MC17 (113,055) by Giovanni from USA I definitely think Caution is better, it's better produced. It's a no skips album. Also "Nostalgic" is actually a very good album title and I think Mariah should consider it. It would need a good album cover to go with it.

MC17 (113,005) by Lainsky from Philippines I feel the same way, Giovanni, I prefer "Caution" over "HFIA". I've been dreaming about an album where Mariah Carey returns to her beginnings. I envision a sound reminiscent of her earlier work, similar to her first albums up to "Daydream". It would have a pop vibe with a touch of R&B, featuring elements like those found in "Fantasy" or "Dreamlover", as well as "Love Takes Time" or "Without You", and songs akin to "Underneath the Stars" or "Can't Let Go" Additionally, it would be great to hear another remake or duet, which has become a tradition on her albums. I hope she titles the album something like "Nostalgia", "Old School", "Back Then", or "Classic", something that fits the overall theme. (Wednesday 14 January 2026; 05:37)

2026 Mariah (113,054) by Edward from USA Rumor has it she's releasing a new song in the summer called "Greenland". So, don't lose hope. (Wednesday 21 January 2026; 03:47) this is a reply to message 113,052

2026 Mariah (113,052) by TJ from Norway Mariah wrote There's Got To Be A Way, back in the early 90's, late 80's. I wonder if she is still up to date of how the world is today. (Tuesday 20 January 2026; 19:04)

Trilogies and sister songs (113,053) by Haiji from United States I get why CTTA would be a good choice, sonically and empowering but imo I've always looked at that song as more of a statement, even a diss song to the label at the time for the treatment she was getting post divorce. So for me, it doesn't really fit with the other two. It's definitely in the same realm of style and production. (Wednesday 21 January 2026; 00:16) this is a reply to message 113,049

The JD bounce (113,051) by Lainsky from Philippines Let's hope and pray it's true because I'm dying to see her bounce back. HFIA deserves a deluxe edition with a few new songs. (Tuesday 20 January 2026; 03:05) this is a reply to message 113,050

The JD bounce (113,050) by Bobby A from United States It would be smart of MC to plan a JD ballad as the lead single for the deluxe edition of HFIA instead of a new remix version of one of the album tracks. IYF making it to the top of the R&B chart shows that people have missed hearing a Mariah Carey ballad on the radio. Releasing a JD ballad with that famous JD bounce could propel MC back to the top 10 or higher on the Hot 100 during the second quarter. I feel something big is on the way this March.

In Your Feelings (113,046) by Bobby A from United States In Your Feelings is doing extremely well on on R&B charts. I think Gamma chose not to announce it as the official 4th single for a reason to guarantee the success on R&B radio that is currently having. It had worked for sure. I guess that would explain the reason for no video. What is next for IYF? Hopefully, a remix is on the way. (Sunday 18 January 2026; 01:10)

One era to relive again (113,037) by Stacey from USA 100% agree. I remember getting my hands on a mp3 containing clips of all TEOM songs before its release. I was blown away. It felt like Daydream part II was on the horizon. Something big was about the blow up. My favorite MC clap back was when Barbara Walters interviewed her as part of her Oscars special. BW asked MC what do you say about all those who counted you out? MC responded, "Well if they counted me out, they will just have to count me back in." Fierce. Is TEOM my favorite album? No. But, it's definitely my favorite era. Everyone had written her off. There is nothing I love more than a great comeback story. Talent always wins out. Yet, to come back in such a way. Even radio had to play WBT. It was such a massive hit. Mariah didn't just come back. She kicked the door open with that "take that" attitude. I love it.

One era to relive again (113,034) by Bobby A from United States TEOM/2005 is one era that I wish could relive again. MC came back hard after the industry had basically written her off. I started calling MC "my girl" during this era. It was a great time for the Lambily and the new Lambs. Some of JD's, Bryan Michael Cox's, and Johnta Austin's best songs are on TEOM.

Trilogies and sister songs (113,023) by Lighty from China AIWFCIY original, ExtraFestive, SuperFestive. OK, just kidding. I would say WBT/DFAU/ISIL could be a potential trilogy, or swap ISIL with either Love Story of Last Kiss or Thanx 4 Nothin'. (Thursday 15 January 2026; 14:36)

Trilogies and sister songs (113,032) by Haiji from United States Oh wow, I never noticed that, you're right.

Trilogies and sister songs (113,029) by Lighty from China Wow that's a lot of sisters, almost a huge family. Speaking of Whenever You Call, I always thought of it as the sequel to When I Saw You. The lyrics, the melody, the build up, even the production are somewhat similar. Or it could also be All I've Ever Wanted Part 3. (Friday 16 January 2026; 02:46)

Trilogies and sister songs (113,031) by Bobby A from United States What about Miss You being a precursor song to WBT and Don't Forget About Us? All three songs are definitely about Derek Jeter. (Friday 16 January 2026; 05:12) this is a reply to message 113,026

Trilogies and sister songs (113,026) by Haiji from United States If you think about it, Can't Let Go would be the original WBT. The song structure, writing format, even the how she sings the verses, builds up to the climax. I'm not speaking about the style of singing since she sings a bit faster on WBT. And I know she pretty much does the whole build-up to climax on almost every song. I hope I'm making sense lol. So for me, the sister songs would be CLG, Everything Fades Away, Melt Away, Whenever You Call, Crybaby, Never Too Far, Yours, We Belong Together, DFAU, I Stay In Love, For The Record, H.A.T.E.U., Angels Cry and Faded. I'd throw 8th Grade and IYF in there but they're slightly different to me, since there's a beat change at the end. I do agree with the trilogy being WBT/DFAU/ISIL. (Thursday 15 January 2026; 21:41)
