About Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway: Fan since 1997

We need to be kind to Mariah, ok? (104,087) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway There [is] something very wrong with Mariah as of late. Her interviews have been low energy, not interesting at all, she seems apathetic, has no inspiration, she seems dead inside, her eyes have now sparkles. I have seen some of the footage from her first concert, I can't even tell if she is singing or not, no facial expressions, no nothing. People of this board, we have sometimes wondered if Mariah secretly visits this board, and if that is the case, no wonder she is in such a bad place right now. I feel bad for the harsh things I might have said in the past, all though my post are mostly positive. Our girl is not in a good place mentaly right now. I am [sincerely] concerned about her wellbeing. Let's do her a favour and be kind and understanding, she deserves that from the Lambily, if she can't get any praise here, where will she get it? Please guys, let's pause the sh*t posting and just send her our blessings and gratitude for a while, Mariah is hurting, it's obvious. I hope Mariah gets the rest and relaxation between shows that she needs. If continuing a stellar career has taken such a toll, I would quit, take a long hiatus, it's not worth it Mariah. Get better Mariah, we love you, don't you ever forget. My last post was a bit [dramatic], but still true. Just wanted to ad, Mariah's voice is in better shape than in years, sounds 2016'ish, and it seems like she has taken the lambily's advice and started to sing the songs in her lower register. I think it's actually mostly live, she rarely tries to hit high notes, and the ones she "hits" are mostly lipped. It was very refreshing to hear her just sing the songs with the voice that she got, the concert just feels so much more real and authentic. Continue like this, Mariah, I'd much rather listen to a whole concert with you singing in the middle to lower register, than faking the upper register and barely sing a note. But what is going on with Mariah besides that it's clear she has rested her voice, I don't know. Her recent face lift is obvious, her face doesn't move anymore, it has turned completely stiff, not a motion in sight, not even her eyebrows move when she sings, and that used to be her signature face movements. Maybe she's on extremely strong pain killers after all the surgeries that makes her heavily sedated, I have never seen her energy this low. (Friday 17 November 2023; 02:39)

Fantasy (104,003) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway I think it suits the staus quo of Mariah's career that the song that might stand out as her legacy besides AIWFCIY is Fantasy, and how telling that is for what Mariah has become. If I try to understand what is going on in Mariah World, is that she is now just a fantasy, and that is what she is selling us with new releases, concerts and "live" performances from her home. She has had a splendid career, nobody can take away her success, especially during the 90's, she will for ever be mentioned when people talk about the best singers in history. Nobody will deny that she had one of the biggest voices the world has gotten to know. I don't think the general public really knows about the condition of Mariah's voice at the moment, and I don't think they care. The Lambily knows, and we are frustrated. But I think if we still want to enjoy the rest of her career, and I don't think she will retire anytime soon, we have to embrace the idea that she is now a fantasy, a relic of what once was. At her show it is Mariah who is singing, but the voice might be from years ago, and between all the pre-reccorded tracks, she somtimes sings a word or a sentence with her current voice. We just have to believe in her like a child believes in Santa Clause. Mariah is now both real and not real at the same time. Mariah has become a fantasy you can chose to believe, and even if you don't believe, you can still enjoy the charade, because it induces positive feelings if you just go with the flow. It's almost Christmas season, and I'm going to enjoy Mariah, her old music, new music, YouTube videos from her Christmas shows, really get into the Christmas and Mariah spirit, and just pretend that it's real, much like Christmas itself.

Mariah isn't defrosting, she has never been frozen (103,648) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway Exactly, Andy. (Tuesday 3 October 2023; 16:11) this is a reply to message 103,647

Mariah isn't defrosting, she has never been frozen (103,647) by Andrew from the UK In other words: she has taken something used in a meme to mock her and, in one fell swoop, owns it. Cannot even believe the self-depricating humour she has shown is the source of criticism. It's like moaning about her having lost weight: give her credit where it's due. (Tuesday 3 October 2023; 15:50)

Mariah isn't defrosting, she has never been frozen (103,646) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway Mariah isn't defrosting, and that Mariah her self sees the irony in this is the reason she can say that about herself. I regulary check how many monthly listeners the biggest artists from the 80's and 90's have on Spotify. I know Spotify is not the best streaming service to use to asess how popular an artist is, cause there are large differences between countries in how widespread the service is being used, mostly Scandinavian, European and Western countries use it. But at the moment Mariah has almost 25 million monthly listeners, 176th place in the world. For an artist who started in 1990, that is not a bad number. Just a few months ago, Madonna had almost as many listeners, but she has seen a ressurgance in listeners the last few months, and now is up to almost 40 million monthly listeners. But Mariah is way ahead of Celine Dion, Kylie Minogue (even though she has a new album out), Cher, David Bowie, Prince, George Michael and many of the greats from the last decades. She is ahead of Whitney Houston as well. The current artists Mariah can't compeet with, but my point is, Mariah isn't defrosting before Christmas, that is just how she is talked about in our culture right now, how people on social media use humor, make memes, cause she is like this wave, a tsunami, you can't escape between 1st of November and 31st of December, everyone knows it, and everyone is inn with the joke. Truth is, Mariah is one of the most listened to artists from the last four decades all through the year. So, people on this board, don't get fooled by the memes and the gimmicks surounding Mariah from now on and untill Christmas, she is not defrosting, cause she has never been frozen, non pun intended, Madonna (Tuesday 3 October 2023; 15:15)

Perfection (103,185) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway I agree. Truths and facts and face value of things have started to get blurry. It's a dangerous road the world is on right now, and AI produced covers and songs from living and dead artists is just another thing on that road. Imagine in maybe 50 years, many people will have forgotten what's real and what's not real. If these AI manufactured things wont stop without a license or with warnings that it's not real, people in the future wont investigate every single thing they will come across, and fake song will be thought of as original work. With this developement, people wont know which songs that are actually written and sung by Mariah. One can question if it's a bad thing or not, perhaps Mariah's legacy will live longer? For me personally I would like the original work of an artist to live on, not some manufactured songs without soul. (Tuesday 15 August 2023; 03:40) this is a reply to message 103,179

Perfection (103,179) by Andrew from the UK The AI voice is incredible. I would likely not have known the difference. But you are right: knowing it's not real takes away the essential aspect of listening to and being a fan of an artist - especially in Mariah's case as somebody that writes and produces the music, too. Who gets passionate about a computer? YouTube fed me If Only You Know/Somewhere Over the Rainbow (1998) and You and I (2002) so it redeemed itself. But this AI world needs strict regulation - very quickly. The SAG are right to strike, musicians alike should down tools to negatively impact the Western economy until a regulatory framework is introduced whereby it is unlawful to reproduce someone's image and voice using AI without consent. No good - let me say again - no good can come from any of this. (Monday 14 August 2023; 13:12)

Mariah's version (103,102) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway You think the version at the Garmmy Nomination was awful? And what do you mean it was prerecorded and lipped? You can clearly see on Mariah's face that she sings most of it live. Some parts are lipped, yes, but those eye brows movements she can never replicate when she is lip synching, it's live for the most part. Mariah has to make decision in her life, to get healthier, work on her voice, if she really wants to impress people again. Or she can do whatever she's doing right now, and not being able to sing the easiest songs live, lip almost everything of every song. I don't know if she is content with status quo, living the best life with her kids. I have a feeling ever since she was married with Tommy Mottola, that practicing, rehearsing has become something that only bring out bad memories, that she has simply quit doing it, because she was forced to while married. But come on, it's been 25 years, time to move on. I just can't fathom that a person who was once known as one the best singers in the world, with an unbelievable range, can be happy with not being able to sing a tune anymore. Or I'm wrong, maybe she's just over it. (Sunday 30 July 2023; 10:46) this is a reply to message 103,101

Mariah's version (103,101) by Bill from the UK The monstrosity that appeared on Apple's Magical Christmas. Although 2008 at the Grammy's was also awful, how I wish she'd be able to sing like that now. Even though it later transpired it was a re-recorded version she, of course, lipped to. (Saturday 29 July 2023; 21:29)

Cut the crap (102,992) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway We all know that we are utterly dissapointed because our beloved Mariah hasn't released an album in years. But please, can you all watch, the last tone takes me to heaven. I'm not longer afraid to die, Mariah will be there to hold on to me. (Tuesday 11 July 2023; 02:53)

Who is she kidding? (102,873) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway She can't sing a note anymore. (Monday 12 June 2023; 20:53)

Maybe I'm missing something? (102,701) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway All of this must be the toughest for Mariah herself. I always want Mariah to be confident on stage, and it sometimes baffles me how nervous and insecure she can be, even in the days she could sing her heart out. What I feel strange is Mariah the last years have been so happy and smily on stage, seems pleased when she has finished a song and the audience applaudes. But is it really that fun to actually feel that you can't hit notes you used to, know that what the audience hear is not what is coming out of your mouth? I would personally feel extremely uncomfortable knowing I am hiding the truth. (Tuesday 9 May 2023; 13:13) this is a reply to message 102,697

Maybe I'm missing something? (102,697) by Tevin from USA I say these comments out of love. I agree with you Randy. I know Mariah loves to sing because it's literally her life and passion. I never would ask nor want her to retire. Even if she only produces songs in a low register with no belts, I wouldn't have a problem with that because I love her artistry. But with everything you mentioned in your post about all the smoke and mirror tricks that Mariah does, I can't help but wonder, doesn't that have to be torture for her. I mean I can't imagine standing on stage having to do all these tricks to prove your voice is still there, while worrying that something can, may and probably will go wrong in front of hundreds of not thousands of people. I just hope people on her payroll aren't forcing her to do all of these events if she isn't able or up to it. (Tuesday 9 May 2023; 03:31)

Maybe I'm missing something? (102,691) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway This is worse, she can't even sing in her middle range, have to hit those notes low. There's nothing left of her middle and upper register. I really don't know what to say. (Monday 8 May 2023; 19:42) this is a reply to message 102,683

Maybe I'm missing something? (102,683) by Randy from USA So I watched the concert and to be honest, this is how MC has sounded since Caution. No better no worse. The strained sustained notes to prove she can sing. The cutting up of long notes and adding stacatto "hey hey". The moments of clarity that we all know are backing tracks. Background singers singing verses that don't have backgrounds on verses on the original. The fidgeting with the ear monitor. The tossing the hair from side to side when she lips a note in case she miscounted how long to keep her mouth open. All of this is normal. So to come here and see you guys say it's a new low or it's bad baffles me. Some of you are acting like the house just caught fire. It burned down a long time ago. (Monday 8 May 2023; 12:39)

All My Life (102,668) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway I love All My Life, I have listened to it a lot. (Sunday 7 May 2023; 08:41) this is a reply to message 102,666

All My Life (102,666) by Randy from USA Bill, I stand corrected. On the innanet (webmaster please leave that spelling for dramatic effect) people have wrongfully given MC a songwriting credit, but I checked my Glitter CD and you are right. Rick James wrote All My Life. Then, me being the nerd I am, looked to see if it is a cover from one of his album cuts or something. It's not. There is a rumor that it's an old song he wrote for the Mary Jane girls but that can't be substantiated. So here's where we unreal fans stand. There are two songs in the Mariah Carey catalogue that she has recorded that are not remakes that she did not have a hand in writing. When You Believe and All My Life. (Saturday 6 May 2023; 12:27)

Concert in France (102,652) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway What is this concert I keep see footage from popping up on YouTube, was this recently, or is it from last year? From what I can hear at least, she is better than Global Cityzen, but still throaty and raspy, and still using the backing tracks we have become custom to. But she seems a bit more confident and happy. If the concert was from last year, then just forget this message. Then we just have to wait for Mariah's next gig which is not that far away. (Thursday 4 May 2023; 12:16)

If you were a star would you.... (102,573) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway Maybe not read comments and replies that often, I think that would have made me crazy. The comments are either overly positive or overly negative. I might come to this board once in a while, because we are not yes people on this board. But maybe I would have stayed away when the messages become too harsh. But I would go for the constructive criticism. (Tuesday 18 April 2023; 16:38) this is a reply to message 102,568

If you were a star would you.... (102,568) by Lady B from USA 1. Read your social media comments/replies? 2. Read your fan boards? Bonus question: 3. If you were the star that is the subject of this fan board, would you read it a second time? (Assuming you checked it once and saw the content, would you come back?) (Tuesday 18 April 2023; 06:36)

New Mariah titles (one word) (102,550) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway People from the US tend to exaggerate their family roots. Europeans think this is a bit strange, and sometimes think that when somebody says they are from Venezuelan or Irish decent, we think it's their parents. But more often than not, it's their grandparents or even further back in the family line, sometimes back to the founding fathers. The people from Europe almost never say we have different decent if it's not our parents, further back than that, or more than what is considered to be first grade immigrants, we might talk about it as more of a cultural heritage, but rarely put too much in the sence it's because our roots are from a different country. (Thursday 13 April 2023; 18:06) this is a reply to message 102,549

New Mariah titles (one word) (102,549) by Mariahsbaby from usa Respectfully, why are we lambs so confused about Mariah's identity? Her father is not a black Venezuelan man, rather an afro American man with an afro Venezuelan descent. It's not the same thing. (Thursday 13 April 2023; 16:34)

Music Box (102,505) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway Everything Fades Away was the last track on the European version of Music Box, and is my favourite track from the album. I first became a fan after My All and my first CD by Mariah was Butterfly. But after that I bought Daydream and a friend of me gave me her Music Box CD, for a long time Everything Fades Away was my favourite song to listen to, every night I had my headphones on and fell asleep listening to that song. What I think makes Music Box such a good album, is that it's the sound many people call the classic Mariah. When I listen to songs from Music Box, it makes me nostalgic, even though I didn't listen to it when it first came out. There are a few songs that bring me back to certain moments in life, and certain eras of time. The sound of Music Box makes you nostalgic about Mariah, her image and voice, but also to the 90s and maybe a time that now seems innocent and maybe less troublesome as compared to today's world. Music Box is also what made Mariah an international act, brought her to super stardom, and the songs from that album is what non fan people remember the most. Yes, it would have been really nice to get a Music Box'esque album, but to capture the era, moment and the phenomenon that was Music Box, will be hard to do. Now I think I have to listen to Everything Fades Away. (Friday 7 April 2023; 17:15) this is a reply to message 102,502

Music Box (102,502) by Randy from USA I usually agree wit you Edward but to call MIAMTEC depressing is kinda funny. The second half of Music Box is slit your wrist fantastic. Never Forget You, Without You, Just To Hold You Once Again, All I Ever Wanted and if Sony had the balls to add Everything Fades Away it's the saddest thing since Terms of Endearment. All MC albums are sad to me. That's why I connect. I think MIAMTEC is her worst album but not because it's depressing. It's incoherent and her vocals sound like they were produced by AI. (Friday 7 April 2023; 16:11)

Observation (102,455) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway Oh, please, this is just absurd. Like one of my ex'es said about Oprah Winfrey, don't believe too much in your own shit. This comparison is absurd and not valid. To become an athlete successful until their late thirties commits endless practice and everything in between. Mariah is an artist in music, what she wants to put in it and what she she wants to sacrifice is completely on her own terms. Mariah has got lazy, and will only bring to the table what is least expected by her. I think this is a natural thing of hers, her rebellion self, not wanting to push herself to the extreme to make people, and her Tommy Mottala ex, to love her. Mariah has made it her absolute most important point to make, that she just doesn't care, she wants to do her thing, and nothing else. If we, as her fans, would have directed her career, it would have been very different, still making Mariah sing songs in the key of "Music Box" and "Daydream". Yes, I would have loved it. But as a person who also have been "directed" by people outside, the most important and validating thing is to finally experiance that you are your own queen/king. You have brought the soundtrack to my life, the most important artist that I can think of. Nothing can change anyting, you are the love of my music life, I love you Mariah. (Monday 3 April 2023; 19:05) this is a reply to message 102,453

Observation (102,453) by Edward from USA Because athletes actually jump, dunk, fall, run, perform triple axels etc during their entire career and don't have the luxury of lipping any of their performances. They retire in their late thirties because it's well documented that their bodies are worn out by that age and could actually get hurt if they keep doing it. Michelle Kwan, one of the most loved and awarded figure ice skaters, retired at 26, most in that sport are done by 30. Singers are different. While they're not expected to sing perfectly, they can sing decently into their late seventies. The difference is that athletes can't sit their asses down and expect to win a game, they all have to practice and put in the work before every game during their entire careers. Some singers take good really care of their instruments and some just don't seem to care. You can't lip a triple Axel or a slam dunk even on a promotional presentation. (Monday 3 April 2023; 14:38)

Observation (102,444) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway I think we all are fans of her, and what makes a fan or not is not you to decide. I mostly write positive things about Mariah on this board, many of my posts are pure appreciation posts. Sometimes I am critical, and I think it's a good thing we all can be critical. When I talk to other people who are fans of other artists and they can't say even one negative thing about the artist, that is to be delusional. I think it's healthy to have a balanced view of one's favourite artist. In my teens I was a delusional fan of Mariah, praising everything, defending her so much people thought I was crazy. None of my friends are a fan of Mariah, but I think they feel it's ok to listen to her because I have a balanced view, and show reflection about her as an artist, acknowledging her more negative qualities as well. And for her anniversary, I posted an old video that Billboard posted a few years ago on Mariah's birthday, so I did my job, one friend liked the video. Mariah has been a big part of my life and still is. (Sunday 2 April 2023; 14:17) this is a reply to message 102,419

Observation (102,419) by Lady B from USA Many people on this board who post negative things about Mariah like to hid behind they "care" and are "fans", but are being "honest" and sometimes that means tough love. I'm on record as saying I think that's largely malarky, and they snidely deride me when I say that, But for a "fan board" very few folks wished her Happy Anniversary, and none of the regular critics. Indeed, plenty of posts before and after, but very few on the day of. Compare that to other fan boards of other artists, which have a higher percentage of posters who are actual, well fans.

MTV 90's (102,343) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway At least Mariah got the video van guard award in 2008 at the MTV Japan awards. (Sunday 12 March 2023; 15:34) this is a reply to message 102,342

MTV 90's (102,342) by Randy from USA Mariah should be given the video vanguard award. My favorite is Heartbreaker but Honey isn't too far behind. I also love the Through The Rain video. You know who else has not gotten the video vanguard award? Paula Abdul. I think it's a shame Nikki got it before MC and Paula. (Sunday 12 March 2023; 13:47)

Ain't No Other Fan (102,340) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway Yes, I think we all know that is one of the reasons Mariah's voice has detoriated, we are well aware that Mariah smokes weed. But I love her carefree behaviour on stage while doing it. (Saturday 11 March 2023; 20:49) this is a reply to message 102,337

Ain't No Other Fan (102,337) by Bill from the UK This is a pretty idiotic suggestion. Smoking of any kind is well known for having extremely adverse effects on the vocal cords, lungs, and throat and can lead to long-term throat and lung injury. Shortness of breath, constant dehydration, loss of vocal range, and even irreversible damage are all other negative by-products of smoking. (Saturday 11 March 2023; 07:04)

Ain't No Other Fan (102,332) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway I have just watched the YouTube video made by Ain't No Other Fan, the video name is long, but here it comes: "The one where Mariah Carey got *high* and proved her voice." It's from her Jamaican concert a few years back, and yes, we all know she was influenced by something, and it was not Chardonnay, darlin'. The performance is a mess, but hell, Mariah was so at ease that evening that she hit high notes and had runs she hadn't done in years and haven't done since. I can admit that I have taken the same substance as Mariah that evening sometimes, aan it really eases you off, makes you feel comfortable, down to earth, high in confidence and really good about yourself. I have watched the video, and all I can say is, if that is what make our girl Mariah relax and hit those high notes and runs, we know she can make, well hell, she should really hit them joints every show, relax, and show them girls and boys how you really sing. (Saturday 11 March 2023; 01:10)

Off topic (102,298) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway I have been in a whirlwind the last few years. As Mariah, I also have bipolar decease, and I can assure you all, Mariah's fluctuation in weight is all because of the medication. Sometimes you need less medication, then the weight goes off, sometimes you need more medication, and the kilograms just comes piling on. You can't control it, because your appetite is just getting larger, it's a roller coaster you can't get off. Anyways, I have a masters degree in psychology, wanted a phd, but my struggles with bipolar decease hindered that, I had to take a break. All through my life Mariah's live performance of "Make It Happen" from Madison Square Garden made me want to push forward, it is by far the most important song in my life, and it is performed by the most important artist in my life, Mariah Carey. Three years ago, I had to start over, move back to my home town, make new friends, new connections, and attended a school for people who are not ready for more education or to start working. I have attended that school for almost three years now, and today was my last day. Tomorrow I will start as a therapist for people with mental disorders and drug abuse. Mariah, besides my mom and friends, has been very important to me in this process, and lately, another song, a live performance, has become the soundtrack to my life, my days, in the struggles and happiness I have experienced the last few weeks. This live performance has been on and off YouTube, it is "Can't Take That Away" from VH1 Divas Live 2000. I have the whole concert on VHS, but I don't have a VHS-player anymore. The concert, over 20 years old, on a VHS cassette, lies there as a treasure. Mariah has a few power performances, and this performance shows her emotion, craftmanship, excellence. Even though her voice was not at her peak, she outsings most of the music world. That song has become my new "Make It Happen", though I listen to both songs almost daily. Ok, take a listen, it's Mariah at her best, she's absolutely beautiful, I could listen to this on repeat all day, enjoy. PS: When the choir sings "there's" and "a light", at the last chorus, my tears come out, why didn't Mariah include that on the studio version, absolutly beautiful. (Monday 6 March 2023; 21:36)

Mariah's voice (89,704) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway Maybe I'm speculating too much now, but maybe Mariah hasn't got the chance to rehearse that much while her children were very young. It is after she became a mother that her voice has declined a lot. Her children seem very close to her, there is no doubt she spends a lot of time with them. So now that they are a bit older, and they don't need that much supervision, maybe Mariah has gotten the chance to rehearse. Just a thought. (Friday 24 May 2019; 15:49)

Mariah in the new era (89,703) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway I'm so exited to see Mariah get the recognition from the music industry these days. People I know who love Madonna, Celine, Cher, Prince, Michael Jackson, Whitney Houston, have always said Mariah would never get the recognition the other superstars have gotten, simply because Mariah is not as great as them. Of course I have been there to challenge teir views, but they have all thought about Mariah as somewhat a joke. Nowadays, the music industry has started to treat Mariah as a great among greats, it's so nice for a lamb to get to see this, and I'm so glad they are showing Mariah respect before she's no longer with us. Let's make this a lesson to all of us. If you have person in your life you haven't told that you love them in while, do that. I am for sure going to tell people I appreciate that I love them more often. Mariah inspires me everyday, listening to Make it Happen while I'm writing this. (Friday 24 May 2019; 15:43)

With You snippet 2 (84,232) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway I was a bit disappointed with the first longest snippet, but the snippet Mariah shared today makes me exited. It's the first song since #Beautiful that gives naturally good wibes. I really like the repetitive "with you" and the harmonies, it induces positive feelings. (Tuesday 2 October 2018; 18:34)

Re: Mariah's voice and breath control (83,982) (83,992) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway Randy, that is the most honest message I have read on this board, thank you. I used to read and post messages here all the time, but the last few years I haven't, fun to be back. I also believe something happened between Daydream tour and Butterfly. A doctor friend of mine, who is also a fan of Mariah, firmly believes her voice got damaged because of the hose you have to have down your throat under the operation when you get breast implants. I remember he told me this 15 years ago, and I don't know what to believe. But if that's the case, I think it's the saddest way of damaging your voice, because of vanity. I think the voice now is at its worst that it has ever been. I still enjoy watching her performances, because I love her. But I always hope that there will be some improvement of some sort, but it never happens. Since she can't do wonders with her voice anymore, I wish she could at least have some more energy on stage. I saw her in concert when she visited Oslo during SSFT, it was amazing, and that is what I have decided to remember. I wish her all the best for this next era, and I hope she will keep on doing live stuff like iHeart, because no matter what, it's always fun to see a new performance. (Monday 24 September 2018; 23:43)
