I saw that there was a decent amount of “Almost Home” talk on the last page.
That song is great.
Extremely catchy and great Mimi vocals.
I guess I can see where more live instruments would make it better, but for the most part I like the production..
My very good friend who isn’t much of a new Mimi ballad fan loved this and used to stick it on her playlists for awhile.
I thought it was going to be a big hit for her at the time…
However I always think Mimi’s making a chart comeback with most releases. Lol

I do prefer the version used at the end of the film (well, except for the lack of the climax):



This presumably fan-made version reduces some of the production:

Let's not forget this gem. What's wild is it debuted at #4 on the Top 40 Monitor chart (and #13 on the Hot 100 as it didn't have a full week of sales). I think it's still the only #1 hit from the Unplugged series.

Do you all think Mariah will ever do NPR Tiny Desk concert?

That would be amazing! How can we make this happen?!?!

And that's a stadium. Brazil loves it's legacy iconic world relevant diva!!

Mariah made this list, but surprisingly it's with Music Box (#112).

1993 was the year Mariah Carey took over the world, and her album Music Box is still one of the greatest pop records ever. “Hero” and “Without You” are her stadium-sized ballads, both inspirational, memorable and beautiful tracks full of supportive kindness—the type of slow-burn gems that the charts just eat up. “Hero” remains one of Carey’s most performed songs across her entire career. Using a sample of the hook from the Emotions’ “Blind Alley,” Carey put together a mid-century soul track glossed atop a hip-hop-tempo backbeat in “Dreamlover.” With a Hammond B3 organ from Walter Afanasieff that can transform any composition across rock ‘n’ roll’s vast spectrum of subsets, “Dreamlover” has a groove that is relentless, catchy and lovely. Though you might consider the production on Music Box to be relatively simple, it arrives with a masterful, uncluttered shine that metabolizes into melodic, breezy instrumentation. Like an acrobat floating in thin air, Carey transcends even the most familiar pop-chart boxes in the name of graceful, romantic and velvet confidence and attitude. —Matt Mitchell

"My All", a masterpiece, rightfully enters her top 10 (at #10) on Spotify. It's quietly one of her best-remembered #1 hits.

Also, her current top 5 really does showcase her versatility as an artist:

1. We Belong Together
2. Obsessed (currently her most-streamed song on a daily basis)
3. Fantasy
4. I Know What You Want
5. Always Be My Baby

Xtina liked this IG post 👀

Also, Patti’s comment on that same post made me teary-eyed 🥹

[jenglisbe]

Need a real (not a remix) collab between these two, please...

[sundaymorningguy]

I need artists that want to collaborate with her on a song that isn’t some last minute effort that isn’t going to do anything because the song is near the end of its commercial life.

[PGriffin]

I might have mentioned this before, BUT I'd love for her to release a jazz album. I think it would suit her voice.

[schnetzka]

I just want an album period from her lol. Who knew that was too much to ask for.

Wow, this is beautiful! My All has always been one of my favorite MC songs and to hear it this way is blowing my mind.

[Ling-Ling]

[jenglisbe]

So, a remix of "How Much" will be on a digital release, as well as the new "Rainbows End" remix with David Morales. You can see two of the Divas 2000 performances on the tracklist too. I hope "There For Me" is included as well since it hasn't been on streaming platforms.

Where is the preorder??

[Ivy Leegue™]

No physical for this??? (I mean, it's still her worst album, but c'mon!)

[jenglisbe]

It's that time lmao! Rainbow rankings:

Love
"Crybaby"
"Heartbreaker"
"Rainbow Interlude"
"Bliss"
"Petals" (needs better mixing though)

Like
"How Much"
"Can't Take That Away" (borderline love)
"Heartbreaker Remix"
"Against All Odds" (would love it with better mixing)
"Ex-Girlfriend" (her vocal is too mumbled though)
"Thank God I Found You" (underrated tbh)

Pass
"After Tonight" (another one with poor mixing)
"Did I Do That?" (love the idea, just not the execution)

By the way, the RIAA is promoting it so that better mean a new cert is incoming:
