Patricia Carey (112,097) by Anonymous from USA I wish Mariah would write a song about her mother. I know it's a lot to ask. She would be bearing her soul and would and to be the human version of herself, but I think it would be cathartic and offer her fans, the lambily, an introspective look into her mourning. Too soon? Maybe. But we got Sunflowers for Alfred Roy. Maybe we can a get a song for Patricia too. It certainly would be the most relatable topic. I'm not saying exploit her loss, but offer a window into her grief. (Saturday 25 October 2025; 19:43)

Confetti and Champagne (112,096) by Anonymous from USA I would say that the "lambs" are probably the only ones still supporting her and her releases. The general public moved on a long time ago. I buy the singles and cds but I never play them, it's easier for me to stream, and so I do, almost daily. Lambs getting the blame and the hate for no reason. We are the only ones who care.

Confetti and Champagne (112,085) by Travis from USA I do because the "Lambs" never support or show Mariah the love, ever. I would say, in my opinion that "Here For It All" is better than "Caution", yet, it's now her worst selling album for this time period to date. (Saturday 25 October 2025; 02:57)

Confetti and Champagne (112,076) by Anonymous from USA Give it about 6-8 years for MC 17, if not more. (Friday 24 October 2025; 13:51) this is a reply to message 112,066

Confetti and Champagne (112,066) by Bobby A from United States Haha. I didn't like it as much when the album came out, but I have to play it all the time driving home from work. I am looking forward to MC17 in 2027 and the return of JD. (Friday 24 October 2025; 02:33)

Anthony fellow lamb (112,068) by Anonymous from USA Where's Anthony? I miss his posts and his energy. I hope he comes back soon. (Friday 24 October 2025; 02:58)

Eric regarding my Avatar (112,067) by Anonymous from USA Hi Eric, I recently updated my avatar to reflect a picture or me but it looks offset and not centered. Is there anything you can do to fix that? Thanks in advance and thanks for this board. [Webmaster: I can't fix the avatar. If it's not a square, it will be cut to a square.] (Friday 24 October 2025; 02:44)

Hi Lambily (112,053) by Anonymous from USA I'd like to see the unpublished story. I always like to hear and read about people's experiences with Mariah. She has been there for our highs and our lows. (Thursday 23 October 2025; 14:20) this is a reply to message 112,033

Hi Lambily (112,033) by Gabrielle Demetriou from UK I wanted to share something that's lived in my heart for years - the day I met Mariah Carey in Manchester on March 18, 2016. I was heavily pregnant at the time, and what unfolded that evening has stayed with me ever since. Mariah was radiant - regal and real - surrounded by warmth, laughter, and that unmistakable glow that only she has. When she turned to me and asked about me, it was one of those rare, human moments that you never forget. I wrote a reflection called "Here For It All" - a personal piece about that meeting, how her music has shaped my life across generations, and what it means to me as a mother to pass that love on to my daughters. Mariah's music has been the golden thread through my life - in joy, heartbreak, and everything in between. She's been my comfort and my courage, and writing this felt like a love letter to the woman whose songs have always been there. Please comment whether you'd like to see the unpublished story.

Which song would've you picked? (112,042) by Anonymous from USA I Won't Allow It probably has the most potential. It's fun. It's dance. It's silly. It's relatable. There's so many good songs but the lead single should be a fun uptempo. Just my two cents. (Wednesday 22 October 2025; 23:57) this is a reply to message 112,026

Which song would've you picked? (112,026) by T from USA We all know now that Type Dangerous was the single that they all agreed was the best to launch the era and album. Now that we've lived with all the songs for a month which of the eleven songs would've you put all the resources into like radio deal, big budget music video, performances behind? Is there even one song that deserves all that or was TD the right choice? (Wednesday 22 October 2025; 15:51)

The impossible (112,017) by Anonymous from USA There were so many finger snaps I believe Mariah sprained an index finger. But I still love it. I don't mind the finger snaps. Truly under appreciated. (Wednesday 22 October 2025; 03:35) this is a reply to message 112,010

The impossible (112,010) by Dove from United States Yeah, I can't listen to the whole album all the way through because of the "finger snaps", which, to me, sound like hands clapping. It does get repetitive. That was one of my main complaints when the album first came out. (Tuesday 21 October 2025; 03:32)

A no no (112,016) by Anonymous from USA Me. I love A No No. I love the Caution album as well. The Distance was really good, Caution should've been a single. GTFO was my favorite though. With You was a solid record. (Wednesday 22 October 2025; 03:33) this is a reply to message 112,013

A no no (112,013) by Giovanni from USA Now that I'm over my replay of "The impossible" I'm now on "A no no". This song is a bop and the production is good. I wish we had gotten a long extended version as well as a remix with Ariana with some killer background vocals. I love the Caution album, it's in my top five favorites from MC. I even love the cover art as well. Anybody like "A no no"? (Tuesday 21 October 2025; 20:26)

Jesus I Do (112,015) by Anonymous from USA I can't believe this song turned out to be my favorite track on the album. I went to bed singing it and woke up singing it. I hate that the album has already fallen off the charts. Many people are missing out on one of Mariah's best efforts. The Clark Sisters really made the song better with their incredible voices and melodies. Mariah did her thang too. She put her stank on it, as we say. I love the entire album. I hope we still get a deluxe version. I try not to skip any songs since they all offer something different and evoke different emotions in me. She really does offer something for everyone on her albums and this one is no different. I don't care about the charts or the general public, and if Jermaine likes it, then I like it. (Tuesday 21 October 2025; 20:59)

The impossible (111,997) by Anonymous from USA I understand, it's an album that was polarizing for fans. Definitely one of her most underrated albums. My absolute favorite song may be Candy Bling. Inseparable, The Impossible, Languishing are also in my head a lot. The entire album had no skips for me. I didn't mean to trash Imperfect, it just doesn't work for me. I feel like it's missing something but can't pinpoint what it is. Probably just a difference in tastes. With time it may ver well grown on me. Songs just hit different for different people and Mariah makes sure to include something for everyone in her work. Lots of love (Monday 20 October 2025; 05:36) this is a reply to message 111,990

The impossible (111,990) by Giovanni from USA Didn't mean to trash "H.A.T.E U" I just don't like it. I think the video could have been better too but you're right the album is definitely good and I can't believe I hated it before. I think the reason I like "Imperfect" is because of the music and production. HFIA reminds me a lot of MOAIA with songs like "In your feelings", Confetti & Champagne" and "Nothing is impossible". I also played "Obsessed" a few times because it's catchy and heck Mariah looks good. I like "Obsessed" because it's the song that broke Eminem and he has never been the same since. I just needed "Languishing" to be longer. (Sunday 19 October 2025; 21:13)

My introduction to Mariah (111,996) by Anonymous from USA Nice story Stacey, thanks for sharing. Mariah's lyrics always hit harder than anyone else's. (Monday 20 October 2025; 05:29) this is a reply to message 111,989

My introduction to Mariah (111,989) by Stacey from USA It was 1993. I was 15 years old. I was vacuuming my family room. I had my back to the TV with VH1 playing Mariah's live performance of Hero. You know when VH1 and MTV actually played music videos, lol. I stopped and turned around and thought, that voice - who is that? The rest is history. Mariah has that ability to put my feelings into words. "You look at me and see the girl, who lives inside the golden world; but don't believe that's all there is to see; you'll never know the real me" - Looking In. "They can say anything they want to say; try to bring me down, but I will not allow; anyone to succeed hanging clouds over me; and they can try hard to make me feel; that I don't matter at all; but I refuse to falter in what I believe or lose faith in my dreams cause there is a light in me shines brightly; they can try but they can't take that away from me." Thank you MC for providing me an outlet these last 30+ years. (Sunday 19 October 2025; 18:09)

The impossible (111,985) by Anonymous from USA Personally I love H.A.T.E.U, the entire album was really good and well packaged. My least favorite song, Imperfect, did not make the cut. We really need a part two for the Memoirs album. (Sunday 19 October 2025; 14:44) this is a reply to message 111,981

The impossible (111,981) by Giovanni from USA All of a sudden I've become addicted to "The impossible". I have a new love for MOAIA minus "H.A.T.E U". I think it's the worst song on the album but "The impossible", "Candy bling" and "Standing O". I would like to ask Mariah why "Imperfect" did not make the album as it would have ended it perfectly. It's funny how an album will grow on you all these years later. (Sunday 19 October 2025; 08:21)

My introduction to Mariah (111,978) by Anonymous from USA It was 1993. A small town in Texas where the train tracks divided the white and black communities. Still does. To this day. Population. Less than 3000. In 2025 it's less than 1000. Some of my favorite people in my life and some of my favorite memories. My father still being alive mostly. 6th grade teacher, Mrs. B talked to the class about this girl singing this song called Hero and how she overcame a lot for her success and how talented she was. She was mesmerized by Mariah. One of my favorite memories now. Not knowing then that I would grow to absolutely adore this Mariah and be mesmerized by her eventually. To this day, I still love Mariah. More now than ever. Her latest artistic effort is a testament to her success and her talent. I love the new album. That's all. I feel like I don't share more personal things here because I've been guarded for so long. I hope everyone is having a great weekend. It's No Kings Day here where I live and it makes me very happy and emotional to see so many Americans doing the most American thing we can do, protest. Love to all. Especially to the fabulous and incomparable Ms Carey. (Saturday 18 October 2025; 23:24)

Hostage release Nothing Is Impossible (111,847) by Anonymous from USA There are anti fascists here, I'm one of them. Not everyone supports his authoritarian regime. Some of us have a brain. (Monday 13 October 2025; 17:58) this is a reply to message 111,845

Hostage release Nothing Is Impossible (111,845) by Edward from USA Don't mention Trump here, there are some extreme lunatics that would come for your throat, literally. (Monday 13 October 2025; 16:22)

Head scratcher (111,548) by Anonymous from USA I agree with you on the questionable single choices. I really enjoy I Won't Allow It, should've been the first choice. Type Dangerous is my least favorite song on the album and feels out of place with the album and yet I find myself humming it throughout out the day. I really enjoyed Jesus I Do and I'm, it's perfect, and I'm not a religious person. I can't stop paying the album. Glad you're enjoying it. (Saturday 27 September 2025; 13:01) this is a reply to message 111,541

Head scratcher (111,541) by Bill from the UK I don't understand why Type Dangerous and Sugar Sweet were chosen to launch the album when you had compositions like In Your Feelings, Nothing Is Impossible, and I Won't Allow It that are so much better, different to any other launch she's done before, and better represent the album's sound. It's to the point they sound somewhat out of place and I find myself skipping them so I stay in that 70s lane. I can't stop playing this album, it's so good. (Saturday 27 September 2025; 10:14)

And here it was (111,528) by Anonymous from USA My complaint is that it's too short. Before you know it you're listening to the end track of the album. Hopefully the rest of the songs will grow on you. I have no complaints about any single track. I just wish there was one or two more. (Friday 26 September 2025; 21:40) this is a reply to message 111,515

And here it was (111,515) by TJ from Norway So, what do you all think? I think there's a couple of songs that are OK, but I am not sure about the rest of it. The title song is definitely the best one. (Friday 26 September 2025; 17:09)

SZA/Apple (111,491) by Anonymous from USA I second your comment. Some of us liked and supported Mariah through the “Pariah” stage and loony tunes era. (Friday 26 September 2025; 07:54) this is a reply to message 111,460

SZA/Apple (111,460) by BFF from United States I found SZA to be really annoying in that interview ("Hi queen", "You are everything", etc. is just way too much). I definitely enjoyed the Gayle King interview much more. The whole "Flowers" concept and the performative fangirl routine from all of these "Johnny come lately" Mariah fans makes me roll my eyes. I ventured out on 9/11/2001 after they released us from school to buy the "Glitter" album and purchased multiple copies of the "Loverboy" single to help with the effort to get it to #1. I'm a fan who remembers when you would be pilloried for openly liking Mariah, so I am unimpressed by much of this lol. (Thursday 25 September 2025; 15:34)

Article: Album review: Mariah is "Here for It All" on new album (111,485) by Anonymous from USA I really enjoyed the entire album. It was, dare I say, cohesive. (Friday 26 September 2025; 07:00)

Looking back on Glitter (111,341) by Anonymous from USA It seems that since Rainbow there's been a lot of missed single opportunities. Except The Emancipation. That was an era. I wish we had something remotely like that again. (Saturday 20 September 2025; 17:58) this is a reply to message 111,335

Looking back on Glitter (111,335) by T from USA After Rainbow, and the D, F, H, H, first singles maybe 2001 was the moment she should've changed it up and not been so predictable with a lesser version of a first up-tempo single (sure if the original Firecracker was released that would've been better). But maybe the first single should've been her first single ballad since Vision of Love. New label, a reset. In hindsight I would've picked Lead The Way. It's Mariah's favorite song on the album and it's arguably the best song on the album. It would've won over the general public too, and that would've had a positive effect on the movie. Second single could've been, Loverboy. Then If We, followed by Last Night A DJ Saved My Life. Glitter was the original wrong single choices album. (Saturday 20 September 2025; 14:49)

Play this Song (111,338) by Anonymous from USA This is somewhat exciting. I'm tired of singles getting dropped and then immediately dropped from promotion. Mariah is going to have to actual promote if she wants this album and singles to do well. I caved in and preordered the album even though I think there will be deluxe versions coming later. At least I hope so. It's getting kinda boring. Other artists put way more effort into their art. She'll always have her hits and number ones. If she's happy with that, so am I. (Saturday 20 September 2025; 16:50) this is a reply to message 111,333

Play this Song (111,333) by Chicago Lamb from USA According to reports, Mariah's next single, "Play This Song" featuring Anderson .Paak, is set to drop September 26 - the same day as her new album Here For It All. The video is already filmed, and sources say it's big-budget and stunning. Fans can expect Mariah looking amazing, with a fun R&B groove that's perfect to dance to.

Packer (111,337) by Anonymous from USA Honestly, if I told you, I'd get banned. They know who they are and what they participated in getting us in the US to a fascist state. (Saturday 20 September 2025; 16:38) this is a reply to message 111,328

Packer (111,328) by Bill from the UK Who rattled your cage? (Saturday 20 September 2025; 11:55)

Packer (111,336) by Anonymous from USA I never needed or asked for you to advocate for me. Your heightened intuition failed you somehow. You just give off really big red flags. Stay away for me. Keep your fictional book too. I’m glad people can still worship whatever and whomever they want. For now. (Saturday 20 September 2025; 16:25) this is a reply to message 111,332

Packer (111,332) by Lambi from USA Honestly, after reading your comment, I regret advocating for your return. I stood up for you thinking you were misunderstood, turns out that was the real fiction. Maybe stick to Stephen King, at least his characters have depth. (Saturday 20 September 2025; 13:34)

Packer (111,324) by Anonymous from USA Personally, I prefer Stephen King for my fiction. (Saturday 20 September 2025; 10:03) this is a reply to message 111,307

Packer (111,307) by Lambi from USA That is hilarious. Yup, I've helped a girlfriend find out if she was being cheated on by looking at her man's tagged photos. She thanked me endlessly. I'm exactly like your friend, I analyze people to their core too. Usually, I just know if I want to be around someone or not. They might not have necessarily done anything, but something in my spirit tells me no. It's a great thing. I've always been pretty blunt as well, and I'm not afraid to call people out on their BS. Thanks, lamb. I'm a Bible-believing Christian, but you've just sparked an interest in me about zodiac signs. By the way, I may pursue being hired to be in Mariah's team soon so hopefully I get to relay a lot of lambs valid sentiments from here. It's not quite a solid decision yet though. Praying about it. Wish me luck. (Friday 19 September 2025; 02:38)
