YAR CD single (105,707) by T from USA

The single should have had three songs. The Max Martin pop mix that we got. A reimagined David Morales extended dance mix with even bigger vocals from both girls. And a reimagined So So Def urban remix with whisper vocals. This should've been planned for months before the single release, for the nostalgia.

Yes, and remix ends up at #12 on Hot 100 (105,706) by T from USA

The song jumped up from #31 to #12 this coming week. Two spots away from a top ten. Mariah wont be credited. Pop Mariah is no more.

I hope Mariah never releases anything anymore (105,705) by TJ from Norway

I do not agree with you, but then again, it's only opinions. You sit on yours, and I have mine. I have been a fan since 1990, but I don't love every project she has done, but am still here. I call that a real fan, even if you disagree.

Jazz (105,703) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter

Stacey your dream is probably coming true, one of the insider accounts posted that MC will include a jazz style song on MC16, it can be a sample or a cover. Take it with a grain of salt though since these accounts are right 50-50. They said Ariana and MC have a music video and big promo plans including live performance but we didn't get it. But I think it's a safe bet that she will have something jazz inspired otherwise she would randomly jazz it up on stage.

Like I said in an earlier post, I could care less what another person thinks about me. Their opinions do not define what kind of fan I am. I decide that. My 30 years of loyalty decide that.

Taryn Murphy / Make it go away (105,700) by Bobby A from United States

I love this song. I hope MC gets a minor role in a movie or guest starring role in a television show as a singer this year. I miss buying her movie and television roles on DVD. I bought the complete series of Ally Beal just because of that one episode MC appeared in.

Yes. The message is that there's real fans who will be there through thick and thin. And there's fans who are only fans if their fave is doing well and then abandon them if they're not. They're toxic success-stans.

I love this song since I first heard it on the "Wise Girls" movie. I always thought it would suit Mariah too. I wish there was a version sung by MC. Some parts of it reminds me a bit of Mariah.

It's really a dumb argument. I'm not good at cooking for example lol, but I appreciate and recognize a good meal, a good cook and restaurant.

I'm not a movie director, but I'm a cineast.

By the way I have knowledge of music, my grand-dad was an opera singer. He sang the Caruso songs and other classics. But if someone thinks the rapper Latto and Ariana Grande are wonderful than it's fine. We all have our different tastes. That's good, what a boring world it would be if we had all the same. Nowadays it's trendy to only allow the own opinion. Intolerant and boring.

Even though I replied to your post, I was not talking about you specifically, I meant that in a general way and only towards the naysayers. I know you're not one of them, sorry if there's a misunderstanding.

Did Mariah not say on numerous occasions "I owe it all to the fans"? Well that works both ways I'm afraid when you put yourself in the public domain. You have to earn people's respect and give your fans what they want. Do whatever you like in your personal life but when it comes to your fanbase they have invested a lot of time in her as an artist and only want the best from her. I wasn't negative about her latest release with Ariana, I actually praised it. But I appreciate it's not everyone's favourite, I'm not gonna sit here and type your all something else for not like it as I accept everyone has a difference in opinions. From your post you think Mariah should just do mediocre performances from now on, and everyone should just say that's ok it's Mariah she's allowed to, she doesn't care about that stuff. And again that's fine you're entitled to your opinion, but remember a lot of us have an opinion to you and that's ok too. Ps I sang this back to myself just so you know some of us can sing.

But I haven't said I want or expect another Music Box. And I think any of us knows that's not gonna happen. My point is that not everyone will like what she puts out and that's fine. Some people don't like Music Box but that's ok too. We're not all robots that have to agree with everything.

I think the sentiment is that there's good fans and there's toxic fans, regardless of how long anyone's been lurking about.

I hope Mariah never releases anything anymore (105,688) by Webmaster Eric from the Netherlands

"None of you can or will ever be able to sing. Therefore you know nothing about the subject."

So must be able to song to appreciate music. Or must be able to paint to appreciate art.

What a dumb argument.

I hope Mariah never releases anything anymore (105,687) by JC from United States

Your response is the issue though. Opinions are fine but thinking you deserve and are owed something. She doesn't owe you or anyone anything. Not everyone will love her but you guys are something else. Like already we don't know how much longer she will put up with this bs. You don't think she's tired of seeing YouTube videos of lambs comparing vocals from 1990 to recent ones, lambs need to stop being note [censored]. She doesn't care about that stuff. None of you can or will ever be able to sing. Therefore you know nothing about the subject.

Similarity between Big Energy Remix and yes, and? (105,686) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter

Honestly I was thinking the same. In both instances they were together and could have easily done a longer video or at least have a little chat talking about the collaboration and what it means to them. Ariana could have talked about how the collaboration came to be, why they decided on this song. Mariah could have talked about her love for remixes and why she decided to join Ariana on a song that casual listeners wouldn't associate with her usual music. They could have also done small videos of just them playing fun games to promote the video like "who knows who better" or pop culture quizzes (both of them are big pop culture experts). Then they could have released these videos every other day to keep engagement. It's honestly a shame. Mariah posted a small video yesterday promoting singing the chorus. But I'm shocked that Ariana's team dropped the song like it's hot. Like after the first day there was a single mention of the release not even a story. I know she's trying to sell an album but why not simultaneously put spotlight on this song to keep the engagement ?

Similarity between Big Energy Remix and yes, and? (105,685) by Rashidi Rahim Rick from Malaysia

Both songs have snippet promo video but not actual video. Such a waste. In Big Energy Remix, we can see Mariah and Latto in a short promo video wearing pink dresses. Why can't they took that opportunity to just film a video. Nowadays, visual is very important. Now the history repeat itself. Mariah and Ariana were both on set together for promo video of yes, and? wearing black dresses in some hotel but didn't shoot a video. Just a snippet of them hanging around, laughing, lipsynching to the audio of that song. Total waste. We could at least deserve a cheap low budget video of Mariah and Latto in that pink dresses, and Mariah and Ariana in that black dresses. At least.

I get what you're saying Jamie. I'm not talking about the usual difference of opinions. I'm passionate about MC and I always defend her but I know it's coming from a positive place. Passionately tearing her to shreds is quite different. MC and her voice have evolved while some fans are stuck in the past waiting for another Music Box that will never happen. Before you call me delusional for staying positive and supportive, delusional would be not acknowledging that her voice will never be the same as it was in her prime. People change, and we must either accept it or move on, there's no need to diagnose her, then whine and moan every time new music comes out, it's unhealthy for everyone involved. I'm very direct, perhaps too direct for some. That's my humble opinion and I stand by it.

So a fan who is still there after let's say 30 years plus, but doesn't like everything she does, isn't a real fan? Did I read your message wrong? I have to ask.
