What a breath of fresh air MCA is (113,864) by Syed from UK Usually I'd be replying to everyone individually but I don't want to clog up the feed and detract from what's most important, so I'll say my thankyou's to everyone here if that's ok. Firstly Lambi. Thank you so much for this, you've put a smile on my face. I was reading some of your recent previous posts earlier and was thinking how wonderfully you write, and in depth. I look forward to reading more of your posts in the future. Chicago Lamb, really appreciate your thoughtful message. Thank you. Lighty, my apologies, I got confused, thinking your message was for me. Thank you for clarifying and for the welcome. Lainsky, I was just remembering my love for Manila (I was briefly there in 2023) when your message popped up.

What a breath of fresh air MCA is (113,861) by Lambi from USA I loved the proper introduction and résumé, Syed. I appreciate your well thought-out first post. You are rather expressive, well-meaning and polite. This board is categorically on its own lane. All kinds of interesting topics. All kinds of characters. Welcome aboard and I hope you keep connecting with other lifelong lambs. (Monday 25 May 2026; 12:38)

What a breath of fresh air MCA is (113,853) by Syed from UK Thank you so much Bobby. Glad to be here. I've read that 20-30 songs were recorded for Glitter that didn't make the final cut, and I'm excited to see which of these (if any) will be part of the Glitter 25th anniversary edition. Fingers crossed at least some of them will. (Sunday 24 May 2026; 12:58) this is a reply to message 113,851

What a breath of fresh air MCA is (113,849) by Syed from UK Hey everyone. I never knew about this site until today. I can't begin to tell you how refreshing it is to see actual conversations about our queen as opposed to an endless barrage of GIF's and emoji's under every Mariah post on Facebook, Insta, etc. And well articulated conversations - at that. I might not completely agree with every comment I've read, I think 1 or 2 border on overly critical, but it's good to see a diverse mixture of opinions from Lambs, without overt censorship. I agree with some of the viewpoints here that Mariah increasingly does not seem like her usual self these days. It may be her condition, a side effect of medication, or past (and recent) trauma resurfacing, a combination of all the above, or... something unrelated. As Lambs, the best thing we can do is to support Mariah in any we we can. Because that's what she did for us through countless songs such as: Hero, Can't take that away, Make it happen, and so many others. We also need to overlook any behaviors we might not agree with because A) It's hard to trust anything you see online anymore (thanks AI) and media never shows us the true picture, only a distorted version that "sells" better. And B) We are not in her shoes, as much as we may think we know her, we only know her through the lens of the media, mostly. What she may be going through or battling internally and how they might manifest outwardly are things we need to be mindful of. Just be kind. As she has always been to us. What do I feel could help? Well... if I had a magic wand I'd whisk Mariah away to a place where she could spend some time being in touch with nature, walk down a street without being recognized, and feel genuine excitement reconnecting with the simple things in life. It may not solve everything but I could literally guarantee that she'd feel a positive difference. Call it intuition (I share a lot of uncanny coincidences with Mariah) or just my observation of Mariah over the years and knowing the person she is beneath the exterior. About me: - Lamb since 1993 - when I first heard Dreamlover in a clothes store. - I can confidently say I wouldn't be where I am today, without her music to help me through so many rough times. - Creator of the "40 Hidden Mariah songs challenge" which is a tribute to Mimi plus fun Easter Egg hunt for the Lambily, you can catch it here if you'd like to try solving it. - Recorded and released my own song in 2 languages based on a wish to "pay forward" what Mariah's music did for me, with a song that gives others hope. Took me just 20 years to make it happen. Have a great weekend everyone and again really nice to meet you all. (Saturday 23 May 2026; 19:26)
