Glitter and Daydream (114,449) by TJ from Norway
I don't understand why the CD releases are less attractive than the LP. Let's start a petition.

Glitter (114,448) by Bill from the UK
1. Loverboy Firecracker version
2. Out Here On My Own
3. Never Too Far / Hero medley
4. Didn’t Mean to Turn You On remix
5. Prince duet
6. Big Nasty sample song
7 through to 15 should be all new songs, but I suspect we’ll get the Loverboy and NTF/Hero remixes that were out at the time and a bunch of acapellas. If I set my expectations low I shouldn’t get too disappointed. A whole album worth of shelved songs and unheard material from the era is highly unlikely... but let’s see.

I need your help (114,447) by Elin from Norway
2. This clip is from a short interview on Norwegian radio. Probably 1993. I remember hearing it. The clip has been edited. After the high note the interviewer asked: Can you go lower also? And then she did the lower-part, and said at the end: "That's about how low as it gets" while laughing.

Amen Rashidi. I could agree more. I didn't know any of this business crap about Sony still knowing parts of the world that Mariah could release music etc. That is definitely a snake in the grass. It's pretty disturbing tbh. Anyway. All considering, Mariah has held it together very well given all the corruption she's had to deal with in her life.

Glitter (114,444) by Bobby A from United States
The 15 tracks must be more than remixes for MC not to release the tracklist with the vinyl preorder. I read on Reddit that MC recorded a bunch of tracks with Stevie J. We could finally get to hear the Prince collaboration and the Vanity Six Nasty Girl sample. I feel we are going to be pleasantly surprised in October.

Snooze you look Virgin Records (114,442) by Rashidi Rahim Rick from Malaysia
Virgin should have taken control of the project:
1. Keep the name All That Glitters for the movie. Release the movie as special tv movie on HBO or VH1. Whitney did that trend with Cinderella in 1997 and it worked.
2. Maintain Loverboy (Firecracker version) as the leading single.
3. The Loverboy (Candy version) can be released as the remix on the album just like Heartbreaker Remix on Rainbow.
4. Refrain Mariah from wearing that bandana in the music video. It cheapened her brand as the most expensive singing contract (apart from Whitney) at that time.
5. After the release of the album, book her for another Unplugged session. She needed to reconvince that she still got the voice after the disappointment of her vocals in her last two albums; Butterfly and Rainbow. Hire her a vocal coach. Madonna did this for her Evita project and she showed the vocal result of performing at Oscar for You Must Love Me.
6. Keep Out Here On My Own on the album and make that as second single. The song is much better telling a story of Billie Frank who was on her own after her mother left her and her boyfriend died. This could be her I Will Always Love You or My Heart Will Go On moment.

There was no rat in Virgin. Tommy had access to the soundtrack because the production company for the film was Columbia Pictures, a division of Sony Pictures Entertainment. Also, Sony Music Japan released and distributed the album in Japan. So it was never under lock and key, but actually handed to him on a silver platter.

That track listing is completely fake.

Snooze you look Virgin Records (114,440) by Lighty from China
Virgin signed with Mariah in April 2001. Mariah started working on the All That Glitters/Glitter project way before that, as early as 1997/1998. Glitter the movie was produced and released by 20 Century Fox and Columbia Pictures, the latter is a sister company of Columbia Records. Glitter the album was released in Japan by Sony Music Japan. Of course Tommy knew everything.

I need your help (114,438) by Chiel from The Netherlands
Hey fellow Lambs, I need your help with hunting down some particular Mariah footage and solving a little Mariah mystery. Here they are:

(1) Where is the full footage of this Mariah's Crave promo interview/EPK (late 1996/probably early 1997)?

(2) Where is this mysterious clip of Mariah showing off her range from?

1) I'll explain it a bit further. The full footage of the Crave promo interview (1996/1997). Where is it.? It seems to have disappeared everywhere. Mariah did a very cool interview/EPK to promote her short lived record label Crave (with groups like Allure). It shows her in the studio, interviews with her, other artists and record label people. It is one of the few interviews from the period in between the Daydream and Butterfly era, such a special period in her career and life. But I can't find it in full anywhere. Only snippets, the longest version I could find is here. I even contacted the Instagram page owner, but they also don't have it anymore.. There are some other very short Crave interviews available but sadly not this long one. The full interview used to be a download on the very old Mariahmm.info Mariah Multimedia website with the title "Crave Records promo interview 1996" (although I'm pretty sure it was released early 1997), but it seems to have disappeared from the internet. It also used to be on YouTube I think, before it got copyrighted and deleted. Does anybody know where to find it or even have it downloaded themselves? It would be so cool to watch stuff from Mariah's transition from Daydream to Butterfly..

2. This mysterious vocal range demonstration (Mariah Carey showing her highest and lowest note). Where is it from? It has popped up in the most random vocal range videos and showcases of Mariah. I've found a very old website that claims it is from an early 90s radio interview in Europe. But I've also heard people claiming it is from the Charmbracelet era/2003, or even TEOM/2005/2006. To me it sounds like it might be from 1990 (especially the whistle and laugh), but I don't know. Or are the high and low note edited together and are they actually from different eras? Please share your thoughts. What is the origin of this clip? Is there a longer version?

If anyone could help with these Mariah mysteries in any way, it would be greatly appreciated. It is also a fun quest of course haha and we might stumble on hidden treasures. I hope we can solve it. Thank you dahhlings. We enjoyed ya, bye.

Let's hope so. It seems Mariah recorded more songs than we imagined. An Elton John cover? That would be fascinating.

Glitter (114,435) by Edward from USA
I hope these 15 additional tracks aren't just a bunch of bland, current-day remixes. Glitter was such a special project for her. It was going to be her own Bodyguard. She poured so much of herself into it that she ultimately had that infamous nervous breakdown. She had also been recording material for the project years before it was released, "Heartbreaker" was originally supposed to be on Glitter.

It will be interesting for this new pressing of Glitter to be released via Island Def Jam and not a Virgin Records release. (Also, correct me if I'm wrong, was there a 2nd pressing in the last few years of all MC's albums on vinyl including Glitter? Around the time Glitter appeared back on Streaming?) Anyways - Virgin Records was really chicken sh** out by ending their relationship with Mariah in such a knee jerk way. I mean they still stood by Janet in 2004 and 2006 after the ridiculous Super Bowl insanity.

Virgin panicked, and for the massive organization they were, they could have kept the ship sailing steady. Also, why did someone at Virgin even let Tommy hear Mariah's new music for Glitter? It should have been under lock and key ah-la Beyonce and Drake. There was obviously a rat in the mix (one of Tommy's spies) giving him the goods.

Imagine Mariah hit us with the original plan of releasing Butterfly, then "All that Glitters" movie and soundtrack in 1999 as was intended? It's one of those sliding door moment of Mariah's like. Just like if "Art of Letting Go" album was released right after #Beautiful was climbing the charts while she was on American Idol.

Could that be a bonus track, perhaps with Mariah's original vocals on it? That would be awesome.

The album version is ecxactly like Cherrele's original song "Didn't Mean To Turn You On" back in 1984 so I guess Mariah wanted the same feeling.

I am excited and disappointed at the same time. Why is there not a plan this time to release all 15 additional tracks and the original album on a 3CD set? I just think this time a physical anniversary CD demand exists amongst the Lambs.

New remix (114,425) by Terna from Nigeria
I always felt like the album version on "Glitter" was quite "noisy" to put it nicely - overproduced, someone at the studio went overboard with the 80's production. Haha. I am pleasantly surprised with this one. The whole song is breathing and Mariah isn't buried under layers of 80's glitter. Lol. Honestly, I'm looking forward to the whole re-release in October.
