About Webmaster Eric from the Netherlands: Mariah fan since 1993.

Article: The making of Mariah Carey (110,147) by Webmaster Eric from the Netherlands This is the kind of looks I want to see from Mariah. I love it. (Tuesday 29 July 2025; 02:12)

Jimmy Kimmel (110,040) by Webmaster Eric from the Netherlands I don't want to be rude, but with her breasts popping out she looked like a hooker. (Friday 25 July 2025; 13:04) this is a reply to message 110,035

Jimmy Kimmel (110,035) by Jamie from UK I didn't feel Mariah was looking her best on Jimmy Kimmel, she looked a bit cheap and not glamorous. Just my opinion. I've seen her looking better. I think it was the hair and earrings made her look a bit street. (Friday 25 July 2025; 11:50)

Webmaster request (109,991) by Webmaster Eric from the Netherlands "Folks just need to stop feeling like it's their duty to set others straight, to reprimand." I don't think this is a diss, but something you keep doing over and over again. Maybe you should stop doing this and everybody will be happy and move on.

Webmaster request (109,990) by Lambi from USA I'm glad you noticed. There's a reason for that insult. "Folks just need to stop feeling like it's their duty to set others straight, to reprimand" is direct hit on me from Stacey. Then she pretends to be well-meaning right after the diss. The one you're defending actually engages on pretending to be a saint, so it turns out you actually got fooled. (Thursday 24 July 2025; 11:14)

Vision of Love (109,732) by Webmaster Eric from the Netherlands Are you sure? According to several sources, Vision of Love was part of the original demo tape. (Monday 14 July 2025; 16:31) this is a reply to message 109,731

Unpopular opinions (109,731) by Bill from the UK Vision of Love was written after she signed to CBS in celebration of that momentous event. It was a thank you to the good Lord above for getting her to that place. So it didn't exist at the point Clive was sniffing around. (Monday 14 July 2025; 16:24)

Unpopular opinions (109,668) by Webmaster Eric from the Netherlands I'm glad Did I Do That gets the love it deserves. It's the best song on Rainbow and Rainbow is my favorite album. My all time favorite song is Everything Fades Away, second is Do You Think of Me. (Thursday 10 July 2025; 14:24) this is a reply to message 109,667

Unpopular opinions (109,667) by Dove from United States 1.) Boy (I need you) has grown on me over the years. 2.) I'm not super optimistic about MC16 being a success. (But I'm pretty sure I'll personally enjoy it.) 3.) I think she should drop Hero and We Belong Together from performances like the Summertime Ball and instead do album tracks that should have been hits. 4.) I know Touch My Body is super popular but I don't really like it. My young coworker (born in '99) asked me to make her a MC playlist. A few months later she came back and reported she only liked Fantasy, Honey, and Touch my Body. 5.) I really like Did I Do That? I think it's catchy and kinda funny. (Thursday 10 July 2025; 13:54)

Fantasy vs. Honey (109,636) by Webmaster Eric from the Netherlands According to Wikipedia, Fantasy was a much bigger hit. It is certified 6x Platinum, while Honey is only certified 2x Platinum. Also sales in other countries were much much higher for Fantasy. (Saturday 5 July 2025; 19:26) this is a reply to message 109,635

Fantasy vs. Honey (109,635) by Bobby A from United States Which one was a bigger radio and sales hit? I ask the question because I feel Fantasy was because it was the first time a sample made an original song like Genius of Love popular among younger listeners in 1995. Secondly, Nostradomus on X posted today that the second single is a pop/club combination with traces of hip hop and funk. Isn't that what Fantasy was for Daydream? (Saturday 5 July 2025; 19:14)

I love Beauty School Drop Out (109,610) by Webmaster Eric from the Netherlands There is already a song on the soundtrack of Grease with that title. (Friday 4 July 2025; 16:47) this is a reply to message 109,609

I love Beauty School Drop Out (109,609) by Dove from United States I know you were joking, but I love Beauty School Drop Out as an album title. (Friday 4 July 2025; 16:44)

Unboxing and review of TEOM (109,093) by Webmaster Eric from the Netherlands You can watch an unboxing and review of the 20th anniversary editions of Mariah Carey's The Emancipation Of Mimi here. (Friday 6 June 2025; 12:06)

One Heart, One Voice (108,863) by Webmaster Eric from the Netherlands I don't think Walter sings, so I have no idea if their voices blend in together well. (Monday 26 May 2025; 09:49) this is a reply to message 108,862

One Heart, One Voice (108,862) by Edward from USA "One Heart, One Voice" will be released on June 27. What do guys think it will be like? Could Walter and Mariah bring their magic back with a decent well written song? Will their voices blend in together well? Thoughts. (Monday 26 May 2025; 03:37)

New Mariah album (108,719) by Webmaster Eric from the Netherlands "The world wants a new Mariah Carey album right now." Why do you think that? I hear or read that nowhere. The world thinks Mariah is only relevant during Christmas. (Wednesday 14 May 2025; 10:08) this is a reply to message 108,717

Shenzhen concert (108,717) by Bobby A from United States MC should just drop MC16 without a first single. Just drop the album after an announcement 10 minutes before midnight. Let social media drive digital sales for the two weeks and then begin a normal Mariah promotional blitz. It would work because the world wants a new Mariah Carey album right now. (Wednesday 14 May 2025; 05:04)

Did I click on the JLo message board? (108,389) by Webmaster Eric from the Netherlands Very pathetic to insult other fans on this messageboard, just because you don't agree with their views. Me too misses the old, down to earth Mariah. So all these insults are also directed at me. (Friday 21 March 2025; 02:52) this is a reply to message 108,386

Did I click on the JLo message board? (108,386) by Tonish from Australia Wow, I really could not believe what I was reading in these messages on this message board. [censored] Mariah fans picking Mariah apart with a fine tooth comb, trying to compare her to what she was in the 90's, trying to make Mariah the image you want her to be or think what she should be. [censored] I find it really sad that you feel that Mariah has to be perfect [censored] or that her speech wasn't as good as you wanted it to be. Mariah has accomplished more in her life than 99.9% of people on this planet, she doesn't need to satisfy all your [censored] issues as well. I remember coming to this message board all the time and remember how good and fun it was to chat with the fans and checking out the discography (I see that's gone), Eric (if you still run this site) what happened? [censored] And before you [censored] fans come at me with "I'm just being honest and saying what I think", yeah well sometimes you're unwanted opinion just makes you look like a [censored]. And also no, don't try give me that "I've been a fan since" rubbish either, before you consider yourself a fan, google what the word fanatic means. [censored] (Friday 21 March 2025; 01:42)

Last Christmas (107,872) by Webmaster Eric from the Netherlands 100,000 million monthly Spotify listeners? That's 100 billion listeners. Exaggeration is an art. (Thursday 26 December 2024; 19:49) this is a reply to message 107,871

Last Christmas (107,871) by Bobby A from United States There is no need to worry about Brenda every gaining more Spotify listeners. MC just broke another Spotify record today. MC becomes the first black female artist in history to have 100,000 million monthly Spotify listeners. I am sure Fantasy is #2 behind AIWFCIY. There has been no stopping MC during the last quarter of the year. (Thursday 26 December 2024; 19:41)

All Alone In Love (D++ Edit) // Neo Soul Vibes (107,300) by Webmaster Eric from the Netherlands I don't like it at all, in fact I hate it. I find the drums irritating. The original is perfect, why change it? (Monday 2 September 2024; 21:47) this is a reply to message 107,296

All Alone In Love (D++ Edit) // Neo Soul Vibes (107,296) by 123 from USA Speaking of remixes RA, I loved this updated production to one of my favorites from her debut. I wish she would let other artists cover her album cuts/non number 1s. She has so many hidden gems. (Monday 2 September 2024; 01:51)

The girl who lipped wolf (107,101) by Bobby A from United States I wonder if MC and Celine both are in the top ten for top grossing Vegas residencies. (Sunday 4 August 2024; 19:01)

Election (106,951) by Webmaster Eric from the Netherlands I can't understand why someone would like to have a liar, a convicted criminal and a sex-addict as their president. (Thursday 25 July 2024; 17:42) this is a reply to message 106,950

Election (106,950) by RL from USA Thank you. I have dealt with a lot of hate from people who are anti-Trump and just dismiss me as being uneducated and not knowing any better. Working in health care, I actually did better on my 401K, and took home more money with far less inflation than under the current administration. So it's nice to know that among the MC community there is still diversity of thought, and other ideas are still respected. (Thursday 25 July 2024; 17:25)

Rumoured lead singles (106,918) by Webmaster Eric from the Netherlands "Sweetheart" was commercially released in the Netherlands and several other European countries. (Sunday 21 July 2024; 03:05) this is a reply to message 106,917

Rumoured lead singles (106,917) by BFF from United States "Sweetheart" was supposed to be the lead single or a single from #1s, but it was cancelled because Sony wanted Mariah to prioritize "When You Believe". They manufactured CD singles for "Sweetheart" but ended up giving them away with copies of #1s after it was cancelled. (Saturday 20 July 2024; 23:38)

Daniel Bedingfield (106,321) by Webmaster Eric from the Netherlands You can read more about this duet here. (Wednesday 1 May 2024; 23:01) this is a reply to message 106,320

Daniel Bedingfield (106,320) by jaker20 from US That is so random, but I'm here for it. Maybe it's common knowledge to some but I personally didn't know they even got together at one point in the past. (Wednesday 1 May 2024; 22:13)

Happy birthday (106,039) by Webmaster Eric from the Netherlands Happy birthday Mariah. I hope you have a wonderful day with the ones you love. (Wednesday 27 March 2024; 00:39)

New layout (105,919) by Webmaster Eric from the Netherlands The discography is still up and running. But because it is not optimized for mobile phones, you can only see it on computers. (Friday 8 March 2024; 22:25) this is a reply to message 105,918

New layout (105,918) by Bill from the UK Is the discography not viewable on phones? If you've retired it, would you consider leaving it up as an archive somewhere? It was a gargantuan effort and somewhere I often visited, it'd be a shame if it went. (Friday 8 March 2024; 22:14)

New layout (105,914) by Webmaster Eric from the Netherlands The old website had two versions: one for computers and one for mobile phones. The new website only has one version. Did you try going to the url www.mcarchives.com on your phone? (Friday 8 March 2024; 20:34) this is a reply to message 105,910

New layout (105,910) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Dumb question for Eric, is it just me or this isn't working from mobile browsers? I can open it on my laptop but when I try from my phone it gives me the same error I was talking about earlier. Earlier too when I wrote the post I tried accessing from my laptop after failing from the phone and I thought possibly the transition is causing delays but I still can't access from phone. (Friday 8 March 2024; 20:23)

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. (Friday 23 February 2024; 16:11) this is a reply to message 105,687

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. (Friday 23 February 2024; 16:07)

This is what we asked for (105,643) by Webmaster Eric from the Netherlands I don't understand your obsession. Do you really expect us to spend loads of money (which all goes to Ariana) just to get the remix in the top 10 of Billboard? (Wednesday 21 February 2024; 14:50) this is a reply to message 105,641

This is what we asked for (105,641) by T from USA I remember coming to this board for years with people asking for an up tempo Mariah pop song with big vocals. Even Max Martin produced. Some even suggested the impossible, that she's on a track with Ariana Grande. Now we have exactly what everyone has asked for and the success it could find going into the top 10 would be huge. Streaming is easy. Buying is too but this is the day to do it. I've made it easy with two links for us here. Ariana's website and Amazon's new release page. (Wednesday 21 February 2024; 13:47)

Andrew (105,011) by Webmaster Eric from the Netherlands You only saw the "nice" messages. I deleted most of the ones with insults. (Friday 19 January 2024; 20:45) this is a reply to message 105,008

Andrew (105,008) by Zachariah from Croatia Didn't see that coming, I must admit. I noticed that he has strong opinions but so far, didn't see any name calling in terms of strong insults. Or I missed it. Anyhow, as Mimi L. said, we are all Mariah fans who think strongly about her but hate speech - a no no. (Friday 19 January 2024; 15:25)

Andrew (105,006) by Webmaster Eric from the Netherlands I just want to let you know that Andrew has been banned again. His last words were: "Eric is a prick. Mimi L is a yappie fucking dog. Fuck you, cunts." I think there is clearly something wrong with this guy. (Friday 19 January 2024; 14:45)
