u must be kidding right? we never would have dreamt that a full korean song will receive airplay in US and top the US digital singles chart...Hikaru Utada failed... Coco Lee failed...Jane Zhang didn't even manage to release a single...
It is now on Itunes Japan... #33

Triumphnt has given us a preview of what is going to happen when she releases her new album... she's determined to go on the urban/R&b track but the love is not reciprocated..
she may well decide to call it a day as a studio artist...sign on American Idol for a few yrs etc

But as a singer/songwriter Mariah also gets play on other formats (hip hop/Rnb, UAC, etc) that Adele will never get played on it is a null point including her in that group. I believe his point is simply that Mariah is generally not perceived as a singer-songwriter, which is unfortunately true. It annoys me but outside of her fanbase and people on music boards (where her fans will be quick to correct someone and point it out) a lot of people either don't know she is a writer or don't really think much of her contribution to her songs. Her labels never really played up that aspect when marketing her. As far as Adele, she'll have a career for as long as she wants one and I'm sure she'll always be an awards darling. But I would expect a career most similar to Norah's (huge and unexpected album success followed by albums that sell much less, but still do respectably well for whatever the sales climate is at the time). Norah has released four solo studio albums and they are, in order: 10x platinum, 5x platinum, 2x platinum, and 1x platinum. Norah typically receives minimal promotion. For the type of artist she is and the fact that she doesn't necessarily care for being the hugest star in the world, this is not a problem. Other than probably continuing to have greater singles success than Norah ever had, I see Adele's commercial trajectory being much similar to that. The era of the ever-dominating superstar (Michael, Janet, Madonna, Whitney, Mariah, Celine) is over as far as I can tell. I just don't see the industry every producing someone who consistently dominates in album sales and/or singles over the course of a decade or more like that ever again. For Mimi, i believe some credibility as a songwriter is taken away from the lawsuits filed against her over the years And i agree and don't agree with you.. the era Superstar era is gone but i can see the business model changing to what the Koreans are doing now... if that happens we may see millions selling singles every week

AKB48 has really crazy fans whom can buy 15,000 singles each and just put them at home physical singles in Japan is so much more profitable compare to the rest of the world ;)

again she chose not to perform... shows her sincerity in just wanting to attend the funeral as Whitney's friend

You know, as a Whitney fan I greatly appreciate Mariah's genuine love and sadness over Whitney. For her to actually cancel her GMA appearance speaks volumes. It's funny because I see these other celebs who were supposed to be Whitney's close friends going on TV every chance they get to talk about her. I know they love Whitney but I can't help but think they love the attention as well..... and here's Mariah cancelling her appearances. For those asking, Whitney and Mariah reconnected last year at a party overseas, there was a tweet that they were hanging out. For all we know they could've kept in touch more since then, maybe Whitney even got to meet #dembabies, I'm sure they talked about their kids now that Mariah's a mom so they had even more in common. Who knows? But they definately reconnected last year. I wonder if she'll go to the funeral? I hate saying that word. great post.. hope u r coping well though... i think all these divas rivalry are blown out of poportion... Whitney, Celine and Mimi are good friends i am sure... i think Mimi would have declined the chance to sing at the Grammys as well had she been invited.. she may be crazy but she has integrity too

only fans of divas will get into meaningless arguements, comparing sales, comparing who does well in concerts. who has more white hair etc
u realise fans of male singers like usher, justin timberlake doesn't get into this kind of fights? lol

it will only be a matter of time newer acts starts overtake the 4 divas in singles sales.. so i don't see the point in arguing actually...

Thanks Holidayguy for great work done
Do you have the no of spins for these xmas songs to date (mediabase)?
Mimi's AIWFCIY looks like the most played Xmas song every year, if you add up all the spins across all the format...

Airplay- vs Michael Buble 2011 vs Mimi 2010 (extra festive)
Sales - vs Bieber/Mimi 2011, Buble 2011, Glee 2011
