I'm gonna predict an audience peak of about 10 million and no entry on the Hot 100 for You're Mine.
Unfortunately, I think Mimi missed another big opportunity be releasing a (decent, but not great) song that no one wants from her (meaning this is what everyone expected, and it doesn't stand out at all).

Yeah, the early reaction to this song (judging by initial performance on iTunes, YouTube, and radio) is making me think this is not going to do well at all. I never expected this to be a pop hit, but I was hoping it would at least be supported by Urban and Urban AC. I have a feeling this album is going to bomb, and then she'll leave IDJ. |

It does get frustrating as I wish this really could have been the follow up to Beautiful after Beautiful was done at radio. I don't think this song would have gotten nearly as much flack if it wasn't following it up almost a year later. I like the song, but I think people were expecting a lot more from Mariah after Beautiful and instead she plays it safe with a song she can do in her sleep. I am actually shocked because this is better than TAOLG, and I figured everyone would have played down their expectations after that dropped, but I guess not.
She has to get better at using everything to her advantage. I always feel like she is lagging lately. She has to make better videos, so that it creates a point of interest for her. She has to use social media better than she has been doing. Not make some random countdown every other week or month. I always feel that lately it is her videos that do her in because it was like the momentum was there and then it kind of fell after the video dropped. For me, she either has to deliver a song that people want to hear so a video doesn't really matter, or if she delivers a safe song like YM, then she has to make the video decent to generate a level of interest that the song isn't necessarily hitting.

Social media is not what she needs.

She needs social media to help. It isn't all she needs, but she doesn't use it as well as she should or could.
We will have to wait and see what the album has.

She and her team are completely out of touch lately anyway. JD's reason for premiering "The Art of Letting Go" on Facebook was that she had 16M followers, and with that many followers, a Facebook premiere would give her a hit. Wouldn't everyone with millions of followers be doing that then? LOL @ the difference in height here!  |

The remix video, while not much different, flowed better. I really enjoyed it.

Much better with Trey being more than a prop.

Sounds like Mariah herself isn't even that enthusiastic about this video.

Wait...what in the actual FUCK? The lip-synching was fixed and it was FLAWLESS. In fact, I don't think I have EVER seen her lip-synch so on point before. Also, the video makes more sense with Trey in it. It does still end rather abruptly, tho. Still, VAST improvement. I actually like the remix more than the original but the song REALLY grows on me. I think Touch My Body had to grow on me too, actually.

It seems like the general public is a bit underwhelmed with the song and expected a different sound from Mariah. Like you said, the song probably would've had a stronger start had it been released right after #B. Even though "You're Mine" is technically not a lead single, it does feel like one, and as lovely as the song is, I have to wonder if her team should've picked something more uptempo. |

The remix video is better. I like it a lot more, I hope it gets embraced by the public.

Love Mimi, but the fact that she chose barely there body Trey Songz as a love interest is laughable to me. I'm sure she did it because she thinks that he has some type of relevance, and that's the funniest part. She should have gotten a fione ass male model with enough body mesmerizing enough to hold our attention span. I'm not buying the sex Trey is selling, and I never will.

The first one is cute and sexy; the second one pushes the softcore boundary a little bit too hard.

People keep asking why there is a Trey remix and yes the remix sucks but anyone who has any idea about how urban music and radio works knows why the remix was released and why it sounds the way it sound.
Its a remix who cares listen to the original. I've heard the remix once.
