Not exactly an interesting development since we know it's coming Monday, but it's in the iTunes database now (search "mariah carey miguel beautiful" on the iTunes Link Maker).

I know this is a bit nitpicky, but could someone update the thread title? it isn't "Mariah featuring Miguel", it's "Mariah Miguel". ;) kidding aside, after "Triumphant", my expectations are set very, very low...and since I have a hard time imagining something worse than "Triumphant", I don't think I'll be too disappointed by this. if "Triumphant" really was an indication of the kind of music she wants to be making, more power to her, she's certainly earned the right to make whatever album she feels like making at this point in her career...it's just not my cup of tea.

From all the descriptions of the song, this sounds much more mature and R&B oriented than "Triumphant". The people begging for "pop Mariah" won't be happy, but the people who are fine with R&B Mariah as long as it's not childish and rap-oriented are likely to be more satisfied with this than "Triumphant".

CLEAR CHANNEL DEAL FOR POP! Top of the hour every hour. Perfect. I am so here for this. Can't wait until Monday. I'm just a little worried about the week following and its reception by radio, but I'm confident they're making the right choice in choosing this song.

I just heard it today, I'm actually surprised at the sound. I wasn't really expecting it to sound like this.

Mariah Carey Exclusives: New Video Will Debut on “Idol,” New Album Coming, New Manager HiredMariah Carey runs to the rescue of “American Idol.” With ratings precariously low, and “The Voice” playing directly against it next Wednesday, “American Idol” needed something to give it a boost. That brings Mariah to the story. She’ll debut the new video for her new song, “Beautiful,” on the show on May 8th. “Beautiful” is a mid tempo pop song with an usually catchy and sophisticated melody. It’s co-written, sung and produced by newish sensation Miguel. I’ve heard “Beautiful” and it’s a hit. A real hit that fans will sing along with.The rather short–about 3 minutes, 3 seconds– single opens with Miguel singing to an acoustic guitar. After the first verse and chorus, Mariah makes a spine-tingling entrance. I am told her album, still unnamed, is just in this vein– lots of great singing, very little singing, no hip hop, all songs with a capital S. My only peeve about “Beautiful” is that it’s too short– I think the album version should be longer. And the album– it’s coming sometime between June 25th and July 7th, my sources say. First Island DefJam has to launch Kanye West’s new album, recorded in Paris, on June 18th. That’s confirmed also, but no title has been given. It should be called “Keeping Up with the Kardashians– Literally.” And here’s another scoop: while we were sleeping, Mariah changed managers. She and Randy Jackson decided their schedules were too hectic. So Carey has signed with Red Light, the same place Steven Tyler just joined. Red Light is the brainchild of Corin Capshaw, the mastermind behind Dave Matthews. It’s a hot hot agency. www.showbiz411.com/2013/05/03/mariah-carey-exclusives-new-video-will-debut-on-idol-new-album-coming-new-manager-hiredMariah is coming for blood!

I just heard it today, I'm actually surprised at the sound. I wasn't really expecting it to sound like this. Please elaborate. Is this a good or bad thing? It's a little weird, I only heard it once and I can't really remember much of it but the harmonies are better than I expected. It has a bit of an old R&B sound to it. It's definitely not a Pop song, and it's also not really a "slow" jam either. I wouldn't call it a #1, and I can't really remember much of it. It seemed to have a lot of lyrics. Mariah's voice sounded a bit different too, in a good way. Not a lot of whispering. If I had to compare it to any of her (most) recent work, I'd probably compare it to her sound on Charmbracelet mixed with MOAIA. It's a good song, definitely better than It's Like That and Touch My Body as far as first singles go, it's also age appropriate which I thought was exactly what she needed. From what I understand, 102.7 KIIS FM actually tested the song today in the afternoon during their 60 min nonstop KIIS mix. Not sure if it happened, but from what I heard, they were just going to throw it out there once to see what the reaction was. Obviously no announcement was going to be made, but...yeah. Overall, I'd give it a 7/10.

There actually seems to be genuine hype for this outside the core fanbase. Mariah better not screw this up with another lackluster song.

They are f**king going all out for this song. Wow. That seems to be the case! Exclusive: Mariah Carey Negotiating for Big “American Idol” Finale PerformanceIt’s not completely a done deal, but I’m told this will happen: Mariah Carey will perform on the “American Idol” finale on May 16th. She will sing her brand new single called “#Beautiful.” (That’s hashtag, if you were wondering.) I told you last night exclusively that Mariah’s video of “#Beautiful” will debut on this Wednesday’s “Idol.”
One thing still not certain: who will sing it with her? Miguel, who performs the duet on the single, is on tour and may not be able to do it. He’s got to be in Liverpool, England two days later to open for Alicia Keys. Sources say something very cool is in the works. (Nick Cannon, maybe? Nicki Minaj? Stay tuned.)
It does seem like with falling ratings and re-considerations, Mariah and “Idol” are making up instead of breaking up. Isn’t that swell? I do hope when she performs”#Beautiful” on “Idol,” Mariah sings a slightly longer version than the one being released this Monday to radio stations at 7am. It’s a great song and deserves a big finale. Carey will jump from the “Idol” finale to a special appearance on “Good Morning America” just eight days later on May 24th.
Did I tell you yesterday that “#Beautiful” reminds me of “Dreamlover,” Mariah’s 1993 smash? It’s got that feel. It’s also got a cool retro vibe. There’s some static in the background and it sounds like a record — a 45 rpm record– is playing. PS The two hour “Idol” finale will feature lots of the show’s past participants. Also, I’ve heard Carly Rae Jepsen will call them, maybe.www.showbiz411.com/2013/05/04/exclusive-mariah-carey-negotiating-for-big-american-idol-finale-performance

Miguel hologram! I never take these comparisons seriously. "Cruise Control" was supposedly the new "Fantasy" and "Angels Cry" was supposedly the new "Vision of Love". I don't even know where they come up with some of these comparisons.

Lol @ this person not remembering any details except the ones that have already been reported... Lol child, like I would make up a rumor about a Mariah Carey song. When have you ever seen me post on the Mariah Carey thread or in here? You don't have to believe me if you don't want to, I got no reason to lie. I didn't know anything had been "reported" already.
