Looking back. 2019 November and December were simply the greatest most focused gameplan we had since 2005.
They were doubling down in so many ways.
First it was the It's Time inaugural video that went viral, then there was the repackaged 20th anniversary CD. Then there was the countless interventions and advertisements she did on social media.
Then they released those signed CDs which ultimately wasn't even required that week to score the #1. Such was her power.
They then had a secret weapon in the form of the Music Video remake which had huge production value and rewatchability. That video wasn't even required to go #1.
Then they had extra insurance in the form of the celebrity version of the Music Video singalong. Had they faltered above i'm sure they would've made a much bigger deal about that video then simply dropping that at the backend of the season.
She came to slay.
I need this level of focus and investment in MC16.

She needs to start working on trying to push another song up there, she doesn't have anything else close at the moment. It would probably take multiple seasons and some focused effort to work one of the other songs up to the top. Especially considering she'd ultimately need to beat her own juggernaut in AIW. Even a top 10 would be great though.
From a business standpoint I think she could build on her Xmas brand quite a bit. She should be the face of the entire holiday line at one of the large stores (Walmart, Target, Lowe's, Home Depot, etc.), there is no one better to do it. Maybe promo from something like that along with pushing a song onto the soundtrack of one of the bigger holiday film releases could set things up for a big push for another track.Comment

I was already expecting to be slayed by the AIWFCIY chart placement and streaming performance but all these numbers are slaying my initial slay-ment!

What the past couple of people said who encountered MIMI is that she walks over to the people, singing. I find this so cute. Like when Millie Bobby Brown told us that MIMI would just randomly sing things during dinner. lol.Originally posted by lambforever View Post
Queen be like:
"Oh, there's MJ, Billie Jean is not my lovah, darling."
"Oh, there's Whitney, I wanna gossip with somebody, somebody who gossips back."
"Oh, there's Céline, Near far, wherever you are, Céline, My heart will go oooooooooooooon."
She's sooo goofy and adorable like that.My ChartComment

I'm curious...a Xmas song hitting top 5/10 in US, late November.
I'm from Asia, and usually Xmas hype starts in mid December.
So, why is Xmas hype very early in US?Comment

I get what youre saying but AIWFCIY would have got to #1 even if she hadnt done all those things. The only reason why I feel like stating that is to rebuke the theory that other releases underperform due to the lack of that kind of marketting. Up until Beautiful, it could have been the case but not anymore. Now, all of that would be nice but isnt enough to give Mariah another hit, just like a great potential single hasnt been enough to bring Mariah back a fourth time.Originally posted by skylynx View Post
AIWFCIYs success is more than the sum of its parts. Its larger than life and just special, but that doesnt take away the fact that every single little thing counted to elevate it to where it is today.Comment

This !! I don't care any artists if they can make it happen... I still believe that BTS x MARIAH may be the easiest way to achieve 20th #1 for her...Originally posted by skylynx View Post
I like BTS as a solo
I think their solo songs not geared toward the pop western audience like Butter or Permssion to Dance is better.
But hey, anything that can score mimi her 20th and 21st #1s will be something I can live with...as long as it's not some vile act.Soft heavenly eyes gazed into me
