Oh wow!! Didn't expect something like this for a dark child production.
She's definitely going for that old soul throw back vibe in full force.
Sounds very promising.

FWIW that isn't an "orchestra" we see in the video. It's a string section. An orchestra involves woodwinds, brass, and percussion, too, and I only see string players. It still sounds great, and I am excited for the song, but that isn't an orchestra we see or hear.

Ok... can we just talk about how goofy she is in "describing" the song in that video? She is so completely kooky.
"If there's just a person that I help get through a situation.... then that makes my life, and that makes me know I can get through pretty much anything."
It seriously makes me LOL.... I swear, if this is about her miscarriage...

Mariah can emulate those instruments with her voice so I can understand why those weren't included. :) |

Uhh... Yeah.. It has been confirmed for some time now, at least two days. Edit: It was announced yesterday, but for some reason it seems like it has been much longer than that?.... |

Unless she meant the first single that she's releasing on Facebook. Because if "#Beautiful" appears on the album, that was the first single.

Oh I see...
Well I'm thinking "#Beautiful" will be on the album... Reason being it's a source of promotion... "Make sure to pick up Mariah's new album featuring the smash hit "#Beautiful"" ... So yeah, I guess TAOLG would be the second single in that case. It's a good question.

She meant first single she's premiering on Facebook, not the first single of the album. Anyway, so... apparently there's a chance what was heard in the teaser is part of another new song off of the album, "Make It Look Good," and not "The Art of Letting Go". We'll see though...  |

Even if the album contains #b I don't think #b would be considered the first single given how much gap there is between album release. And if almost home is included too i wouldn't count that as the 1st single either. They would all be like bonus tracks

This album is going to be her best yet! She took her TIME! If everybody updates their status on 11/11 I think she could have a real chance with this song.
Hopefully on the live question and answer Facebook chat someone brings up that new Walter Afanasieff interview with him saying he'd love to work with her again. I would love to hear her answer to that.

People need to learn "the art of letting go" in regards to Walter. Maybe that's what the song is really about.
