About Sasha from Nomansland:

Go back to more simplicity (37,460) by Sasha from Nomansland If a Rhianna is able to reach the top with her horrible songs and awful voice (thanks to Jay Z), well there's nothing great about being a part of this crapy music industry. Number 1's doesn't mean anything anymore today. As Mariah has nothing to prove anymore, why doesn't she go back to something more real, basic, underground ? There is a real and authentic audience who's hiding there. No more artifices, complacency and superficiality, only voice and emotions, I'm sure she could benefit from more simplicity. I do think she lost most of her credibility because of her image and diva style. The girl needs someone to help her walking around because her shoes are too high and she wears too tight clothes she can't barely move or breath, it's getting ridiculous. Lord knows I miss the time when music what only about talent, emotion and voice. (Wednesday 20 March 2013; 18:51)

Paul (36,735) by Sasha from Nomansland As you said, Mariah had the recipe for the success, but I think it's mainly because she had at the time one of the most powerful music company working for her and was married as well with a powerful business man who focused all his attention on her and her success and knew exactly what to do to put her at the top of the charts. Of course she's talented, but without the "right" crew at her sides she can't make miracles. It seems now that she's working only with friends and people she trusts, which I can understand after what she went through with TM. There are a lot of talented poeple on earth who will never be known or famous and other so-called artists who make a lot of money only because they are around smart people. I'm not saying that she owns her success in the 90s to TM and Sony Music, but I wonder if she would have had the same career if she had signed a deal with another record company. What do you think?

Enwar - Without you (36,475) by Sasha from Nomansland It has exactly the same effect on me. I became a fan because of this song when I was a little girl and although I listened to it a billion time, it still moves me. It's Mariah's magic. (Wednesday 10 October 2012; 21:19)

First song (36,194) by Sasha from Nomansland I felt in love with her voice when I heard for the first time "Without you". I was 9 or 10 at this time. This song will always have a special meaning for me and although I listened to it a billion of times, it still gives me the goosebumps. My mother tongue is not English so when I was young I didn't understand the lyrics and I couldn't stand it so actually I can say that Mariah makes me want to learn English. I remember spending my evenings trying to translate her songs in French. Even if I don't understand all the choices she has made these last years, I'm still a fan and will always be. It's funny to think that it's been twenty years that I'm listening to her songs, I feel like they are a part of me and of my history. (Wednesday 29 August 2012; 9:04)

Just a thought (36,090) by Sasha from Nomansland I think the major problem of Mariah in her career is not her music but her image. That's why she never got the credibility she deserves and people or even fans get tired of her. Well that's just a thought. I may be wrong but that's what I feel. Triumphant is quite a nice song, I mean I heard worst from her these last years. Still waiting for something more mature though. (Thursday 23 August 2012; 13:55)
