Can't Let Go (113,414) by tadatorao from japan

Yes I know the whoe snafu.

I even bought the physical single in real time back then at a brick and mortar store. I just always lament that I'll Be There, being neither self-penned nor studio-made, took the 6th No.1 spot. In my mind and my playlist, Can't Let Go instead of I'll Be there will always belong to the #1 album. How great it would have been if she could claim all her #1's are written by herself.

Can't Let Go (113,405) by tadatorao from japan

I wish it was. For 34 years it has saddened me that it stalled at number two. I ain't asking much, just one week was enough. Personally I always think I'll Be There has stolen the thunder from Can't Let Go.

All I want for Christmas is you (107,522) by tadatorao from japan

Sony Music Japan is going to release "All I Want For Chirstmas Is You - 30th Anniversary Edition" on 27 November. The CD is packed in 7" digipak, comes with 2 Christmas cards, and is manufactured in Bluspec CD2 format. Most importantly it includes the highly sought-after "Miss You Most (At Christmas Time) - Video Version". I have been waiting for this for literally 30 years.

Re: Billboard magazine cover (99,816) (99,819) by tadatorao from japan

True the cover is just horrible. The shape of face is wrong and the eyes are way too close. Search Yam Karkai and you will see that the illustrator is just illustrating herself. That is a typical sign of self-important artists. Indeed all of her portraits look the same, just digitally duplicated.

Re: Favourite ending (99,766) (99,772) by tadatorao from japan

We Belong Together seems like an obvious choice. The ending immediately urges one to listen to the song from the beginning all over again. Not to mention the MTV Movie Awards live, albeit pre-recorded. Personally I like Heartbreaker with the stripping down harmonization towards the end, almost like a reverse of the building up at the song's beginning. Very satisfying.

Re: Butterfly EPs and recap (95,250) (95,254) by tadatorao from japan

Obviously Bill should've been the one replacing Stella as MC's manager.

Re: Rarities this Friday #MC30 (94,976) (94,980) by tadatorao from japan

Apart from the curly hair, she is wearing a dress resembling the one on her debut album to sing VOL at GMA. She's on fire in this era.

Re: Rarities this Friday #MC30 (94,956) (94,975) by tadatorao from japan

Hi Bill, according to Sony Japan, the demo tape is really included in The Rarities. Not sure to what extend but we are finally going to listen to and own some pre-debut materials. Our collection is going to be so complete.

Re: Rarities album (94,971) (94,973) by tadatorao from japan

Sony Music Japan just announced that there will be a 3 discs edition of physical release. Two CDs plus a high resolution Blu-ray of the Tokyo Dome concert. So our dream does come true.

Re: Merry Christmas / Daydream remix EPs (94,860) (94,868) by tadatorao from japan

Hey Bill, not sure if it counts but there is an edit version of Looking In which is available on the compilation album Playlist. There is an extra humming at the beginning of the song. As a completionist myself I understnad these minute details are important to us.

Always appreciate your posts.

1111 (85,798) by tadatorao from japan

Just watched Mariah's performance in 1111 Singles' Day Gala. She sang Emotions and Hero. After the performance, the host asked her what she would like to get if she shopped online in China. She said she would like to get a toy panda for her twins, or a real one if possible. Diva as always.

Re: #marchforwhat? (81,275) (81,276) by tadatorao from japan

I was just dedicating a song to the heroic webmaster. There is nothing to get right as there is nothing wrong in the first place. Yeah Mariah sang it live that way but it doesn't mean I cannot dedicate it personally to webmaster.

Webmaster, this song is for you: Hero.

Re: Our minds work differently (81,095) (81,102) by tadatorao from japan

Ridiculous country? Funny how you said that while Mariah debuted with a music company all owned by Sony. Without this ridiculous country you won't be even speaking here. But if a debate is too intimidating I have something much safer for you it's called karaoke. So sing along. "In another land they still believe color grants (you sing this word)."

Re: Our minds work differently (81,081) (81,086) by tadatorao from japan

Bullying? Tasted your own medicine finally? See who can't take a joke now. And bored of me? Sounds like things said by someone losing an argument. To quote your own words you once said to me: "Lighten up." "Go back to bed, it's safer there."

Re: Our minds work differently (81,075) (81,076) by tadatorao from japan

No one assumes you are gay or straight [because] no one really cares. But we do assume you think using 50 cent words make ones sound smarter and tilting heads by 45 degree makes one looks better.

Re: Our minds work differently (81,028) (81,033) by tadatorao from japan

Got you all fired up? I was like, why's he so obsessed with me.

Re: Our minds work differently (81,022) (81,025) by tadatorao from japan

Wow first bullying now race discrimination. No wonder Mariah has so much inspiration to write message songs for her lambs.

Re: Our minds work differently (81,013) (81,017) by tadatorao from japan

Let's see how google define bullying: use superior strength (knowledge of this message board) or influence (familiarization with other members) to intimidate someone (newcomer), typically to force them to do something (answering random questions). Let's see how google define joking: talk humorously (nil).

Ms Carey please release some new music fast. Your herd of lambs have nothing to do and are plucking one another's wool.
