About B from USA: Slowly but surely®™ The Vindication of B ®™ "There are people called haters and we give them positivity" MC

Re: Madonna's classic is not Drowned World (73,782) (73,798) by B from USA I love Take A Bow. I really wish Mariah would work with him again. Melt Away, Never Forget You, and Everytime I Close My Eyes are classics. (Sunday 19 March 2017; 12:56)

Re: Mariah's masterpiece - Edward and Andrew (73,793) (73,797) by B from USA I like the incoherent dreamlike sequences in the Butterfly video. (Sunday 19 March 2017; 12:45)

Re: Madonna's classic is not Drowned World (73,780) (73,781) by B from USA Ray of Light. (Sunday 19 March 2017; 00:28)

Re: What happened to Mariah's personality? (73,752) (73,763) by B from USA She's always been the quirky diva that she is today and has been since 1997. Prior to that she was micromanaged and advised to have no personality whatsoever because bland sells. Your only redeeming quality is your looks, if that's really you in your avatar.

Re: Celine Dion vs Mariah Carey (73,691) (73,701) by B from USA Barbra and Celine both have throaty theatric voices (vocals). Celine and Barbra both lip. Everyone lips. (Thursday 16 March 2017; 14:33)

Re: Most played MC song in iTunes (73,689) (73,698) by B from USA Three way tie: Breakdown, The Roof, and Side Effects. (Thursday 16 March 2017; 13:45)

Re: Poke & Tone (The Trackmasters) (73,686) (73,695) by B from USA I would also love for Mariah to work with The Trackmasters again. I'd also add Dave Hall ans David Foster. I'm desperate to hear the song or songs she wrote with Diane Warren. Hard to believe Butterfly is about to turn 20 later this year. (Thursday 16 March 2017; 13:42)

Re: Celine Dion vs Mariah Carey (73,687) (73,693) by B from USA Mariah's catalogue trumps Whitney's and Celine's combined. (Thursday 16 March 2017; 13:36)

Re: Celine Dion vs Mariah Carey (73,690) (73,692) by B from USA Celine, like Whitney was, is an interpreter of songs. However, Whitney was the better interpreter. In their primes Mariah was the better singer followed closely by Whitney. Mariah and Whitney had universal appeal, Celine is an acquired taste. I still own Falling Into You, her best album. Mariah was friends with Whitney and is friendly with Celine. It's all subjective and based on personal preference anyways. (Thursday 16 March 2017; 13:35)

Mariah and Lionel All The Hits (73,661) by B from USA First the date was postponed and now it's been canceled and my money was refunded. I'm disappointed but at least I was able to attend the second night of her Las Vegas residency. Which just so happened to be the night they filmed the Infinity video.

Re: Celine Dion vs Mariah Carey (73,656) (73,660) by B from USA Everyone has insecurities however ours aren't on display for the world. (Wednesday 15 March 2017; 13:22)

Re: Celine Dion lipsings and it's ok? (73,647) (73,651) by B from USA Celine isn't respected in the US. Her last hit was That's The Way It Is the early 2000's. Mariah's last hit was in 2013. I Don't in a month has almost as many views as Infinity and You're Mine (Eternal) combined which means the public is becoming more receptive to her. If she can make a comeback after Glitter she can surely make a comeback after Mariah's World and Stella's dictatorship. (Wednesday 15 March 2017; 03:43)

Re: Celine Dion vs Mariah Carey (73,639) (73,650) by B from USA Celine's voice is nothing like Mariah's, neither is her delivery which is why her voice is in better shape than Mariah's. Celine lips just as much as Mariah, she just takes it more seriously. Mariah knows how to lip so the only justification for her poor flipping is self sabotage. (Wednesday 15 March 2017; 03:37)

Re: Shining through the rain vocals (73,546) (73,572) by B from USA "If you have a magnificent voice and you write such compelling songs, why are you dressing like that?" A source close to Cohen says the comment, published in the Financial Times, wasn't a dig. "Lyor was just saying, 'Let's get back to the music'," the source assures us. "He wants her to forget about the glitz and concentrate on songwriting." Carey's rep says, "Mariah trusts Lyor and his terrific team." Taking Lyor's advice to break free of collaborators, Carey has written almost all the songs on her next CD, due out in December on her own MonarC label. This proves my point. She listened to him and Charmbracelet was the result. Lyor spoke with Mariah after Glitter bombed, he gave her the blue dress she wore during her performance of the National Anthem at the Superbowl, and he signed Mariah even though everyone thought he was crazy because she was considered past her prime. His influence on that album and era are undeniable. (Sunday 12 March 2017; 16:06)

Re: Shining through the rain vocals (73,536) (73,541) by B from USA I think her vocal delivery on the Charmbracelet album was mandated by the label to make her as appealing as possible. She even dressed and acted more ladylike with poise and class. (Saturday 11 March 2017; 22:30)

Singles only (73,521) by B from USA Mariah plans to release standalone singles instead of albums and this is the best career choice (decision) she'd made in years. Album sales are down, it's a proven fact. Mariah will release an album once she scores a hit. She doesn't need to release a single every six months or every year. Or think her collaboration with Busts should be her last single until next year. She needs to work with Bruno Mars and The Smeezingtons and Miguel. (Saturday 11 March 2017; 01:00)

Lionel and Mariah announce rescheduled tour dates (73,519) by B from USA Glad I didn't listen to the naysayers that said the tour would be cancelled after the delay announcement. Lionel had knee surgery and it didn't heal properly so they had to delay the tour. This happens all the time. Rescheduling the tour was probably a nightmare what with Lionel and Mariah's residences and other engagements. Since Mariah performs an hour into the tour, in the middle of Lionel's set, I hope they do a duet. They end each concert with a duet of Endless Love. I'm excited this will be my second time seeing Mariah in as many years. (Saturday 11 March 2017; 00:49)

Someday (73,477) by B from USA Twenty six (26) years ago today Someday became Mariah's third consecutive number-one single on the Billboard Hot 100. (Friday 10 March 2017; 03:26)

Re: If you could (73,392) (73,406) by B from USA Outside, If You Only Knew, and Cry. (Monday 6 March 2017; 19:06)

Re: "No one wants albums anymore." Wrong, girl (73,326) (73,339) by B from USA She did just that with MIAM and it did poorly which is why she feels this way. (Saturday 4 March 2017; 1:54)

Re: Me I Am Mariah sequencing (73,314) (73,317) by B from USA Agreed. Beginning the album with Cry. makes a bold statement and sets the tone. (Friday 3 March 2017; 14:38)

Re: I Know What You Want (73,300) (73,312) by B from USA You're forgetting U Make Me Wanna which along with IKWYW provided the perfect one two punch she needed at the time. Especially considering TEOM is an R&B album. (Thursday 2 March 2017; 20:40)

Re: Mariah and Busta (73,303) (73,311) by B from USA Share a link. (Thursday 2 March 2017; 20:36)

Re: Postponed (73,288) (73,298) by B from USA I received a similarly email that said I would receive an email with the new dates as soon as they are available. (Thursday 2 March 2017; 2:45)

Re: Mariah and Stella in a relationship? (73,290) (73,297) by B from USA Anthony Burrell was the creative director in charge of the Complex photo shoot. (Thursday 2 March 2017; 2:39)
