"It's not a song that didn't need to be written." Okay so since we already have My All, why did Mariah have to write After Tonight and I Only Wanted? We already have so much heartbreak records.

"One of the songs sung before a Super Bowl national anthem with young girls from around the world tryna count steps with lame choreography." Literally what's wrong with that? That's every family gathering and every Sunday church service. That's literally okay. Family suited songs are okay. Songs that can be sung around children are okay.

Perhaps you were upset because you were abruptly awakened, but it might have been better to leave the phone alone for a while and let the mood settle.

This is where lambs lose and are just objectively annoying. Mariah does something with a legend and it's actually quite wholesome. Probably special because she made a friend out of Ari and it's obviously a big deal since she was willing to disregard all beef with Walter just to honor Barbra's invite and some lambs just have to ruin it. We can't have anything nice and wholesome.

Barbra's song (109,506) by Stacey from USA
I was hoping for a more pronounced whistle note a few seconds earlier as the climax started into the final chorus.

One Heart, One Voice (109,505) by Bill from the UK
I don't remember texting you Randy. I agree with you. It's okay, but it's hardly a return to the 90s and Mariah sounds the worst out of the three.

I'm more like: the voice, the arrangement and then the lyrics. Always been like that. Am I the only one?

One Heart One Voice (109,503) by Dave from USA
A beautiful song. No one screaming or trying to outdo each other. Barbara [sic] giving MC and AG equal footing on her project is just class personified. She didn't relegate them to mainly provide background. I'll take a relaxed, dated sound to some of the junk that is supposed to be music or respectable vocal prowess these days, at any time. Well done.

One Heart, One Voice (109,502) by Bobby A from United States
It definitely will not be on MC16 because it doesn't have enough of today's musical style and appeal to be a radio hit. I am just waiting for MC to make the announcement when MC16 is dropping. Do you think we are less than 60 days away from the announcement?

Mariah's unique tone and sound (109,501) by jaker20 from US
One thing stood out for me on this song is how unique her voice is. This record made me realize, again, why I fell in love with her. She's actually more reserved here, and respectfully stepped back. But it also made me realize how unique her voice is.

Streisand's voice is classic and powerful, Ariana is also a good vocalist and has her own style. But side by side with other artists, how Mariah "play" with her tone stands out.

Her power is probably not the same anymore, but the playfulness, texture and dynamics is always going to be there. It's hers and hers only. She goes from whisper then like a "fracture" or break, head and chest, and then back to soothe again.

I don't understand vocal terms so I'm clearly sounding senseless now. But then Mariah herself said she never had a formal training. But that quality on her voice is really what makes me recognize it's her and make her voice unique. That even great vocalists, even if they try to sing her song, it's just not, and will never be, the same.

One Heart, One Voice (109,500) by jaker20 from US
It was ok, kind of what I would expect for a Streisand song. However, if Mariah will be doing these types of songs, I would rather it be more in the lane of Home and 100%, which by the way, are both epic, inspirational standards, they needed to be on streaming and be discovered.

One Heart, One Voice (109,499) by lighty from China
I totally agree. Very generic 90s ballad and it's not even that catchy. After several listens I still can't remember the melody. Tell Him with Celine is far superior. Oh the good old days.

She's not able anymore. That's for sure.

One Heart, One Voice (109,497) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter
I don't like it either. It's quite dated and just not my taste. Glad for 3 iconic women coming together to lend their vocals to a song but I am not listening to it for a second time haha.

One Heart, One Voice (109,496) by Dove from United States
I like it a lot. It brought a tear to my eye. It sounds beautiful and nostalgic. I played it on repeat on my drive home from work. It made me want to hear a duet by Mariah and Kelly Clarkson. A Christmas one.

One Heart, One Voice (109,495) by Randy from USA
I don't like it. Here's the thing. I knew it would be a ballad from the 90s. I knew it would feel "crowded". And I do think it's genius how he interchanged them throughout the verses. I am a Mariah Carey fan and what's most important to me is a lyric. Then the vocal. Then the arrangement. The lyrics are both banal and generic. It's not a song that needed to be written. It's been written before. I feel as though this is one of the songs sung before a Super Bowl national anthem with young girls from around the world tryna count steps with lame choreography. It belongs at the end of a really bad movie where the credits are more entertaining than the plot. My favorite person on this board woke me up out my sleep with a text for this? It's just Another Trite Hope Song rackin my brain like crazy.

Barbra's song (109,494) by Xavier mariohmix from Spain
I agree with you and everybody else. It's beautiful and reminiscent of golden ages. However, Mariah's voice sounds weaker than the others or somehow different (I don't know how to put it). Probably she could have soared more. I'm not sure if she doesn't want to or she is not able anymore.

Barbra's song (109,493) by MusicfanJ from Germany
I love it too. A real melody, real singing, beautiful lyrics, perfect arrangement. All three sounds good together. Mariah is showing she still has the magic tone like in the good old days. Thanks to Barbra Streisand and Walter who made it happen once again. Bravo. I'm so happy with it.

Actually there's a whistle in the background at 4:06 time mark.

One Heart, One Voice (109,491) by Terna from Nigeria
I like it. Yes it does sound dated and typical Walter production but it works. Mariah is sparing on the track, with Ariana doing most of the heavy lifting if any, I kind of expected more in terms of vocals and a climax, cos we all know these three can do more, especially after she described it as "grandiose" - far from it actually, sublime yes.

Barbra's song (109,490) by Bobby A from United States
Wow. It is really beautiful to hear their voices together. I am very hopeful now that Walter A. and MC have collaborated on MC16. I sure hope L.A. Reid mentioned it to MC.

Barbra's song (109,489) by Stacey from USA
Agree. I was hoping for a whistle note going into the final chorus, sort of a cherry on top. Of course we are going to want MC to shine a bit more. However, MC fans need to recognize this is Barbara's [sic] song ft MC and AG. She is a guest artist. I like the song, its message. It's definitely a throw back to the early 90s for Mariah. Beautiful voices.

Yes it's great. Loving hearing her sing this style again, under the production of Walter.

Wow. This was great. All of there voices blended together perfectly. I can't believe after all these years, Mariah and Walter finally worked together again. Do you all think he will produce or co-produce a song on MC16?
