Battle of the Bridge | Mariah Carey (Part I)

[Relaxing Cup]

Easily my two favorite "ballad" bridges from Mariah and in my opinion the most emotive. There is already a Part II lined up for BOTB Mariah, but for now between the bridge on "Love Takes Time" and "Forever", which do you like more? press play to listen to the bridge

1. "Love Takes Time"

You might say that it's over
You might say that you don't care
You might say you don't miss me
You don't need me
But I know that you do
And I feel that you do
Inside





2. "Forever"

If you should ever need me
Unfailingly I will return to your arms
And unburden your heart
And if you should remember
That we belong together
Never be ashamed
Call my name
Tell me I'm the one you treasure

Both are iconic and Mariah's bridges are some of her best compositions, but I voted for my GOAT.

"Forever"

[Relaxing Cup]

After a lot of thought, I also gave it to "Forever", if only for the use of unfailingly.

Love Takes Time has always been a childhood favorite of mine.
