My 2 cents (112,020) by Lara from Middle East What MOIA and MIATEC lacked in production, was in her last 2 albums. Lyrically wise, it's the opposite. (Wednesday 22 October 2025; 10:41)

Immobile on stage (112,019) by Dove from United States Because we know she always does the best she can with what she's got. (Wednesday 22 October 2025; 10:23) this is a reply to message 112,018

Immobile on stage (112,018) by Alexis Carrington-Colby from United States How can you attest that she is doing the best with what she's got? What is your evidence? (Wednesday 22 October 2025; 03:53)

Immobile on stage (112,009) by Lambi from USA I looked it up, apparently Fibromyalgia is likely caused by a complex interaction of genetics, neurological changes, environmental triggers, and stress, leading to central sensitization, an amplified pain response in the nervous system. Often triggered by an event, such as: infections, injury, surgery, emotional trauma (e.g., PTSD, overwhelming stress) We may never truly know, as she is a private person, which is entirely her right, but certain aspects do seem to make sense. For me, the most painful part was witnessing the entire world watch her being exposed for lip-syncing in such a jarring way. It is already not normal for billions of people to know a human being. What more when something personal you've tried to protect, be revealed so publicly and in such a humiliating fashion. I will never comprehend what that does to one's psyche. Mariah has long since recovered as she's done countless of shows and people are still showing up but just the fact that her body had to actually experience that kind of shock saddens me. Anyway, what ever it is, I can attest she is really doing the best with what she's got. Let's all uplift Mariah's health in prayer. I pray she also takes the time to get the rest and healing her body needs, so she can keep doing what she loves and make music for the multitudes. (Tuesday 21 October 2025; 02:50)

The impossible (112,017) by Libra Lamb from USA There were so many finger snaps I believe Mariah sprained an index finger. But I still love it. I don't mind the finger snaps. Truly under appreciated. (Wednesday 22 October 2025; 03:35) this is a reply to message 112,010

The impossible (112,010) by Dove from United States Yeah, I can't listen to the whole album all the way through because of the "finger snaps", which, to me, sound like hands clapping. It does get repetitive. That was one of my main complaints when the album first came out. (Tuesday 21 October 2025; 03:32)

A no no (112,016) by Libra Lamb from USA Me. I love A No No. I love the Caution album as well. The Distance was really good, Caution should've been a single. GTFO was my favorite though. With You was a solid record. (Wednesday 22 October 2025; 03:33) this is a reply to message 112,013

A no no (112,013) by Giovanni from USA Now that I'm over my replay of "The impossible" I'm now on "A no no". This song is a bop and the production is good. I wish we had gotten a long extended version as well as a remix with Ariana with some killer background vocals. I love the Caution album, it's in my top five favorites from MC. I even love the cover art as well. Anybody like "A no no"? (Tuesday 21 October 2025; 20:26)

Jesus I Do (112,015) by Libra Lamb from USA I can't believe this song turned out to be my favorite track on the album. I went to bed singing it and woke up singing it. I hate that the album has already fallen off the charts. Many people are missing out on one of Mariah's best efforts. The Clark Sisters really made the song better with their incredible voices and melodies. Mariah did her thang too. She put her stank on it, as we say. I love the entire album. I hope we still get a deluxe version. I try not to skip any songs since they all offer something different and evoke different emotions in me. She really does offer something for everyone on her albums and this one is no different. I don't care about the charts or the general public, and if Jermaine likes it, then I like it. (Tuesday 21 October 2025; 20:59)

MusiCares (112,014) by Giovanni from USA Sorry but I got my info wrong. It is MusiCares who is naming Mariah person of the year not the Grammys. My mistake. (Tuesday 21 October 2025; 20:32)

2026 Grammys person of the year (112,012) by Giovanni from USA So apparently Mariah will be honored and was named person of the year at next year's Grammy awards. I'm so happy for her. In my opinion this is good for her career and can help with the next album. Hopefully she will be respected and more liked again by those who don't. (Tuesday 21 October 2025; 20:00)

Wow (112,011) by Bobby A from United States Thank you Bill for your kind words. We have been riding together a long time. (Tuesday 21 October 2025; 11:35) this is a reply to message 112,005

Wow (112,005) by Bill from the UK Nothing personal, but I think the recent comments needed to be addressed as they were presented as facts when they absolutely were not. I do the same when others come on here and start making stuff up. You also tried a couple of posts ago to dress me down but it doesn't bother me, nor should you let what I post bother you. To be completely honest I enjoy your enthusiasm and energy when you're talking about Mariah. And Bobby A and I are tight, I love him dearly and we've never had a bad word between us. He's one of the best fans I've ever come across. We've been friends for years. So let's move on and talk about Mariah and her great new music she's delivered. (Monday 20 October 2025; 16:37)

The impossible (112,007) by Bill from the UK Nice to see Memoirs get some love. My issue with the album was how Mariah handed the production of every track over to The Dream, so it very much stayed in the same gear, and the finger snaps can get a bit tiresome after a while. But lyrically it's great, her harmonies are gorgeous on songs like Ribbon and Candy Bling, and IWTKWLI was a fantastic cover. Languishing remains one of her best introspective ballads, so beautifully melodic and it sounds so fragile and delicate. In fact the one song that is quite jarring is Obsessed. The opener of Betcha Gon Know is fab, she really does a great job of painting the picture, very visual lyrics. (Monday 20 October 2025; 18:42)

Immobile on stage (112,008) by Dave from USA I have never heard she suffered from Fibromyalgia as the article posted suggested. I always assumed it was a combination of possible bipolar meds (Lithium) and lack of confidence on stage due to her vocal decline. (Monday 20 October 2025; 18:48)

The impossible (111,998) by jaker20 from US I'm glad fans are waking up to Memoirs. I loved it from the first listen. It's turned out to be Mariah's most listened to album in the streaming era, excluding Merry Christmas of course. I really hope Mariah pull out all the stops to release Angel's Advocate, unlikely but not being able to stream Angels Cry remix is wrong. (Monday 20 October 2025; 05:46)

The impossible (112,006) by Lambi from USA Honestly MOAIA is one of her better albums. She went pretty hard considering E=MC2's potential got cut too short due to her miscarriage. I remember playing it to friends and them loving Inseparable. I hated writing essays in school about topics I had no interest in and Memoirs really got me through the bleakness. I started humming "Boy I'ma love you until the end" from More Than Just Friends today, like I did in 2009. I love rediscovering how much I love a song. I also love how Mariah sang low in Candy Bling, very much how she sang through out HFIA. Rapriah giving homage to Ahmad's Back In The Day needs to get more credit. I'm the same Mimi Fame ain't changed me Butterfly flow like Muhammad Ali Wish I can bring you back like the O.D.B. (Monday 20 October 2025; 17:08) this is a reply to message 111,998

Wow (112,003) by Lambi from USA Also what is it? I've awakened to your pattern of just being eager to correct me immediately like assuming Bobby A. and I did not know ODB was dead when we were simply putting together a hypothetical '96 Super Bowl guest list for Mariah. You were so eager to make me feel stupid, completely missing the context. We're all just trying to have a blast talking about all things Mariah here. (Monday 20 October 2025; 14:42)

Wow (112,004) by T from USA ODB was still alive in 1996. [Webmaster: I think Lambi knows that. They were fantasizing how the '96 Super Bowl half time show would like with ODB as a guest. Some thought they were fantasizing about a 2025 half time show and said that ODB was dead. So it was all based on a misunderstanding.] (Monday 20 October 2025; 15:51) this is a reply to message 112,003

Wow (112,002) by Bill from the UK Thank you sir for putting an end to that nonsense. Back to Mariah, Here For It All continues to be played daily, something I haven't done since E=MC2 I'll have you know. The dreamy 70s vibe is not something I had on the cards when we were all speculating about how the album would be sonically presented, but I'm so glad it did. It adds a whole new dimension to her catalogue. (Monday 20 October 2025; 11:29)

Wow (112,000) by Lambi from USA Here in America people have awaken to the fact that the term "conspiracy theory" was introduced to the lexicon right after JFK was assassinated. They shot a sitting president on broad daylight and then launched operation mocking bird meaning the CIA hiring a bunch of journalists to control public perception and gaslight the citizens about what happened.

Wow (111,994) by Lambi from USA Reality is MJ's estate was magically stolen from him via fake signature right before his passing, which by the way, him and Mariah happen to be in the same music label. Thank you for proving my point about how shady these companies can be. If you still can't connect the dots in this day of age, where it's not a secret evil runs Hollywood, where celebrities are openly talking about their experiences because you are scared for the life of you, to be labeled silly little names then you are simply behind. And I can't help that. Have a chill day, Bill. (Monday 20 October 2025; 03:09)

The impossible (111,987) by Dove from United States I've always loved MOAIA but my love for it has grown over the years. My favorite lately is Inseparable. Especially the part where she sings "But now I see that no one is Inseparable - except for us." I love it. I also really love the part in Boy (I Need You) at 2:37. She sings "And never let you go boy, never let you go boy" and right after that line, right before the rap comes in, she sings either "they" or "babe" but I love how it sounds. It gives me life every time I hear it. (Sunday 19 October 2025; 17:29)

The impossible (111,997) by Libra Lamb from USA I understand, it's an album that was polarizing for fans. Definitely one of her most underrated albums. My absolute favorite song may be Candy Bling. Inseparable, The Impossible, Languishing are also in my head a lot. The entire album had no skips for me. I didn't mean to trash Imperfect, it just doesn't work for me. I feel like it's missing something but can't pinpoint what it is. Probably just a difference in tastes. With time it may ver well grown on me. Songs just hit different for different people and Mariah makes sure to include something for everyone in her work. Lots of love (Monday 20 October 2025; 05:36) this is a reply to message 111,990

The impossible (111,990) by Giovanni from USA Didn't mean to trash "H.A.T.E U" I just don't like it. I think the video could have been better too but you're right the album is definitely good and I can't believe I hated it before. I think the reason I like "Imperfect" is because of the music and production. HFIA reminds me a lot of MOAIA with songs like "In your feelings", Confetti & Champagne" and "Nothing is impossible". I also played "Obsessed" a few times because it's catchy and heck Mariah looks good. I like "Obsessed" because it's the song that broke Eminem and he has never been the same since. I just needed "Languishing" to be longer. (Sunday 19 October 2025; 21:13)

My introduction to Mariah (111,996) by Libra Lamb from USA Nice story Stacey, thanks for sharing. Mariah's lyrics always hit harder than anyone else's. (Monday 20 October 2025; 05:29) this is a reply to message 111,989

My introduction to Mariah (111,989) by Stacey from USA It was 1993. I was 15 years old. I was vacuuming my family room. I had my back to the TV with VH1 playing Mariah's live performance of Hero. You know when VH1 and MTV actually played music videos, lol. I stopped and turned around and thought, that voice - who is that? The rest is history. Mariah has that ability to put my feelings into words. "You look at me and see the girl, who lives inside the golden world; but don't believe that's all there is to see; you'll never know the real me" - Looking In. "They can say anything they want to say; try to bring me down, but I will not allow; anyone to succeed hanging clouds over me; and they can try hard to make me feel; that I don't matter at all; but I refuse to falter in what I believe or lose faith in my dreams cause there is a light in me shines brightly; they can try but they can't take that away from me." Thank you MC for providing me an outlet these last 30+ years. (Sunday 19 October 2025; 18:09)
