Haven't heard the cd and probably won't. I lost interest in Mariah years ago. She does have a very good voice, but I just can't seem to take her seriously anymore. She's such a plastic looking bimbo and she seems so weak and needy. I prefer to listen to strong women like Mary J, Lauryn and Melissa Etheridge....

Well she did kinda turn sum people out, but the real fans are the people who still support her, the people who have been there since 1990, so forget all them 'casual' people, its the same with Prince. We stook by him when he released shit and just took the blows. Everyone else wasnt diggin him anymore but us REAL fams. Same way I feel about Mariah.


Are u crazy, Whitney album was way better. Also where's Janet Jackson. Her last album sucked and I am sure MIMI sounds better.


If someone else says something about the album without hearing it ima SCREAM!

Now on the Janet tip...hmmm....they are 2 very different albums but sorry Janet...Mriah's album had less filler, plus there were more artistic and vocally challenging material Janet wouldnt know how to handle. Yet on Janet there was some strong dance material Mariah wouldnt know what 2 do with.

Yep, I hear what you're saying. If you like her and her music then stick with her. To be honest, I never lost interest in Prince during the 90's. I thought the whole symbol schtick was hilarious and I actually like most of his 90's cd's (excluding NPS wink ) If the music moves you and makes you feel good, then stay loyal!

Yeah man highfive
I was kinda embarrassed when P would be seen all skinny with red lipstick and heavy eyelash and female clothing licking lolly's and stuff. I felt like they were looking at my cousin or something. Same love I feel 4 Michael and Janet.

Why does it matter what she looks like? As long as the music is good, I could care less what the music artist looked like.

nod Unfortunately, 99% of the public would rather tear somebody apart because of their looks.

I think "We Belong Together" is one of the best things on there. Maybe it'll grow on you.

It's not that I think it's terrible. Just one of those tracks that I'd rather not listen to because there's better material on there.

And people wonder why music sucks now adays. They are choosing singers based on looks not talent.

Get over it.Ok? Paisley is entitled to like whatever music artist he wants. So mind your own business. I know you are a Mariah hater.


ALSO.. THE ALBUM IS BORING.. AND YEAH... ONLY OLDER PEOPLE WOULD LIKE THE ALBUM.. IF I BOUGHT THE ALBUM IT WOULD BE FOR ITS COVER... NOT THE QUALITY OF THE MUSIC... AND THERE ARE TWO SETS OF SONGS THAT SOUND THE SAME... I ENJOY GOOD QUALITY MUSIC.. THE FIRST TIME I HEARD "SIGNS BY SNOOP DOGG AND JUSTIN... I KNEW IT WAS GOING TO BE A HIT AND I LOVED IT... THOSE SONGS ON MARIAH'S ALBUM.. ARE JUST NOT THAT GREAT.. IF SHE RELEASED THEM THEY WOULDNT EVEN HIT THE TOP 20... EXCEPT FOR "ITS LIKE THAT AND 'WE BELONG TOGETHER" THOSE ARE THE TWO SONGS THAT MAKE THE ALBUM... THE BEST SONGS ON THE ALBUM


Actually the album is really good, in my opinion. Thats your opinion that you don't like it. Not everyone elses ok? I think that it's good that she does somethin different with her albums because people would just get sick of her music just like that did with Janet's oversexed albums.

Total Alisa....what age ru?? (ur arguments r SO pathetic!)


Or more importantly..ru listenin 2 the same album we r listenin 2?

Out of all the tracks on Mimi, 'Its like that' is the weakest! (IMO)

'We Belong 2gether' will b a big hit, but there r a LOTS of potential smashes on this album!

Im really happy for Mariah right now!

Every1 disses her 4 sheer sport, but wen the numbers cum in 4 this week every MC fan Will b rightfully vindicated! biggrin

Go to eBay and buy the 3-track Euro promo CD with:

1. Main
2. No Rap
3. No Fatman Scoop

versions

Sprung is a UK/Aussie/Japanese bonus track, while Secret Love is a Japanese bonus track only.

Everyone has their own opinion and taste of music... i just really like dance music.... and i was hoping for an album like rainbow... not sounding like rainbow...but having many dance songs... thats why i became a janet fan because she produce such great dance music... there are people who prefer slow songs... but after awhile it gets boring...

I don't believe we're allowed to post actual mp3 links here, but I believe we can post the web links which contain those mp3s. Anyway, Mariah's UK bonus single "Sprung" can be found here:

http://rapidshare.de/file...g.mp3.html

and her Japan bouns single "Secret Love" can be found at this web address:

There was more immature babbling negative about the record not actually naming songs and just bad mouthing her period more than the artistics on it so shrug to the negative replies because when I played it at work, people were having me replay songs and saying that she succeeded with trying out new ways of singing.


Like I said the album is hotter than anything alot of female artists have put out this year headbang Much better than Ashanit's, J.Lo's, Ciara's. Whitney's, Madonna's last albums..she peaked them.


I disagree, I think Faith Evans & Tweets new albums are better..IMO

I brought "Mimi" on Tuesday and I have to tell you I really like this CD. I didn't think I'd like it as much as I do. Even the weak songs are fun to listen to. I haven't listened to a Mariah CD like this since "Butterfly". What makes me so happy with it is that she's FINALLY singing again and not whispering as much as she was between 1999 and 2002. When I heard "We Belong Together", I knew I had to check it out and I'm glad I did. I can call myself a Mariah Carey fan again. biggrin
I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that

I haven't liked a Mariah CD like this since Butterfly. I can listen to it all the way through, no skipping whatsoever. Even the less-than-stellar songs like To The Floor are still groovable.

Joy Ride is exquisite and I'm so glad she went back to the gospel flavor on Fly Like A Bird. It is so not corny like the title suggests. Just when that song is truly taking off it just stops leaving me to wonder the potential of it as a remix or live performance. Hearing a little taste of her do Make It Happen this morning on GMA was serious reminder of what she can do with a choir.
[Edited 4/12/05 10:32am]


imo, Butterfly was her last solid album too. It was before the attack of Snoop and Ja Rule giggle I haven't listened to Mimi yet, and to be honest I'm not in a rush. Had it been years ago, I would've been dying to hear it. I keep reading reviews of Mariah soundin' too much like Beyonce and Jessica Simpson (or pretty much anyone but herself from the 90's, her vocals aren't as strong as they used to be) and constantly reminding everyone of her materialistic things....it's gettin' pretty old. But, I guess I'll have to see for myself and stop listening to the critics.

Best tracks off this album.
Mine Again
Stay The Night
Circles
Get Your Number
It's Like That
Say Something


I think Mariah's so called time off helped her regroup herself. lol This is a really good album. I think it has a bit of an old school feel. Especially "Mine Again"...One of her best tracks in years.
Best line in "It's Like That": "them chickens is ash and I'm lotion" falloff The album tends to plateau towards the end. But still listenable. I give it starstarstar & 1/2! thumbs up! wink

Tweet's album was cool, but not many memorable track on it. Faith album I would put up against Mariah's though, another strong record this month.
