About Chicago Lamb from USA: Mariah fanatic since 1990!

QOC (101,656) by Chicago Lamb from USA
This is the business of showbiz. If you love Mariah then you want her to make an impact with every release, promo, merchandise, every opportunity. She signed up for it, and we signed up for it. So let's not start checking Mariah's "morals" in the name of entertainment. Here's to another #1 and a sold-out Christmas tour.

Re: What MC albums have you never bought? (101,441) (101,442) by Chicago Lamb from USA
All of them, singles included in CD form. I have a few hundred although stopped buying some years ago. I'd like to sell the whole lot, vinyls, magazines included. Ralphie Rosario is a friend of mine in Chicago, and he gave me all his Mariah vinyls. Some records and CD's never even opened. I think I have one with LTT on the CD but not on the sleeve track list. And if course I have a signed copy of Butterfly by Mariah herself among many gems.

Could this be real?

Re: Bey snubs Mariah (100,911) (100,914) by Chicago Lamb from USA
Maybe it was Madonna who stipulated "don't mention Mariah if you're going to use my song". Just a theory. I hope perhaps Bey has something planned with Mariah. I like Renaissance, I think it's great if you like Ballroom House.

Re: Libra (100,762) (100,769) by Chicago Lamb from USA
Libra here too, cusp of Scorpio Oct 22. Aries (Mariah) and Libras have chemistry.

Re: Tommy's Mariah (part 3) breaking down (99,823) (99,825) by Chicago Lamb from USA
I hope most of you guys realize that the Mariah we know and love today is a product of a symbiotic relationship with Tommy. Without a crystal ball, we just don't know who Mariah would be without having worked so closely with him. When you work/live with the boss, there are things learned about "the business" that give you an incredible edge. Obviously this knowledge was beneficial in creating longevity in the industry. Boo-hoo, it was a tough marriage. Mariah was an adult walking into the relationship and has her reservations and regrets. Frankly, I wouldn't change history between them one bit. Mariah love all day.

He missed the fact that "I'll be there" was the only #1 hit from the MTV Unplugged show's history.

Don't Look Up (99,309) by Chicago Lamb from USA
Star studded cast of "Don't look Up", includes a portrait cameo of Mariah, pictured with Meryl Streep. Streep plays president of the United States fighting to save Earth from impending doom as a comet hurls toward Earth. The picture of Mariah and said president sits upon the Oval Office desk.

Article: The number ones: Mariah Carey's "Emotions" (99,231) by Chicago Lamb from USA
This column is an absolute must read for old lambs, new lambs, and aspiring lambs alike. I'll keep saying it with every MC installment. Young Mariah wanted to be a radio artist. She wanted to hear her songs on the radio. Never did she imagine the blockbuster success she'd accomplish.

Re: Change (99,145) (99,151) by Chicago Lamb from USA
I think 2-3 very minor rhinoplasties have had an impact on her tone to some extent. But Jamie, I agree that her technical approach changed from album to album, opting for yes, a more relaxed delivery leading all the way to Rainbow.

Re: Christmas BPCH (Magic Continues) (99,044) (99,047) by Chicago Lamb from USA
You guys are looking at "The Magic Continues" wrong. Think of it as a promo for FILAC. That's one hell of a platform to promote a new song, don't you think? And don't be surprised if Mariah shows up every year on Apple+ or an equivalent to promote a new song. Star power. BPCH wasn't bad at all with the band and production. Ya'll need to stop obsessing over her tone. Happy holidays everyone!

Grammy snub in Spoken Word Album Category (98,992) by Chicago Lamb from USA
The Scammies strike again. Unbelievable. I've listened to the TMOMC audio book 3-4 times already. This particular snub in the Spoken Word Album Category is just abhorrent.

Article: The Number Ones: Mariah Carey's "Love Takes Time" (98,801) by Chicago Lamb from USA
I love this guy's deep appreciation for the work and Mariah's craft. The history tid-bits make his Hot 100 column a compelling read. I couldn't imagine a better way to re-visit the nostalgia from a time I became locked-in as a huge lamb.

For webmaster (98,699) by Chicago Lamb from USA
I was unable to connect to the website for a few days. I thought MCArchives was done. The web browser said "unable to connect to MCArchives". Other browsers failed to connect also. Was the site down or was it something on my end? [Webmaster: There were problems with the root SSL certificate. This has been fixed this morning.]

The Meaning of MC audio book (98,634) by Chicago Lamb from USA
Does anyone here enjoy listening to the audio book of TMOMC as much as me? It's great on a plane where I've listened through it at least 3 times now. With each listen I get something new. For example, she's really warm when it comes to Brenda K. Star. What an honor to be a part of Mariah's legacy. Anyway, Mariah's soothing voice is great, even when I dose off for a nap. It's like listening to your favorite album over and over.

Re: Music Box tour footage NYC (98,565) (98,566) by Chicago Lamb from USA
As a young music consumer in the 90's I, like legions of fans, had to hear Mariah sing everything and anything. So when re-recorded remixes were released, live performances were VHS'd, I collected and collected. I probably own 250+ Mariah releases on CD/vinyl. Thirty years into her career, the collectable and "Have to Hear" moments aren't as abundant. That's what makes this concert footage so special. Takes me back to a time when her voice was high, powerful and pristine. Normally I won't listen to a whole bootleg concert, but this was irresistible.

The Meaning of Mariah audio book error (98,293) by Chicago Lamb from USA
So, I'm listening to the audio book for the 2nd time and I noticed an error. Mariah talks about her #1 song [I'll be there], but refers to it as her "5th #1", which as any good lamb knows it's her 6th. Has anyone else noticed if the book mirrors the same error? How could Mariah herself have made such a mistake?

Re: New material (97,939) (97,941) by Chicago Lamb from USA
I don't mind Andrew's presence here. He's entertaining, fun to read and ultimately should be taken with a grain of salt. Don't like nastiness? Don't engage it. Only want positivity? Don't read his posts. However, he shouldn't be allowed to wield threats to Eric or anyone else on the board. So it's a balancing act our awesome WebMaster has had to undertake.

Re: Something's up (97,912) (97,914) by Chicago Lamb from USA
We learned very early this year that Mariah signed a huge deal in partnership with AppleTV for a Christmas special and a nice big budget. Lambs to be fed quite nicely this holiday season.

Re: The Rarities 2 - CD2 (97,711) (97,715) by Chicago Lamb from USA
"Hark The Herald Angels Sing" from Good Morning America circa 1992, perhaps could be a bonus. This is one of my top favorite live vocal performances of all time. I think its Eric's too, our webmaster.

Mariah on Oprah 1997 (97,548) by Chicago Lamb from USA
She performs Hero and Butterfly. Also discusses separation from Tommy, living at Sing Sing, relationship with her mother, Patricia. Good and early reference to some material from TMOMC.
