Lip syncing (111,285) by Dove from United States Right and the OG's. I was grouping "OG's" with Lambs since "Lambs" are Mariah Carey fans. But we can make a separate category. (Thursday 18 September 2025; 06:10) this is a reply to message 111,270

Lip syncing (111,270) by Bill from the UK And the OGs. (Wednesday 17 September 2025; 17:46)

My prayer (111,271) by Dove from United States Me too. That's my biggest prayer for Mariah. That she will meet her soul mate and they will be happy and content for the rest of their lives. Someone like Tina Turner's second husband. You could tell he adored her. Mariah writes a lot of songs about love so I think deep inside it's what she truly desires.

Lambi (111,261) by MusicfanJ from Germany That's my biggest wish for Mariah, to find a real partner/man. (Beside health of course, the most important thing.) Not a clown or another player or wannabe. I think Mariah's chosen men are mostly awful. The same with Mr. Anderson, I hope they only make music together. Just business. For a serious partner, he's a no no. Bryan and Mariah were a beautiful couple. He seemed like he really cared for her. And as a human he seemed to have a good heart and spirit. It's so sad it didn't work. I remember the little video where they were playing table-tennis together. Mariah was looking so happy and normal. No diva, just a woman who enjoys the time with her man. (Wednesday 17 September 2025; 13:42)

Lip syncing (111,263) by Dove from United States I honestly prefer when she lip syncs nowadays. At least I know it'll sound good. The only people who notice are the lambs and the haters. (Wednesday 17 September 2025; 13:57)

Here For It All (111,154) by Dove from United States I play the tracks I want to hear first, then start from the beginning. (Saturday 13 September 2025; 02:13) this is a reply to message 111,135

Here For It All (111,135) by Bill from the UK Eddie how can you resist? I will be up at 00:00:01 on 26 September to listen to the album. It's been too long since we had new material. I can't wait to read everybody's thoughts on the album, the board will be abuzz I am sure. I'm highly anticipating "Jesus I Do", and the cover of "My Love". Question: do y'all listen to a new MC album in order, even playing tracks familiar (T-Dang and Sugar Sweet) or go straight to those tracks you want to hear first? (Friday 12 September 2025; 17:34)

JD interview on The Breakfast Club (111,107) by Dove from United States Thanks for sharing. I would be interested in listening to a full hip-hop album with MC rapping. I see her as a musical genius and I've never been disappointed by her music. I'm curious to see what her full, unrestrained, creative expression would sound like. It may not do amazingly well on the charts but she's already done that. Like I always say, authenticity is the highest vibration. She just needs to let the audience know what it is beforehand so they know what to expect. Like when Taylor Swift switched from country to pop and made an announcement about it. (Thursday 11 September 2025; 14:47)

Article: Busta Rhymes makes raunchy plea to Mariah Carey (111,102) by Dove from United States They're at a party. I rarely drink, but the few times in my life when I have, I've acted a fool with my friends and it was fun. I don't think we should scrutinize every little part of her life. She's allowed to have fun and act a fool with her friends at a party after winning a big award. We actually don't know if she's on any medication - it's all speculation. Mariah is an intelligent person and if she thinks Busta's words were inappropriate, she'll handle it. As we've seen in the past, she doesn't have a problem cutting people out of her life. I would hate to be famous. The only good thing about it (IMO) is the wealth that usually comes with it. (Thursday 11 September 2025; 02:13)

Golden ensemble and boots (111,091) by Dove from United States I love the golden ensemble because I love a crystal beaded moment. It seemed appropriate because it's MTV and she's pretty much winning a lifetime achievement award. It's both casual and over-the-top at the same time. I think she had a different dress planned for when she accepted her award, but since it was given to her before the show, she didn't get to show it. I agree that the longer length on the jumper looks better. Also, the longer sleeves threw off the balance. I prefer the shorter sleeves like the blue and purple one at Brighten Pride and the black one from Capital's Summertime Ball. Overall, I really like it. It's different than anything she's worn in her other eras and nobody else is wearing that silhouette right now. (That I can think of.) I loved the boots but I think the taller ones look better. I'm looking forward to a Mrs. Clause sparkly moment in this silhouette. But with over the knee boots. Maybe she needs to have them custom made so that they're taller. (Wednesday 10 September 2025; 15:41)

2065 (111,090) by Dove from United States Classic. (Wednesday 10 September 2025; 14:23) this is a reply to message 111,089

2065 (111,089) by Jamie from UK Haha here's Mariah still doing the best she can with what she got in 2065. (Wednesday 10 September 2025; 14:03)

Doja & Tate (111,019) by Dove from United States I really enjoyed Doja Cat's performance.I didn't know she could dance like that. It reminded me of The Misfits from my favorite cartoon when I was a kid, Jem and the Holograms. I also really liked Tate McRae's performance. She's mesmerizing to watch. She gives me Britney vibes. I thought Tyla was very pretty and I liked her outfit. It was fun and young. I like her accent. I'd never heard of her before. She was giving Rihanna vibes when Rihanna first came out. What are some good songs by her? I didn't watch the Gaga performance because it started out kind of scary. Haha but I just saw it has the most views. Maybe I'll watch it later. (Monday 8 September 2025; 13:11)

Beyonce country album (111,015) by Dove from United States I don't follow Beyoncé super closely. I mostly listen to her hits and the songs with music videos. Was her album not country? If it was country, and it was the best of the ones nominated, maybe she did deserve to win. Again, I don't know anything about the albums that were nominated because I don't listen to country music, but maybe it really was the best one. In high school I watched a made-for-TV movie about the Jackson 5. Legit, the only thing I remember from that movie is how the mom wanted to be a country western singer but they told her she couldn't because she was black. If that's the only reason she can't be a country singer then I think that's bullshit. With all the talented writers and producers they hire, I'm sure Beyoncé's country album was probably amazing. I didn't listen to any of it, so I can't give a personal opinion, but the other songs I have heard from her - they've been pretty great. (Monday 8 September 2025; 11:38)

Initial thoughts on VMA performance (111,014) by Dove from United States I liked it. I love the gold ensemble. (She is still the most beautiful girl I've ever seen.) I liked that the songs were more up-tempo and fun. The different mixes made it feel new. The only thing is, I wish it was a little longer and that she moved a little more. Not a ton, we all know she's not a dancer. I feel like she moved more and was more relaxed at Capital's Summertime Ball. If there is something wrong I wish she would just tell us. Authenticity is the highest frequency. Bianca falling was prime acting from that actress. That was a good fall. I would have liked the slap to look a little more real but maybe Mariah is afraid of getting sued or something. So she had to make it blatantly clear she didn't actually hit her. I loved her speech and interaction with Ariana. Funny and humble. (Monday 8 September 2025; 11:24)

Best R&B (111,001) by Dove from United States They gave a bunch of awards during the pre-show. I kept wondering what was going to be left for the actual show. I guess we'll see. Also, I meant to type "I'm so happy for us" in my last post. (Monday 8 September 2025; 01:56) this is a reply to message 110,999

Best R&B (110,999) by Lambi from USA Yay. Thanks for the update in real time. (Monday 8 September 2025; 01:34)

Best R&B (110,997) by Dove from United States Mariah just won her first Moon Man. I'm so happy for ya. (Monday 8 September 2025; 01:24)

Dove (110,952) by Dove from United States Thank you. I like the scenes in the barn better than the scenes on the motorcycle. She looks great but none of it looks natural to me. It's not her, it's the way it was shot. (Friday 5 September 2025; 03:02) this is a reply to message 110,943

Dove (110,943) by Giovanni from USA Sometimes your posts crack me up. Like what you said about the "#Beautiful" video. You need to go watch it again Dove. (Thursday 4 September 2025; 22:14)

When I saw you (110,937) by Dove from United States I just played it and it took me through a time warp to when I was a tween. When I first got Daydream, I mostly listened to it on my Walkman. I used to lay in bed for hours listening to it while reading the lyrics trying to learn them. Or staring at her face because she was the most beautiful girl to me. I wondered what it must feel like to be her. Like, to be that beautiful and be able to sing like that. (Thursday 4 September 2025; 16:45) this is a reply to message 110,936

When I saw you (110,936) by TJ from Norway I've been revisiting Daydream lately, and just have to say her voice is so perfect on that track. Worth a listen. (Thursday 4 September 2025; 15:21)

Christmas music videos (110,914) by Dove from United States I like the idea someone had a few days ago of making a new Christmas video (or two) each year until all the songs have music videos. (Wednesday 3 September 2025; 15:06)

David Guetta and will.i.am (110,913) by Dove from United States I don't know if these people's sound is still considered "cool" but I always enjoyed their songs when they came on. I wouldn't want an entire Mariah album like this but one song wouldn't hurt. (Wednesday 3 September 2025; 14:41)

Kai Cenat's stream (110,910) by Dove from United States I love her here. She's so cute. My inner child connects with her inner child. (Wednesday 3 September 2025; 13:52) this is a reply to message 110,906

Kai Cenat's stream (110,906) by Lighty from China Might be the the most vibrant Mariah I've seen in a very long while. (Wednesday 3 September 2025; 12:57)

Favorite ballads list while we wait (110,872) by Dove from United States I tried to make my own list but it was impossible to choose. She has so many good songs. (Monday 1 September 2025; 02:12) this is a reply to message 110,834

Favorite ballads list while we wait (110,834) by Bobby A from United States I have 15 ballads on a SD card that I will listen to every day until Here For It All is released. Here is my list is: 1. I Don't Wanna Cry 2. Can't Let Go 3. Never Forget You 4. When I Saw 5. My All 6. Against All Odds 7. Never Too Far 8. Through The Rain 9. We Belong Together 10. Love Story 11. Inseparable 12. Camouflage 13. Portrait 14. There Goes My Heart Again 15. I Wish You Well (Sunday 31 August 2025; 02:04)

Year end record? (110,857) by Dove from United States I'm excited because we're getting a new album. Yay. (Sunday 31 August 2025; 16:12) this is a reply to message 110,856

Year end record? (110,856) by TJ from Norway Is it just me, or do people write more messages here in 2025, than the years before? It's sometimes difficult to follow the treads of options. (Sunday 31 August 2025; 15:45)

Mariah Carey medley live on American Idol 2013 (110,836) by Dove from United States I just rewatched it and actually it wasn't as bad as I remembered it. Maybe that's not the one I was thinking of. But my point still stands that the number ones deserve a break. (Sunday 31 August 2025; 03:11)

Super Bowl (110,835) by Dove from United States If it's going to be bad, I don't want it either. But if they're going to put thought and effort into it, it could be huge for her career. Not everyone is invited to play at the Super Bowl. What comes to mind is the medley she did when she was a judge on American Idol. It wasn't good. But those songs are old and she can't sing them anymore. Maybe if she did some of her newer, up-beat songs it would sound better. She looks really good right now, so that's half the battle for a woman in show business. It's only like 15 minutes. I think they can swing it. It would have to be a group effort though. I like these songs. (But for Fantasy just the sample of Genius of Love and the background singers can sing the chorus before it jumps to the next song. That one is only added in for the nostalgia.) Migrate Obsessed Stay Long Love You Money ($*/...) I'll Be Loving You Long Time Fantasy Stay The Night Make It Look Good Boy (I Need You) Dedicated Type: Dangerous Maybe they could get the person who did The Beatles LOVE by Cirque du Soleil show and album to do the mix and blending of the songs. (I just looked it up and George Martin passed in 2016, but maybe someone on par with him. ) If the background music and show sounds good, and it's entertaining to watch, she wouldn't need to dance. Not that anyone expects her to. If it's going to be a lazy effort with the same old slow songs we've already seen a million times, then yeah, Taylor Swift should definitely do it. Taylor Swift is going to end up doing it eventually anyway. (Sunday 31 August 2025; 03:07)

Release and promote Sugar Sweet album version (solo) (110,823) by Dove from United States I'm fine with only male dancers most of be time, but if she did the Super Bowl I'd want ladies too. To fill space. (Saturday 30 August 2025; 11:58) this is a reply to message 110,820

Release and promote Sugar Sweet album version (solo) (110,820) by Rashidi Rahim Rick from Malaysia From the album tracklist I'm sure the song is Mariah's solo version. So now that we have about less than 1 month from the album release, might be good idea to release the album version with a proper video on the beach with her and her male dancers (shirtless) doing choreographer. We all know Mariah doesn't want anymore female dancers. For that VMA performance, Mariah should be doing medley of Type Dangerous/Sugar Sweet/Here For It All. Imagine the climax ending of the performance where Mariah belt the "here for it all" and the music stop to make it like acapella. We don't need her hits medley because it won't sound good. Refer her medley at Billboard Awards 2019. That medley performance should be deleted. She was shaky and crack and nervous. Come on Mariah and Gamma. Do it right this time. This would be her last album and her next album would definitely be in 2035. Most of all here won't be here for it all anymore. (Saturday 30 August 2025; 07:01)

One long month (110,818) by Dove from United States I haven't pre-ordered mine yet. I usually get them the day they're released. (Saturday 30 August 2025; 05:30) this is a reply to message 110,807

One long month (110,807) by T from USA What's worse is there has only been one music video in almost five months. That is so not like Mariah. I hope she wasn't forced into releasing an album before she is ready to really undertake the amount of promotion it takes. I've been seeing that Amazon pre-orders is currently only at 1,200 albums pre-sold in the USA. Add the 5,000 that it will due on iTunes and that is going to be a very low first week debut. A hit song sells an album, and unfortunately she doesn't have that. Word of mouth will be an uphill battle for her, the only hope is the MTV VMA's turns it all around for her. I hope everyone is taking a second out of their day to vote for Mariah and Type Dangerous on MTV.com for the VMA's. That second award could go a long way in helping her get the word out about upcoming music. (Friday 29 August 2025; 19:36)

MC the GOAT (110,817) by Dove from United States I don't blame Stella or Nick for dips in her success but they're not my favorite. I feel like MC was heartbroken because of Nick and after watching the E reality show a few times I don't think Stella was a good influence or had the best intentions for her. I don't think they were the best for her personal life. (Saturday 30 August 2025; 05:29) this is a reply to message 110,806

MC the GOAT (110,806) by Edward from USA I've never liked the constant blame game, it's always someone else's fault but Mariah's. Framing a powerful, intelligent, and successful woman as if she's perpetually helpless is just another way of infantilizing her. Mariah has been steering her career for decades now. An artist in "shackles" wouldn't have been allowed to put out a video openly mocking her label's head like that. Yes, Tommy was controlling and evil at some point, but she also built a thriving career and life beyond him. Mariah has always been an active participant in her own story, it's not as if Nick and Stella just happened to her. Even when she was only 19, she was making choices, and now at 56, with years of experience and every tool at her disposal, she continues to do so. The woman have human walking sticks for heaven sake. All of her life's lessons have shaped her into the woman she is today: an icon, not a victim. So, however this show plays out, good or bad, she's part of it. (Friday 29 August 2025; 18:52)
