Yeah, regarding surgery. Just dont see whats wrong with what God gave people (and no Iam not uber religious LOL). Heck, Iam an ugly fucker (seriously), but just gotta deal with shit and move on.

Anyway, Mariah is plastic and acts like an excitable 12 year old, and even if she didn't have those negative points, I'd still rather do Jennifer. lol
I rather do Jennifer, too. Her rack is awesome. drool

You gotta deal with body issues mentally, not just "fix" them physically.

I need breast reduction surgery. Being that I'm a guy,
it's only logical that in my situation, I have issues.

Wouldn't say obsession, just casual observation. I guess why Iam getting into her whole attractiness issue is because the amount of people who fancy the shit outta her rather puzzles me.

And no I dont hate Mariah. Nor do I obsess about her. "all in my mind" is one of my fav songs of hers, so Iam a casual fan at least.

And no, it doesn't bother me about her image/mental age really, just another, rather obvious observation.

And Stymie is right, Loew Hewitts rack is indeed awesome smile

Yes, Mariah has an amazing voice, but she shows it off way too often. Iam not fussed about how many octaves a singer can hit (look at opera singers for some hardcore singing), and infact, voice doesn't really affect me much at all. But to give Jennifer credit, she has a decent (if limited) voice, and is quite pure to my ears. Mariah murdered "without you" "hero" and even ruins the great "anytime yu need a friend", by goin' too far on the adlibs. Maybe working with Walter Afansief brought out the Michael Bolton in her, as Wally worked with Bolton aswell. Its annoying when its too much.


I agree, and this goes for most talented singers, less is more nod
At this point in history, we have a choice to make
To either, walk the path of love, or be crippled by our hate

She writes most of her songs.



No she doesn't. Believe me, Iam a massive geek when it comes to cd booklets, and she CO-WRITES most her stuff. Not a problem, but there is a difference.


The person whose name is first in the writing credit means that they wrote the bulk of the song lyrics. The credits are actually divided up by percentanges aka "splits" (for financial purposes at ASCAP). This, for obvious reasons, is not shown in a cd booklet. Anyhoo, I think it's pretty silly to suggest that she's not capable of soley composing a song on her own, particularly as a lot of collabs happen once the main song strucure has been written, and then once you run it through and start to tweak it, your parnter interjects to help if there's a flow problem. A lot of writers who appear second in the credits manage to get credit that way. The only true way one can decipher who's done how much of what, though, are the splits on the paper. But Maria's sooo consistent in the structure of her songs (especially her ballads), how she arranges melodies and backing vocals, it's pretty apparent that she writes the bulk of her own material...additionally, a lot of people don't know that she's fairly competent at the mixing board as well, and stays right next to the engineer until the very last mix of her records. My ex has done studio work with her (Celine Dion too), and he was amazed at her stamina, said she could work everybody there under the table til the sun came up...

Cool info. I kinda guessed that whoever is first on the songwriting list did the most work, but on the albums I have of hers, she does always seem to co-write. It wouldn't affect my enjoyment of her music even if she did write all by herself, but people claiming she wrote all her stuff is just not true.

What was your ex's name bytheway? Iam sure I wouldn't recognize the name, but what work has he done?

Who said Mariah can write songs? You out of your fucking mind! Maybe once before. But the shit she's been doing lately has been abysmal, sophomoric.....no scratch that! That shit is preschool level. Plus her vocal skills have diminished over the years. The reason is probably the supposed stroke she had some time ago.
This sig is just a fig of your imago-neigh-shun
