Michael Jackson spells trouble for Mimi (43,231) by Nina from USA I just heard Michael Jackson's duet with Justin Timberlake "Love Never Felt So Good" and my prediction is it's soon to be #1 and may very well be the song of the summer. (Friday 2 May 2014; 20:44)

Her right hand/arm (43,230) by Michele from USA I'm thinking she might need pressure on it because of nerve damage, much like a compression stocking for legs. Or maybe she does have a scar because of surgery on it from last year's injury, but it's nothing to be embarrassed about. (Friday 2 May 2014; 20:35)

Possible lyrics to Thirsty? (43,229) by Reuben Walton from United States [censored] If these are real, I enjoy the subtle/vague shade throwing, and swagger. If not, does anybody know? (Friday 2 May 2014; 19:37)

Preorder (43,228) by THE TRUTH from USA Paul, the pre-order mechanism makes controlling chart position (for a digital album) easy for the promotion team. It's easy to watch and ensure a number 1 digital debut. The music biz has been run like this since the beginning, there are always tools to game the system. It's not necessarily good or bad, it's just a reality. (Friday 2 May 2014; 19:36)

Kick Rocks (43,227) by Reuben Walton from United States I wonder what happened to this song. She mentioned it in an interview with DJ Suss One. It's funny because "kick rocks" is a phrase my friend uses pretty often, she's not a fan of MC but that's why it was funny when I told her. (Friday 2 May 2014; 19:28)

Almost Home (Alternate Version) (43,226) by Eternal from Italy All the lambily need to listen to this alternate version of Almost Home, if you haven't heard already. The initial instrumental and bridge part is completely different, and I actually find it much more beautiful this way. There are also some additional vocal parts by Mariah. I already like the original version, but I prefer this alternate version. (Friday 2 May 2014; 19:26)

Paul (43,225) by Gilbert from USA This is response is just for myself. I did the pre-order just for the satisfaction that it's been ordered. You never know it might get released a day earlier from iTunes but at the end of the day it doesn't matter. I won't be charged for it until the day it's released. So for me it was just really out of excitement. I ordered the standard since I really don't see a point in the deluxe version with a song I already have and 2 others that were really just a copy and paste remix. (Friday 2 May 2014; 19:05)

Ready for (43,224) by Gerald from USA by the way of NYC I am so ready for this new era/album. I just ordered my copy from Amazon and watching the big billboard reveal in Time Square spoke volumes to me as far as MC's place in pop culture and her love for what she does and for her ever so loyal fan base. I really feel we have something special on our hands in the coming weeks and beyond with this album and era and I am so glad to be apart of it. Yes I am thirsty lol. Peace and blessings Archives family. (Friday 2 May 2014; 18:46)

iTunes US (43,223) by andy from philippines I just saw a post on twitter that "Me. I Am Mariah ... The Elusive Chanteuse" is currently number 1 on iTunes US. (Friday 2 May 2014; 18:06)

Mariah Carey in New York - Times Square (43,222) by QueenMc from Usa, California Mariah Carey announces 14th album, "Me. I Am Mariah..." (Friday 2 May 2014; 17:56)

Respond to Adam (43,221) by Outsider girl from Mars In the accident she suffered while she was doing #Beautiful remix video she damaged her nerves pretty much and unfortunately she can't move two of her fingers properly. Like if she would have those nerves dead (you can appreciate it in YME video and in her recent interviews). Obviously MC doesn't want to show her fingers that way. She always wants to show a flawless person and show her disabled hand is not on her plans. You know how obsessed Mariah is with her left angle because good results in plastic surgeries are not promised for anyone. Mariah has lots of insecurities and she has tried to solve them [censored]. We can't judge her for it. Anyways, back to the point of her injury. People were laughing at her like: "Once again she is in her diva mood, telling the world how awful it was having a disclocated shoulder," but indeed it was a really serious injury because of the nerves damaged. At this point, I think doctors did the best they could and sadly maybe she is not gonna get her mobility back anymore. (Friday 2 May 2014; 17:36)

Mary J Blige and R Kelly (43,220) by Darryle from USA I just thought about it but both songs that these artist are working on are similar to songs they've done themselves. Mary J has a song called It's A Wrap and R Kelly has Trapped In The Closet. I'd love it if Mariah found a way to incorporate a piece of Mary's song into hers. I'd like die if the R Kelly version of BGK was added to Trapped In The Closet or if Mariah was in the video. It would be super funny and give Mariah another chance, shows that she's funny and she can act. (Friday 2 May 2014; 17:20)

Pre-order (43,219) by Chicago Lamb from USA Yes, you definitely want to pre-order either version as this will boost the albums first week sales when it debuts on Billboards Hot 200 chart. I've got my deluxe version placed, lets get Mariah another #1 album. (Friday 2 May 2014; 17:09)

Paul D (43,218) by Licia from USA She basically lit of Times Square with billboards of her album cover. I don't live in New York , but I found out through Twitter. It spread like wildfire. (Friday 2 May 2014; 17:02)

Pre order on iTunes, why? (43,217) by Paul from Usa I just don't understand why you would preorder a digital release? This makes sense for a physical copy because it's like putting a deposit or hold in cases where they have a short stock. Can someone explain why on digital release? Thanks. (Friday 2 May 2014; 16:53)

Issac Ortiz (43,216) by Paul from Usa What a deeply disturbed individual. Nothing better to do than create fake accounts. If you search him on YouTube and Google play he attacks a lot of other people online. Thanks for giving him the boot webmaster. (Friday 2 May 2014; 16:51)

Mariah's arm (43,215) by ADAM from USA Does anyone know why she keeps concealing her right arm in a glove? She mentioned recently on ET Canada it was to remind her to exercise it, but does that sound fishy to anyone else? Is she hiding a scar or veins protruding (ala Madonna)? (Friday 2 May 2014; 16:30)

Times Square (43,214) by Paul D from USA So Mariah decided to take a walk/do a photo op in the middle of Times Square. Why else was she there? Was there an event or a show taping? I'm upset because I live in NYC and didn't even know about this. It would've been nice to have joined the crowds. A lot of people there had signs made, so they must've known before hand that she was going to be there. (Friday 2 May 2014; 16:25)

Snippet (43,213) by QueenMc from Usa, California Snippet surfacing on YouTube, Mariah Carey "You Don't Know What To Do" featuring Wale. It's not Mariah singing, it is the same girl who sang "Everytime' on the Glitter soundtrack. She is a backup singer who did backup vocals for Mariah during the Glitter era. This is an old strategy they use to prevent new material from leaking on the internet. This also prevents new and old artist from stealing ideas from the original artist. Many fake audio clips will be surfacing on the net in the next couples weeks. (Friday 2 May 2014; 15:04)

Minx (43,211) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Any snippet you may have heard on YouTube is most likely a fake one. There are many files on YouTubes which are basically combining the ringtones that Mariah recorded for Pepsi back in 2005-06 exclusively. Mariah has been guarding the materials to the new album very closely and I am sure not many people have heard them, apart from those close to her and obviously the label. She didn't even play the new songs at the conferences she had so the chances of leaks are pretty slim. (Friday 2 May 2014; 14:57)

Me. I am Mariah (43,210) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter The album is now at #6 on the iTunes USA charts. I hope it steadily climbs to number 1. This album has to be big for Mariah because lots of people are just writing her off and she doesn't deserve it. She is one of the most talented vocalists in the world and people need to be reminded of it. I am glad Mariah has started to promote the album pulling over the top stunts that only a diva of M's caliber can pull. She's got the articles buzzing about her magazine covers and her album cover and album name. Whether they are praising her or cringing at the photoshop overload, it doesn't matter. No publicity is bad publicity (well unless it's really very bad). I don't mind the photoshop. M is, as we all know, naturally gorgeous, but if they decide to make the covers more "magical" I see no problem with it. I loved the album cover. A lot of people are talking about how weird the name is. And I am like whatever, it's perfect. As long as people keep talking, the general people will start getting curious, and that will give the album a chance to fly all the way to number 1. I also hope she picks up atleast one if not multiple number 1s from this album. We gotta aim for The Beatles' record now dahlin' and only Mimi can do it. (Friday 2 May 2014; 14:36)

Is real? (43,209) by Minx from Are the "snippets" found on YouTube really some of the songs that we will be hearing on this next album? Because if it is like that I'm not very happy. I did hear a bit of a song with a title that is not on the track list that I loved but I don't know either if that one will be included. I wish Mariah the best. But I honestly feel that she hasn't evolved her music since Butterfly and the last album I purchased was Emancipation (my husband gifted me E=MC2 once, it was a fun album but not memorable). At least with iTunes you get to choose what songs you might like. So far, I'm not pre-buying because I don't want to not like it, I won't build up much expectations but as mentioned before by other people, it has been 4 years already. If there is not an evolution or the brilliance of her first albums I will keep my hands down. I loved her badly in the past and I really want to keep liking her but it is so hard. Please utter ubber fans don't get offended, I say all this with respect and whatnot. I used to be a die hard fan when I was a teen but those days are long gone. I still support her but I'm not much into all this. I don't want to say it to not make it sound bad but I will share with you my opinion [censored]. Thanks for reading. Much love and I wish Mariah the best. (Friday 2 May 2014; 13:39)

Webmaster (43,208) by Licia from USA I have been gone for a little while and it makes me very happy to know that Isaac is gone. When I read your message I danced a little. Seems I came back at the right time. Lol. (Friday 2 May 2014; 10:35)

Isaac (43,207) by Webmaster Eric from the Netherlands Did you know Isaac Ortiz creates every day a new fake account and starts insulting everyone on this messageboard? Of course I delete all his messages and accounts immediately, but still after all these months he keeps trying to get his messages posted. I find this very funny. (Friday 2 May 2014; 10:22)

Song titles (43,206) by Trish from USA I know I'm jumping to conclusions but the names of the songs scare me. Other than "One More Try" the names have trendy rings to them instead of classic sounding song names. I was hoping for a return to classic Mariah ballads for a few of the tracks but seeing the song names I think I was wrong. Also beyond disappointed there's no Stevie Wonder duet. Final thought is the deluxe version should have several more tracks on it, I mean 4 years in the making and it only offers songs she recorded for her last album and a track we all heard months ago? (Friday 2 May 2014; 9:56)
