Re: Article: Mariah Carey wants to trademark "Queen of Christmas" (100,986) (101,011) by Terna from Nigeria Technically she already owns that title (just check social media during that season) and it's clear to see exactly why, AIWFC does what no other Christmas song does, every year and that is being the most downloaded, streamed and played song, all season, every year without fail. Give her the title already, who better to carry it than Mariah Carey? Moments like this just further solidify that argument. (Sunday 21 August 2022; 19:49)

Mariah and Luis duet (101,010) by MusicfanJ from Germany I really would like to know how this hidden duet with Luis Miguel sounds. Didn't she say that their voices didn't match well together? I remember the Whitney and Enrique Iglesias duet which I liked. At least we have The Rarities. (Sunday 21 August 2022; 19:45)

Re: Article: Mariah Carey wants to trademark "Queen of Christmas" (101,008) (101,009) by T from USA Her voice is shot. Her brand is over. She made bad decisions both health wise and career wise. Usually based on on money. She always said she learned from the Virgin deal and would never base her choices off money again but of course that didn't last. And neither did her career. What she has left is Christmas and that's what we're gonna get. It's too bad that after her second album she didn't continue in the musicianship she was displaying instead of going the super popular pop route. I know we all love Music Box, Daydream and Butterfly but then it kept going into Rainbow and Glitter and the pop indulgence was to great for her artistry. She should've left that kind of music to the Spice Girls and Britney Spears. Even if she would've completely left after #1's and came back with TEOM in 2005 it would've been better. Roc Nation did their best with little Mariah effort to restore her back a little but what does she do? Fire them after Caution under performs. At least with them we got new music, good music.

Re: Article: Mariah Carey wants to trademark "Queen of Christmas" (101,003) (101,008) by Sasha from Nomansland Her voice is shot for good that's why she doesn't record anything new and I highly doubt she would ever release anything else and I'm fine with it and so are my ears. If she wasn't so egotic she could have leave her singing career to rest few years ago and start write and produce others artists. This could have bring her career to another level.

Re: Article: Mariah Carey wants to trademark "Queen of Christmas" (101,006) (101,007) by T from USA No money in jazz. And if she's not creative anymore than there is literally zero chance in forming a band and making an album. Sounded like the Butterfly Lounge was the beginning of getting back to the music but obviously they realized it wasn't going to sell so it will never see the light of day.

Re: Article: Mariah Carey wants to trademark "Queen of Christmas" (101,004) (101,006) by MusicfanJ from Germany Well, that's something I would like to know too. Hard to believe it's the same woman. Fame and money is one thing, but I prefer the Mariah who's love for music and artistry is stronger than for money. To "milk the cow called Christmas" gets boring. Why not make new music with real musicians and a band? If even Lady Gaga could do a Jazz album why not MC? Or something new, but please no more Christmas albums. 5 albums/editions with Christmas (The Star soundtrack and animated movie included) are enough. (Sunday 21 August 2022; 12:19)

Re: Article: Mariah Carey wants to trademark "Queen of Christmas" (101,004) (101,005) by TheWind from England She's someone who doesn't make or sell records like she used to, has a certain lifestyle, and thus needs to find other revenue streams to guarantee her income. Whilst it is unsavoury at times, we should probably cut her some slack. We all need to make some money, so there's no point in pretending it doesn't matter. (Sunday 21 August 2022; 11:22)

Re: Article: Mariah Carey wants to trademark "Queen of Christmas" (101,003) (101,004) by Bill from the UK I do wonder if it is the same girl that used to write brilliant songs in the woodshop with Ben Margulies, that signed the contract to promote and endorse McDonalds.

Re: Article: Mariah Carey wants to trademark "Queen of Christmas" (100,995) (101,003) by T from USA When Mariah started she had a love for music but she also knew she had the talent to become rich. Now it feels like the love for music has taken the back seat to her love of money. There's been a few examples along the way. The signing the Virgin record deal which ended in disaster. Then the $18 million American Idol disaster. Now it looks like she will only do Christmas because it's the only place she can make money now. What happened to that 17 year old with the passion to make music? I don't think LA Reid will be back but it seems like she has some kind of deal with RCA as the last two collaborations were through the label. (Sunday 21 August 2022; 03:18)

Re: Article: Mariah Carey wants to trademark "Queen of Christmas" (101,001) (101,002) by Bobby A from United States It just we all have years of experience knowing what works best for MC. True Lambs know when something isn't in MC's best interest. We want the old MC back who made sound logical business decisions. (Saturday 20 August 2022; 13:53)

Re: Article: Mariah Carey wants to trademark "Queen of Christmas" (101,000) (101,001) by Lady B from USA I didn't realize so many people here were IP lawyers. (Saturday 20 August 2022; 08:49)

Re: Article: Mariah Carey wants to trademark "Queen of Christmas" (100,998) (101,000) by Edward from USA Someone must've said her name three times. (Friday 19 August 2022; 13:38)

Re: Article: Mariah Carey wants to trademark "Queen of Christmas" (100,996) (100,999) by MusicfanJ from Germany It really could be an idea of Stella back then. That were dark times for fans/lambs. I hope I never hear something from those people again. (Friday 19 August 2022; 09:57)

Re: Article: Mariah Carey wants to trademark "Queen of Christmas" (100,992) (100,998) by Stacey from USA I bet it was Stella's idea. (Friday 19 August 2022; 08:44)

Re: Article: Mariah Carey wants to trademark "Queen of Christmas" (100,995) (100,997) by Norman from USA I read that it's only for merchandise and not for any other reason. So Ms. Love could still call herself that, just not on official merch. It's a distinction, but it could have been avoided all together. (Friday 19 August 2022; 05:13)

Re: Article: Mariah Carey wants to trademark "Queen of Christmas" (100,995) (100,996) by Randy from USA When I saw this, my first thought was is Stella back? "My job is to make Mariah money." (Friday 19 August 2022; 04:48)

Re: Article: Mariah Carey wants to trademark "Queen of Christmas" (100,992) (100,995) by Bobby A from United States I am really feeling that MC has really given up on ever having a pop hit again. She is more focused on Christmas music and merchandise during the Christmas season. This is when she makes most of her money nowadays. I just wish L.A. Reid would come back in the picture and give her some direction. I just put the puzzle pieces together about the reason why MC wants to trademark the Queen of Christmas. She needs this trademark distinction to promote the release of The Christmas Princess hitting bookshelves on November 1st and other Christmas merchandise dropping this year.

Re: Article: Mariah Carey wants to trademark "Queen of Christmas" (100,993) (100,994) by MusicfanJ from Germany Yes, is it even true or another rumour? Why not trademark "diva"? Just kidding. How about new music? Or Rarities 2? I would love a surprise in autumn. (Thursday 18 August 2022; 20:41)

Re: Article: Mariah Carey wants to trademark "Queen of Christmas" (100,986) (100,993) by Lee from USA It's funny that we haven't heard anything from Mariah herself. (Thursday 18 August 2022; 20:27)

Re: Article: Mariah Carey wants to trademark "Queen of Christmas" (100,991) (100,992) by Edward from USA Mariah has been hailed as "The Queen of Christmas" for nearly a decade now and she's always been nonchalant about it. This is a ridiculous move as if she were desperate for coins. The dinosaur who advised her about it should be fired. (Thursday 18 August 2022; 17:34)

Re: Article: Mariah Carey wants to trademark "Queen of Christmas" (100,990) (100,991) by Bobby A from United States MC's trademark application is going to be denied because of this one statement she made in 2017 - "The only queen of Christmas is Mary, Jesus' mother." (Thursday 18 August 2022; 14:05)

Re: Article: Mariah Carey wants to trademark "Queen of Christmas" (100,988) (100,990) by Steve from USA She may want the title simply so people can't use her likeness for merch, which happened a few years back. There was a very Mariah looking ornament that someone created a few years back, that said "All I Want For Christmas Is You" on it. It looked like it could have been official, but it was not. So, the trademark could prevent that, I imagine. (Thursday 18 August 2022; 13:55)

Re: Article: Mariah Carey wants to trademark "Queen of Christmas" (100,988) (100,989) by Norman from USA I honestly don't understand the need for this either. Whenever someone calls her that during an interview, she refuses to take the title. Now someone in her team sold her on the trademark idea? It's not something she needs or that helps her brand in any way. I couldn't care less about this endeavor. Her should focus on nailing down her brand and working to elevate it. Mariah needs some new blood on her team - people with vision and purpose. All that said, I don't know who this Chan lady is. I googled her and still couldn't make sense out of it. This is probably the most notoriety she's ever had/is likely to ever get. And Ms. Love - well, bless her. She has a right to make her coins off of whatever she can. Citing David Letterman as reference doesn't help her in any way, however. It's all subjective. Nobody puts Christmas on the map like Mariah. Nobody. For better or worse. Whether it's trademaked or not, it's just the truth. (Thursday 18 August 2022; 07:36)

Re: Article: Mariah Carey wants to trademark "Queen of Christmas" (100,986) (100,988) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway This is a battle I don't understand why Mariah wants to take. Why trademark it? Everybody is using it when referring to Mariah anyway. Mariah, choose your battles. (Wednesday 17 August 2022; 12:00)

Re: New remix cd (100,985) (100,987) by Bobby A from United States Lol. I understand. (Tuesday 16 August 2022; 17:51)
