AIWFC and In Your Feelings (112,472) by jaker20 from US
Some thoughts:

I think at the very least, AIWFCIY get at least 1 week on top this year, tying the record. But it will be very close this year. Last Christmas nearly beat it on Thursday, and it's close again yesterday.

Bruno Mars: I don't understand why lambs are spreading this bs, it's not going to happen. In Your Feelings is doing well on urban radio but those are pay for play. They're not organic. I think if they want to push it as a single, they should do it after the holidays. Right now, it is hurting AIWFCIY this year, her team is not focused and neither are fans. The more they push In Your Feelings right now, the more both will fail.

Last year, she had promos and photoshoots about the new vinyl covers, there was a lot from her during the first weeks of November. But this year, because of HFIA, Mariah is likely already worn out and you can feel it from the lack of activity from her and her team. And that slight dip of push from her team have a big impact on algorithms for AIWFC. We'll see.

A lukewarm reception and a seven year absence (112,471) by Zachariah from Croatia
I noticed that as well and said to myself, where is she these days?Either she is cooking something or else. Caution was a good album but HFIA is better but again, wrong singles (Play This Song ) with a boring video and Sugar Sweet (without a video) messed up everything. I don't wanna see of hear In Your Feeling as a next single with Bruno Mars on it. Enough with duets. I want Nothing Is Impossible with an amazing video right before Christmas. Or, she should just go crazy and release a grunge album with her as Bianca.

A lukewarm reception and a seven year absence (112,469) by T from USA
It's Time... to let the Christmas thing go and do its own thing. I actually prefer the it's time announcement and that's it in terms of promoting AIWFCIY. Less is more now. The song has gone to #1 for eighteen weeks. After this year she will own the record for longest #1 hit, that's enough for me. Even if it never hits the top spot again after this year that will be okay and the song will always be legendary. HFIA suffered not from the long wait but from Christmas itself. That's all people want from Mariah, and all she wants is you.

A lukewarm reception and a seven year absence (112,468) by Bobby A from United States
You know it is funny that MC has been really quiet on social media since her "It's Time" video. Her Las Vegas Christmas shows begin November 28 and she has not promoted it at all. And it was reported across multiple social media websites and ABC news that she is worried that AIWFCiY may underperform this year. Do you think MC is feeling the effects of HFIA's lukewarm sales and chart performance? Caution and its singles were still on everyone's mind for at least 6 months after the album's release. I am sure Gamma has already formally reduced MC's contract payout to get back the label's negative overhead cost for HFIA's low sales numbers. A seven year absence and the wrong choice of producers may be what caused HFIA's lukewarm sales reception. Could AiWFCIY's popularity lose its hold after this year?

My two nieces (a year and a half) blow kisses to a cushion with Mariah's face printed on it that I have. And I always sing to them Supernatural. Lol.

A little life update (112,464) by Stacey from USA
Absolutely. Kids do have a mind of their own. I thought I might have had a breakthrough during the summer of 2017. My kids loved listening to the "you don't know" song aka You Don't Know What To Do as we drove to swimming lessons. They were 9, 7, and 4 at the time. But alas, Minecraft, Roblox, Nintendo Switch, art, drawing, etc are more important. I will say my 17 year old daughter calls Mariah the queen of Christmas. She says no Christmas music before Halloween since "the queen hasn't thawed yet". She loved this year's It's Time video. So, all is not lost, I guess.

I won't allow it (112,456) by Randy from USA
Congrats Mimi. I honestly felt the same you did. I wanted them back together for two reasons. #1 She said she never wanted her kids to grow up in divorce. #2 In the book she wrote that if egos hadn't gotten involved they could've worked it out. I really did like them together and I like Nick. In interviews. I don't know who he is in private. Because to drop all those kids just because says a lot. It's impossible to be a good father to that many no matter how much money one has. Oh well. Once again, MC made the right decision as far as leaving a man. I have given hope on that.

Summer Walker (112,455) by Terna from Nigeria
To hear Mariah in the background was a highlight for me, that song is timeless, and one of her most nostalgic tracks for me. I love that it's getting the recognition it deserves and Mariah, her flowers. It's a big honor when the younger generation sample your music. It keeps it alive reintroduced to a whole new generation.

A little life update (112,454) by TJ from Norway
Wonderful news. My father tried to influence me on The Beatles, The Who, Deep Purple, Uriah Heep, Rolling Stones and so on with no luck. You can't imagine how many discussions we have had, and still have about music. I sent him some songs of SUD, and that was interesting music in his eyes. My mom hated Mariah as I grew up because of her high notes, and the fact that I played them over and over again on big speakers (sometimes hanging out of the windows so everyone in a miles radius could hear me playing All in Your Mind on repeat). Later on, like 10 years ago, she heard Hero on the radio and had to admit that Mariah was all right. Her PTSD from the 90's was long gone. Lol.

I think you should hear with Stacey if she was able to transfer her "Mariah madness" on her kids, or if she failed like my father. Anyway, I wish you a healthy pregnancy and all the best. As a teacher, my advice would be: keep her away from iPads and screens for the first two years.

Mimi, great news indeed. Congratulations to you and your husband. A little baby girl, how amazing. I'm really happy for you. Wishing you a smooth, healthy pregnancy and sending lots of love your way.

Bruno Mars' midas touch (112,451) by MusicfanJ from Germany
I had a vision of Bruno. And it was all that you've given to me. I really want a duet with him since Bruno Mars entered the music world with his debut album. They would sound so good together. The same with John Legend, where we have at least this one live version.

Bruno Mars' midas touch (112,448) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter
While I agree the song is primed and ready to have Bruno's vocals added because it is so his style I think Mariah maybe upset with Bruno. Didn't she mention him a few years back in a tweet, tagging him and asking for a collab and he never replied. Maybe he replied in person who knows but if he didn't that's a big insult especially when the queen came knocking. So maybe that's why she hasn't reached out since then.
