The vocals on Through The Rain are so "copy & paste" (anyone who's ever edited a sound file will know...) and don't have a natural flow, I think this is the reason why she doesn't sing live, because it's quite difficult, there are hardly breaks for breathing as the bits are put together so neatly :-/ It's a bit of a shame, but the song still is pretty good.
If you're wondering if she's lost her voice I strongly suggest listening to "Bringin On The Heartbreak" (is that high note high or what), unless she'd recorded it 10 years ago I can assure you the voice is still there, she just doesn't do gymnastics in every song.
The album has really grown on me now btw, better than "Butterfly"
I used to be a big Mariah fan but I downloaded her album yesterday and I have to say I don't like it at all. I would have purchased it if it had been a good CD.
The songs are pretty dull for my taste and she just isn't the Mariah anymore she once used to be. Instead of taking a step forward she took two steps back. She doesn't sing a straight note anymore. I wouldn't say she's losing her voice this is just probably what she wants to sound like now, which isn't my cup of tea. What a shame.
I hate to admit it (since I never liked Whitney) but Mrs Houston's album is MUCH better!!
Don't give up on the album. The first time I heard it, I couldnt believe this was the same Mariah who made songs like Hero. I kept on listening to it and it really grows on you. Bringing on the heartbreak and my saving grace are future classics. Don't judge the midweek charts to reflect on the quality of an album. People doubt Mariah's abilities so have avoided buying the album. If they listened to it, it would change their minds.
When you left I lost a part of me, It's still so hard to believe
Come back baby please cos We belong together June 27th
I bought this today and have just finished listening to it and......... I think it's great i love it. But then i love Mariah I have all the albums and think this is up there with 'butterfly' and 'Daydream'. Welcome back Mariah i've missed ya
!!! If they were aiming for this type of single, "You Got Me" would have been a better choice imo. I mean she sampled a 1 year old popular single which is much more enjoyable than her song, then released it as a single, wtf?
Plus the song's performances were so embarassing (the dresses, the playbacks...).
Sometimes, I love this and sometimes I don't like this album. :-?
Same here.
She was so basic this entire era... most of the performances were Playback, the album flopped, the singles flopped, her voice was piss-poor (before the Tour).
I mean.... Ewww. At least during Glitter she was flopping with style, this was down-right embarrassing.
The CB Tour was the only saving grace of this period.
Photoshoot fresh... I'm about to call the paparazzi on myself.
