Re: Favourite ending (99,790) (99,795) by SM from Citizen of the World "All I've Ever Wanted" is my favorite Mariah song. (Monday 28 February 2022; 15:15)

Re: Tommy’s Mariah (part 3) breaking down (99,791) (99,794) by RibbonB from USA Nah, that looks absurd and repetitive of so many things before. I can't imagine M or her team wanting to stream that. Now a "Stellar" reel would at least be more current and interesting, but she would have no interest in retelling what she has tried so hard to ignore. The general public really isn't interested in these old tales. IMO. (Monday 28 February 2022; 14:37)

Re: Favourite ending (99,789) (99,793) by Jamie from UK You know my love for that album also Bill especially Everything Fades Away. It’s a masterpiece. (Monday 28 February 2022; 14:03)

Fantasy (99,792) by Bobby A from United States Fantasy is number 3 on iTunes R&B chart right now. Can MC make another Fantasy that samples another Tom Tom Club song or even Wham's Everything She Wants? I believe she could have another top 10 pop song if her next single is a sample and summer jam.

Tommy’s Mariah (part 3) breaking down (99,791) by 123 from USA I've been waiting for the YouTube channel realizing the dream to work on, finalize and post this part. This was a very well put together piece of work that should be on Netflix. Wish Mariah's people would get behind it, support the creator and get it on a steaming network. It would be a nice precursor to her movie/mini series on her memoir. Here is the link for anyone that wants to watch it. (Monday 28 February 2022; 07:08)

Re: Favourite ending (99,789) (99,790) by Edward from USA I fell in love with "Everything Fades Away" the first time I listened to it, but to me it was evident why Mariah had left it out of Music Box. It's a great song, never a filler, but it doesn't flow well with the rest of the album, in my opinion. Yes, I've played the album several times making it the last track after "All I've Ever Wanted", but not matter how many times I played it, while I enjoyed the song, it fell totally disconnected from the rest of the album. "All I've Ever Wanted" is a killer powerful song as the last track. It was sad though that the first time some lambs from this side of the pond first listened to "Everything Fades Away" was when Napster and mp3's became popular around 1998, nearly five years after Music Box was released. A few years later, after Charmbracelet, having additional tracks for fans on the other side of pond didn't make sense anymore, but when it happened, the quality of the tracks were more of left over fillers from the album sessions. "Sprung" on the international version of TEOM was just an awful track, in my opinion, same goes for "Heat" on E=MC2. (Sunday 27 February 2022; 20:55)

Re: Favourite ending (99,786) (99,789) by Bill from the UK Such a great ending, you're right. It's such a masterstroke to end Music Box with such a poignant closure. It's so weird/unfair that the US fans never experienced Music Box the same way the rest of the world did, as it adds a whole nother layer to the album, and is probably her best closing track.

Re: Hey Lambs? (99,784) (99,788) by MusicfanJ from Germany "Ultimate music video library on digital (1990-present)." That would be awesome. I wanted to post something similar with the war in Europe right now, I know it's a music site here, but I still can't believe what happend just two hours away by the air. Corona is finally going away, and now the sad news. I was hopeful for 2022, but that changed quickly. I have no words. (Saturday 26 February 2022; 18:23)

Re: Hey Lambs? (99,783) (99,787) by Bobby A from United States It is almost March and still no news about what is definitely coming in terms of MC16. I am really sure she is hard at work on it. This year will give her 32 years in the music business. In addition to MC16, maybe she is preparing to release her first box set consisting of The Rarities 2, MC30, and The Butterfly Lounge. Something exciting is on the way for sure. (Saturday 26 February 2022; 17:53)

Re: Favourite ending (99,779) (99,786) by MusicfanJ from Germany That's easy: "Everything fades away", the whole outro with the last 30 seconds is the most beautiful thing I've ever heard. Wowowo it only fades away, it only fades away, baby don't tell me. Heavenly. (Saturday 26 February 2022; 17:44)

Don't play that song for me (99,785) by MusicfanJ from Germany This song needs to be on the Rarities part two. How I wish she would record a pure soul or jazz album. Music with real background singers and musicians (not just beats) are missing. I always loved the Price Sisters and Melonie Daniels, they were truly the best and made Mariah's music even more magical. (Saturday 26 February 2022; 17:38)

Re: Hey Lambs? (99,783) (99,784) by Anonymous from USA I know that I'm super excited for any new material. I want a brand new studio album, a new Christmas album, The Rarities Volume 2, then Volume 3. I want the Glitter movie released on digital with much more bonus material than the original DVD. The Mariah Carey ultimate music video library on digital (1990-present). I also want to see Mariah on the silver screen playing a role written specifically for her. I think she's hilarious but I'm afraid a lot of people don't understand her sense of humor. I hope everyone is safe in the Ukraine, it's horrible what's happening right now. I can't believe it's 2022 as to hear the word war again. The local news in Atlanta called it World War 3. Stay safe, send good thoughts and prayers to the Ukrainian people and everyone affected by this and have a great weekend. (Saturday 26 February 2022; 16:46)

Hey Lambs? (99,783) by Angel from USA Who's anticipating a new album already? (Saturday 26 February 2022; 04:56)

Re: Favourite ending (99,779) (99,781) by RibbonB from USA The "You and I" fade out. Mariah's adlbs are excellent. (Friday 25 February 2022; 17:36)

Re: Dennis (99,778) (99,780) by Bill from the UK So glad you are okay Dennis. (Friday 25 February 2022; 16:54)

Re: Favourite ending (99,777) (99,779) by Bill from the UK With ABMB, do you mean the wall of sound "you and I" fade out, or the live version that ends with the opening guitar strum? Personally both are superb. (Friday 25 February 2022; 16:43)

Re: Dennis (99,776) (99,778) by Dennis from Miami, FL I'm in Montevidro, Uruguay today, at work, I'm a seaman. Everyone at home is safe. Everything will be alright. Let's keep this place free of politics, it's my shelter right now. Thank you for asking TJ. (Friday 25 February 2022; 02:47)

Re: Favourite ending (99,773) (99,777) by RibbonB from USA Ribbon, LULT, Faded and the most iconic, Always Be My Baby. (Friday 25 February 2022; 01:33)

Dennis (99,776) by TJ from Norway Am I wrong, or is there a Dennis from Ukraine on this board? I hope you're safe, and that everything will turn out OK soon. (Thursday 24 February 2022; 23:58)

Re: Favourite ending (99,772) (99,775) by Bill from the UK Yes, Heartbreaker's acapella run down at the end is superb when you hear all the harmonising parts, really shows the "wall of sound" thing Mariah does so well. And yes, when I first listened to WBT for the first time I was nodding my head along nicely to it thinking it was different, a bit Breakdown-esque with the rapid fire delivery of the lines, and then the key change made me sit up and do exactly as you say haha. (Thursday 24 February 2022; 22:00)

Re: Favourite ending (99,769) (99,774) by Bill from the UK I just watched this one again Bobby A as it's been a while, you're right, great delivery and the gentle end she brings the song to is beautiful. I Still Believe is so underrated. (Thursday 24 February 2022; 21:58)

Re: Favourite ending (99,771) (99,773) by Edward from USA Wow, I've always thought the same thing. Mariah is great, but those girls elevated everything she did to another level, and she's always known that. Kelly Price was very pregnant when the "Mariah at Madison Square Garden" was taped. There was an ambulance ready for her in the back if she needed it, that's how important these amazing backup singer were for her and her music. (Thursday 24 February 2022; 17:20)

Re: Favourite ending (99,766) (99,772) by tadatorao from japan We Belong Together seems like an obvious choice. The ending immediately urges one to listen to the song from the beginning all over again. Not to mention the MTV Movie Awards live, albeit pre-recorded. Personally I like Heartbreaker with the stripping down harmonization towards the end, almost like a reverse of the building up at the song's beginning. Very satisfying. (Thursday 24 February 2022; 09:05)

Re: Favourite ending (99,768) (99,771) by Bill from the UK The original Fantasy is just pure ear candy, I love it. I too miss the Price Sisters and Melonie. What an era, and what a collective sound they all made. Honestly I sometimes think their contribution to Merry Christmas is massively overlooked. Without them it wouldn't sound half as amazing as it does. (Thursday 24 February 2022; 08:43)
