Grammy nominations for HFIA (114,671) by BFF from US
HFIA is a deserving body of work, so it would be nice to have her win at least one. It's just a shame she didn't get anything for "Daydream" and "Butterfly" when she was arguably at her creative peak. It was also frustrating that they did not include the awards she won for "The Emanicipation of Mimi" during the televised broadcast in 2006.

I think the Grammys have always suffered from a lack of balance and patterns of questionable decision making. It's hard to make sense of giving more awards to Beyonce (35) than to Aretha Franklin (18). Or even Taylor Swift (14) having more than Joni Mitchell (11).

Grammy nominations for HFIA (114,670) by Lainsky from Philippines
Let's hope and pray that this time she'll win almost all the awards she'll be nominated for, if not all.

Christmas (Baby Please Come Home) (114,669) by Lainsky from Philippines
I could not agree more. Mariah's version is better than the OG. At first, I thought it was not a remake, but of course, our queen has the magical vocal power to cover songs and make them her own OG. Right?

Grammy nominations for HFIA (114,667) by Bobby A from United States
It was reported yesterday that MC submiited several HFIA songs to the Grammys for nominations. We will find out on November 16th. Something tells me that this is the year. I say that because MC has had this glow about her for the past 2 months. It is like she is preparing for The Emancipation of Mimi era all over again. Everything this year since MC's Winter Olympics performance has been on beautiful.

Christmas (Baby Please Come Home) (114,666) by Edward from USA
I agree with you there, Bill. It'd better be the original album version. After what Darlene Love said about Mariah, she can go suck a lemon.

I think the If It's Over cover is the only one I loved.

Christmas (Baby Please Come Home) (114,663) by BFF from US
I think it would definitely be the original 1994 recording since that one is already played frequently around the holidays and has already appeared in the top 20 of the "Holiday 100" chart. I think it's way better than Darlene Love's version, and because Love didn't write it, she can't really claim it's "her song".

It's not that her versions weren't approved, it's because it would have been too expensive.

Christmas (Baby Please Come Home) (114,661) by Bill from the UK
If they do start promoting Christmas (Baby Please Come Home), I pray to God it is the original 1994 version and not that dreadful remake that was done for one of her stupid specials.

I watched the show live and the producers had amaeturs sing MC's songs. I found out after the Anytime You Need A Friend performance when Shazam did not recognize it. Lol. One male singer sounded really good on If It"s Over. I loved the singer who sang #Beautiful. I guess Sony Legacy or Def Jam would not approve ABC's price for MC's actual vocals.

Somebody's Ugly Daughter (114,659) by Lainsky from Philippines
That's a good insight, one all the lambs are hoping for, so the strategy delivers as expected. A couple of number-ones would be great, plus another number-one album on the Billboard main charts. I'm really curious to hear this album, so let's hope she releases it after the anniversary version of Glitter.

I watched the performances on YouTube but they were not the original versions sung by Mariah. Were they her versions on the real show when it aired?

Somebody's Ugly Daughter (114,657) by Rose from United States
I have an active imagination. I was thinking in the show (Elle) Liz could sing it in her voice like it's her song but then one day she gets sick so Elle has to take over and sing it one time in Mariah's original recording voice. One or two songs. So they can get heard without stealing Liz's thunder. We all know Elle eventually becomes a lawyer not a singer.

I like the Robyn Sparkles storyline in How I Met Your Mother because it's unexpected. Robyn can sing?

Somebody's Ugly Daughter (114,656) by BFF from US
I'm wondering when she is planning to release the project. There were rumors that it would come out in late 2026, but it probably got pushed back to make room for the Glitter anniversary and whatever plans she has for this holiday season.

I'm reading rumors that Mariah and Sony are planning to promote "Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)" as an official single. Darlene Love would probably not be happy about that, but I actually think Mariah's version is more appealing. It would be nice to have a change from the focus on "All I Want for Christmas is You".

Mariah might be able to pull off a few more US #1 singles with this kind of strategy. I think she deserves it considering she's had four songs peak at #2 (Can't Let Go, Endless Love, Loverboy, Shake It Off) and barely miss #1. And it might even work with a non-holiday song. I remember how popular "Running Up That Hill" by Kate Bush became after it appeared in "Stranger Things". It didn't hit #1, but it came pretty close at #3.

I'm preparing myself to be underwhelmed by the Glitter deluxe edition but hope I'm pleasantly surprised.

Glad to hear you're doing better, Jamie. I've had a rough year myself. Mariah's music can definitely be helpful for those hard times.

Somebody's Ugly Daughter (114,653) by Rose from United States
I watched the series Elle on Prime video. It's Elle from Legally Blonde when she's in high school in 1995. I thought it was so cute. They have this part where they have little indie concerts at a carpet store. They could have one of the bands perform a couple of the songs. It would be Mariah's voice from the recording back then, but lip-sung. One of the main characters is a singer, but I don't know if she would want lip-sing. It would need to be an actress who can't sing and wouldn't mind miming the Mariah track. Some reviews I read said they didn't like the show but I really liked it. I'm not sure if they're having another chapter but if they did this would be a fun way to showcase the songs.

Somebody's Ugly Daughter (114,650) by Bobby A from United States
I have been thinking all day about how MC can release Somebody's Ugly Daughter and it have the biggest impact like an unreleased David Bowie or Fleetwood Mac project. So here is my list.

1. Record Store Day 2027
2. Partner with Target and Wal-Mart for exclusive CD and vinyl summer 2027 release
3. 2027 boxset with 180g vinyl with two 7 inch records of Love Is A Scam and Demented and commentary by Jimmy Fallon and Questlove
4. 2027 exclusive double CD sold only on MC's website with 5 extended versions remixed by Mick Jones (Foreigner) and Dave Stewart (Eurythmics)
5. 2027 Black Friday exclusive boxset, double CD with rough writing session demos, acappellas, and two 7 inch records
6. Follow the same physical preorder and streaming rollout like Glitter, but use only one physical preorder partner

I wish you all the best and a good recovery. I've been dealing with chronic pain for years now. The things that help me a little bit are to be thankful with the simple and little things that life offers and to stay grounded.
