Re: Mariah Carey/Bruno Mars - Someday/Treasure (75,931) (75,934) by B from USA I've been saying this for years, lol. (Thursday 1 June 2017; 13:48)

Re: Mariah Carey/Bruno Mars - Someday/Treasure (75,932) (75,933) by Licia from USA Thank you. Those mixes are awesome. My favorites would have to be Someday and the Emotions ones. The Versace on the Floor beat made You're Mine enjoyable. Never thought I'd say You're Mine was enjoyable. Lol. (Thursday 1 June 2017; 12:38)

Re: Mariah Carey/Bruno Mars - Someday/Treasure (75,931) (75,932) by Licia from USA Is this mix on YouTube? [Webmaster: Yes it is, I've added the link to the original message.] (Thursday 1 June 2017; 12:01)

Mariah Carey/Bruno Mars - Someday/Treasure (75,931) by 123 from USA I love this. Mariah should just do an album full of songs that sound like they came from the Golden era of music and call it Throwbacks. This Mashup gives Someday a whole new life. Can't help but sing along. "You were so blind to let me go, you had it all but did not know. No one you'll find will ever be, closer to all your dreams than me." Growls included lol. (Thursday 1 June 2017; 03:58)

Just a thought (75,930) by T from USA If she doesn't sound like her anymore. If she doesn't act like her anymore. If she doesn't work like her anymore. If she doesn't care like her anymore. If she doesn't talk like her anymore. If her face doesn't even look like her anymore. Is she still Mariah Carey anymore? (Thursday 1 June 2017; 03:32)

Re: I was born at night, not last night (75,925) (75,929) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Ya it's only been a few days, well if you happen to come across any in the near future, do let me know. Michael and Mariah has so many parallels. Growing up poor, incredible voices and incredible artists, both paved the way for many newer artists, both full of insecurities (Navi was saying that MJ praised his dance moves and when Navi praised him back, MJ was like "Me? You really think so?", it's cute since MJ, probably the most iconic entertainer in the world), both having stage nervousness, both being betrayed multiple times and finally just isolating themselves, both falling in the hands of leeches, both just having their kids as family, these are just some parallels. I hope Mariah wakes up soon, Michael himself once said he is worth upwards of a billion dollars and look at where he was around the end. (Thursday 1 June 2017; 01:47)

Re: Can we all get along? (75,915) (75,928) by 123 from USA My apologies Andrew. Had I known that was going to be someone's response I would have left your name out and saved you some grief. They missed the point I was trying to make. (Thursday 1 June 2017; 01:40)

Re: Can we all get along? (75,919) (75,927) by 123 from USA Thanks for the support Bill. You always know the right thing to say. (Thursday 1 June 2017; 01:37)

Re: Can we all get along? (75,923) (75,926) by 123 from USA Thanks for the support Ribbon. Speaking of Rodney King, did you see the documentary of the LA Riots recently? They used all real footage and gave a descriptive play by play. It was really good. (Thursday 1 June 2017; 01:35)

Re: I was born at night, not last night (75,924) (75,925) by RibbonB from USA No links as it is so new. They will have it on repeat this week. It was so sad to see him working so hard, in debt with no cash of his own. All the snakes were pushing him to sign more and more deals, but his only "friends" were on his payroll. So many mega famous are sad and alone living in a bubble functioning on substances. I can see Mariah's old team telling a similar story about the new snakes riding until the wheels fall off. Ugh I still remember Jermaine claiming how close he was to Michael, that he was his rock. Yeah right. (Thursday 1 June 2017; 01:21)

Re: I was born at night, not last night (75,922) (75,924) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter RibbonB, can you do me a favor and let me know if there are any links where I can watch the movie. I really wanted to watch it, since Michael was and will continue to be my favorite artist ever, but unfortunately we don't have Lifetime here and I can't seem to find any links for it. (Thursday 1 June 2017; 00:48)

Re: Can we all get along? (75,902) (75,923) by RibbonB from USA I love when people quote the great Rodney King. I'm sure that never in his wildest dreams did he think that he would come up with such an iconic phrase much like "I have a dream" and "we shall overcome". Just kidding about it being as iconic, but it has lasted the test of two decades plus. (Thursday 1 June 2017; 00:29)

Re: I was born at night, not last night (75,907) (75,922) by RibbonB from USA I missed all his so called Stella shade. Momma controls him too I suspect lol. Sadly all of this reminded me of the new MJ movie on lifetime. He died a sad, lonely cash poor, highly indebted shell of himself. Everybody wanted a piece of him and many had their claws imbedded into him. It is told from the perspective of his long time bodyguards, who became his paid friends and confidants. Although according to them, he owed them a lot of back pay. (Thursday 1 June 2017; 00:21)

Re: I was born at night, not last night (75,913) (75,921) by RibbonB from USA As I said, I suspect Mimi asked him to stir the pot or allowed him to. (Thursday 1 June 2017; 00:15)

Re: I'll do it for money, honey (75,918) (75,920) by T from USA She just lost her way. That's all, she's lost. It's too bad because whether it was just a cultivated image or not, I truly believed she cared about the music. (Wednesday 31 May 2017; 22:53)

Re: Can we all get along? (75,916) (75,919) by Bill from the UK Please drop it GG. Not the time nor the place. (Wednesday 31 May 2017; 22:31)

I'll do it for money, honey (75,918) by Edward from USA Some tend to say: "If the music is good, people will buy it", leaving out important factors like whether there is a connection between the fans and the artist or whether the artist is a jackass, an obnoxious diva or just a person perceived as arrogant. Mariah and Kanye come across as arrogant divas. Even though Mariah doesn't come as crazy as Kanye. Looking at Mariah's attitude from the 90's and most of the 2000's, we can see she was better respected and liked than the Circus Mariah we have today, and it is sad that everything has come to this. Barbra Streisand, different from Mariah, cultivated an audience that will follow her until the day she's no longer with us, but she did it with consistency all along and making sure her brand wasn't ever cheapened. Nobody can say she didn't take chances, because the woman basically did it all, having the following awards under her skirt: Grammy, Tony, Emmy, Oscar and Golden Globe. That tells us that by taking chances at doing different things, you don't have to cheapen your brand and reduce your career to that of a talentless reality tv star. I always thought Mariah would be like Barbra when her popularity wasn't there anymore, but I was dead wrong. Mariah's career/brand started falling apart when her focus switched from doing what she loved and getting money from it to doing whatever for money. (Wednesday 31 May 2017; 22:31)

Re: Mariah lost the plot after Memoirs (75,914) (75,917) by T from USA And that's what I believe is happening to Mariah at the moment. It's too bad she cannot see it. But I think a lot of times it has to do with a mental state of mind (ego) more then anything. That's why the ones that reach iconic status like MJ, Kanye, etc tend to fall off the deep end. The only mega superstar that I can see has kept her cool (didn't loose the plot) is Madonna. I don't know how she's managed to keep such a thick skin all these years. For a woman who built a career out of changing every two seconds, she sure has stayed the same in a grounded sense. (Wednesday 31 May 2017; 21:47)

Re: Can we all get along? (75,915) (75,916) by G.G. from USA No, you are hypocrite, and completely transparent. Because someone you liked died, you now want everyone to play nice. You rarely say anything nice to anyone on this board, and are consistently the most negative about Mariah, other board members, and her fans. But because you say so, now the dynamic should change? Get out of here with that fake crap. Cry me a river full of your crocodile tears. (Wednesday 31 May 2017; 21:27)

Re: Can we all get along? (75,906) (75,915) by Andrew from UK I think you've just shown yourself for what you are. Not sure the issue is mine, buddy. (Wednesday 31 May 2017; 19:02)

Re: Mariah lost the plot after Memoirs (75,908) (75,914) by MusicfanJ from Germany Hilton your posts are great. I do believe as you said that if Mariah wouldn't have changed her "formula" everything would look better for her. And even if the industry changed a lot, I'm sure more people (fans or let's say listeners from day one) would still buy a "Mariah album". It's funny that you mentioned Kanye West. I also loved the "College Dropout" and never cared about his personality. But if I hear a song now I just have to think what a strange/arrogant person he seems to be. So his music is very rarely played because of the dislike. (Wednesday 31 May 2017; 18:01)

Re: I was born at night, not last night (75,910) (75,913) by Licia from USA I'm just shocked that Shawn is even talking about his family. I unfollowed him a while ago because I thought he was rude. Does his Twitter bio still say that he doesn't talk about his family? If so he needs to go back to that and just hush. (Wednesday 31 May 2017; 16:10)

Re: The stars are out (except one?) (75,889) (75,912) by Licia from USA I'm not going to lie and say I'm not disappointed in her not being involved, but what can you do? (Wednesday 31 May 2017; 15:36)

Re: The stars are out (except one?) (75,882) (75,911) by Kay from Thailand On Twitter, someone asked what Demi Levato hadn't signed up, and her reply was, "Because I wasn't asked." So, possibly performers have been approached by the organizers and not the other way round? I guess Mariah could express interest, but there's no telling if that's happened behind closed doors. (Wednesday 31 May 2017; 15:34)

Re: I was born at night, not last night (75,907) (75,910) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter By shading Stella do you mean what he said about how the person who leaked the news shouldn't have done that? Is he really shading her though? Last time when he went on a spree talking about how only he is loyal to Mariah, I thought it was shade, now I don't know. If true, I wonder if he ever spoke to MC about his feelings regarding Stella. (Wednesday 31 May 2017; 14:43)
