Mary's is fresher and (par for the course with her) is very emotive, Mariah's is very commercialized.

This will be an interesting poll.... it's always one or the other with these two artists......
Mary may have the edge on being the "soul" singer..... But, I still know that WBT is the better song....even with it being in the "love jam" category...I think Mariah hit the subject matter a little better......

They're like on opposite ends of the spectrum. Mimi's song is light and sweet with this poppy soul thing going on in it, and Mary's is darker, a lot more emotional and...I can't think of the word for it...um...URBAN. I might be being biased, and I don't care, but I'm going with MJB on this one. I love both of the songs loads tho and I'm glad the divas are back!

Mary's is better but if it was "We Belong Together" versus "Be Without You," I'd give it to "We Belong Together" hands down.

I love the Mary song it's my humble opinion that she could never do anything as good as Mariah can. So my vote goes for DFAU. And damn that video is so sexy I love her in the soccer field

I've heard Mary's 40 songs accoring to iTunes... and that's without WMP and my cd player so hell yeah! Mary's song is a jam, I never liked a song so much....

I hate voting for Mariah, but Mary's song is so clearly a knock-off that I have to give it to her.

I really like Mary's song, but I really can't stand her voice, especially against Mariah's.

Mary J. Blige's, unless "Don't Forget..." has the remixes...

Why did I vote for this before even hearing Mary's song "Be Without You" is very catchy.

My vote goes to Mary because at this point Mariah is on her 4th single and it's getting a little tired.
But yes, if it was WBT vs. Mary, WBT would get it because that is more 'original', Mary's seems like a slight knock-off

"Be Without You" sounds like a WBT rip off, but I love it none the less. I'm going for DFAU on this one though.
