I wonder if there is a SOLO version of FILAC ?

I feel like Khalid wasnt on the original and was just added at the end (i.e When Christmas comes with John Legend)

I still cannot get myself to like the song. Its not Christmassy enough....

[SawyerHewitt]

I don't really get what you see in FILAC, tbh.
The outro is where it's at for me.

I love the fact that Oh Santa! is finally getting some recognition because it's DAT bop. Only thing I didn't quite like when it was first released was that autotuned whistle at the end.

I still stand by my opinion that CTIITAA should become her next Xmas classic. Sounds timeless!

[delapuerta]

THIS!!! Don’t forget that she also gave us the best performance of My All since ‘97 in Cardiff.

This was insane. I saw her twice in that tour (Luxembourg and Milan) and she was in really great vocal shape. The Luxembourg one was when she was late because nobody in her team know about the time difference lool

Mariah Carey Joins Producing Team Of Broadway’s ‘Some Like It Hot’

By Greg Evans

November 28, 2022 11:03am

Mariah Carey has signed on as a co-producer of the new musical comedy Some Like It Hot, becoming the latest in a trend of celebrities lending their clout and popularity to support Broadway productions during previews.

“When Neil Meron shared this new take on the beloved film,” said Carey in a statement, “I knew I had to be a part of it. To see how this show continues to expand on the film’s legacy – pushing boundaries, promoting inclusion, celebrating diversity – I’m proud to help bring Some Like It Hot for today’s world to new audiences.”

Currently in previews at the Shubert Theatre, Some Like It Hot officially opens on Sunday, December 11.

Earlier this month, NBA champ Dwyane Wade, actor Gabrielle Union and Drag Race star RuPaul joined the producing team of Ain’t No Mo’, a Lee Daniels production of Jordan E. Cooper’s comedy in previews at the Belasco Theatre (opening Dec. 1).

Last season, Nick Jonas and Priyanka Chopra Jonas joined the producing team of Douglas Lyons’ Broadway comedy Chicken & Biscuits while it was in previews at Circle in the Square Theatre.

The impact of celebrity producers – and their exacts roles, duties and financial commitments – is, as yet, unclear. Despite the high-profile additions of the Jonases last fall, Chicken & Biscuits closed more than a month early after struggling at the box office (and with Covid).

Carey, who has won multiple Grammy Awards and sold more than 200 million albums, said she was drawn to Some Like It Hot – a musical adaptation of the classic 1959 film comedy – in part due to her lifelong love of the film’s star Marilyn Monroe.

“I first became familiar with this story through the timeless film starring Marilyn Monroe,” she said in the statement. “She’s been an important touchstone throughout my life, so much so that I acquired her treasured baby grand white piano at an auction.”

The stage adaptation features a book by Matthew López (The Inheritance) & Amber Ruffin (The Amber Ruffin Show), music by Marc Shaiman, lyrics by Scott Wittman and Marc Shaiman (Hairspray) and direction and choreography by Casey Nicholaw (The Book of Mormon). The cast includes Christian Borle, J. Harrison Ghee and, in the role of Sugar originated by Monroe, Adrianna Hicks.

Some Like It Hot is produced by The Shubert Organization and Neil Meron and co-produced by MGM on Stage, Roy Furman, Robert Greenblatt, James L. Nederlander, Kenny Leon, Hunter Arnold, John Gore Organization, The Dalgleish Library Company Group, Sheboygan Conservatory Partners, Ambassador Theatre Group Productions, Bob Boyett, Cue to Cue Productions, Janet and Marvin Rosen, The Araca Group, Concord Theatricals, Marc Howard, Independent Presenters Network, Juanita Jordan, Jujamcyn Theaters, Henry R. Muñoz III, Ostar, and, now, Carey.

Ooh la la, MIMI is so accomplished in everything. Goes to show that even when you come from NOTHING, you could end up becoming a global music legend and do everything else that the entertainment world offers you:

.- jewellery designer
.- actress
.- author
.- make-up designer
.- fashion designer
.- perfume designer
.- beverage producer
.- Irish Liquor producer
.- film producer
.- Broadway producer
.- director
.- label CEO

etc, what has this woman not done. Proud of her versatility. BTW you can still buy "M" by MIMI in Germany. It's insane. She / We never talk about it.

Marc Shaiman is on it. I love they are still in touch. Shaiman is a great producer

Theres's something ethereal and magical in FILAC for me. Her tone and the calm mood with the Spanish guitar, and the luxurious production with the soft percussions... And even Khalid voice harmonizing with Mariah is like a match made from Heaven. It's all wrapped together with an absolute beautiful outro from Kirk Franklin and a choir.

It's just perfection and magical for me.

Meanwhile, four holiday classics jingle all the way back to the Hot 100’s top 10: Mariah Carey‘s “All I Want for Christmas Is You,” up from No. 25 to No. 5; Brenda Lee’s “Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree” (41-6); Bobby Helms’ “Jingle Bell Rock” (50-9); and Burl Ives’ “A Holly Jolly Christmas” (a re-entry at No. 10).

Mariah Carey’s “All I Want for Christmas Is You” dashes 25-5 on the Hot 100, with 21.5 million streams (up 54%), 20.6 million airplay audience impressions (up 80%), and 3,000 sold (up 57%). It bounds 17-3 on Streaming Songs, 35-14 on Digital Song Sales and re-enters Radio Songs at No. 38. It also crowns the multi-metric Holiday 100 chart for a 52nd week, of the chart’s 57 total weeks since the list launched in 2011; it has topped the ranking for 37 consecutive weeks, dating to the start of the 2015-16 holiday season, and rules as the top title on the Greatest of All Time Holiday 100 Songs chart.

The song sports a record-setting history on the Hot 100, following its 1994 release on Carey’s 1994 album Merry Christmas. As streaming grew through the 2010s and holiday music became more prominent in Yuletide playlists on multiple streaming services, the modern carol hit the top 10 (reaching No. 9) for the first time in December 2017 and the top five (No. 3) for the first time in the 2018 holiday season. In December 2019, it ascended to the summit, 25 years after its original release, becoming the second holiday hit ever to reign, after “The Chipmunk Song” by David Seville & the Chipmunks spent four weeks at No. 1 beginning in December 1958.

“Christmas” became Carey’s 19th Hot 100 No. 1, as she extended her mark for the most among soloists and moved to within one of The Beatles’ overall record 20.

As “Christmas” dominated the Hot 100 for three weeks on the charts dated Dec. 21, 2019, through Jan. 4, 2020, Carey also became the first artist to have ranked at No. 1 on the survey in four distinct decades. The track led again for two weeks in the 2020 holiday season, passing “The Chipmunk Song” for the most for a Yuletide song, and ruled for three more frames over the 2021 holidays, upping its total to eight weeks at No. 1.

An Oscar for best supporting actress for “a Christmas melody”

[WEBofDESIRE]

It's a favorite of mine as well. Something about it just screams old Hollywood, this needs some kind of classic B&W video with 40s-50s esque leading man and a bit of a story. It deserved so much better than what it got.

@mm2912 that was for TV, that has "Emmy for Outstanding Directing for a Limited or Anthology Series or Movie" written all over it.

That can be her E.

[stevyy]

An Oscar for best supporting actress for “a Christmas melody”

or best director for that movie. It's become a Christmas staple to be honest.
