About Zachariah from Croatia: Mariah Carey fan and professional member of automotive community - both got me feeling emotions.

Why everybody hates the girl we don't know (106,380) by Zachariah from Croatia You missed 23 years then. (Thursday 9 May 2024; 14:27) this is a reply to message 106,379

Why everybody hates the girl we don't know (106,379) by Jamie from UK I haven't really been paying attention to this, as much as she's not the best singer I always thought of her as an all rounder. I used to love her films and always thought she was down to earth. What's going on for all this to be happening? What have I missed? (Thursday 9 May 2024; 13:48)

Adressed to Infinity haters (106,356) by Zachariah from Croatia The video. The video is dumb and cheap. Immediately ruins the song for me. (Monday 6 May 2024; 07:52) this is a reply to message 106,342

Adressed to Infinity haters (106,342) by Matty from Vancouver Canada This is specially addressed to the Infinity haters. Can you explain to me what you dislike? It went to #82 on Billboard, it was well reviewed but critics, and the orchestration what brilliant. I'm curious why people that hate it, dislike it? My only personal grip is that the orchestration is so hopeful, and the lyrics are diss. (Friday 3 May 2024; 23:51)

Article: Daniel Bedingfield will release lost Mariah Carey duet (106,328) by Zachariah from Croatia When I have to google who Daniel Bedingfield is, I am sure that song sounds like crap. (Thursday 2 May 2024; 08:40)

Taylor (106,301) by Zachariah from Croatia Taylor's "cultural impact and craze" on the music industry today is exactly because of that, because she exists today, where social media, marketing manipulations and bombardment with feuds with exes and writing about them is highly accessible. If she started her career when Mariah started, she would be nowhere. Non existent. Mediocre singer with writing abilities only if she is in a team with 15 more people who are co writing the song. So please, let's not put Mariah and Taylor in any category together. Ever. (Friday 26 April 2024; 09:11) this is a reply to message 106,297

Taylor (106,297) by Tevin from USA Hi Tony, I'm going to assume that you were responding to my post. First of all, I never said Taylor and Mariah were in the same league, especially vocally. I said that they are both known for their song writing, which is true. Second unless someone is living under a rock, there is no denying (whether a person likes it or not) the cultural impact and craze that Taylor has on the music industry today. The only one close to having her impact is Adele, but due to vocal issues, she's been MIA. Third you may not be a fan of Taylor, I'd even admit that I'm not a fan of her last few albums, but there is no denying that some of her early work (especially the country music, not pop) was quality work, and like Mariah, she has been able to have major success in different music genres. It may not be your cup of tea, but just like some people didn't or don't like Mariah's music (which I personally think they are crazy for not liking) that doesn't mean that Mariah or her career is trash and the same applies to Taylor. Anyway I'm done talking about Taylor now, since this is a Mariah board, but we shouldn't trash or minimize other people's work, or achievements, just to put Mariah on a pedestal.

Not surprised (106,281) by Zachariah from Croatia She needs a solid pop/r'n'b up tempo song (or 2) - like Fantasy and Honey with chorus that can't be forgotten in 20 minutes. And it has to be released right before summer or early summer to have that impact all over the world. (Wednesday 24 April 2024; 09:29) this is a reply to message 106,277

Not surprised (106,277) by Robert-Anthony from United States MC just needs to release a fire album to get recognized by the music industry. She doesn't write the brilliant songs like she used too. If she would find songwriting partners like Madicin (Kenny Lattimore) or Daryl Simmons (Never Forget You) and write some R&B slow jams and love songs, then she would get back on top of the charts. What is it going to take for MC to get back to those brilliant songs? (Wednesday 24 April 2024; 00:48)

TEOM concerts (106,242) by Zachariah from Croatia I totally disagree. I watched all of the close videos from last concert and I can not see any lip syncing anywhere, especially, as you stated, the whole performance. (Sunday 21 April 2024; 11:13) this is a reply to message 106,239

TEOM concerts (106,239) by Xavier mariohmix from Spain Ok. So if you see this video containing the whole concert from that perspective, you would think that there could be some lipping, but the rest would be mainly live. But if you see all the Mariah videos from the first concert uploaded 7/8 days ago on this channel, you truly can see the real thing happening, that is, she's lipping everything except for 5 specific moments throughout the entire concert. The recordings are so zoomed-in that it is so evident. Besides, sometimes she skips phrases, she starts miming two seconds later or she's just too lazy to pretend to be making an effort on the belting parts. As I said before, at least, we have new high-quality recordings of most of the songs. To be honest, I became aware of the lipping thing (you know, the lipped parts of some songs) back in 2008. At that moment and after analyzing so many performances, I realized that she had been doing it from 1997 (the belted section of Honey at Top of the Pops, for example). It was a total and complete letdown, and I took my time to process it. I'm a huge fan and I'll always be. I'll keep following her forever. For sure, she uses lipping for whatever reasons, some of them have been explained or theorized here and I can agree with them, but it is a fact. And right now it has come to a point where almost the whole thing is. Anyway, we love her. (Sunday 21 April 2024; 01:39)

I am confused (106,190) by Zachariah from Croatia I don't know why such a harsh criticism about her voice - I didn't notice any lipped performances. I am confused - she sounds so good, why would she lip? It is getting tiring to read constant dissertations about her voice here. Regarding the prices - you guys are very lucky for being able to come to see her. For us in Europe, that is unimaginable. (Tuesday 16 April 2024; 08:47)

Article: Mariah Carey adds dates to her Las Vegas' residency run (106,139) by Zachariah from Croatia This is so satisfying to read. While J.Lo is cancelling dates, Mariah adds them. (Friday 12 April 2024; 08:15)

Article: Fans suspect Mariah is "teasing" a new era of music (106,123) by Zachariah from Croatia Glitter 2 in making? (Sunday 7 April 2024; 20:02)

Merry anniversary (106,046) by Zachariah from Croatia Dear Mimi, merry anniversary and God bless. Lots of love from Croatia. (Wednesday 27 March 2024; 12:16)

Spotify numbers (106,010) by Zachariah from Croatia Being a guest in talk shows and being funny. (Tuesday 19 March 2024; 11:43) this is a reply to message 106,007

Spotify numbers (106,007) by Robert-Anthony from United States I am sitting here trying to figure out what significant event in MC's career during last five years caused a huge increase to 90.5 million in Spotify sales. Besides AIWFCIY, the only event that I can think of is MC30. Do you think that event is the reason? (Monday 18 March 2024; 23:02)

Emojis (106,006) by Zachariah from Croatia Thank you on clarification. I was wondering what is happening because I didn't get anything. Well, whatever she is doing - it will be epic. I am sure of it. (Monday 18 March 2024; 21:20) this is a reply to message 105,999

Emojis (105,999) by Bill from the UK Some unreliable rumour account on X posted an emoji of a butterfly along with a bunch of others, and apparently this now means Mariah is working with Taylor Swift, Lady Gaga, Katy Perry, Beyoncé and others on a charity single similar to "Just Stand Up". In other words, all you've missed out on is post after post of unsupported speculation following someone on the Internet posting a butterfly emoji. (Sunday 17 March 2024; 07:44)

Emojis (105,993) by Zachariah from Croatia Can someone explain to me - emojis? She posted something? I don't get it. (Friday 15 March 2024; 22:02) this is a reply to message 105,990

Emojis (105,990) by Robert-Anthony from United States I think that I have figured it out. It's another Stand Up For Cancer song. The campaign steps into high gear in late March/April. (Friday 15 March 2024; 13:19)

There goes my heart again (105,986) by Zachariah from Croatia Because I don´t like Taylor Swift. I despise her. She doesn't make memorable music and her melodies are forgetful. To be fair - I don't like any new artists from today. Literally no one. They all make boring and stupid music. (Friday 15 March 2024; 08:45) this is a reply to message 105,976

There goes my heart again (105,976) by Tevin from USA Why is it disappointing? (Thursday 14 March 2024; 15:50)

There goes my heart again (105,975) by Zachariah from Croatia If she collaborates with Taylor, I swear, I will return my lamb card and stop being a fan. I barely accepted a duet with Ariana wannabe Mariah, but this, this will be so disappointing if it happens. (Thursday 14 March 2024; 11:13) this is a reply to message 105,970

There goes my heart again (105,970) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Glad to have someone join me in my la la land of hopes and dreams haha. If Mariah actually collaborates with Taylor that'll be my biggest shock. Their music is so different and they were never really "close". I mean they both praised each other on multiple occasions but who knows. Plus I was thinking with Mariah being besties with Kim, Taylor would want none of this because of their feud but I mean Selena (who is Taylor's bestie) is on good terms with the Kardashians because her sister is friends with their kids. Anyways I'm on a tangent rambling here like Mariah rambled in 2014 haha. As for the YAR streams I did see it. (Wednesday 13 March 2024; 15:58)

Caution and Eternal Sunshine (105,959) by Zachariah from Croatia I don't think that is the whole case. I mean, she sounded amazing during Christmas concerts just a few months ago, hitting all the notes. I think she is just doing things carefully and more comfortably. Which is very fine. (Tuesday 12 March 2024; 07:41) this is a reply to message 105,948

Caution and Eternal Sunshine (105,948) by Robert-Anthony from United States I believe MC is hurt that she doesn't have her range like she used to, record her songs like the way she is used to recording them. You know she is a perfectionist and loves to add different vocal techniques and runs to her songs. I bet it just hurts her that she can't do Lead The Way runs anymore. (Monday 11 March 2024; 15:09)

If Made For Me was MC's (105,946) by Zachariah from Croatia With You is my wake up alarm melody. Shake It Off is my ringtone on my company cell and It's Like That [is the] ringtone on my private phone. And yes, I am 43 years old and I don't apologize for this. (Monday 11 March 2024; 08:25) this is a reply to message 105,944

If Made For Me was MC's (105,944) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter I like With You though. It may not be a strong single but it's a beautiful song. (Sunday 10 March 2024; 22:45)

Layout is epic (105,909) by Zachariah from Croatia I love it. Thank you. (Friday 8 March 2024; 19:37)

Mariah never lied or let anyone on (105,888) by Zachariah from Croatia This is so annoying to read and I really don't like your presence here. You just spoil everything and any hope for us who are hoping for an album to arrive. (Thursday 7 March 2024; 07:50) this is a reply to message 105,884

Mariah never lied or let anyone on (105,884) by T from USA Mariah will headline two festivals this summer, she'll do Vegas in the spring and then a massive Christmas tour starting in November. That's the extent of it this year guys. That's all I can say. (Thursday 7 March 2024; 01:04)

Mariah never lied or let anyone on (105,874) by Zachariah from Croatia It is annoying - the waiting and just being in the dark. Whatever she is doing, I hope it will be epic and and then some because I am sick of hearing Taylor and Beyonce everywhere and Mariah only during Christmas time. And I am sick and tired of being asked the question "We never hear anything from Mariah?" or "When did she release anything new?" It. Is. Exhausting. (Wednesday 6 March 2024; 08:26) this is a reply to message 105,871

Mariah never lied or let anyone on (105,871) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter While I can appreciate her desire to stay private and not post studio photos until things are close to ready, same could have been done about all the projects she said are going to release any moment in the last 2-3 years. In the last few years things we got from her were actually things she never even alluded to like Rarities, Latto and Ariana. Forgive my impatience haha I see so many releases being announced and none from Mariah. (Wednesday 6 March 2024; 00:45)

Breakdown (live in Perth - footage) (105,850) by Zachariah from Croatia Yes. It is just not her. (Sunday 3 March 2024; 15:15) this is a reply to message 105,849

Breakdown (live in Perth - footage) (105,849) by Robert-Anthony from United States Is it her ensemble? (Sunday 3 March 2024; 14:07)

Breakdown (live in Perth - footage) (105,847) by Zachariah from Croatia I wish I didn't see this. (Sunday 3 March 2024; 13:45) this is a reply to message 105,846

Breakdown (live in Perth - footage) (105,846) by Billy from Greece Here's a little something for you. (Sunday 3 March 2024; 06:36)

TEOM era will probably the last great era (105,781) by Zachariah from Croatia Triumphant, 100%, I Don't and GTFO I absolutely adore. (Tuesday 27 February 2024; 13:17) this is a reply to message 105,777

TEOM era will probably the last great era (105,777) by Robert-Anthony from United States Yes Mimi. They come on strong and then everybody forgets about them the next week. Do you remember the following? 1. Triumphant 2. 100% 3. I Don't 4. Infinity 5. GTFO 6. Save The Day 7. In The Mix However, there is one that beats all seven of these that I mentioned and it should have had a proper video with a huge radio impact. 1. Out Here On My Own (Tuesday 27 February 2024; 01:39)

I hope Mariah never releases anything anymore (105,771) by Zachariah from Croatia Boy in a Punjabi remix is epic. (Monday 26 February 2024; 22:51) this is a reply to message 105,767

I hope Mariah never releases anything anymore (105,767) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Boy was really ahead of its time. Also fun fact, the video shot was actually for "The One" but it was later switched to "Boy". (Monday 26 February 2024; 16:57)

I hope Mariah never releases anything anymore (105,681) by Zachariah from Croatia Her voice is fine now, as we heard on recent Christmas shows. At least I did. My problem is a dumb collaborations on a dumb song. That's all. (Friday 23 February 2024; 08:40) this is a reply to message 105,674

I hope Mariah never releases anything anymore (105,674) by JC from United States This is suppose to be a Mariah fan board, all I've seen is negative uncalled for opinions on Mariah and her voice, you guys think she's a robot? I recently saw a video of twitter spaces, some lamb had the balls to tell Mariah that every time she performs the lambs wonder if she will hit a g7 or how high she will go. Meanwhile this lamb works at Burger King but thinks he knows everything about her voice. I noticed this was her last time on twitter spaces. You guys are ruining this for her, y'all don't know anything about her voice or what's going on, have some respect for the woman who supposedly you say saved your life with her music. I really hope she doesn't release anything new. Why would she? Just for you guys to disect and judge her voice condition. I used to love this board, before all the lambs became vocal teachers.
