make it through the night". A very nice song that showcases Mariah's talent and diversity as an artist and singer that she really can sing anything. What are your thoughts Mimi L?

The Distance (112,803) by Giovanni from USA

I have this song on repeat, definitely one of Mariah's best. I really wish it was longer because I never want the song to end. I normally hate featured artists in songs especially Mariah songs but I must say Ty Dolla did his thing. I saw an interview of Mariah where she said she was given some beats to listen to and she picked the one for The Distance and I just found it interesting lol. Caution has become of of my favorite Mariah albums and she couldn't have made a better album that year.

Olympics - Nothing is Impossible (112,802) by Giovanni from USA

It's a very nice song and it gives me Rainbow vibes. You can literally hear Rainbow Mariah singing this song. I would really like to see at least one live performance of this song.

Love takes time (112,764) by Giovanni from USA

Gave "Love takes time" a listen and it's definitely one of my favorites from Mariah. She still has the best debut album by a female in my opinion. I would love to hear Kelly Clarkson cover this song.

NII (112,763) by Giovanni from USA

I hope she wears a good ensemble haha.

Bruno Mars (112,762) by Giovanni from USA

I like Bruno Mars, his voice and his music. He's my dream collaboration but if it never happens I guess it's just not meant to be. I just think they would sound great together the way John Legend sounds great with Mariah. Bruno has never mentioned Mariah so I don't know if he likes her. I'm sure he does.

In your feelings/Nothing is impossible (112,740) by Giovanni from USA

Both good songs that remind me so much of MOAIA but if I had to pick the one that would likely be a hit it's definitely "In your feelings". [Here For it All] is a very good album that deserved better so I'm really hoping the next will be more successful. I feel a Bruno Mars duet would help a lot.

Play This Song (Live on Jimmy Fallon) (112,739) by Giovanni from USA

I also loved the ensembles Mariah and Paak wore. They looked like a fairytale couple who would live happily ever after. I saw the pic of Anderson giving Mariah a kiss on the cheek lol. They really did look like they just got married.

Hark. The Herald Angels Sing/Gloria (112,723) by Giovanni from USA

I never cared for this song until now. Mariah's version is by far the best in my opinion. Her delivery and the choir is heavenly. I love Merry Christmas now more than ever.

All I want for Christmas is you (112,722) by Giovanni from USA

Congrats to Mariah for now having the longest number one song on Billboard Hot 100. She deserves it and I'm happy that people still enjoy this classic. I think as of now I'm done streaming it, I've heard it enough and I don't wanna get sick of. I hope it stays number one for as long as possible and I hope we get at least one more Christmas album before Mariah retires. She literally has the best voice for Christmas music.

Sugar Sweet (112,666) by Giovanni from USA

The hit that should have been. It just needed at least one more Mariah verse. I think the song was just past its time in terms of release, production and Mariah's age. It sounds like something from E=MC². It's basically TMB's sister and I still love it.

Die with a smile (112,665) by Giovanni from USA

I think "Die with a smile" is probably the best song that has been released in the last 10 or even 20 years. It's very addictive and so much better than "Leave the door open". I love it so much Bruno and Gaga did their thing and definitely deserved their Grammy. I have often imagined E=MC² Mariah singing "Die with a smile" when her voice was more youthful and powerful. I think she could have pulled it off.

In Your Feelings (112,664) by Giovanni from USA

I love it so much but I can't listen to it anymore cause her voice sounds bad. Music Box and Daydream Mariah would cringe if they heard that. Overall I still enjoy HFIA just wish it had at least one hit. In my opinion if MOAIA Mariah was singing "In your feelings" it would be more enjoyable and a potential hit. The lyrics and production is there it's just the fans are not. I think there's a lot of remaining fans who don't care if she has any more hits but for me I'd like her to at least tie The Beatles' record. It's time for Mariah to write with Bruno and give us the collaboration some of us have wanted for years.

My Love (112,571) by Giovanni from USA

There's an AI version of "My love" in Butterfly voice and in my opinion it's good. A very nice r&b version that would have fit perfectly on the Butterfly album. I'm kind of disappointed that we have never heard any unreleased songs from '97. There has to be at least one or two that didn't make the album.

The Beautiful Ones (112,570) by Giovanni from USA

Yup I agree Mariah out did Prince with "The Beautiful Ones". I don't care what he thought about her cover, hers is better. I have never cared for Prince the same way I have never cared for Elton John or Stevie Wonder.

When Christmas Comes (112,569) by Giovanni from USA

I love the song but I disagree, I like the video. I love Mariah's look in the ... especially by the piano next to John Legend. I think the video was nicely done and represented Mariah being happy and enjoying the Holiday spirit. I just can't stand seeing Nick Cannon anymore.
