Re: Chapters (95,700) (95,709)

| I really enjoyed the book. It was a bit overly political at times, but her stories of working the bar scene for years was great, and the meanings behind her songs was great. And the audio book was brilliant as she was a great narrator. As for my favourites, her first three albums are pretty much untouchable. I'd have to probably go with Under the Pink, as Pretty Good Year is my favourite song of hers. When it bursts into raging grunge for ten seconds, then dampers down again - it's extraordinarily moving. |

| Love the pic. Here We Go Around Again was the best for me. It sounded like I Want You Back by the Jackson 5. Mariah's heavenly 1990 voice. Just wow. |

| Hi gang. So you're aware, Amazon are selling Mariah's reissued vinyls in the UK, except for the coloured variants exclusive to the US retail stores of course. |

You skip Someday on Unplugged? Get out of my sight lol. Also clarification: I didn't put Boy as my CB skip song, as I genuinely forgot about it as it has been deleted and erased from all playlists and versions of CB I have uploaded to iTunes. |

| You jest, but the spread sheet is actually set up ready and waiting to be completed to track the differences. It will divide into chapters and then log the time stamps (audio) or page numbers (book) depending on where the variance is. This is why I booked next week off work lol. |

| I'm a big fan of Mad TV and have watched this clip many times. Has absolutely nothing to do with, and no mention of, Mariah. It is funny though. |

| I will be turning the page as I listen to Mariah speak. I did it with Tori Amos' book and she had additions on the audio book not in the written book, and vice versa. I will collate any differences and report back. |

Still Out Here On My Own (95,668)
by Bill from the UK
(Monday 21 September 2020; 09:20) | | |
| This song is all I have played since it was released. It has been on non-stop repeat. My poor neighbours. It's got a whole other level to it when it's 2am and you're on the last of a bottle of red. Thank you Mariah for this gift. |

| Even her voice breaking slightly on the last "help me" is so incredibly moving. And I'm glad she didn't use a high note, it doesn't even need it. The emotion in this song is overwhelming. I just can't believe this didn't make it onto Glitter but Want You did. It is honestly one of her best remakes and best songs. And to think, the album has unused songs from the debut, Emotions, Music Box and Daydream. Lord thank you. |

Glitter 2.0 (95,634)
by Bill from the UK
(Saturday 19 September 2020; 00:28) | | |
| Great to see the message board buzzing about "OHOMO" (lol). I made a new Glitter playlist. In short I axed Loverboy Remix, moved regular Loverboy to track 1, and had On My Own as the closing track. It flows great following after Twister and is a fantastic ending to the album. I'll likely switch out Loverboy with the Firecracker version when that arrives. I still can't believe this has not been out the vault until now. This has been the best MC30 Friday treat so far. |

Mariah's insta story (95,604)
by Bill from the UK
(Friday 18 September 2020; 09:19) | | |
| Okay so Mariah uploaded a clip on her Insta story for Out Here On My Own showing the master tape sleeve. There's a song called "So, it's just the way", which I assume ended up being "Want You", but there are also two redacted tracks. Mariah this is cruel lol. If there is more songs from Glitter please put them out. Especially the rumoured Prince duet. |

| I loved the snippet, but the full version is absolutely beautiful. How has this been locked up for 20 years? It is beyond belief. Mariah sings it wonderfully, such passion. Was this meant for Glitter do we think? This would have been an incredible album closer if it was. |

Re: Tokyo Dome concert (95,551) (95,552)

(Tuesday 15 September 2020; 17:47) | | |
| Far be for me to rain on the parade, but the Tokyo Dome concert is pretty much the album versions of the songs lowered a couple of semitones and lip synced. Without You, Forever, Always Be My Baby, One Sweet Day etc. This is why I would have rather one of the European legs be released on audio instead. But beggars can't be choosers as they say. |
