 Hi! This
page is for Mariah Carey,
one of the top recording pop artists of this decade. Here you can find pointers to almost
all the information about her on the web. Enjoy surfing below!
In her first 2 or 3 albums, Mariah demonstrated her incredible vocal
power. However later on, especially in her latest efforts, she somehow shows helpless
weakness. But definitely she is much sexier than ever.

Ratings of her songs
Warnings: the following ratings only reflect my personal tastes and should not be taken
too seriously.
Brief
Summary (BS) |
| Mariah Carey |
This stunning debut album defines her status in the pop
arts of the '90s. First single is her declaration for what she is and what she is about.
However there are several immature songs. But definitely very promising. |
| Emotions |
This sophomore album contains the title cut, which is probably one
of the few reasons to own this record. She really needed time to think about herself. |
| Music Box |
This near-classic album defines her to be one of top divas of the
'90s. She is more prepared than ever to sing and stun the world. |
| Daydream |
Although this album has a couple of all time favorites, she is
actually at her wit's end. She needs a change. |
| Butterfly |
Her '97 album is nothing but change. Her songs start to have
meanings. However, she is basically still exercising her talents and looking for where she
belongs. One more thing: Mariah, it is not so bad to hire someone to write songs for you. |
| Unplugged, Merry Christmas, Ones |
They are too commercially movitated, and I believe that
"Ones", due this November, is solely released to give a boost to Mariah's
singing career. I hope this will do what it is expected and become a nice transition to
the next album. |
Conclusions
Mariah is getting sweeter and sexier. I guess I am looking at a different her. Time
flies.
