About Zachariah from Croatia: Mariah Carey fan and professional member of automotive community - both got me feeling emotions.

MC doing the Superbowl (108,173) by Zachariah from Croatia Oh thank God that somebody said it. I was thinking am I the only one who was shocked by the lame halftime show, with constant bad lighting, words I didn't understand and this beef with Drake - I don't know nothing about that so I didn't get it. They say that his performance was layered and it has a message but I guess I missed it. (Tuesday 11 February 2025; 12:26) this is a reply to message 108,171

MC doing the Superbowl (108,171) by Bobby A from United States After that lame performance from Kenderick Lamar, there will never be another rapper who will get the chance to do the Superbowl half-time show. His performance was horrible. It was something you would see Pepsi sponsor at a summer concert series. I agree with Randy. MC would have more engaging that what Kenderick Lamar gave us for 13 minutes. I am so sick of his beef with Drake. Lady Gaga or Beyonce will be the Superbowl half-time performer in 2026.

Lead The Way (108,169) by Zachariah from Croatia I love that song. Glitter is a masterpiece. My second favorite album after Butterfly. (Tuesday 11 February 2025; 08:48) this is a reply to message 108,166

Lead The Way (108,166) by BFF from United States "I'd given up hope Losing the faith that love Could be mine to treasure..." I've had this song on repeat the last couple of days. It's the perfect song for when someone unexpectedly comes into your life. You had thought about giving up and worried that you'd end up alone, but you can feel the winds shifting. That's the vibe I'm on right now. Thank you, under-appreciated ballads of the "Glitter" era. (Tuesday 11 February 2025; 00:58)

Make It Happen live performances (108,152) by Zachariah from Croatia I always liked performance from "Live At Today Show Mall of America". (Sunday 9 February 2025; 22:09) this is a reply to message 108,146

Make It Happen live performances (108,146) by Lainsky from Philippines Of all her live performances of "Make It Happen", VH1 Divas Live 1998 is my favorite. I will never get tired of watching it. The hair, the outfit, the raspy voice, the choir, the band, the stage, and the audience's engagement through dancing are all perfection. How about you, what's your "Make It Happen" live performance throughout the years? (Sunday 9 February 2025; 11:01)

Please (108,134) by Zachariah from Croatia Let's just hope that the song will be good and not boring. (Friday 7 February 2025; 11:58) this is a reply to message 108,133

Please (108,133) by Edward from USA When Celine and Barbra recorded "Tell Him", Barbra was 55, same age as Mariah is now, but she gave Celine a run for her money. I know it's a different time and context, but I had hoped Mariah would be at a similar vocal level now. Given that Barbra is almost 83 and Mariah's voice is what it is, the duet will likely be very subdued. Let's hope for the best. (Friday 7 February 2025; 04:51)

Barbra Streisand and Ariana collaboration (108,116) by Zachariah from Croatia I am tired of collaborations. I don't approve this. (Wednesday 5 February 2025; 10:34) this is a reply to message 108,113

Barbra Streisand and Ariana collaboration (108,113) by Shezz from Pk Wild rumours circulating about Mariah having done a song with Barbra S and Ariana reported by many sites for Barbra's next album. One site actually reported Walter A is the album's producer. (Wednesday 5 February 2025; 03:53)

The Grammys (108,114) by Zachariah from Croatia It is an absolute travesty that Butterfly wasn't nominated for an album of the year. It is a masterpiece and since then, I don't follow Grammy's any more. (Wednesday 5 February 2025; 10:06) this is a reply to message 108,111

The Grammys (108,111) by BFF from United States Grammys that Mariah was nominated for and should have won by the year: 1991 "Vision of Love" should have won for Record of the Year and Song of the Year. It's a better song and vocal performance than any of the others that nominated. 1996 "Daydream" should have won Best Pop Vocal Album. Joni Mitchell's "Turbulent Indigo" is not anywhere near Mitchell's best work, and "Daydream" is a better album. "One Sweet Day" should have won "Best Pop Collaboration with Vocals" and "Record of the Year". I loved Seal's "Kiss From a Rose", but it didn't need to win Song of the Year and Record of the Year. And why wasn't "One Sweet Day" nominated for "Song of the Year"? 2000 "When You Believe" should have won "Best Pop Collaboration with Vocals". "Smooth" by Santana and Rob Thomas did not need to win in this category. 2006 "We Belong Together" should have won Record of the Year and Song of the Year. It is undeniable that this song was the biggest of the year, and to give the awards to Green Day and U2 was slap in the face to Mariah when she had a great year. (Tuesday 4 February 2025; 18:16)

The Grammys (108,108) by Zachariah from Croatia I don't even understand what is she singing about. I can only focus on her first three albums - the rest is just a noise in my ears. And I tried. (Tuesday 4 February 2025; 15:51) this is a reply to message 108,106

The Grammys (108,106) by BFF from United States Beyoncé's music was decent at the beginning of her solo career up until the album "4". Particularly, "B'Day" had some good songs on it. Her recent albums often seem like they are written/produced by committees of tastemakers rather than organically produced as collaborations. And she just doesn't have deep, meaningful songs the way that Mariah and others do. It also feels wrong that Beyoncé has more Grammy Awards than Aretha Franklin. The Recording Academy has really eroded its credibility with these types of decisions. (Tuesday 4 February 2025; 12:46)

Covers compilation album (108,103) by Zachariah from Croatia With You I am Born Again with John Legend, live, is an absolute legendary performance. (Tuesday 4 February 2025; 10:46) this is a reply to message 108,102

Covers compilation album (108,102) by lighty from China Also Endless Love, Got To Be Real, With You I'm Born Again, etc. (Tuesday 4 February 2025; 05:27)

A bit harsh (108,099) by Zachariah from Croatia No worries, I understand totally. Her music just means so much to me that I really find it healing in some ways. (Monday 3 February 2025; 23:03) this is a reply to message 108,092

A bit harsh (108,092) by Jamie from UK Zack I appreciate your message and also your passion. But no one has been negative if anything we have shown our love for Mariah. We all too have passion hence why we are upset at what's is now. It doesn't come from a place of hate, it comes from a place inside us that only wants the best for her. There comes a time in life when you have to accept things have changed both in yourself and from those around you. It's not negative it's just reality unfortunately. And yes we are so blessed to have lived in the same time as such greatness, but in my opinion without being negative and yes we don't know what's going on in her life, that greatness of her live performances has past. She can continue to perform on stage if she so chooses, it's her life, but in my opinion I would stop. I wish you well. (Monday 3 February 2025; 13:15)

A bit harsh (108,090) by Zachariah from Croatia It's a bit harsh to say that her voice is gone, come on, have some respect. Her voice is still here, obviously with some struggles, but it is still there. Regarding the stage presence - we don't know what is she going through or if she is just catching the momentum. Feeling sad watching her old videos? Come on, you should be happy for them and enjoy them. We were lucky to be alive in the same time as she was and be able to enjoy them and her talent. I swear to God, sometimes I get so mad with the negativity here. (Monday 3 February 2025; 12:26)

My 2025 - hopes, dreams, wishes, and prayers for Mariah Carey (108,078) by Zachariah from Croatia For me, Charmbracelet was more of an therapy album, almost like a gospel theme one. Actually, it would be awesome if she would redo a whole album with a more gospel vibe. It has spiritual and anthemic vibe. I play it when I really need calm and spiritual vibe in my life. (Thursday 30 January 2025; 21:17) this is a reply to message 108,075

My 2025 - hopes, dreams, wishes, and prayers for Mariah Carey (108,075) by Bobby A from United States For me Charmbracelet is another outlier album. What do you think if 7 Aurelius and Dre and Vidal were the only producers on Charmbracelet? They could have really made Charmbracelet sell more copies and not been such a disjointed album in my opinion. I feel that Lyor Cohen gave MC some bad advice by telling her to choose Through the Rain as the first single. Charmbracelet was an great album, but it could have been better. (Thursday 30 January 2025; 15:05)

My 2025 - hopes, dreams, wishes, and prayers for Mariah Carey (108,064) by Zachariah from Croatia You are not. In one moment I was wondering, am I on some kind religious self help web page or on a Mariah Carey news page. (Monday 27 January 2025; 08:16) this is a reply to message 108,057

My 2025 - hopes, dreams, wishes, and prayers for Mariah Carey (108,057) by TJ from Norway Did Jesus turn your water into wine, yesterday? Am I the only non religious person on this board? I wish that Mariah get more reflected about the world around her and make good decisions, helping others and maybe write some meaningful music instead of so-called RnB she has made lately. (Sunday 26 January 2025; 09:43)

Music Box 30 (108,032) by Zachariah from Croatia I think she does them every day in her home or a studio but because of her perfection or an expectation of perfection that she thinks people expect from her, she gets stiff and or like a vocal puppet. (Wednesday 22 January 2025; 18:14) this is a reply to message 108,031

Music Box 30 (108,031) by MusicfanJ from Germany I have to agree with Brandon. But it would be really nice if Mariah surprises us with a confident acapella version in the future. Or just a live version of a new song. Maybe on an event which is not watched by so many people around the world. That the pressure wouldn't be so high. (Wednesday 22 January 2025; 13:22)

Music Box 30 (108,030) by Zachariah from Croatia Well, my thoughts about him are very negative so I would not enjoy it. Snoop Dog? Wow. That's a surprise. (Wednesday 22 January 2025; 12:16) this is a reply to message 108,028

Music Box 30 (108,028) by RL from USA Zachariah - Snoop Dogg, Nelly, Rascal Flatts, Jason Aldean and more performed. It was a really great night. (Wednesday 22 January 2025; 02:54)

Music Box 30 (108,023) by Zachariah from Croatia I was shocked that she decided to sing. I honestly thought that nobody will sing at his inauguration. I guess I was wrong. (Tuesday 21 January 2025; 20:32) this is a reply to message 108,021

Music Box 30 (108,021) by MusicfanJ from Germany I watched the inauguration. Carrie Underwood was fantastic. Yes, the acapella version was wonderful. I'm still very happy with MB30 too. I love the booklet, the bonus tracks, remixes and concert CD. "My prayer" is always on repeat. (Tuesday 21 January 2025; 14:14)

My observation (107,981) by Zachariah from Croatia Agreed, times are tough in the world and every day I see more people struggling with mental health or health in general, finances, relationships, superficiality. Something needs to change. Empathy is missing and it is an alarming thought. (Thursday 16 January 2025; 10:42) this is a reply to message 107,979

My observation (107,979) by Bobby A from United States Did anyone else noticed last year, we became like family to each other? We showed more love and support to each other than in 2023 and 2022. Maybe it is just me. I read so many celebratory and love posts last year from all of us. Let's keep it going in 2025 to support each other around the world, those in L.A. and of course MC. I listen to Coast To Coast with George Noory at night and it just has me thinking more about what is happening everywhere in our world. (Thursday 16 January 2025; 00:42)

Article: Mariah Carey shares busty New Year's post (107,912) by Zachariah from Croatia Simply stunning. (Friday 3 January 2025; 13:03)

Merry Christmas from Croatia (107,850) by Zachariah from Croatia Hi guys, I just want to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and to thank you for being here and spreading the word about Mariah. It means a lot to me to just log on here and read your opinions about her and her music. I hope 2025 brings new music for us, maybe in a form like a rock-grunge album. I think it would be so unexpected and epic. I love you all. (Wednesday 25 December 2024; 10:22)

Passion (107,815) by Zachariah from Croatia I don't think is that. She can sing and she can hit the notes. It is hers saturation for creating the new music. She has done it all. (Saturday 21 December 2024; 14:19) this is a reply to message 107,814

Passion (107,814) by Jamie from UK I personally think it's cause she can't sing it the way she wants too. She was vocal during caution saying that her voice wasn't in the place she wanted for the album. I love the Caution album but I guess from her side she's the perfectionist. (Saturday 21 December 2024; 11:03)

Week 3 (107,806) by Zachariah from Croatia I think she will release a banger in February and then another banger right before the summer. An album will drop right around in early September. (Thursday 19 December 2024; 14:54) this is a reply to message 107,805

Week 3 (107,805) by Bobby A from United States What a great end to 2024. This is a good sign that people will embrace MC16 in 2025. I am predicting a summer release. (Wednesday 18 December 2024; 22:32)

Have you heard? (107,776) by Zachariah from Croatia I had two accidents (one was my fault, the other one not) while Mariah was playing but then again - I only listen to Mariah in my car since I drive and own a car (since 1999) so... (Thursday 12 December 2024; 14:32) this is a reply to message 107,775

Have you heard? (107,775) by Stacey from USA I can neither confirm nor deny this rumor, lol. MC's version of Santa Claus Is Coming To Town is also known to cause issues during driving. Not that I would know. (Wednesday 11 December 2024; 04:04)

So happy (107,770) by Zachariah from Croatia I am so happy for number 1 position again. So so happy. (Tuesday 10 December 2024; 12:34)

In vain (107,751) by Zachariah from Croatia They are all fighting in vain, because for the last 5 years, Mariah has the biggest hit of each of those year. Facts. (Wednesday 4 December 2024; 14:18)

Billboards top artists for the 21st century (107,726) by Zachariah from Croatia Well, let's be honest - Mariah was huge by the end of 20th century, so this is a valid list. (Friday 29 November 2024; 10:43) this is a reply to message 107,724

Billboards top artists for the 21st century (107,724) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter She definitely has nothing to prove but it's a shame that Billboard didn't honor the artist that holds possibly the most records on their charts. Not having her in the top 20 is insane to me. She's literally made some of the people on that list become singers because they were inspired by her. You cannot spell MusiC without MC. Her rise then massive fall followed by the greatest comeback of all time alone should have cemented her on that list. (Thursday 28 November 2024; 03:35)
