Mariah Carey

[skylynx]

Kinda random, but Mariah could well join Adele next week with 3 consecutive albums with a lead single more than 7 weeks. Music Box, Merry Christmas and Daydream.

Also another record up for grabs (if she can hold off RATCT) is the title of the longest #1 for a female artist in streaming history.

Janet might lack big pop hits of the girls, but has the best music as a whole. I listen to music from all her albums which I can't even say about Mariah..... Rainbow, Glitter and Charmbracelet have about 4 listenable songs between them

I agree with you that Janet’s whole catalogue is amazing but no need for comparison.

[Shaka]

And suddenly, without the gowns, she looks 15 years younger. Haha

I know, she looks stunning

And the Prada hat, I looooove it.

Of course she will.

She IS a hip-hop queen

That style suits her so well.
Like seriously, she looks 35.

[stevyy]

It's so... well... unfortunate that Sweetheart wasn't promoted in the US... because the 2(!) following singles did really well:

#15 When you Believe (2x Gold)
#4 I Still Believe (1x Platinum)

<3 #1's was a banger hit. A true smash.

queen, indeed. Mariah and pants go back like babies with pacifiers.

[Askforsnow]

I hope she slipped a note to Spotify to *cough cough* do something about adding her to the Classics playlist.

[Askforsnow]

Imagine all the money Spotify would make off a 1 billion song getting even bigger if they were fair to US audiences who enjoy Christmas classics with honest and fair rules.

[Shaka]

In Asia she has so many signature hit but Hero is her ultimate signature song.

Her "signature" or "most popular" song varies in every country, but overall if we have to make a list of the most known overall, we know which ones those are.

P.S.
Emotions is quite popular.
No, it's not "signature" on a global scale, but it has grown over the years.
I think today with tik-tok and other platforms (or even a feat in a movie) songs can go viral and get some more life.

I mean, look what happened with Obsessed (thanx to Tik-Tok) and Fantasy (thanx to Free Guy).

That's true, sadly.

A real shame.

If promoted, Sweetheart could've done very well.

I mean, with that video

And the song sounds hot.

I love the #1's Era, I think is a lil underrated.

[allygdale]

queen, indeed. Mariah and pants go back like babies with pacifiers.

So chic too with that coat, it’s like The Remixes cover but more sophisticated and artsy

I love her in oversized shirts with pants and short flowy dresses, the gowns don’t do much for me either outside of red carpet events

Hero was very well marketed by quinceañeras here in Argentina.
I guess Hero and Without You are most known by everyone here in Arg. Right Shaka? What do you think?

[Shaka]

Was this one posted?

Mariah Carey and her son, Moroccan, talk Christmas traditions and new children's book

I know!

Loved her look back in 2018 for Roc Nation Grammy Brunch.

[Askforsnow]

Amazon Music has the large playlist with every big Christmas song and one called Christmas Past. Guess who is in Christmas Past too? Celine Dion and Mariah Carey. Spotify does not.

I’ll never understand how they have a random song from the 1990 Home Alone soundtrack (not RATCT - which by the way benefits a lot from being used in Home alone) in the classics playlist but not AIWFCIY which is so obvious.

Hero is also always performed on talent shows here!

Yeah, most known here:
Hero
Without You
AIW

Others: My All, AAO.

P.S. I've heard Emotions, VOL & ABMB in the radio several times.

YES!

And re: the new Harper's Bazaar photoshoot - she should wear green more often (and not only on St. Patrick's day! ). She looks fantastic in it.

(as does she in yellow, hot-pink, blue and red. Pretty much all bold colors suit her.)

I was so happy for her #1 this year again, her Christmas domination will never end, she'll probably be going to #1 forever!

Can't wait to hear her new music in the new year. Something tells me it'll come a lot sooner than we expect!

[Shaka]

Yeah, I was going to mention how good she looks in green!

But yellow is HER color.

Also love her in gold and silver (metallic colors), pink (fuchsia) & turquoise
