Merry Christmas SACD (107,881)
by Bill from the UK
| |
|
|
Hello all, a flying visit to say a belated Merry Christmas and an advanced Happy New Year to you all. The new super audio CD of Merry Christmas by Mobile Fidelity sounds fantastic. If you have a decent hifi set up and a good pair of headphones, it's worth investing in, as personally I think it is the best the album has ever sounded. There's so many nuances to unearth, I find with each listen I'm discovering more about an album I thought I knew inside out. I only wish the debut, Emotions, Music Box and Daydream would get the same treatment one day. Love to you all.

Last Christmas (107,866)
by Shezz from Pk
| |
|
|
It's interesting to see the [Spotify] daily charts (USA) have All I Want at #4 on [Christmas] day with Brenda Lee on 1. Mariah never made it to number1 on USA [Spotify] daily charts the whole of the last week (whenever I check). I suppose Spotify isn't the most popular streaming platform in the US since she's been consistently number 1 on the BB streaming charts. Globally she reigns supreme of course with the overall [Spotify] numbers.
The [Netflix] NFL bit was cute. A little too short I thought but I suppose they just wanted to use the song as more like opening credits to their [Christmas] presentation. Crazy how versatile and representative it is. Rockin' Around and Last Christmas would have never worked.
Hope everyone celebrating had a great [Christmas].

Last Christmas (107,865)
by Edward from USA
| |
|
|
I had no idea they were giving "Last Christmas" a push with multiple releases this year. You'd think people might be getting tired of "AIWFCIY", but judging by its streaming numbers over the years, it's actually getting more popular every year.
"AIWFCIY" performance on Global Spotify on December 24th over the years:
2024: #1 - 24.86M
2023: #1 - 23.7M
2022: #1 - 21.27M
2021: #1 - 17.42M
2020: #1 - 17.22M
2019: #1 - 12.02M
2018: #1 - 10.81M
2017: #1 - 8.06M
Numbers don't lie.

Steflon Don has been like a thorn in Mimi L.'s paw since 2019 and I love her for it. It's hard to get over what the remix of A No No with the rumoured high profile features could have been. Instead we were given Teflon Pan.

I love that her last 3 collaborations have been with female artists. That was always rare for her, it was always mostly male rappers if anyone was on a track with her. I would love to know what is going on. Why does she have so many plans simultaneously with not much coming to fruition. I am sure it is a lot more complicated than we know. Legal issues, label issues, health issues, vocal issues - we are being forced to speculate. I'm almost to the point where I wouldn't mind another cookie or beverage. Almost.

We love a positivity so go RA spread that cheer. I however feel similar to what others mentioned. I think making new music is really at the bottom of her priorities right now, let alone bringing the TEOM energy. It could be that she isn't currently on a label and doesn't want to release a solid body of work until she has logistics in place. She also seems more excited about her biopic rather than an album. We've been hearing she's got 10 songs ready for a while now and she has yet to lay vocals. TEOM Mariah wrote 4 bangers in a span of less than 48 hours. She was hungry back then she had something to prove, I think right now she has fully embraced her "legend" status and "retired until Christmas" status. Music will always be special to her and sometimes her inner Mimi comes out hungry to make a splash that's why she tried jumping on many hot remixes in recent times, but I don't know why she always jumps in by the time the momentum is gone. I will ofcourse always be hungry for new Mariah music so I hope she releases a full body of work soon (unpopular opinion I could not care less about her alt rock album). I would love a collab album with some fresh and current stars especially female artists.

I 100% agree with you there Edward. Do you think it's because she has created a lot of music over the last 30 odd years and doesn't have much inspiration or drive to do more or because she knows her new music doesn't sell at all and hence doesn't feel motivated to put new music out any more? I feel she is motivated by success and that's why she puts more of an effort into the Christmas seasons? Does she even have a record label contract currently?
I do feel she has one more album left in her and we will get something in the near future. I have a feeling she is still searching for her sound and hasn't created anything that really excites her yet hence when she talks about new music her old excitement isn't there yet.
Robert Anthony I hope her next album is more of a fun pop record - ofcourse she will always have her ballads but I wonder if going back to her old formula of a Fantasy/ Heartbreaker/ Loverboy/ Dreamlover etc type of first single release would serve her better?

I hate to rain on your parade, but Mariah's passion for creating new music doesn't seem to be the same as it once was. Even when she talks about it, there's a noticeable lack of the excitement she used to have when she couldn't wait to share what she had been cooking up in the studio. She's far from being in the vibrant "Mimi era" energy.
She should team up with some big names like Rihanna, Beyoncé, Ariana and a few others to release a collabo album. It feels like only her core fanbase is eagerly anticipating new music from her.

Brenda rebounded to number 1 giving Mariah only 1 week in the middle of her 3 week reign last season but Brenda and the label heavily promoted it for the anniversary. But yes, you're right, Mariah will reign supreme this time.

When Brenda hit number one last year, it was only for the first two weeks. As Christmas Day gets closer, Mariah's numbers are way stronger than Brenda's. I'm pretty sure Mariah will stay at the top for a third week, and most likely a fourth week as well.

Talk of the Charts has Mariah at number 1 with a tight 5 point lead over Brenda Lee for next week in its midweek prediction (chart dated 28th December with tracking week ending on 19th December). Let's hope she holds on for a 3rd week at #1. She could possibly have a 4th week as well for the tracking week ending 26th December.
If all goes her way, she could get her longest number 1 title back next year - this time solo.

I hope so Edward - fingers crossed. Though she is played much more globally, US Spotify daily charts has her on number 5 and Brenda Lee at 1 so the week after could get tough. She is number 1 on iTunes though. So she has 2 weeks confirmed this year then the next 2 it seems might be more of a battle. The NFL Netflix performance will help her for sure.
I hope she gets well soon and has a good last concert - pity she had to cancel 3.

Mariah Carey's "All I Want for Christmas Is You" is the most-streamed holiday song of all time and officially the first holiday song to break 2 billion streams. Congratulations, Mariah. The way I see it, Mariah will stay on top until the end of the year.

Mariah is projected to be #1 next week by Talk of the Charts. Will Brenda Lee gain steam and take over in the coming weeks? I love how Hot 100 becomes exciting now every December.
Bar Song tied Old Town Road last week for 19 weeks at number 1, then got knocked off my Lamar. If Mariah gets 2-3 weeks at #1 this year, she might be in the running to take that title next year.

I want the latter to happen just to see this happen haha. "Brenda might knock Mariah right out of her stilettos and snatch her wig off or Mariah might have Brenda relocated to a nursing home for a couple of weeks." Jokes I think AIW has a good shot this year. Is she now competing with Old Town Road or Tipsy? Because I think Tipsy has the most weeks at number 1 right now ya? I could be wrong. I'm tired of these one hit wonders dethroning our queen, I would have been fine if it was one of bigger artists.

Billboard 100 (107,723)
by Shezz from Pk

TJ's point still holds though. How is AIW higher on Hot 100 than Rockin' Around if the latter is number one the holiday charts? Maybe Hot 100 uses more or different measuring metrics than the holiday charts or the tracking dates might be different?
Reminds me of a similar question I have for the Grammys at times. Sometimes songs that have won song of the year or record of the year have not gone on to win in their respective pop/rock/country etc field. You're saying this was the best song all year across the board but it wasn't the best pop song?

These are clearly two distinct charts. The Holiday 100 focuses exclusively on Holiday music, while the Hot 100 considers music from all genres, making the competition significantly tougher. As you can see, only a few of the currently most popular holiday songs have made their way onto the Hot 100.

Isn't AIWFC projected to chart at #10 this week? Why are we so worried about it not doing well this year?. It's charting one week later than last year but pretty high - probably just missed the top 25 mark last week. It is strange how Last Christmas debuted at 38 with that rule. It is my second most favourite Christmas song of all time - I'd be happy if it gets to number 1 as well. Of course she has nothing left to prove but having the number 1 song in the country will always be a big deal to the lambily and of course to Mariah.

New music? (107,654)

To be honest, if Mariah wasn't reserving this year for something big for this anniversary, what was stopping her from finishing her other projects like MC16, TBL, etc. I get she was doing shows, but they weren't so intense that she didn't have time to finish her projects. I was thinking she's avoiding releases this year to focus on the anniversary. Even the Netflix special I thought it's a documentary turns out it's just a taping of her show.

Same here. She did it for the 25th anniversary so it was doubtful she'd do something major again for it so soon. I think it's too late for her to announce something now. Let's hope MC16 sees the light of day soon.

by Shezz from Pk

Everyone's pretty quiet about the Christmas shows. I've not seen too many videos but she seems to be singing live a whole lot more than what she did this past year from the few that I have seen. I like that she's ditched the nutcracker body suit for her famous Santa suit. The sets again don't look as festive as they have been in the past though - she needs the big Christmas trees back again. So happy she's singing again (not completely of course but this is still great).

She definitely is. You can see the life back in her face - no more Stepford wife-esque. I have a feeling her energy will be back this Christmas tour. No idea if her previous demeanor was medical or emotionally based or both but either way she’s definitely getting her groove back.

It's clear she: A) gets super inspired during this season and puts in extra effort. B) She gets good financial backing because this is the season she sells.
I wonder what's happening with the MC30 release. It is November already. Her previous Christmas efforts were all released by now but no date yet. I'm sure she has something big planned by the looks of all that she's been up to.

Who is on her creative/promo team? Why can't the level of creativity and concept that went into the "it's time" video go into other endeavors January to September? To be clear, I don't just lay the blame on the team because M isn't a passive bystander.

Why does she keep saying she's "trying to get it out but doesn't know how"? Seems like there's more to it. First she told us she was collaborating with a younger artist on it (why does she need anyone on it we want to hear her voice on those songs?).
Robert Anthony you want to chime in? You always have an interesting hopeful take with your Mariah theories.

The new interview (107,566)
by MusicfanJ from Germany
| |
|
|
That was really a good interview. It was nice to read. Best one since a long time. I also think "Miss you (most at Christmas time)" is one of the saddest. It's another classic and should get more attention. I love this song so much. Her answer with Happy Xmas (War is Over) is how I always feel too. I guess every human with a heart gets emotionally with it. I also can't wait for the alternative rock release. And the new album of course. I wish Mariah would get another Grammy, she doesn't need it, but it's so overdue. Maybe with the rock or jazz album.  But for now I'm excited for the upcoming BBC special.
