This was supposed to be the lead single instead of "Vision of Love!" Can y'all imagine?

All four main US singles are still in this and in the top half of the record. Which one do you all think will be dismissed first?

LTT has grown on me so much in the past five or so years, it's crazy. Was never one of my big favorites growing up, and then one day I just got taken over by the holy spirit or some s**t. Lowkey it might be the actual best writing on the album, though obviously VOL and Vanishing are the best vocal performances.
If a single must go first I'd rather it be Someday, even though that's kind of like asking someone to kick one of their children out the house. I comfort myself with the knowledge that Mariah would not be the least bit hurt about it lol.

What kind of pain, emotion, drama, etc.? :'( And then that vocal! I just can't deal.

VOL and Vanishing just go all out in showing off hr vocal ability, whereas LTT plays it straight and hangs back a bit (which is perfectly fine - LTT would probably have felt overdone if she'd thrown in too many acrobatics).

I get why Columbia insisted on it making self-titled. But my God can you imagine if it had made album #2 like Mariah intended and she served us a 1-2 punch of LTT and motions as singles? Lawd we would not have been prepared

Me personally I live for her vocal tones on "I Don't Wanna Cry" such a sublime and heart tugging emotion and tone.
But in the last decade what's been drawing me is
Hey darlin' I know you think my love is slipping away But baby it's all in your mind Yes, don't worry Hold on tight and hear me when I say Baby it's all in your mind 🎶 🎤

It's perhaps what might've happened had Mariah signed with a label before meeting Tommy and getting into the Sony corporate machine. She's mentioned that early on there was interest in using some of the songs that ended up on the debut for a movie. Side note - I really like how Alone in Love has sort of a non-standard structure to it.

Songbird! I love the slight reggae vibe on this one. So smooth.

The next reveal is going to sting. At least one individual is finally going to lose their #1 pick. Everyone's #1s have landed in the top 5.

I think both of my bottom 2 are in the top 5 lol. But I'm still pretty confident about my top 2 being the top 2.

Ok hoes.
But the singing lessons for days upon days! That live performance will always slay.
I can't be too mad though. I knew #1 would be risky and at least its top 5. Should have been top 3.

Now the interesting part. The entire top 4 is composed of her US #1s. The order for what they appear is very.... you'll have to stay tuned.

I've been gone for a minute now I'm back with the jump off... WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU FOLKS? Specifically let me drag you hell spawns from #10 down to #11. See Jesus lied to all of you when he said you were his children. Spawns of Satan, seeds of Lucifer, drips from the Devil himself is what you are in my eyes. GAR-BAGE!
