About Alexis Carrington-Colby from United States: A realistic lamb-that makes me a unicorn as well

Wait, seriously? Nothing for Daydream30? (111,890) by Alexis Carrington-Colby from United States Tokyo wasn't lipsynched. It was dubbed. Don't lie. (Wednesday 15 October 2025; 17:14) this is a reply to message 111,886

Wait, seriously? Nothing for Daydream30? (111,886) by Bill from the UK The European leg of that tour, especially London of which I attended, was sensational and needs to be released on audio or DVD, whatever they have. There were tripods set up at London to film sections and take photographs, and Rotterdam was filmed professionally but never released. Japan was literally the worst of all the dates as 1) she lipped a lot of it 2) the upper register was weak and airy and 3) her outfits for Europe were way better. (Wednesday 15 October 2025; 15:12)

Wait, seriously? Nothing for Daydream30? (111,885) by Alexis Carrington-Colby from United States What's left from the Daydream era? 1. If indeed the OSD video was the real making of the song, release the entirety of the footage. Same for the remix of ABMB. 2. We've never seen the full Steven Meisel photoshoot for the artwork. Release it. 3. It's clear that some of the European dates of the Daydream tour were filmed. Release it - even if it's just select performances 4. Where is the acapella release that the other albums got? I want to hear a "sweet acapella" of I Am Free, when I Saw You, and especially the album version of Fantasy. 5. I would like to hear a merger and sequence of Daydream and Ugly Daughter. I want to hear the songs she worked on in the day and then the secret grunge she did at night. A cute title like "Twilight Daydreams" would be cute. 6. There is all kinds of merch that could be released. (Wednesday 15 October 2025; 15:09) this is a reply to message 111,882

Wait, seriously? Nothing for Daydream30? (111,882) by T from USA Why was the second disc a Daydream live tour? It could've been literally anything, it could've been the live Charmbracelet tour. But it was 2020 which was the 25th anniversary of Daydream. Maybe if she held off on including that disc then you would get it this year on the 30th. Maybe there's nothing worthwhile left from Daydream. (Wednesday 15 October 2025; 14:12)

Is HFIA her ILTY? (111,884) by Alexis Carrington-Colby from United States If you think that, then you haven’t been paying attention. (Wednesday 15 October 2025; 15:02) this is a reply to message 111,880

Is HFIA her ILTY? (111,880) by Will from England Dropped three singles that had a variety of success on different charts, 1 quality video, did a healthy and packed promo run of radio and a variety podcast interviews both in US and UK, some TV appearances of varying quality, 1 stunning magazine cover, a few awards picked up along the way (1 of which for the current project), performed at some high profile festivals and concerts at various locations across the globe (Sandringham had the huge QR code for everyone to scan to save the album on Spotify) on the lead up which resulted in mostly positive press, more TV appearances, in-person album signings for the fans, new merch in support of the album, a few variants of the album available for purchase, a solid roll out of the album (right from the teaser to the album title and art reveal) on social media, live snippets recorded and posted on social media in the week leading up to launch. All of which resulted in positive album reviews and a decent placements on various BB album charts. I think she did enough. (Wednesday 15 October 2025; 09:56)

Here For It All (111,876) by Alexis Carrington-Colby from United States Close My Eyes 2020 was not good. Somewhat Loved was brilliant and a great vocal. I wish it had been promoted. (Wednesday 15 October 2025; 01:44) this is a reply to message 111,874

Here For It All (111,874) by Edward from USA I hope she learned her lesson. I've said it a million times, seven years is way too long for a current artist, and for a legacy artist, it's basically career suicide. The thing is, since "Caution", the only decent thing she's put out is the acoustic version of "Close My Eyes". Everything else, including "Falling in Love at Christmas", has been pretty meh. "Save the Day" was another letdown. "HFIA" proved that when she really puts in the effort, she can still deliver something amazing. (Wednesday 15 October 2025; 01:19)

Is HFIA her ILTY? (111,869) by Alexis Carrington-Colby from United States Is Here for It All to Mariah what I Look to You was to Whitney? It was agreed upon by her fans that Whitney didn't need to tour with that album, but what else could've been done to promote it? Similarly, I don't think Mariah is in the space nor has the interest to tour, so what should her PR strategy for the album be? (Tuesday 14 October 2025; 21:19)

Madonna's Bed Time Stories new song (111,868) by Alexis Carrington-Colby from United States Bedtime stories is Madonna's best album and it has been neglected by her they way Mariah neglects Daydream and Emotions. (Tuesday 14 October 2025; 21:16) this is a reply to message 111,819

Madonna's Bed Time Stories new song (111,819) by Bobby A from United States November 28th is the day the Untold Chapter EP with demos, alternate mixes and remixes will be released along with the original album on a 2CD set and other vinyl variants. Why do I think Madonna is following how MC is releasing her anniversary albums? This is the Madonna album to have in your vinyl collection. (Sunday 12 October 2025; 12:35)

Some random idea (111,867) by Alexis Carrington-Colby from United States Updated greatest hits as in she re-sang the songs? (Tuesday 14 October 2025; 21:13) this is a reply to message 111,840

Some random idea (111,840) by T from USA Mariah would never sing a current popular singer's song. She also would never work with JLo. But you got me thinking what she could've done for HFIA. She could've pulled a Michael Jackson and done a double disc called "Herstory" and the first disc could've been an updated greatest hits and the second disc could've been the new album. Call the whole thing "Herstory: Here For It all" and have the album cover a statue of her, like a play on MJ's picture. Then people who would've bought it for the greatest hits would hear all the new songs. At least it would've sold double the amount in the first week and more in the long term. (Monday 13 October 2025; 15:00)

Wait, seriously? Nothing for Daydream30? (111,866) by Alexis Carrington-Colby from United States As the biggest Daydream-era stan, it is shameful that Mariah gave a half-hearted "happy anniversary Daydream" repost and that's it for the landmark album. Music Box, Merry Christmas, Butterfly, Ones, Rainbow, and Mimi all got deluxe/special releases. Hell, even MIAM, Memoirs, and E=MC2 got Amazon special releases. It's obvious she hates the Emotions album so I'm never surprised when it is paid dust. But Madame Daydream? She is quick to remind people of the hits from the album, she is quick to praise UTS, she is quick to accept the praise for the groundbreaking Fantasy remix, she is quick to tell you she directed 2 videos this era. I've long suspected, and she said it once, that Daydream is bittersweet for her but to ignore it like this is disrespectful to the fans. (Tuesday 14 October 2025; 21:12)

Looking back on Glitter (111,347) by Alexis Carrington-Colby from United States That had always been her Achilles heel: predictably and being stuck in ruts. She doesn't take chances (Sunday 21 September 2025; 00:31) this is a reply to message 111,335

Looking back on Glitter (111,335) by T from USA After Rainbow, and the D, F, H, H, first singles maybe 2001 was the moment she should've changed it up and not been so predictable with a lesser version of a first up-tempo single (sure if the original Firecracker was released that would've been better). But maybe the first single should've been her first single ballad since Vision of Love. New label, a reset. In hindsight I would've picked Lead The Way. It's Mariah's favorite song on the album and it's arguably the best song on the album. It would've won over the general public too, and that would've had a positive effect on the movie. Second single could've been, Loverboy. Then If We, followed by Last Night A DJ Saved My Life. Glitter was the original wrong single choices album. (Saturday 20 September 2025; 14:49)

So... thoughts on the VMA performance? (111,003) by Alexis Carrington-Colby from United States How do we feel? (Monday 8 September 2025; 04:09)

Anderson .Paak (107,906) by Alexis Carrington-Colby from United States Why do you hope they're not dating? Also, is [Music Box] your fav Mariah album? (Thursday 2 January 2025; 19:04) this is a reply to message 107,904

Anderson .Paak (107,904) by MusicfanJ from Germany I hope they are not dating. I'm ecxited to hear music from him and Mariah. I can imagine that they are very creative while working on music because of a good connection. But I just don't see him as a new partner for her. Just my thoughts. (Thursday 2 January 2025; 14:07)

AIWFCIY (107,832) by Alexis Carrington-Colby from United States Most weeks at #1 on streaming? Where did you see that? (Monday 23 December 2024; 18:47) this is a reply to message 107,830

AIWFCIY (107,830) by Edward from USA If she secures two more weeks at number one in December 2025, she would break Old Town Road's record as the song with the most weeks at the top. This week, she has already surpassed Old Town Road's record, becoming the song with the most weeks at number one on streaming. (Monday 23 December 2024; 16:19)

Seriously? (107,738) by Alexis Carrington-Colby from United States How droll. (Tuesday 3 December 2024; 04:00) this is a reply to message 107,735

Seriously? (107,735) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter The key word/phrase is "majority of her success". So not all of her success is contained in the 90s. The list isn't for "who peaked in the 21st century". Mariah wasn't irrelevant in the 21st century. She had a second song of the decade, she had multiple #1s, she broke multiple records including becoming the the artist with the most #1's, she is probably the only artist who ended and started multiple years at the #1 position, 7 top 5 albums , 11 top 20 singles, multiple accolades and other stuff I can remember at this point of time. Also AIW single handedly is responsible for how now more and more artists make Christmas albums early on into their careers. And what do you mean she's not a pop star? Of course she is. Pop isn't only bubblegum pop, it's any artist/music that has been popular at a certain point of time, Billboard named her the greatest popstar of 1991. Anyways all of this to say I'm not saying she should top the list, could have been one of the honourable mentions. (Monday 2 December 2024; 22:10)

Seriously? (107,737) by Alexis Carrington-Colby from United States Empower Your Highlighter didn't deserve that from you. You owe her an apology. (Tuesday 3 December 2024; 03:58) this is a reply to message 107,734

Seriously? (107,734) by Libra Lamb from USA Are people actually out here rage-bating on a Mariah Carey message board? It’s not working. (Monday 2 December 2024; 18:33)

Seriously? (107,733) by Alexis Carrington-Colby from United States Are lambs really upset or surprised that Mariah didn't make the Billboard 21st century pop stars list? She isn't a pop star and the majority of her success was in the 20th century. (Monday 2 December 2024; 09:08)

New music? (107,711) by Alexis Carrington-Colby from United States What unreleased songs from that session are you referring to? (Monday 25 November 2024; 20:56) this is a reply to message 107,700

New music? (107,700) by Terna from Nigeria Yeah I caught that part. Mariah basically recorded that Emancipation album all year through 2004, there are so many song titles from then that did not make the final cut. They could see the light of day next year for it's 20th anniversary. (Where did time go? I just bought this album. ) Lol. (Saturday 23 November 2024; 01:20)

Hot 100 (107,696) by Alexis Carrington-Colby from United States Charts don't matter. Mariah has nothing to prove. (Friday 22 November 2024; 12:39) this is a reply to message 107,692

Hot 100 (107,692) by David from USA Wait, how did Wham's "Last Christmas" re-enter this week's chart at #38 while Mariah's not on it yet? (Brenda Lee either.) What am I missing here? (Friday 22 November 2024; 01:05)

New album title? (107,695) by Alexis Carrington-Colby from United States She never [had] a first name only album like the other girls. That would be interesting. I've always like saying "M.Carey" and it looks good - that's how it used to be in her writing credits. (Friday 22 November 2024; 04:53) this is a reply to message 107,691

New album title? (107,691) by Bobby A from United States It could simply be called MC. We knew her first as Mariah Carey, then Mimi, and has always been respectfully called by Jermaine Dupri MC. Her emancipation would be complete with her next album called MC. (Thursday 21 November 2024; 22:31)

New music? (107,681) by Alexis Carrington-Colby from United States What's the source of that rumor? (Thursday 21 November 2024; 12:19) this is a reply to message 107,679

New music? (107,679) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter No to Chris Brown for me. Also rumor has it Mariah refused to sit with him at an event after he assaulted Rihanna. We don't need her associating with another known abuser. If Mariah really wants to go out of her comfort zone I would love to see a duet with Post Malone or Zayn or Harry Styles. Hell why not a sexy song with Sabrina Carpenter. Nonsense is a very Ariana-Mariah type song. Mariah, Ariana and Sabrina on a song would be lethal. (Thursday 21 November 2024; 04:27)

New music? (107,680) by Alexis Carrington-Colby from United States Welp, happy holiday. (Thursday 21 November 2024; 12:18) this is a reply to message 107,678

New music? (107,678) by Stacey from USA Huh? *scratching my head* Either I am ready so ready for the Thanksgiving holiday or I am a simple minded special education, but that post made zero sense. (Thursday 21 November 2024; 03:49)

New music? (107,677) by Alexis Carrington-Colby from United States Personally, no. Sonically, eh. Chart-wise it would get her airplay. I think even more than a quick #1, she needs a solid "radio" hit that has staying power even if it doesn't hit #1. (Thursday 21 November 2024; 03:44) this is a reply to message 107,676

New music? (107,676) by Bobby A from United States A Breezy duet for Valentine's day would set the internet on fire. Their voices would sound so good together on a hot passionate R&B love song. Their duet would be looked at as being creative and stepping out of their comfort zone. I just feel it would be a number #1 song on multiple charts. Who wouldn't love a Breezy and Mimi duet? Mimi needs a song to get the public's attention in 2025. Babyface, Daryl Simmons, Antonio Dixon, Muni Long, and Tank should co-write the song with Breezy and Mimi. (Wednesday 20 November 2024; 22:15)

New music? (107,673) by Alexis Carrington-Colby from United States Why does she need to be creative when the lambs eat up the mediocrity she puts out? Look at the recycled setlist and the basic merch on Amazon. (Wednesday 20 November 2024; 13:02) this is a reply to message 107,666

New music? (107,666) by Brandon from USA In order to keep the momentum going every year for AIWFCIY, MC and her team will need to start thinking outside the box year after year. They need to employ new ways of marketing instead of MC just doing a string of shows each year (and MC recycling the same show every year, let's keep it real people). Everyone is jumping on the Christmas bandwagon right now and it won't be long before another Christmas song gains steam and AIWFCIY loses steam. Obviously no one stays on top forever, but I would like to see MC's team get creative. On another note, I wonder how MC and Celine would sound on a Christmas song together? Thoughts? (Monday 18 November 2024; 17:30)

New music? (107,672) by Alexis Carrington-Colby from United States Those 2 obsessed fans aren't obsessed with the song. I posit that they are obsessed with the para-social "power" it brings. It allows those lambs a few weeks of ???? on the competition using chart data ("sleigh queen", "your fav could never", "queen of charts", etc.). Then they are spend the rest of the year saying charts don't matter and Mariah has nothing left to prove. (Wednesday 20 November 2024; 13:01) this is a reply to message 107,665

New music? (107,665) by Libra Lamb from USA This song is a perennial hit. It will always come back every year and it will probably always reach the number 1 spot at some point or another. I don't blame MC for promoting her Christmas music every year being that it's a cash cow. For every person tired of AIWFCIY there's at least two new obsessed fans. I wouldn't ever worry about this classic. (Monday 18 November 2024; 16:34)

Keep politics out (107,640) by Alexis Carrington-Colby from United States We don't come here to discuss anyone's political opinions. Go elsewhere for that. This isn't the place. (Wednesday 13 November 2024; 12:01)

Christmas tour 2024 (107,620) by Alexis Carrington-Colby from United States I'm upset at myself for buying expensive front row tickets. I fear I will just sit there scowling at her for wasting my time. To top it off, all the merch looks cheap and is overpriced. (Sunday 10 November 2024; 16:19) this is a reply to message 107,613

Christmas tour 2024 (107,613) by Brandon from USA Any thoughts on Mimi's new Christmas tour? I'm curious to hear what [you] guys honestly think after watching the clips or actually going to the show. (Saturday 9 November 2024; 17:55)
