Despite "One Sweet Day" being her longest running number one, "Fantasy" and "Always Be My Baby" are clearly the most well-loved Daydream singles twenty-five years later, and probably the two Mariah songs I hear out and about the most, until the holiday season rolls around of course. So which of these two jams is your favorite?

Always Be My Baby remains one of my favourites from her. What a beautiful fun track! I like Fantasy a bit but it's certainly not in my top tier for Mariah.

"Always Be My Baby" is in my MC top 5. Stellar, perfect, flawless etc.
"Fantasy" is good and I love it for the open, in-your-face vocal but I'd place it relatively low if I were to rank her lead singles.

Well, to be perfectly honestly with you, neither songs are particularly my top MC songs and I rarely play them these days. I find them both pretty overrated and I far prefer her other hits over them. If I had to choose, I'd pick Fantasy.

Wow, tough.
I think "Fantasy" is the 'better' song in that it has more complex production, a fresh sound, and perhaps more interesting lyrics (I particularly love the line "I get kind of hectic inside").
Both songs have terrific melodies, but "Always Be My Baby" has one of the best melodies of all-time. Out of that I probably listen to it a bit more.

I've been burnt out on Fantasy now for decades. I can enjoy it in the right setting but mostly I'd rather skip it (though I can enjoy the remix more often than the original). Always Be My Baby never gets old.

Umm if "Fantasy" gets its remix why is the So So Def remix of ABMB not here? But yeah, "Fantasy" ORIGINAL for sure.

Both have perfect hooks but Fantasy has next level verses + the remix

I have a bigger nostalgic connection to Always Be My Baby. But I do love both and I LOVE this era
