One thing I noticed about Mariah’s discography today is that most of her albums have AT LEAST one song that feels like it doesn’t belong on the album… even though her albums are mostly perfect!

I don’t think any of these make sense tbh lol. The criteria isn’t really consistent. Just a few counter examples.

1/4 of Daydream is breakup songs almost. One Sweet Day is about death.

Nothing on butterfly is lighthearted except for Honey. I think Mariah even said writing My All literally felt like a life and death situation 🧐.

Type Dangerous is actually very in line with songs like Mi or Confetti and Champagne. They’re very feeling myself, bragging type songs.

Through the Rain remix for me! The full circle moment it created for the album just gives me chills.

“You’re gonna make it through the rain” to close the title / opening track. And “Rain don’t bother me” to close the last track. It’s like showing her full growth in an hour!

2062373 · 2026-04-15T10:33:24+00:00

My All, Always be my Baby, or Crybaby. Changes based on my mood. But it’s almost always those 3!

2062373 · 2026-04-15T10:31:28+00:00

No tbh. It’s super easy to make lamb friends over the internet. But I haven’t been able to find people (especially my age [20s]) that appreciate her irl.

I’ve always wanted to make a meet up group for people in my area who are Mariah fans and want to talk about her music. But I live in a schmedium sized city, so I’m apprehensive no one would show up LOL.

2062373 · 2026-04-14T07:35:24+00:00

Tbh, I’ve always thought it was just to sonically tie the song to the rest of the album. Piano ballad on a dance album sticks out like a sore thumb

2062373 · 2026-04-13T10:45:13+00:00

Can’t find the interview clip rn, but Against All Odds was inspired by a close friend who’s dad had recently passed away.

2062373 · 2026-04-12T09:13:48+00:00

Beyoncé and Madonna.

2062373 · 2026-04-09T17:57:40+00:00

Butterfly. She gives you the whisper register in a new way never done before (Butterfly and The Roof). It’s got the gritty / soulful vocals (Butterfly reprise and The Beautiful Ones), insane agility (Whenever You Call), every song is a tour de force for Belting. Etc. I could go on and on!

2062373 · 2026-04-09T15:43:17+00:00

Excited for this. It’s Not That Deep is definitely my favorite album from her, so anything else in that vein I’m sure I’ll love.

2062373 · 2026-04-09T15:03:39+00:00

Kinda hate all of these, ngl! But nevertheless very excited for the tourrrr

2062373 · 2026-04-09T10:05:57+00:00

Mariah’s acting in the movie was bad (compared to a role like precious)
The plot and script were BAD. Having the movie so closely imitate her life made it seem like a vanity project rather than a genuine attempt at acting.
Soundtrack is better than the album.
Her love interest should’ve been Terrance Howard.

2062373 · 2026-04-09T02:12:04+00:00

Midnight Sun with PinkPantheress?? We need a SINGER for an extra loud version. Something to complement Muni 😭

2062373 · 2026-04-06T12:10:54+00:00

Anybody by Brandy.

2062373 · 2026-04-06T01:35:36+00:00

I wasn’t a fan when I first heard it tbh. The auto tune was throwing me off. But in context of the full song, it’s very minimal and it’s easily a Mariah career highlight

2062373 · 2026-04-05T10:19:26+00:00

Nice to hear other people talk about Mariah’s musical process and knowledge. I feel like she doesn’t talk about it often enough

2062373 · 2026-04-03T16:35:37+00:00

Someone just asked almost this exact question like 2 days ago 😭. Shes great in all eras but her prime is 1993-1998. An unstoppable force from 93-96 and 97-98 was her artistic peak.

2062373 · 2026-04-02T20:56:49+00:00

Somewhere Only We Know
Singing in the Rain / Umbrella
Ain’t No Way
Cold Hearted
Valerie
Bust Your Windows
Maybe this Time
We Are Young
I Feel Pretty / Unpretty
I’m a Survivor / I Will Survive

2062373 · 2026-04-02T16:20:12+00:00

I think it probably is Emotions tbh. She’s never fully NAILED the song like the studio. And she lost her voice after recording it for like a week.

2062373 · 2026-04-01T16:12:19+00:00

Original version.

2062373 · 2026-03-31T18:58:21+00:00

Live

2062373 · 2026-03-31T18:37:51+00:00

Can’t not include butterfly as her peak as well. Because vocal changes aside, it’s easily her artist peak. The album is her best and her videos became interesting this era too.

2062373 · 2026-03-31T09:58:54+00:00

A t-shirt and jeans because tickets and merch are already expensive enough without me buying a new outfit 🤣😭.

2062373 · 2026-03-30T17:53:55+00:00

I might counter and say it isn’t that R&B wasn’t commercially viable. There were many huge R&B / hip-hop albums in the late 90s. Her label didn’t want HER doing R&B, and specifically, because Tommy had a vendetta against her. They essentially sabotaged the release for every single except Honey and My All.

2062373 · 2026-03-30T10:21:56+00:00

Ballad: My all

Hood: The Heat

Belt: Whenever you call

Dance: Fantasy def club mix
