Mariah Carey - Next A/C single

[dawhite76]

Does anyone know whether another single will be "emancipated" by Mimi for A/C radio to follow-up "We Belong Together"? Both "Don't Forget About Us" and "Fly Like A Bird" have been released to other formats that could work (without the rapping) for A/C.

I'd say FLAB would be her best bet

Yeah, this is the best bet.

Still nothing "emancipated" to AC for Mariah. Time to let "We Belong Together" rest and give AC something new from Mariah!

i love that song, but i don't think it would be a good single choice

TEOM has many songs that could be AC (Circles, I Wish you knew, Mine again, Fly like a bird) but it seems that her record company is not wanting to be succesful on AC radios lol

i really don't see a reason for they not sending FLAB to AC stations >:(

A lot of AC stations are reluctant to play Mariah anyway because she's pretty much abandoned the format for hip hop. WBT was actually her first AC top 10 hit in 7 years (and despite hitting #1 everywhere else, it only got to like #6 correct me if I'm wrong). If she released something to AC, she'd be lucky if it went top 20.

And ironically, I think many of her singles from "Glitter", "Charmbracelet" and "Rainbow" were more AC-friendly than WBT or FLAB. It would be nice if AC picked another song of hers to play instead of having more overkill of WBT.

ac in Canada hasn't abandoned Mariah

Just saw Mariah interviewed on Leno--wish she would have been the musical guest as well. Cute dog.

Are they reluctant to play Mariah because she's most an urban artist tho? AC doesn't seem like the format to me that would just stop playing an artist because of image. It seems they go by a song by song basis as opposed to artist basis. WBT was pretty much Mariah's first major hit anywhere in 7 years anyway.
