Imagine having this banger on your album and releasing "Bye Bye" instead nnn I was expecting they'd release "Migrate" after "Touch My Body" because she performed it on SNL. It would have been amazing. Having said that, I actually like "Bye Bye." However, they should've released it to close the era not as the follow-up to a No.1 hit. I remember people were comparing it to "One Sweet Day" and how "Bye Bye" was a sure hit waiting to happen. Famous last words! |

I think she will probably release the new album after the holidays. The fact that we don’t have details this close to the holiday season suggests a 2025 release. I want new music, and I will take it whenever she wants to deliver, but it would be nice to have an era that doesn’t blend into the holiday season kind of how Caution panned out. Which may be smart given the number of ladies who released fantastic work this year. If she is trying for some award show recognition, it may do to avoid this year.

Queen of the holidays! Let freedom ring! Mariah's team really should work "Fourth of July" for the holiday, getting it on playlists and such. I don't understand why her team isn't on this type of thing. (Lana del Rey's "National Anthem" entered the Spotify top 200 for July 4, and the song is a relationship song lmao.) Friends. Shhh Mariah will be on tiny desk soon xoxoxo I'd love to see it, but you know Mariah is going to have full control over it if she does it lol. At least no performer really moves for those performances! I'm sure Mariah will do the predictable songs (We Belong Together, Always Be My Baby, Touch My Body), but maybe throw in one surprise. |

The thing about Tiny Desk is that it's always completely live so it'll be interesting to see the condition of her voice.

She does better in intimate settings with live or minimal production..I think this will be good for her cause it's expected that she will not be putting on a big show and singing songs on their original form . Nothing harder than singing Mariah songs. SWV just did one and they barely sang. They had their background almost seven men and women behind them doing the heavy lifting lol and I love SWV and regardless nice hearing the songs |

Also, I can't believe the one day I forget to do Connections, it's a Mariah day!
I didn't personally notice her shading "Someday," though we know she has in the past.

Girl, stop shading Someday. It went #1. It isn’t Prisoner.

It breaks my heart that she doesn’t like Someday. It’s my fav after WBT. It’s so sassy and so Mariah. I’ve never understood why she couldn’t redo it to the way she wanted it. Enough time has passed she could. Then there’s the New jack swing remixes that seem to be closer to the original that she intended. She’d scalp me if she ever released the ‘Ain’t To Proud To Beg’ remix from her GH vegas run.

I listen to the MTV Unplugged version of "Someday" since that's one she seems happy with. If it were possible to get the isolated vocals from her first 2-4 albums, I would love to hear her reproduce them to her liking.

I want quality over quantity. I don't care how many tracks are released they just better be top quality. Agreed! Is Anderson Paak the only “confirmed” writer producer on it so far? |

Brazil and Philippines one loves Through The Journey and the other loves I don't Know What Love is.
Bless their hearts.
I actually like both songs I just hate the video for IDKWLI

 @ I Don't Know What Love Is. One of quite a few reasons Coco is iconic to me. I will probably be calling it that from now on. But, yeah, oddly enough, I don't hate it as much as I should. Then again, I think I am so much of a lamb that I don't HATE ANY Mariah song. There are some that I never need to hear again, but if I did, I wouldn't turn them off and I probably know all the words. There are some from debut - Daydream. Hell, tbh, every album has at least ONE. While I am here, my bottom song from each album: Mariah Carey: Sent From Up Above Emotions: To Be Around You Music Box: Now That I Know Merry Christmas: Jesus Born On This Day Daydream: When I Saw You Butterfly: Whenever You Call Rainbow: How Much Glitter: All My Life Charmbracelet: Irresistible The Emancipation of Mimi: To The Floor E=MC2: Migraine Memoirs: I Want To Know What Love Is Merry Christmas II You: Auld Lang Syne Me...I Am Mariah: Money Caution: Stay Long Love You |

I can't believe I've never posted in here before! I've been a fan of Mariah's since 2007 but admittedly my interest in following her career has waxed and waned over the years. I have Rainbow 25 to thank for sucking me back in! Anyway, continuing the trend of least favorites from each album (also, my album ranking) -
No skips, something had to be last:
Butterfly - The Beautiful Ones
Emancipation - Joy Ride
Daydream - When I Saw You
Debut - There's Got to Be a Way
Rainbow - Vulnerability (Interlude) / Bliss
Glitter - Twister that girl Mariah it's that fire
Mid-tier:
Caution - title track
Emotions - You're So Cold
Einstein - Thanx 4 Nothin'
Hmm, for varying reasons:
Music Box - Just to Skip You Once Again
Charmbracelet - Yours
Memoirs - Up Out My Face (The Reprise) / Angels Cry
Meme - Heavenly (No Ways Tired / Can't Give Up Now)
I don't listen to the Xmas albums much; I worked retail for four years and am still traumatized <3
