The somewhat controversial "Someday" was an important song for her as it proved to her audience that she was more then an adult contemporary styled balladeer. This song is the butt of many jokes today by Mariah itself as her distaste for it comes from how the production turned out on the album version. She wasn't given the creative freedom production wise on her debut and the result was a more polished track that featured a guitar solo. The song was remixed by Shep Pettibone through "7 ' jackswing mix" which began the main version featured in the video in addition to an extended 12 inch mix, 7 inch straight mix and a house extended remix. This uptempo was the first glimpse to the public of how well she can carry an uptempo which she followed up in previous releases with "Emotions", "Dreamlover" and "Fantasy". The song was also notorious for not being performed for over 20 years until Mariah had it as part of her Number 1 to Infinity residency.

AYYYYY!
I'm either about to end this with two perfect ranks or get a really pleasant surprise. Either way, I'm pleased.

As long as VOL is #1, I don't care about the rest of these rankings, tbh.

Wow I'm kinda shocked this didn't make the top 2. I think 1 vs 10 now and I don't care what wins because they're both great.

In one corner we have one of the most iconic debut singles ever that inspired numerous singers to pursue their dreams.
In the other corner we have arguably the underdog that has one of the best bridges out of any pop song in the past thirty years.
Which one do you all think will be the victor?

No suspense imo. Number one is arguably the best female singer debut single of all time. And an example of what is considered a classic song.

An unsurprising, yet thoroughly satisfactory conclusion for an epic album.
Thank you for hosting this @drag27!

I would like to thank everyone for participating in this countdown. It was great to revisit one of the most legendary debut albums. Also, I'd like to thank ry4n as I was having some computer troubles, he helped with getting the data and ordering done.

What was the most interesting fact regarding this countdown was that the four singles ranked exactly in terms of their release order.

YESSSS Vision of Love! Thanks @drag27!! I actually went back to revisit this and liked some of the other songs more than I thought I would. SFUA is boring though and You Need Me is better than I remember it being.
