MDJ Exclusive: New Christmas Song Titles Revealed Posted by Lynn on Friday, 03-Sep-2010, 5:52PM EDT | Comments (13) As we all know, Mariah has been hard at work on finishing up her brand-new Christmas album, reportedly titled Merry Christmas II You, which is scheduled to be released on Tuesday, November 2.
Last Friday night, August 27, Mariah had a big session with a full live band at Fox Studios in Los Angeles, California recording 5 holiday songs - 2 new and 3 traditional songs! Our reliable source tells us, "Mariah was very humble and thanked the band for their great work. At one point, she got up on the conductor's podium and playfully pretended to conduct the band."
Mariah Daily Journal is happy to exclusively reveal the titles of Mariah's two new and original Christmas songs, both co-written with Marc Shaiman of Broadway's Hairspray fame.
• "Christmas Time Is In The Air Again" • "One Child"
"Chistmas Time Is In The Air Again" has been described to us as "a really nice mid-tempo number." Mariah was happy to be working with Marc Shaiman and said: "He's so talented and can hear the chords in my head."
Please note that although songs may have been recorded, there is always the possibility that they may not make the final cut of the album. Stay tuned for more album news in the coming days! Source: MariahDailyJournal

I Love The Title "Merry Christmas 2 You" And Christmas Time Is In The Air Again Is Def Full Of Win.. I Hate That depending on who is saying the tempo of the song... it varies.. like Mariah said obsessed was uptempo, it was but it was also HEAVILY leaning towards mid-tempo. I think she should release an up-beat feel good old school/modern flare, jingle bells ringing, full choir at the end type of shit!!! LoL

Renowned harpist Gayle Levant posted this on her Facebook page a week ago:
What an incredible week! I recorded Alan Menken's beautiful score to the new Disney animated feature "Tangled." I had a fun session as the 22nd season of The Simpsons started yesterday with Alf Clausen at the helm. Then off to record on Mariah Carey's new X-mas album with Marc Shaiman & Brad Dechter. All this, plus ...The Emmys tomorrow night with the band on stage!!!!

So excited!
Btw, that was sweet of her to respond to that fan. I agree, she should tour outside the US more often, it would only benefit her.

Anyone else think Maybe this project has something to do with the Xmas broadway musical Mariah has mentioned a few times the past couple years?

I don't know why Rihanna's releasing another album so fast, instead she should have just went ahead and rereleased her latest one.

I was hoping for studio Mariah, but of course, i'll support all of her music endeavors throughout.
Who's still NOT convinced she's with child?

This won't sell 500k the first week. Besides, Christmas albums don't normally peak until after Thanksgiving anyway. I do think they're doing a smart thing marketing it via HSN. If this is marketed properly with a decent-performing first single, she could do OK with it.

She tried to use it during the e=mc^2 era and look what happened; media and people were far more interested in her private life than in music. True, label released wrong singles so that kind of destroyed the era. Maybe pregnancy could help, but she should be very careful.

well, it was different with e=mc2, since she completely forgot to talk about the album and went on and on about her sudden marriage. it wasn't only the media's fault, imo.
i think announcing a pregnancy and linking it to the album might help, if done correctly. people could start seeing her differently.

Mimi is the best for Christmas so can someone clarify some things 4 me? a)is Dream involved? Not that we've heard of/no. They are saying live instruments etc. Surely there'll be an R&B feel, or that's my feeling at least. Check Mariah Daily/earlier in this thread for details. A broadway producer, Randy Jackson was mentioned at one point, and JD was also mentioned. NO. You'd have to be pretty far outta the loop to miss that.
