Mariah Carey

Ohh did they speed it up? I like the tempo!

No speed change. Hopefully it makes BB hot 100.

Taylor looked desperately pathetic last year but Mariah & BTS may have to do the similar way Taylor did to overtake her own song AIWFCIY.
It would be amazing if she takes both #1 and #2 places at the same time.

BTS almost always discount their single the first week and also releases multiple versions. I think a song released during a relatively weak week during the xmas season stands a chance for sure.

I still think there is life in the Oh Santa remix. If she could get the teams of the other girls together to put some things together there is definitely room for a top tier re-entry.

It’s amazing that all the fifth harmony girls still absolutely adore Mariah! It really is true, all the 2000’s and 2010’s talent show girls were emulating Mariah. Without her there would be no American Idol or X-Factor!

Variety reports MC has a “partnership” with Range Media - but doesnt give any details. The phrasing of “partnership” makes it seem more than just a manager - client relationship. Maybe this is bigger than we think. Maybe its nothing at all. We’ll see

I like that - covering all angles.

It is interesting phrasing. Could be a promotions deal or production deal or something ?

Not sure. Could simply be how Range Media “Partners” market themselves?

Other outlets appear to report the same language but nothing specific. So could just be the traditional manager - client relationship. Interestingly, Range Media has yet to announce this so everyone is working on background sources. Weird.

Any lambs in New Zealand or Australia please let us know your thoughts on the single when it comes out first in your country.

Is it coming out midnight tonight?

I've been so busy lately I've lost track of dates

[Shaka]

I'm not sure, I didn't save the early leaked version LOL. But for me sounds the same but mixed.
It sounds way better in HQ. Her tone sounds great!

depends on when they would release the song... if they release it 2 weeks before xmas... then AIWFCIY could block whatever new xmas song she would do with BTS bc AIWFCIY is kind of the biggest song ever in that period... I mean Taylor Swift needed 12 individually released remixes of her new song which she then discounted multiple times during the week in order to just squeeze ahead of "All".

And she did all of that for 1 point difference #neverforget

Mariah would never do that, c'mon let's be real.

"Mother Mimi" yasss, we love Lauren <3

[Shaka]

Oh thank god we are back, 48 more hours!

Actually less than 24 hours in the US! It's a thursday release and Aussie lambs are gonna have it in a few hours!

Is it coming out midnight tonight?

Yep!

I hope they goes harder with the promo this year.
They can perform the song live in some show, I think that will generate lots of buzz, especially 'cause Mimi X Ari in the same stage. I'm not sure if the girls are interested (actually their respective teams, 'cause we know both Ari & J-H would love it).
Also, I hope both are taking part from the Apple Special this year again.

And let's not pretend a #1, just a better chart run than last year - IF it happens.
It's just a wishful thinking

[Shaka]

OMG, I just noticed Mariah posted this on her YT Channel in '17, totally missed it.

This is my jam!

She didn't like Where I belong LOL.
We love her tho!

[Bulwieboo]

Lol she's a true lamb, and just can't waint any longer. I can't wait too. Love the snipped, her vocals are on fire... I don't support leaking music, but if someone has it in full pelase DM me

Technically it won't be a leak, so don't feel guilty It's gonna be out in some countries first.

Plus it won't even chart, so no harm will be done.

Best scenario is some airplay success - which I hope it reaches.

Anyway, share the song in your social media gurls!

That is unlikely to happen. They are just the featured artists - and as you pointed out , featured artists or their teams aren't gonna do much for a song. Especially on a song like Oh Santa where the girls were basically just background vocalists with an adlib or two at the end. Mariah should have taken advantage of Ariana and used her much more liberally in the song if she really wanted to get Arianators interested and behind the song, and then by extension her team - see The Weeknd and Save your tears remix. He takes a complete backseat on the track and allows Ariana to completely take over it !

Spoiler Alert, in case you don't want to hear about the new song.

So I log in randomly and find out from you all that Meemz has a new song out and I had no idea at all. I happen to be in NZ at the moment. So it's now available on Youtube in NZ. So first impressions are that it's pleasant but pretty much like the snippet released before x 2 (i.e. 2 verse, 2 prechorus and 2 chorus). After that, it's got some fun whistles in the bridge and then the final chorus x 2 with some more fun runs and whistles at the end. No crazy vocals at the end. It gives me "filler" track vibes from something like Rainbow or MOAIA ... very nostalgic - even 80s in some touches. In some parts, the vocals sound a bit transister radio-ish/dry, but nothing too horrible. Overall, pleasant and nice that Meemz is continuing to record new music. Maybe it will grow a bit more on me after a few listens.

I'm loving it so far. Her voice sounded clear, it's like TEOM meets Rainbow vocals especially towards the end. Her whistle notes sounded light and strong like the TBO whistles.

Love the harp elements in the intro. The whistle at the end reminds me of Mine Again.

[HiNote]

If anybody has the link to the song , please Private message me !! Of course, IM GOING TO STREAM the song once it’s officially released in the states. But I would love to listen early since it’s out in other countries.
