About Billy from Greece: I don't know, and neither do you.

Re: More Rarities (vol. 2) (100,336) (100,343) by Billy from Greece I love this list. "Make You Happy" is a top favourite of mine and I would so love to hear Mariah do "Lillie's Blues (Turn You Loose)". (Saturday 28 May 2022; 09:47)

Re: Why I want another #1 (100,339) (100,342) by Billy from Greece Great post, Nikki. I agree in all respects. The same could be said about Diana Ross, at least post-Motown (just like for Mariah post-Sony). These ladies just didn't want to play ball. (Saturday 28 May 2022; 09:45)

Home for the Holidays (2001) (100,086) by Billy from Greece Some lovely undubbed moments in this footage. (Monday 4 April 2022; 19:14)

The Roof (Full Crew Club Mix) (100,085) by Billy from Greece Anyone else loving this remix? So moody, mysterious and cool. (Monday 4 April 2022; 13:30)

Re: How Greatest Hits should've played out (99,437) (99,448) by Billy from Greece I totally agree. It's sad that thirty years into her career the available greatest hits set focuses only on her first decade. I would love an elaborate retrospective but we ain't getting that. We got The Rarities though, which I absolutely loved, so that's something. (Sunday 16 January 2022; 21:58)

New song (98,855) by Billy from Greece Love it. Very sophisticated arrangement. (Friday 5 November 2021; 19:55)

The Adventures of Mimi (live at East Rutherford) (98,666) by Billy from Greece Great show. Love the raw vocals, so much more compared to the edited Anaheim show. (Tuesday 28 September 2021; 15:58)

Ex-Factor (98,555) by Billy from Greece It's only a snippet (albeit sweet) from the Rainbow tour but still it sounds so good hearing Mariah on my favorite Lauryn Hill track. (Friday 27 August 2021; 09:41)

Hero 2007 (98,499) by Billy from Greece I've been looking for this since forever! (Friday 6 August 2021; 18:38)

Home for the holidays 2001 - news report (98,485) by Billy from Greece This is rare and a true gem, with undubbed snippets of her performances that night, which were all gorgeous. I can't believe it's been twenty years since the Glitter era. (Monday 2 August 2021; 20:22)

Revisiting Whitney and Mariah's 2001 megadeals (97,795) by Billy from Greece Great, informed article. (Saturday 10 April 2021; 22:07)

Re: Top 5 music video eras (97,634) (97,639) by Billy from Greece Love your list enwar, although I would add Rainbow there as well. And yes, she was such a stunner during #1's. That super short scene of her in a blue dress walking on the street in the beginning of Sweetheart is so elusive and captivating. (Saturday 20 March 2021; 19:40)

"H.A.T.E.U. (Stripped)" (97,377) by Billy from Greece So good. (Tuesday 16 February 2021; 16:22)

Re: Taped performances during quarantine (97,351) (97,360) by Billy from Greece I've noticed it too. The thing is, her acapellas during 2020, or whenever you hear her voice stripped, do not have that quality and it sounds just beautiful. I guess it's a choice in how the whole performance is ultimately mixed, maybe to fit whatever "radio-friendly" standards are out there now, I don't know. In other words, it does not sound to me like it's another phase in her vocal evolution, but who knows. I just adore the essence of her voice and whenever you get to hear it at its most natural it's still captivating. By the way, the new arrangement of "We Belong Together" is just perfection, truly wonderful. (Saturday 13 February 2021; 12:00)

Re: Lullaby remix (97,262) (97,265) by Billy from Greece I also enjoyed it, enwar. Lullaby is one of my favourite Mariah songs. (Monday 1 February 2021; 09:06)

"Joy to the World" - San Jose 2003 (96,952) by Billy from Greece An awesome live (minus only a couple parts) performance of "Joy to the World" from the Charmbracelet tour. (Tuesday 15 December 2020; 16:25)

Showbizz 411 / Roger Friedman (95,853) by Billy from Greece I have really started to feel bad for this guy, having to write one sh*t "article" or "review" about Mariah after another. He must be a really miserable human being. Poor little Roger. (Tuesday 29 September 2020; 15:33)

Interview (95,734) by Billy from Greece How can I watch the interview without Apple TV+? Any ideas? Unless someone manages to upload it on YouTube before it's taken down. (Thursday 24 September 2020; 21:12)

Out Here On My Own (95,587) by Billy from Greece It sounds divine. (Thursday 17 September 2020; 20:43)

Re: Fourth of July (95,165) (95,168) by Billy from Greece Oh enwar, you're such a romantic. (Monday 24 August 2020; 10:37)

Re: Walter A. (95,135) (95,140) by Billy from Greece "he tamed her bipolar." Seriously now? (Sunday 23 August 2020; 01:21)

Re: Underneath the Stars - video (94,911) (94,915) by Billy from Greece Yes enwar, exactly my thoughts. I also assumed that it was just a performance video and I got those Butterfly vibes you mention. (Saturday 15 August 2020; 19:26)

Underneath the Stars - video (94,908) by Billy from Greece This is monumental, I can't believe it. (Saturday 15 August 2020; 01:22)

Re: Happy 30th anniversary Mariah Carey (94,369) (94,380) by Billy from Greece Oh how I love "Alone in Love". Virtual hug enwar. (Sunday 14 June 2020; 09:31)

Sweet Sweet Fantasy Tour (94,123) by Billy from Greece A little throwback to the consistency of the vocals of this tour. (Monday 18 May 2020; 01:01)
