And Merry Christmas at #39.
Not bad.

Even more impressive because all Christmas albums above MC are discounted except Buble’s. MC album stands with pride at full price.

She's just the best

Today has been the 1st full MC and MCIIY listening of the year and Joy to the world (st john the divine) is an incredible experience while driving a 6:30 a.m to work

Plus her studio albums havent been updated in years. It would be nice to have those updated before/for MC16

She's just so sweet!
The relationship she has with her fans is unique.

She nailed that.

I was watching some performances from Beacon '15 (underrated IMO) and I personally love this one.
Not only she totally killed the Intro, but the Outro slayed so hard!

When she goes in gospel mood LIVE u know she's not playing.

Yeah, it's gonna be hard to beat.
And Adele releases albums like every 5 years so...

Yeah and she’s only on her 4th.. I also feel like she’s losing steam with the public.

Amazing!
Almost 800K in the US, wow!
That counts for next week chart so expect a nice jump.

She already sarted the new chart week on a high today.
#1 on Amazon Music
#12 on US Apple Music
#13 on US iTunes

And the AIW (MMWCT Edition) MV alone is pulling 1.3M views (almost 1.8M daily with the combined versions that count for BB).

And damn, C(BPCH) is also slaying!

[Shaka]

Yeah and she’s only on her 4th.. I also feel like she’s losing steam with the public.

I'm not sure about that, time will tell!
She's releasing her 2nd single next week on Monday 29th btw (Oh My God).

[Shaka]

Btw, while the OG Darlene's version of C(BPCH) does better overall (on Spotify especially), on the iTunes Top 100 Christmas Song Mariah's version is sitting a lil higher (MC at #33 and Darlene at #44).

I wonder if in the near future her version (the good one AKA the '94 one ) will become more popular.

[Milano]

The good one

[Shaka]

"All I Want For Christmas Is You" is now at No.7 on Worldwide iTunes Song Chart

[Shaka]

The good one

We love everybody, right?!

Btw, isn't amazing that in the same year/month "All I Want" was crowned as The Greatest Holiday Song of All Time by Billboard and also received that well deserved and awaited Diamond Certification?

I mean, it's a big deal!

She can't stop winning it seems.

[bm08]

Seems as though Mariah and co are playing a relatively longer game with FILAC.

The song was released on November 5th.

But the radio impact date isnt until today (Nov 26th) and the signed CDs and the special aren't out until Dec 3rd.

I wonder what the impact of the new focus on the special could be on the Oh Santa remix and if we could expect anything more next week for that or FILAC.

Maybe a single release of Christmas baby please come home ( Butterfly lounge version)

[Shaka]

Ain't happening, LOL.

The gospel improv was amazing. I love this Mariah when she gets in the mood, her voice relaxes and she brings down the house

She's always so careful and restrained.
I love when she just lets her voice and musicianship do their thing.
She just needs to trust in her instrument and magic happens.

[Pureimagination]

I've been having the amazing FILAC on repeat lately, it truly deserves to be in Mariah's amazing catalog

[Milano]

It must be that her voice is very unpredictable, probably even at home, when singing for fun or practising..
And no wonder, such a huge range, different registers with intricate transitions, nodules, etc.
My voice is probably average male voice on its best day
But I have big lungs and can hold a note for very long, so I do that often for fun, when alone (!?). And I'm always shocked at how different and inconsistent it is. There really are good days and bad days when jt comes to singing..

And with Mariah, add the extremely difficult songs on top of that. Going back to a previous topic, easy for Bublé to say she was tight and nervous, he just gets out there and literally talks his songs out..

P.S. I am not baiting, I'm not shading Bublé. I know exactly which ones of you will jump with the he has a great voice, his songs are not only half an octave, etc. Just don't, this is not about that.
