album version of "lovin u long time" doesn't have TI on it though.


you like it better?


It helps put the Toomp production into perspective, IMHO. And this is the version I would want to play when I DJ.

Somehow the tracklist for this album appears more appealing when it is divided into 4 sides. I bolded my favorites.

RECORD ONE SIDE A
Migrate
Touch My Body
Cruise Control
Stay In Love

RECORD ONE SIDE B
Side Effects
I'm That Chick
Love Story

RECORD TWO SIDE C
I'll Be Lovin' You Long Time
Last Kiss
Thanx 4 Nothin'
O.O.C.

RECORD TWO SIDE D
For The Record
Bye Bye
I Wish You Well

E=MC had 5 good songs and MIMI had 4, you know what that equals? Bad albums.

neither album was anything to write home about shrug

and for all the praise Butterfly receives I wasnt particuraly fond of it upon the time it was released but i've since grown to like it. Was the last Mariah album I purchased before I bought Mimi 8 years later. I think I might take my own advice and stop buying her albums again if she continues to go in this direction.

I totally agree on Butterfly, i have never seen or heard what makes this album a classic, outside of the fact that MC says its her favorite. Its got some good cuts, but it also has bad ones. A big issue with Mariah is the fact that all her album cuts are inter-changeable, her albums have no identity, its a major artistic flaw she has.

although it's not without it's flaws I personally find Daydream to be a superior album to Butterfly

I was just listening to Charmbracelet today. It's worse than Rainbow. They're my least favorite of her albums.

Rainbow and Charmbracelet are both pretty dire, but Charmbracelet had one of her most interesting and worthwhile songs: Clown. Rainbow has really nothing to recommend.

I own Charmbracelet only because it was a gift from a family member

I listened to it once and never had the desire to want to listen to it again which is rare for me

Charmbracelet is good for the fan favorite, Subtle Invitation but Rainbow has about two or three memorable ones depending on who you ask.

/Thank God I Found You/

/Heartbreaker/



No, they're not and they would be great bonus tracks. Those are two of my fave remixes by her along with Always Be My Baby.

I really want her to do more music like this. Maybe she's waiting for when she's older but I thought she was going to move in this direction sooner rather than later.

I wish she would do an entire album with Walter Afanasieff and James Poyster

especially Afanasieff, they both complemated each other very well in my opinion
