Mariah Carey - Greatest Hits
: :This has the best collection of songs :These days she's fodder for tabloid writers and late-night comics, but way back in the '90s Mariah Carey ruled the charts. This two-disc collection offers up evidence why, for better or worse, Mariah's five-octave, pop/R&B stylings set the diva standard. Greatest Hits culls its offerings from Carey's five albums on Sony (she is now signed to Virgin), and you get all the facets of her platinum-plus sound. From the soulful ...

The Emancipation of Mimi - Platinum Edition
:Album Description:Includes the bonus tracks Secret Luv and Suplang. :Early buzz on The Emancipation of Mimi predicted that this would be the disc to mark 'the return of the voice'--the voice being that glass-shattering instrument that propelled Carey to bestselling female artist of all time status--and mostly it is. But because of the small army of talent involved in its assembly, the album is way more than just a comeback vehicle. For proof, try the straight-ahead, look-out-Beyoncé-Mimi's-still-got-it 'Mine ...

Daydream
: :'Fantasy' provides the only real transcendent chapter on this album. Reinterpreting Tom Tom Club's 'Genius of Love' with a percolating dance beat, the single emphasizes everything that makes Mariah Carey great. Her voice swoops, squeals, and careens over the seductive rhythm, while the words capture just the right amount of vulnerability and determination. Unfortunately, the thrill is short-lived, as the multiplatinum singer soon falls back into typical adult-contemporary schlock and pointless vocal gymnastics, particularly on 'Melt Away' and ...

Butterfly
:Album Description:The second single & title track of her 1997 album. Pt.1features 'Butterfly' (Album Version), 'Fly Away (ButterflyReprise)' (Album Version), 'Fly Away (Butterfly Reprise)'(Fly Away Club Mix) and 'The Roof' (Remix With Mobb Deep).Slimline jewel case. 1997 Co :Carey's first post-divorce effort makes passing allusions to her ex-hubby (and label honcho) Tommy Mottola, but it doesn't dwell on them the way many similar projects do. Instead, Carey is right back to her old tricks; cooing trademark melismatic spirals ...

Music Box
:Album Description:Includes A Bonus Track. :Linda Ronstadt was America's sweetheart of the '70s, because she was able to combine a pretty face, a pretty voice and a safe personality. Her songs might be full of big notes and high emotions, but they satisfied every predictable expectation of a love ballad or good-time rocker. Mariah Carey is America's sweetheart of the '90s for the exact same reasons. Music Box topped the Billboard album charts, yielding number-one singles like 'Dreamlover' ...

Merry Christmas
:Album Description:Limited edition Japanese reissue of the 1994 Christmas album includes a bonus DVD (NTSC/Region 2). SME. 2005. :She's been hailed for her multi-octave vocal range--a tool that sometimes detracts from her pop recordings, but actually works quite beautifully in the context of this charming holiday collection. Fans will surely approve of Carey's renditions of slinky secular songs like 'Christmas (Baby, Please Come Home)' and a nicely subdued 'All I Want for Christmas Is You.' But where she ...

# 1's
: :Mariah Carey's #1's is as much a time capsule of '90s pop and R&B as a record of one woman's chart toppers: the disc chronicles a shift from the sweet, nearly '50s-style 'Vision of Love' to more recent hip-hop-lite grooves featuring heavy input from Puffy Combs ('Honey'), Jermaine Dupri ('Sweetheart'), and O.D.B. ('Fantasy'). Some hit, some miss, but all feature the fluttery swoops that Carey substitutes for expression of feeling. Depth is beside the point, but few of ...
