Article: Mariah Carey teases original "Lead The Way" recording (114,801) by Lainsky from Philippines
My second favorite ballad of all time from her discography is making a buzz on X and IG, at least the snippet of the 1997 recording. I hope she releases it as an official single for this album with a music video. It's about time the present world heard her powerful vocals in this well-written, perfectly sung, and well-recorded love song. It's better than We Belong Together, IMHO. For the album, may it debut in the Top 10, ideally higher than No. 7. Just wishing and hoping.

Daydream album (114,800) by Lainsky from Philippines
Really? This is amazing. I never bothered checking out the Billboard chart, except when Mariah charts, which has become quite rare since MIAMTEC.

Glitter 25 bonus disc tracklisting (114,799) by Travis from USA
Fortunately, there's a CD re-release for this, but unfortunately, it's only the original album and doesn't contain any of the bonus tracks from the anniversary editions which 3 are available on the pink vinyl and 15 are available on the expanded digital edition from what I have seen and researched.

So will we be able to buy a cd with these extra songs? A cd, not vinyl.

Daydream album (114,797) by Bobby A from United States
Daydream re-enters the Billboard 200 album chart at 163. Can you imagine what Glitter will do next week?

Prince collabo (Glitter) (114,796) by Billy from Greece
I wonder what happened to the song(s) Mariah worked on with Prince, something she confirmed during promotional interviews before the album/movie came out.

No kidding, right? I am dying to hear this version of one of my favorite ballads.

Glitter 25 bonus disc tracklisting (114,794) by BFF from US
I'm disappointed because the track listing reads more like a "Loverboy" or "Never too Far" EP rather than a set of rare/vault tracks like what we got for "Music Box". We can all verify the existence of other original songs that Mariah registered for the "Glitter" project. "Royal Tones", "Lillie's Blues", "Glitter" to name a few. It just seems strange to not have at least one or two unreleased songs from a project she worked on for four years. Even if she didn't include new songs, there could have been more variety of alternate versions. The alternate take of "Twister" you can clearly hear at the end of the movie, the live performance of "Reflections (Care Enough)", an alternate take of "Don't Stop".

But perhaps she's saving leftover songs for a "Rarities 2" compilation? I hope we at least get full remix EPs for "Loverboy" and "Never Too Far/Hero" on streaming.

Tracks 8 - 15 are all "new" to a degree, and certainly look interesting (writing session, rough demo, alternative takes etc.). It's certainly much better than the Butterfly anniversary edition. Mariah always said her and Westlife were planning to work together again after the success of Against All Odds in Europe, who knew it was a shelved Glitter duet? I just assumed they never bothered. I'm excited. And hey, it's better than nothing. I was hoping she'd put out Loverboy and NTF/Hero EPs as they both had a lot of remixes done for them.

The girl we fell in love with, the woman she became (114,792) by Edward from USA
Bobby A, Rosa has been around long enough to know that everything I said was in good spirits. You guys should know me by now. And no, I won't be the number one poster this year. Before Lambi disappeared after Eric's comment, she was posting more than five messages a day, so I think she'll take that title. You'll definitely be number one again this year, though.

As for Christmas, I won't be in New York this year. I'll be visiting family out of state. I usually go see them for Thanksgiving, but I'm switching things up and spending Christmas with them instead.

Glitter 25 bonus disc tracklisting (114,789) by Lighty from China
Actually many artists are doing the same, like Sam Smith with In The Lonely Hour, Nelly Furtado with Loose (twice already), Beyonce with B'Day, Gaga with Born This Way, just to name a few. Even JLo's 25th anniversary edition of the JLo album is packed with some never-heard-before versions of her songs, and I'm genuinely looking forward to Britney's 25th anniversary edition of her Britney album, which will include 5 previously unreleased songs from her vault.

That said, no one beats Mariah when she released those writing session rough demos for Daydream30.

Glitter 25 bonus disc tracklisting (114,788) by Lainsky from Philippines
I share the same sentiment after seeing the track listing she posted on X. It would have been great to have a brand-new, unreleased track or two. Instead, it's mostly seven older songs presented in different versions or timelines. Oh well, I have a feeling I'll stick to the original album, along with the Loverboy Firecracker version and "Out Here on My Own" to enjoy.

Glitter 25 bonus disc tracklisting (114,787) by Tevin from USA
I would have loved a new song, but I'm happy she is giving us something. Let's not forget a few years ago she didn't even recognize the album existed. Also the January 97 version of Lead the way will basically be her Daydream voice, so I can't wait to hear that.

I'm just grateful we are getting something because other than maybe Taylor, no one else is dropping anniversary packages like this. Now MiMi if you are reading this, open the vault please and release Rarities 2 next year.

Edward, go easy on Rose. Do you remember 14 years ago when I would get carried away with so much excitement? It took me about the recording of the Caution album to find my voice with less predictions and crazy Dear MC requests. Plus, I feel you asking me to upload a face pic as my avatar in 2022 made me tone it down and it made me blush too. I feel you are going to be the number one poster this year. I want you to have the title this year. Will you be home in New York this Christmas?

I see it on Amazon music and 95% of the album's songs are blacked out and unavailable to play.

Stop everything. We're getting the original 1997 Lead the Way from Butterfly? That in and of itself makes the entire deluxe worthwhile.

Wow that looks more like a Never Too Far EP. Yes must say I'm a little disappointed there isn't more new unreleased tracks.
