Never Too Fat...I haven't heard that song

[whoawhoa]

I keep forgetting to check this but that last batch is phenomenal!!!!! They basically all deserved the top 100, especially over many of the songs ranked #100 - #80.

Till the End of Time is an absolute MASTERPIECE!! It's sooo underrated, haunting and well constructed! It was a very close contender for my third 11.

Almost Home isn't one of my favourites but I'm glad to see it higher than expected! It's actually the reason I became a lamb, which I don't think many could say

Honestly thought Make It Last Remix would perform much better than TGIFY original. I like both but prefer the remix and thought that was the general consensus.

If It's Over is good but ranked appropriately, because the Grammy's performance (AKA her best live performance) outshines the studio version for me by a mile.

"Till The End Of Time" is a masterpiece

[Goldmoney]

“I Want To Know What Love Is” was such a calculated attempt to win back her Karen audience (down to the VOL-esque ensemble in the video/live performances ) but it’s such a guilty pleasure. That climax gives me so much LIFE, I hadn’t been so shook by a vocal run since GOAT.

Kween respects “Almost Home” as much as she does her ex-siblings. Still, it could have been a cute lil hit for her had it been properly promoted at all.

[Tomer_MC]

I like TGIFY but the remix is way better - top 60 on my list any day!

IWTKWLI is a great cover. I remember feeling so thrilled when I first heard it.

The biggest disappointment so far is I Only Wanted not making the top 100...

My All & ATYNAF dance remixes are in the hall of fame Mariah songs of all time. I'm sure the original songs placements will make it alright

[nemospence]

I Want To Know What Love Is deserved not to be in the Top 100. Nor will it ever hold up in the future. Mariah could have owned the song. The arrangement was there already. But it was a clear miss after hearing it wholly. I said well done, not half cooked dahhling...

[Thriller]

Some great ones in there! Almost Home was nice, as is the remix of AYNAF, but my favourite is the mighty Morales remix of My All - an absolute masterclass in turning a diva ballad into a diva dance anthem.

[InfoFromAus]

I really like Almost Home as well. I'm surprised by its rank... I thought it would be lower, but happy it's almost top 100.

[mattsky]

Almost Home is one of her most underrated songs

[InfoFromAus]

What an amazing batch of songs!!!

I'm surprised to see Long Ago being the talking point here! I mean, it's a nice song but didn't expect this reaction.

And yeah, I thought people would be much more upset about Crybaby and I thought it would scrape into the bottom tier of the top 100 for sure.

[Tomer_MC]

Wait..... The One & Crybaby didn't make the top 100?? that is just... wrong.

I love Long Ago & Dedicated but I feel they both got fair positions.

[Rawiri James]

Yeah, I love Long Ago. Such an underrated song. The production, lyrics and vocals are so damn good.

[mattsky]

Long Ago is great

[bm08]

This is an amazing batch!!

Im pleasantly surprised to see And You Don't Remember so high up. It's a remarkable track and one of her most soulful. The entire Emotions album deserves a lot more!

When Christmas Comes is perhaps overrated. Same with Christmas Time Is In The Air Again.

Dont Play That Song is one of her best covers!

The One is one of the best on Charmy. Same with Dedicated on MIAMITECH.

[TheRealest]

Omg I should’ve voted for real cause yalls taste is horrible like wtf

[Goldmoney]

Long Ago not in the top 100 is a crime. Her most chocolate sounding song up to that point + one of the first times she worked with JD, which in and of itself is a landmark in her career when you consider what would happen 10 years later.

And as the good sis TheRealest said:

Long Ago is everything we love a queen who can ride a beat

You should have voted sis, the positions of some of these songs are

[Rawiri James]

Heartbreaker, ABMB and My All remixes are all dope. HB is probably my 2nd or 3rd favourite remix.

For me, You're Mine (Eternal) is the best song from The Elusive Chanteuse, even better than Beautiful. Without the song, I would have considered the album utter failure. It's a cute song. It should definitely enter Mariah's Top 100 in the years to come.

I've been saying this for years, honestly. I find it really strange when people say its formulaic and the same. The lyric structure is unique - no other song in her entire discog works the chorus and verses the same way as this song - and while the piano is very typical MC, the synths and drums on this aren't. And the 'bored' vocal comment I've never understood.

I don't mind that people don't like it, or think its average, though. I'm happy to keeping it as my jam.

[monarcbutterfly]

Disappointed Loverboy (Firecracker) isn’t higher. It’s my favourite version of the song, the chorus just seems stronger to me, I love it

[Leo]

Loverboy (Firecracker - Original Version) I enojy it even better than the other original.

Meteorite is great!

Hark! The Herald Angels Sing / Gloria (In Excelsis Deo) probably my fav traditional christmas song behind O Holy Night.

Heartbreaker (Remix) ft. Da Brat & Missy Elliott sooo looowwww such a fun and addictive remix!!!

My All / Stay Awhile ft. Lord Tariq & Peter Gunz [So So Def Remix] ok, this one hurts to see so low... it's top10 imo. Such a sensual rendition of the song. If Jermaine & Mimi like this,then I like.

Always Be My Baby (ft. Da Brat & Xscape) (Mr. Dupri Mix) another cool remix out

[Goldmoney]

I should've left it at, how ya doing
I should've left it at I like your music too, and
I should've never called you back when you pursued me
I should've never given you my f’n two way
