About Edward from USA:

Christmas songs (early bird special) (104,149) by Edward from USA Only four Christmas songs re-entered the Hot 100 this week. 17. All I Want for Christmas Is You 32. Las Christmas 38. Jingle Bell Rock 44. A Holly Jolly Christmas If there's a possibility for any song other AIWFCIY to hit No. 1 this year, in my opinion, that would be Last Christmas. I'm tired of seeing Taylor Swift with 20 songs on the top 10. (Tuesday 21 November 2023; 13:56)

Billboard (104,145) by Edward from USA AIWFCIY doesn't have any other Christmas song ahead of it so far. (Tuesday 21 November 2023; 03:00)

Billboard (104,144) by Edward from USA "All I Want for Christmas Is You" re-enters the Hot 100 at No 17. (Tuesday 21 November 2023; 02:01)

Performance (104,143) by Edward from USA People on this board love Mariah and have given her some great advice. If there were only "yasss queen" lambs posting here, Mariah would still be believing she was fooling anyone. All the "yasss queen" sites disappeared for a reason. Mariah is a musical genius, she should be held to higher standards. I'm glad she probably reading this board since she seems to be doing some of things recommended here.

Performance (104,142) by Victoria from USA Lol seriously lol. I pray that she's never visited this website. Maybe she did and then read all the disgusting things some of you say about her right before the Christmas concerts started. I've been a lamb since 1990 and I would never say the horrible things that I've read on here, from people that weren't even born in 1990. I don't think of this site as a Mariah fan site anymore. I miss the old ones. (Monday 20 November 2023; 23:35)

Performance (104,134) by Edward from USA It was definitely live and she sounded good. It seems to be she's working with a vocal coach or something. Even though she's not belting much, at least she doesn't seem to be struggling with the less taxing notes. That makes me happy. (Monday 20 November 2023; 13:25) this is a reply to message 104,133

Performance (104,133) by Robert-Anthony from United States It was live 100 percent dahling. She has her voice back. (Monday 20 November 2023; 10:46)

Mop the Floor song (104,130) by Edward from USA Now she has to walk on carpet and take the stairs. (Sunday 19 November 2023; 21:01) this is a reply to message 104,129

Mop the Floor song (104,129) by MusicfanJ from Germany I love it. Mariah with the mop. It's hilarious. I would buy the mop song. Lol I've always loved her humour since day one, I wish more people would see how funny she is and not just the diva. (Sunday 19 November 2023; 20:29)

Mop the Floor song (104,128) by Edward from USA Quickly, damn autocorrect. (Sunday 19 November 2023; 18:49) this is a reply to message 104,127

Mop the Floor song (104,127) by Edward from USA She should quicking write a Christmas songs titled: "Mopping Around my Christmas Show", it would go viral on Tik Tok. (Sunday 19 November 2023; 18:32)

Mop the Floor song (104,121) by jaker20 from US Lol. Wacky. This woman is too much lol. (Sunday 19 November 2023; 05:16)

Bryan Tanaka (104,117) by Edward from USA You seem pretty invested in minding other people's business. Aren't you too old for that? (Sunday 19 November 2023; 01:05) this is a reply to message 104,114

Bryan Tanaka (104,114) by JR from United States Oh no you ruined everything by deciding to not go. Do any of you have lives outside of this messageboard? To come on here just to announce you aren't going? Nobody cares or asked. (Saturday 18 November 2023; 22:16)

Bryan Tanaka (104,102) by Edward from USA Don't waste your time, everything the Tanaka article says about the show is true. I stopped watching because it makes me sad and I don't want to be sad during the holidays. I'm actually revisiting the Merry Christmas II You album in anticipation of when AIWFCIY will hit the top spot again. We got MB30 this year, that's enough for me. (Saturday 18 November 2023; 00:25) this is a reply to message 104,098

Bryan Tanaka (104,098) by Bill from the UK There's a rumour that Bryan Tanaka was arrested a few months ago in Brazil for his involvement in a scam several years ago (pre-Mariah). Not sure if it's true or completely made up, but that would explain his absence recently and subsequent removal from her Instagram. Or, they may have simply broken up. It happens. As for the Christmas concerts, I'm not even going to waste my time watching the videos. It's the same thing we see every year. Like you all, I fear for Mariah's wellbeing and whatever she is battling. But continuing the charade is not helping anyone. The truth will come out one day I suppose. (Friday 17 November 2023; 22:17)

Emotionless: Mariah's face is totally stiff (104,095) by Edward from USA I won't personally go on a diatribe about the first concert. At least she's playing it safe with the few parts she's singing live. She's definitely not lipping 99%, but she's lipping a huge chunk of the concert, I would say anything that requires any nominal belting is being lipped. I'm concerned about her well-being though. It is as if she's going through the motions, as if her body is there, but her soul is not. I really hope she has some great support system around her. Her twins still need her around for many years to come. (Friday 17 November 2023; 18:08) this is a reply to message 104,094

Emotionless: Mariah's face is totally stiff (104,094) by jaker20 from US I agree with her being stiff, hello that's been her case since Memoirs. But she's not 99% lipping. This is the problem with group pileups, we get carried away, start exaggerating and it becomes free for all. I'm sure its possible to criticize her and still be truthful, without throwing everything but the kitchen sink. Anyway, this is the start of the season, and per usual, I can already feel the lambs sharpening their knives. Carry on. (Friday 17 November 2023; 17:08)

Not sure what to do (104,055) by Edward from USA I meant "It's an experience that goes beyond just the singing." (Tuesday 14 November 2023; 13:55) this is a reply to message 104,054

Not sure what to do (104,054) by Edward from USA I would say go for it. You can really feel the Christmas spirit in her concerts. From the audience, you barely notice any of the smoke and mirrors. I think it's an expensive that goes beyond just the singing. That's if you can still find tickets. (Tuesday 14 November 2023; 12:51)

Not sure what to do (104,052) by Jamie from UK Yes part of me wants to wait to see how these go first then consider going to next full concert. (Tuesday 14 November 2023; 12:27)

Not sure what to do (104,053) by Edward from USA Judging by that private concert in Qatar, I don't think anything has changed, but I would love to be proved wrong. I hope the first concert is just great. I'm still rooting for her. (Tuesday 14 November 2023; 12:45) this is a reply to message 104,048

Not sure what to do (104,048) by Robert-Anthony from United States These concerts are probably going to make us know that MC has her voice back or she will never get it back. It's hard to believe that her performance of The Distance on late night TV in 2019 was the last time she truly performed live without a pre-recorded track. (Tuesday 14 November 2023; 06:10)

Mariah confirms she's done 10 songs for new album (104,039) by Edward from USA I concur. Making an album is cheap these days, especially since she writes her own songs. She doesn't really need a label, she could've sold those 50K units of Caution just by promoting it herself. (Monday 13 November 2023; 19:47) this is a reply to message 104,036

Mariah confirms she's done 10 songs for new album (104,036) by Bill from the UK Surely by now the old girl could just finance the damn album herself. All this talk of her shopping around for a record deal is humiliating. She has the resources and star power to go it alone. All she ever does is complain about how such and such a single wasn't pushed, wrong song choices, was told to take songs off she liked, record company politics and blah blah blah. Put your money where your mouth is and go it alone. Tina Arena did so with her latest album because she was tired of the industry and being overlooked, despite being very talented. It did exceptionally well in Australia and was an excellent album too. (Monday 13 November 2023; 16:54)

Mariah Carey's Christmas movie (104,034) by Edward from USA As long as Mariah doesn't have anything to do with the script and directing, that could happen. (Monday 13 November 2023; 12:51) this is a reply to message 104,032

Mariah Carey's Christmas movie (104,032) by jaker20 from US I think Mariah should do a proper Christmas movie with a great story, and a good script, and all the music from Merry Christmas 1 and 2 and some new fun ones. Kind of like Meryl Streep's Mama Mia, but Christmas themed. I think that's a good idea. (Monday 13 November 2023; 04:49)

Saint Harison (104,018) by Edward from USA I think that only happens [once] in a lifetime. As much as I loved Whitney and like Celine, they couldn't quite get to me like Mariah did. While Whitney's voice was more powerful, Mariah's artistry was far superior and her voice more nuanced. Whitney would make any song presented to her sound as if she had written it. Mariah was more like a painter and decorative painter all in one. I don't remember anybody who could put together complicated background vocals like Mariah. Had social media been around back then, Mariah would've been twice bigger than Taylor [Swift.] I can't name a song by Taylor Swift, but the woman is a phenomenon. (Saturday 11 November 2023; 17:51) this is a reply to message 104,016

Saint Harison (104,016) by Robert-Anthony from United States I am trying my best to relive those first two years of being in awe with an artist like I was with MC. I still remember the record store where I bought her debut. I remember hearing Emotions on the radio headed to the mall. I am hoping Saint Harison is that artist. (Saturday 11 November 2023; 03:13)

Saint Harison (104,014) by Edward from USA I loved that performance. His runs are definitely Mariah infused. (Saturday 11 November 2023; 01:04) this is a reply to message 104,013

Saint Harison (104,013) by Robert-Anthony from United States Did you check out his brillant performance of Ego Talkin on Jimmy Kimmel this week? You got to YouTube his performance. Somebody has been truly studying Mariah Carey. I am not making it up either, Andy. He said it in his Apple Music interview discussing his EP Lost A Friend. His vocal technique and phrasing is just like MC. Also, Daley is back on tour in January. (Saturday 11 November 2023; 00:11)

Mariah, please be ready (103,996) by Edward from USA I just hope she learned from last year. The first show is supposed to be an indication of what's to come, it should be just great. Artists tend to do well on the first few dates of their tours. Some of them sometimes get sick along the way, but everybody understands that.

Mariah, please be ready (103,995) by Andrew from the UK It's hard to find a comparator for a singer but when a tennis player has an injury they do not sign up for a circuit of Grand Slams and tournaments. When a rugby player has a pulled hamstring, they are taken out of the season. If you can't sing, don't get on stage - and charge money for it? This sounds mean, maybe it is. And I think if people know what's going to happen and they buy tickets to it, then I'm all for that. But very majorly supportive of people like Adam who chooses not to buy high-price tickets to something very average. The Caution tour was Mariah's first tour in the UK I didn't attend since the Rainbow tour. Because I, likewise, didn't see the point. I'd rather spend the money on a vacation - which is what it costs now. However, I think you're missing the crux. It isn't that Mariah isn't signing so much, it's that she doesn't move, she doesn't banter much, she doesn't do much of anything. I remember attending the Christmas show at the O2 not far from me: I could see she was reading an autocue of what to say. "I have my own reindeeeeer." That isn't just a loss of confidence, that's a loss of dignity, wouldn't you say? When someone is asking Mariah to be prepared, it's a grave, grave state of affairs that this needs to be requested. But, I do hope she puts on a good show and doesn't fill YouTube with yet more toss. (Thursday 9 November 2023; 00:36)

Play Anywhere Music/FYE (103,966) by Edward from USA Why don't you make it yourself? It's pretty easy. (Sunday 5 November 2023; 21:03) this is a reply to message 103,964

Play Anywhere Music/FYE (103,964) by Robert-Anthony from United States I just found out this service is no longer available to make your own CD. The in store FYE kiosk service ended in 2020 at the height of the pandemic. I used this service to make my own CD to have a physical copy of downloaded music. I just don't like listening to or storing music on my phone or a computer. I guess I will be forced to now. Does anyone know of another website where I can make a CD and have it mailed to me? (Sunday 5 November 2023; 16:10)

7 songs one billion streams (103,902) by Edward from USA I hadn't really pay much attention, but Mariah really doesn't seem to care much about Daydream. She acts as if it doesn't exist. She very rarely even mentions it. Daydream is very special to me because it's the album that drew me back to her after listening to Open Arms. I think she got so invested in it that her losing all her Grammy nominations made her block it out. (Saturday 28 October 2023; 19:22) this is a reply to message 103,901

7 songs one billion streams (103,901) by Andrew from the UK I am genuinely shocked Fantasy never gets the audience it deserves. Everyone loves it. I think it may have something to do with Mariah literally ignoring it for 20 years. (Saturday 28 October 2023; 07:21)

Merry Christmas to you too (103,893) by Edward from USA She's been overdoing the Christmas stuff with a few subpart songs here and there that have gone nowhere. She might as well work on a proper project and put it out there. Anything Christmas related she releases wouldn't overshadow AIWFCIY.. (Friday 27 October 2023; 15:04) this is a reply to message 103,882

Merry Christmas to you too (103,882) by Terna from Nigeria No, just no she's over doing the Christmas thingy and it could easily backfire and have everyone tune out mentally on her Christmas offerings, including AIWFCIY. I sure hope she isn't cooking up another Christmas album. That would be overkill. The only thing Christmas themed I would want to hear from her is an official recording of "Away in a Manger" with Roe Roe and her own version of "Where are you Christmas". Mariah dear, absolutely no new Christmas albums for you. (Thursday 26 October 2023; 03:05)

Merry Christmas to you too (103,892) by Edward from USA Probably. I definitely think something's up. (Friday 27 October 2023; 15:01) this is a reply to message 103,891

Merry Christmas to you too (103,891) by Andrew from the UK Well, Merry Christmas was released October 29 and Merry Christmas II You was released November 2. So Merry Christmas III must be out next week? (Friday 27 October 2023; 01:20)

Merry Christmas to you too (103,880) by Edward from USA Happy Birthday, Robert Anthony. I hope you're having a a great day. (Thursday 26 October 2023; 00:21) this is a reply to message 103,879

Merry Christmas to you too (103,879) by Robert-Anthony from United States I just had to express my thoughts today and plus it's my birthday. 29 years old again this year. At this point, I would take any project being released. (Wednesday 25 October 2023; 22:56)

Merry Christmas to you too (103,875) by Edward from USA I'm definitely down for a third Christmas album, but it should only contain new music. I don't want any new rework from past albums. I have the feeling the "theme album" she was talking about is a Christmas album, and it might be coming out soon. (Wednesday 25 October 2023; 21:58)
