Got a thing 4 u (40,452) by Tony from Ireland I do love Long Ago, it is just stunning. I agree that it is a bit cheesy but, I like everything about Glitter, and still loving it. There's another Mariah collaboration that I really enjoy every time: Da Brat's "Got a thing 4 for u", she sounds so sexy on it. Even "Did I do that" from Rainbow has a special place for me. (Tuesday 7 January 2014; 21:40)

Random (40,451) by clueey23 from USA I wouldn't mind a "MC & Friends" album, with songs like "It's A Wrap" with Mary J. Blige and "Yours" with Justin Timberlake amongst other songs that are duets that haven't seen the light of day. With a couple of new duets. That would make my year! But this new album is about to make my year in a way because when MC doesn't have anything out there's a huge void in music. IMO. (Tuesday 7 January 2014; 21:02)

Favourite songs from each album (40,450) by Musti from UK My top 2 track from each album: Mariah Carey - Vanishing/Alone in Love Emotions - The Wind/Can't Let Go Music Box - Anytime You Need a Friend/Never Forget You Merry Christmas - Silent Night/Jesus Oh What a Wonderful Child Daydream - Looking In/Melt Away Butterfly - Breakdown/Honey #1's - Sweetheart/Do You Know Where You're Going to Rainbow - Heartbreaker (Remix)/Bliss Glitter - Twister/All My Life Charmbracelet - You Got Me/Lullaby TEOM - Fly Like a Bird/Don't Forget About Us E=MC2 - Last Kiss/Touch My Body Memoirs - Candy Bling/Inseparable MCIIY - When Christmas Come/O Come All Ye Faithful (Tuesday 7 January 2014; 20:41)

When I Saw You (40,449) by Musti from UK I never really liked that song lol find it quite boring actually. I could definitely see it cut out of the album, though I'm not sure Slipping Away is polished enough to be included the album. I recall Mariah mentioning a song allegedly called Crave that she wrote for Daydream which was left out of the album for being too sexy. She later named her first record label Crave. But I would love to hear the song Crave as it's probably one of Mariah's first attempts at a sexy jam before writing songs like Babydoll and Bliss. (Tuesday 7 January 2014; 20:27)

Edward, are you nuts? Haha (40,448) by Stacey from USA Being a huge fan of Daydream, my all-time favorite MC album, how could you leave out Daydream Interlude? MC is known for her amazing remixes. I remember hearing ABMB with Da Brat and Xscape for the first time. It was amazing, almost as good as the album version. I said, almost, lol. It's all good. Honestly, the two songs I skip the most are Long Ago and Melt Away. But, truthfully the entire album is just masterful. That is when MC was at her best. That album showcases her amazing talent. There was and is still something for everyone on that album. Daydream is sheer perfection, IMO. (Tuesday 7 January 2014; 19:50)

Everything Fades Away (40,447) by Lamb_O_Chop from Australia This is my face (to the right) when people say they don't care for this song. I mean really, is that even possible to not absolutely adore the magical vocals and one of a kind arrangement of this masterpiece? (Tuesday 7 January 2014; 19:31)

More importantly (40,446) by Blake from USA Instead of leaving tracks off of amazing albums, I can't help but wonder what "Butterfly" would have been had it been completed as in the eyes of Walter A. Rainbow was the first album I disliked a track: "Did I do that?" Charmbracelet: "Boy I need you". Glitter: "Loverboy". (Tuesday 7 January 2014; 19:17)

Webmaster, oh no you didn't, lol (40,445) by Edward from USA Eric, I honestly wouldn't change anything from Daydream. I am curious to know which two tracks you would leave out of Daydream should you be forced to. It is weird how Daydream and Music Box with only 10 and 12 tracks were so powerful. (Tuesday 7 January 2014; 17:16)

Favorite songs per album (40,444) by MCfanATL from USA I was always find things like this fun to do, so here goes (and I agree, it's hard to pick just one): Mariah Carey: Vanishing, All In Your Mind Emotions: Can't Let Go (love this video, too) MTV Unplugged: Someday (love this live version) Music Box: Music Box, All I've Ever Wanted Merry Christmas: AIWFCIY, Miss You Most (such a great song) Daydream: Fantasy, When I Saw You, Daydream Interlude (brillant and pioneering) Butterfly: Butterfly, The Beautiful Ones #1's: When You Believe Rainbow: After Tonight, Bliss Glitter: Loverboy, All My Life (Btw, I've heard a lot of chatter on this messageboard about this album. Quite frankly this album was brillant, and musically progressive. Nowadays everyone is using 80's beats, samples, and synthesizers. MC ushered that into the 21st century, folks.) Charmbraclet: The One, I Only Wanted TEOM: Shake It Off, Circles, Get Your Number E=MC2: Touch My Body, For The Record (one of my favs) MOAIA: H.A.T.E.U, More Than Just Friends (a lot can be said about this album, but it's a consistent listen) MCIIY: Oh Santa, The First Noel/Born Is The King Non-album singles: Do You Think Of Me (I adore this one) Everything Fades Away (should've been on the album) Endless Love (two of the greatest voices together) Do You Know Where You're Going To Help Me Make It Through The Night (country Mariah) (Tuesday 7 January 2014; 17:11)

Long ago (40,443) by Webmaster Eric from the Netherlands Edward, you silly boy. Daydream without "Long ago" is like café au lait without milk. Have you ever listened to this song with your headphones on? (Tuesday 7 January 2014; 16:52)

When I saw you (40,442) by Edward from USA Those of you implying that Daydream could've been fine without "When I Saw You" should be put in jail, lol. There is no waste in Daydream, but if I were forced to leave two tracks out, they would be "Long Ago" and "Daydream Interlude". Whoever suggested "Open Arms" should be crucified, lol. Daydream though not as vocally powerful as Music Box is more soulful. (Tuesday 7 January 2014; 16:34)

Re: Will and Ashley (40,441) by Ryan from the Philippines Will, "There For Me" was a good song but IMO it was an overly generic Mariah ballad. TAOLG's overall production can even beat that of TFM's, but to exclude the lyrics lol. Ashley, yes I thought about "When Christmas Comes" too, but as you can see with my selection all the tracks vary from different things and the firsts of all the succeeding similar songs she released in her entire catalogue. WCC to me is like a Christmas version of "I Don't Wanna Cry" and "Mine Again". And "Christmas Time Is In The Air Again" was something new to my ear. It has this theatrical/animated film OST feel. (Tuesday 7 January 2014; 16:24)

Loverboy vs Triumphant (40,440) by Blake from USA I do not like either of these singles. I think Loverboy was cheesy and using Cameo on the track did not help. The video was terrible too. The track is just not good to me. Triumphant could have been a hit had it had a pop release with a radio mix that resembled the vintage throwback, even though she needed to write another verse for it. I hope the original version doesn't make the cut for the new album. The message is awesome especially because it's written for Nick and his health issues sometime back but it could be her worst single ever in my book. Loverboy is a close second for worst singles. What do you think of these two singles? (Tuesday 7 January 2014; 16:15)

Fav or the fav (40,439) by Blake from USA Debut - There's Got To Be A Way/I Don't Wanna Cry Emotions - So Blessed/Til The End of Time Music Box - All I Ever Wanted/Music Box Merry Christmas - O Holy Night Daydream - Forever Butterfly - Close My Eyes Rainbow - Petals Glitter - Lead The Way Charmbracelet - My Saving Grace TEOM - One and Only E=MC2 - Love Story/Migrate MOAIA - Angels Cry/Languishing/Betcha Gon' Know MCIIYOU - Christmas Time is in the air again/One Child Non-album: 1. Everything Fades Away 2. Do You Think of Me 3. Slipping Away 4. There For Me (Tuesday 7 January 2014; 16:09)

Favorite songs per album (40,438) by John from USA Good idea Ashely. I'll play too, but as you can see, it's hard to pick even one song per album lol. Mariah Carey - "Someday" (my favorite Mimi song - wish she'd bring this one back) Emotions - "Make It Happen" and "Til the End of Time" (tie) Music Box - "Anytime You Need a Friend" Merry Christmas - "Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)" Daydream - this is tough, because Daydream is my fav album. I'll go with "I Am Free" and "Fantasy" (tie) Butterfly - "Honey" (Smooth Version) #1s - "I Still Believe" Rainbow - "X-Girlfriend" and "Can't Take That Away" (tie) Charmbracelet - "Bringin' on the Heartbreak" TEOM - "Mine Again" and "Say Somethin" (tie) E=MC2 - my second favorite Mimi album. This one's tough. "Touch My Body" and "I'm That Chick" (tie) MOAIA - "It's A Wrap" and "HATEU" (tie) Merry Christmas II You - I have to admit, I rarely listen to MCIIY so I can't really pick one. Random Singles since 2011 (lol) - "Almost Home" (Tuesday 7 January 2014; 15:39)

Glitter (40,437) by Tony from Ireland I really think Glitter is full of jewels, the best song for me is "Lead the way", I still getting emotional eveyrime I listen to it. Plus "Loverboy" makes me wanna dance, and "Want you" is sublime. (Tuesday 7 January 2014; 15:19)

Favorite albums per album (40,436) by Ashley from United Kingdom Mariah Carey - Sent From Up Above Emotions - To Be Around You MTV Unplugged - Someday (Live) Music Box - All I've Ever Wanted Merry Christmas - Christmas (Baby Please Come Home) Daydream - Melt Away Butterfly - Breakdown #1's - I Still Believe Rainbow - After Tonight Glitter - Lead The Way Charmbracelet - Subtle Invitation The Remixes - Honey (Classic Remix) The Emancipation of Mimi - Mine Again TEOM Ultra Platinum Edition - Don't Forget About Us E=MC2 - Thanx 4 Nothin' Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel - Inseparable Merry Christmas II You - When Christmas Comes Non-album Tracks: 1. Slipping Away 2. Do You Think Of Me? 3. There For Me Well that's wasted a good 10 minutes before I head out to work! (Tuesday 7 January 2014; 10:23)

Will (40,435) by Licia from USA I completely forgot about There For Me. That song is just wow. Brings me to tears listening to that song knowing where she was at in her life when it came out. Such a beautiful song. (Tuesday 7 January 2014; 10:01)

Shocked (40,434) by Will from Australia I can't believe nobody has mentioned "There For Me". (Tuesday 7 January 2014; 6:22)

Positivity / My All/Stay Awhile (40,432) by Alex from England I'd like to take a minute and say how great it is to read positive comments about Mariah and her music. Also I'd just like to know if anyone else thinks My/Stay Awhile remix will never be surpassed as an R&B/HipHop remix? I remember when I heard it on the radio in my home-country, France, when I was 15. I had fallen in love with her the previous the same year with the song "Butterfly". To promote #1's she had done an interview for a popular French radio and after playing some of the new tracks they just announced the next song to be My All and then that remix started playing. I was like "What is this song?" I became obsessed with it and managed to record it on my cassette player. It took me 3 years to finally get my hands on the CD single, the longest 3 years of my life haha. Still to this day, that remix is for me the most amazing remix I've ever heard from her and God knows how I love most of her remixes. (Tuesday 7 January 2014; 1:50)

Re: KaizenOcean and B, thoughts (40,431) by clueey23 from USA KaizenOcean, I totally agree with almost everything you said about MC. The only thing that I was thinking is "TAOLG" should wrap up the album, be the last track. I've been in love with the song. The music and those background vocals are everything. Not to mention MC and Rodney Jerkins production. It's so very different for Rodney Jerkins, I've never heard him produce anything so classic and timeless before. But I agree with everything else, great post. B, I feel the same about those songs. I couldn't take Music Box without the uptempos or Daydream without "When I saw you". That production and vocal on that song are just out of this world. I can't wait to hear MC sing pure love songs. Who wrote on Tamar Braxton's "Love and War"? She has some really great pure love songs on her album. Also Brandy's album from 2012 was on point as far as just pure love songs. I can't wait. I hope we get a beautiful r&b record on 2.14.14 and a classic r&b album in the spring. I can't wait. Also, loving MCs new pictures on Facebook. (Tuesday 7 January 2014; 1:45)

No, no, no (40,430) by B from USA Now That I Know, I've Been Thinking About You, and When I Saw You are three of my favorites. When I Saw You is perfection. I love Slipping Away, it should have been included but not at the expense of another song. It's what made the Always Be My Baby single a must own. I'm not a fan of Everything Fades Away. The other ballads on the album are far superior. (Monday 6 January 2014; 21:24)
