Can't Let Go is my favourite off that album though this is also pretty good. I wish it got more credit overall.

I liked it better when it was called "The Best of My Love."

I agree. "Can't Let Go" is definitely my favorite on that album. "If It's Over" is my next favorite. I think this album is overlooked a lot of times and gets overshadowed by some of her later albums, but I really liked this project.

she was incredible back in the day...voice, looks, everything.

I always preferred her looks and music to Whitney, even though I must admit Whitney was maybe a tad bit better of a vocalist...that's a hard one though, cause the both of them were amazing voices.

Interesting you mentioned WH. I was never a big WH fan, but was a MC fan from day one. I think the fake image that WH projected when she first came out turned me off. MC has always been a "diva" from day one. She put on a front also, but her front was the shy, powerful type.

I would even argue that it's the best song of her career, if not top 5. I feel a lot of emotions from that one, her voice is perfect, and her notes are stellar, especially that high one. It beats Hero by a long shot.

I like this Mariah, not the one that whispers about rainbows and ponies with 50 guest rappers.

SO GLAD somebody mentioned Best of my Love. I knew this song sounded similar to another song I liked, but couldn't pitt my finger on it.

As far as Mariah and Whitney go, I feel Whitney has the better voice and material. Many of Mariah's songs are forgettable and haven't stood the test of time. But her debut, Music Box, and Daysream are her best work IMO.

Love this song! One of my favorite MC sons. I still can't find a song that feature such high vocals as on this song.

Mariah and her late co producer(R.I.P) I think was sued for plagiarizing the song "Emotions". It was an obvious dedication to The Emotions.Thisis the song that made me take notice of her vocals. Her vocal layering is impeccable.

I think Whitney had the better voice & more control over it. But as far as songs. The big difference between the two. Is Mariah was a songwriter & wrote the majority of if not all her songs, besides the remakes. By the way her remake of Prince's classic "Beautiful Ones" was horrid.

eye will ALWAYS think of prince like a "ACT OF GOD"! N another realm. eye mean of all people who might of been aliens or angels.if found out that prince wasn't of this earth, eye would not have been that surprised. R.I.P. prince

I also think the Glitter soundtrack is a damn good album. As well as Butterfly.
