Merry Christmas to all (104,659)
by Edward from USA
| |
|
|
That'll be a boost for next week position on Billboard. Record: the only song that has been the first and last number one of the year five years in a row.
Sorry. I've been splashing heavily, Mariah told me to do it. Question? What is it called when you shower in gold? I can't seem to remember.

Last Christmas number one (104,638)
by MusicfanJ from Germany
| |
|

I heard that "Last Christmas" is number one in the UK. I always loved it. It's played a lot here in Germany. I grew up with this Christmas song. Anyway I wish you all Merry Christmas. I hope you have joyful and peaceful days.

Clarity (104,637)
by Edward from USA
| |
|
|
Merry Christmas has gone from 5x Platinum to 9x Platinum in just four years. It has sold about 300K this Christmas season so far. Caution is not even close to reach gold status and Mariah Carey is stuck at 9x Platinum since the late 90's. I would say Merry Christmas is loved by most.

Clarity (104,636)
by Matty from Vancouver Canada
| |
|
|
Do you think Merry Christmas is Mariah's most globally adored album, because of its clarity? I personally like MCII more than MCI, however I have been listening to MCI recently on vinyl, and I feel like the production on MCI allows Mariah's voice to be clear and admired and takes a beat to breath.
What other Mariah albums are as vocally forward as Merry Christmas? I would suggest Emotions, Emancipation, Caution. Those are the most vocally clear albums in my opinion. Thoughts?

The numbers are in: Mariah stays at #1 for another week and it will most likely be the first #1 of 2024. She's 8 points ahead of Brenda Lee.

AIWFCIY back at #1 (104,569)
by enwar00 from usa
| |
|
|
I just read on Talk of the Charts that AIWFCIY is predicted to be back at #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 next week, overtaking Brenda Lee again. Suddenly things seem a little brighter again. Mimi back at #1 where she belongs. It's still a prediction as Billboard doesn't release the official top 10 until Monday. But hopefully it will be, and for the next 3 weeks.

Another close call (104,521)
by Edward from USA
| |
|
|
Brenda is back at number one, but not for such a huge margin: these are the numbers.
RATCT: 41.3 million streams (up 18%), 20.5 million radio airplay (down 1%) and 6,000 downloads (up 109%)
AIWFCIY: 38.5 million streamsn(up 19%), 24.1 million radio and airplay (up 12%) and 5,000 downloads/sales (up 29%)
While RATCT has 2.9 million streams more than AIFCIY, the latter has 3.6 millions radio airplay more than RATCT. Brenda airplay is already decreasing while Mariah's keep going up. AIWFCIY will definitely be number one by Christmas day. Brenda's numbers will deflate faster after Christmas.

MC, Ariana and JHud (104,515)
by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter
| |
|

I too was thinking why is she not giving JHud the time of the day because Jenny was doing the most and Mariah just treated her like background noise while only looking at Ariana. It was a missed opportunity to he really iconic. But I really wonder why Mariah has become so rigid. In a new instagram post of her backstage singing AIW with her team and walking around everyone's jumping and having fun and she is just so stiff. I hope it's not a health issue then I'll feel bad for saying it but it's been really prominent.

She's working on the film adaptation of Wicked: the musical. It's a two-part adaptation. She was already exhausted of releasing music and touring so frequently and admitted to have been on antidepressants. It's a good thing she's focusing on one thing at a time.

Not sure if anyone discussed this yet (didn't get to catch up) but when I heard she brought out Ariana (who's been in hiding for years) I was super excited. Side note I think Mariah and Ariana should collaborate on a non Christmas song along the lines of "Touch my body", their voices complement each other. Ok back to the topic, why was Mariah so stiff? Like Ariana was skipping around dancing and enjoying, JHud was moving around but Mariah just looked like she was pinned to one location and wouldn't move. I see this a lot in her appearances. This was an upbeat song and you'd think they'd probably even try to recreate the video choreo, or if there wasn't enough time just walk around. But she was locked in position and looked like she was reading off instructions on a monitor or something. Mariah girl you've been performing to sold out shows for a while now you'd think she'd have more control over her stage presence.

Of course she will get to number one. She looks better than ever, she sounds amazing (I don't understand why some people say she is lip syncing when clearly she is singing live) and she will be number one for Christmas.
Btw, I have to ask - are there any straight people here or I am the only straight guy here?

Mariah was dominating on airplay and sales last when RATCT hit number one, now she's only ahead on radio airplay. I don't think she'll dethrone Brenda just yet. At this point, the figures Talkofthecharts has are very accurate.

Talk of the charts said it's close again. As of morning of December 10 Mariah Carey's "All I Want For Christmas Is You" and Brenda Lee's "Rockin' Around The Christmas Tree" are looking to closely compete for #1 again on next week's Billboard Hot 100 (December 23rd chart), as the former begins to accelerate faster on streaming.

Andrew, stop watching those YouTube clips, I did a long time ago. I'm actually over her voice situation. If she doesn't care, why should we? You don't see her up there on stage sad and concerned about what people think, she's lipping all the way to the bank.

Seeing as Mariah doesn't even pretend to lipsync now, she might as well just let Jennifer Hudson and Ariana Grande to a duet on stage while she watches, claps, and says "I love you" a few times.

Merry Christmas to our MCArchives dysfunctional family. We agree, we disagree, we sometimes fight, get delusional and paranoid, but we are the MCArchives family. From the ones who post regularly to those who only post to remind us how Andrew should be banned, we love everybody.
When MCArchives came online, back when Mariah was still huge, things weren't any different than they are now. We even had the UK gang against the US gang, but here we are 25 years later fighting, lol. Thank you Eric for keeping the site running all these years and thank all of you for keeping the conversation going.
