About C from United States: I am Daydream

Celine, Mariah and lip synching (107,014) by C from United States
This type of sycophancy is dangerous and unhinged.

Infinity video (106,887) by C from United States
What about the video was great in concept? The scenes that were in the teaser that didn't show up in the final video would have been better than the live shots.

What’s left? (106,883) by C from United States
For Daydream30, what's left unused/unreleased/in the vault that we want? I wouldn't mind a hybrid album of Daydream and Ugly Daughter, it could be sequenced in the order the made the songs or a thematic paring. For example, if she was working on ABMB during the day and Dememted during the night, those songs can be sequenced together. Call the hybrid project "Maladaptive Daydream".

Daydream rehearsal footage. We're more likely to get tour footage from this show because she would be less critical of the vocals (why I believe we will never get [Rainbow] or [Charmbracelet] tour footage).

She will likely make Looking In the acapella release like she did with Outside on [Butterfly] or [Music Box] on MB. However, I'd love to have the album version of Fantasy be released acapella. There is so much going on in that song that it needs to be fully appreciated.

Have we ever understood why the full Daydream photoshoot has never been released? Why was only 1 picture used for artwork and a single? We need to see the whole shoot. There are lq outtakes that suggest there are several pics in the shoot

I'd love to hear some [Daydream] demos or different takes of songs.

If indeed the OSD video is the actual recording of the song, release the entirety of the footage so we can see how the song came together in real time.

May Céline inspire Mariah? (106,882) by C from United States
Why do lambs do this? You said, "Mariah's not interested in selling out stadiums anymore." How do you know that? Are you on her team? Who books a venue to perform and doesn't want it to sell out? You all say these counter-intuitive things to make Mariah seem so above it all. To paraphrase Whitney, "It's called show business." Mariah isn't getting on stage because she loves performing (her last few years on stage show us that). She needs the money. She has bills to pay like we all do.

Mariah's been mum of late ... oh no please no (106,881) by C from United States
None of those sites are ever accurate. Everyone knows that. Regarding MC16, "hopes and prayers".

Mariah's been mum of late ... oh no please no (106,880) by C from United States
You said everything that needed to be said. I wish someone on Mariah's payroll would sit her down and tell her this. What it says to me is that commercial, general public, chart success is important to her (like it is to any performer). It's also important to the lambs - look how crazy and braggadocios they get in December. So the whole "she's done everything", "Mariah doesn't care about charts/has nothing to prove" argument is a pure lie. If she would put the same energy into new, smart, collaborations and her dead stage performances, she would be on the right track.

E=MC2 / Bye Bye (106,874) by C from United States
Bye Bye was mid, at best, WBT clone. That it got to #19 on the charts was a testament to the great momentum of TMB and the heavy album promo than the songs own merits. I remember reading a review from a listening party that said BB was a cross between Breakdown and One Sweet Day. Then I heard it months later and was severely disappointed. It would be interesting for her to bring it back in a live show but in a completely re-tooled, slowed way.

Sip my tea (106,807) by C from United States
I'm currently at this music-related conference. I spoke with this woman who is a biographer/historian of women musicians, so of course I bring up Mariah. She tells me that she is voting member of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction committee. She told me about the woman who gave an impassioned speech on why Mariah should be inducted and the people cried. Then there is a music journalist who is here. I walk up to him and say, "Hey, Alan. I'm a huge Mariah Carey fan. In 1997 you told the Baltimore Sun this about Mariah..." Shocked, he laughs, and we chat about Mariah and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame - he, too, is a voting member.

Spring or fall album release preference (106,784) by C from United States
You mean "you hope" she's realized that she needs to step out of her comfort zone.

I remember there was a battle between TGIFY and the Gloria Estefan and *NSYNC duet for #1 the week TGIFY finally made it there.

The Boy Is Mine 2.0 (106,782) by C from United States
I don't like the processing in B and M's vocals. I couldn't even tell that was Monica in the second verse. Maybe that affect works in Ariana's voice, but it made B & M sound like AI. It is a fabulous song though. This type of mid-tempo is what I would love to hear from Mariah.

She has been practicing lip synching (106,781) by C from United States
Can I ask a real question? What does all of this defense do for you? You have crafted an entire defense that sounds absolutely fantastical. What unspoken truths don't you want to say out loud that you've been compelled to craft this argument to provide some cognitive dissonance in order to remain a "real lamb"? I want to understand the psychology behind this "slay, queen" mindset in the lambily.

Rainbow 25 (106,780) by C from United States
Even she has "forgotten" some of the #1 hits. We're in a safe space here - we don't need to use those "defend my queen" arguments that we use in other places. Y'all have overplayed that #1s argument so much that if one of these new girls ever gets 20, y'all will be sick about it. Look at that way [Old town road] destroyed some of yall. Let.

Praying for the album (106,779) by C from United States
I actually don't want her in album phase right now. I like her hopping in remixes (she needs to time them better). Madonna been doing the same thing. I'd like yo see Mariah collaborate on random songs and do some soundtracks. That way, she can create music without all of the pressure of having to promote and carry the outcomes of its success or failure-primarily the failure. It would also give her a chance to update her sound and experiment - she's got to get out of the rut she's been in since 2005. I'd love for her to collaborate with international artists. Jump in a remix with a popular Australian artist. Collab and sing the hook on a track of a popular Asian artist. She could do so much more without having to do a lot. There is so much emphasis placed on #1 hits, but we would all take a solid top 10 hit from her that actually stays in the charts for a while.

Tiny Desk (106,778) by C from United States
I say no because Mariah is so uptight and stiff that she wouldn't be any fun. It's like her carpool karaoke - it was stiff, dull, and she wasn't warm or engaging. And then we have the vocals. TD is about a vibe and being in a moment. She'd want to move cameras and lighting to play into her diva antics and insecurities. Her setlist would be dull and predictable. When it comes to banter, she'd either be distant and muted like she was on the Jennifer Hudson show, or she'd be manic and rambling. Lastly, she's so in her head about her vocals that I could see it taking 6 months for TD episode to come out because she'd want to edit, dub, etc. Plus, TD is an all live venue, what 5-7 songs would Mariah sing that would 100% live that she'd be okay releasing to the public?

Debut and Emotions anniversaries (106,738) by C from United States
Possibly. I think she has a very skewed outlook on her catalogue. It's why she has beaten MC to death.

Vogue World interview (106,713) by C from United States
I hate the way she often speaks in a non-definitive way. It can be hard to know if she's being fully honest - especially in print. Why not just say "no"? Her "who said that?" answer kinda gave me the impression that she didn't want to or couldn't speak about what may have been some truth to the rumor (a meeting with Lauryn, disagreement, label issue, etc).

I was wondering if that was 98 Degrees on the harmonies? So it's not really a "Mariah solo"? I wondered if those 2nd verse harmonies are Trey. He is listed in the credits.

The question becomes what do they mean by "original mixing problems"? Does that mean the mixes we've known for 25 years are not what she initially wanted? Are these new mixes what 2024 MC prefers?

I just realized that on Spotify the OG album has been updated with these new mixes and that's annoying. I was listening to the climax note of the Vulnerability interlude and the ending of that sustained note is missing something that was in the OG.
