Phwoarrrrrrrrr

What is it baby?!?!?!? What’s happening?!?!?!?!

Ummm… I’m watching Mariah Carey…. “Mariah Carey Live: The Mimi Sessions”

How is it?!?!

Ummmm… I’m watching a 2nd time as I’m typing to u…

Why?

I… need to process her new voice…

New voice?!?

Babe… I don’t know how to explain this… when u know exactly how the records sounded right and now compared to her rendition …

Especially we belong together omg…

What about it?

Okay the 2nd listen is getting better…

What?!?!?!?

Will u just go listen then come back and then u kno what I mean?!?!?!??!?!

Ummm… πŸ‘€

We belong together was a big… adjustment… I feel like I know when she takes every breath of that song, originally. I know when she’s about to go to those notes…

This was… different…

The youtube comments are actually really nice.

Yeah…?

I don’t know how to explain what I’m feeling watching her sing right now… πŸ₯Ί

Lol… πŸ˜… I think I know… but I’m waiting for u to spell it out πŸ‘€

I don’t know how to spell it out!!!

Lol… how many times did u sing “we belong together” at karaoke 🎀 🎢???

Lol… πŸ˜… I can’t remember… but I do remember listening to it on REPEAT… a LOT at the time… πŸ˜…πŸ˜…πŸ˜…πŸ˜…πŸ˜…πŸ˜…

Lol…. 😏

And yes perhaps karaoke because I’m listening to her now and I’m shocked at where she’s taking her breath… 😳

Oh….

That’s a totally different rhythm. It’s not just the key change. It’s her lung capacity.

Yeah………..

Sigh…

It’s gonna happen to me too, u know?

😳………

We’re all gonna get older my love!

Stop! Ur not allowed to call Mariah Carey old!!!!!!!! πŸ™…β€β™€οΈ

Oops… what is this conversation then?!?!?!

Ummm… it is a Mariah Carey appreciation conversation…

Oh. I see… πŸ‘€ sorry! Ur right. She’s not old! She’s aging like fine wine…

Sigh. Anyway…

Anyway…….

I think she’s showing us, this is who she is now.

Yeah…?

Okay the 3rd listen is getting better…

The first listen was a shock.

It was because I was comparing to memories of the originals? πŸ₯΄

It’s okay. Just be honest. Of all the topics u can be purely honest about on this blog, I think music is something us as a couple and the readers of ur blog appreciate!

Ummm… I feel sad because I can hear that with aging, the strength is gone… the muscles are not the same…

Yeah…

It’s still good… okay the third listen is way better… πŸ‘‚

That’s good…

Lol… I didn’t meet u yet when “we belong together” was out… UR NOT ATTACHED TO THOSE MEMORIES!!!

Oh hahahhahaa!!! WHO WAS IT THEN?!?!?!?! πŸ‘€

I can’t remember… honestly I don’t remember who… but I remember singing the song all the time and listening on repeat.

Lol… I don’t think we’ve ever had a proper Mariah Carey conversation…

Lol… we haven’t?!?!?!

No?!!

Okay… ummm… the way she sings “babyface” now compared to the original… it just makes my heart ache a little πŸ₯Ί πŸ’”

Why?

It’s the way she used to have that urgghhh!!!!!! Okay I don’t know how to explain this…

Lol…….

It’s really nice songs she chose for this little set…

Yeah… 😏

I dunno why when the camera pans out and she’s like on side profile I feel like crying… πŸ₯ΊπŸ˜’

Why?!?!?!

I don’t know!!! It feels emotional!!! It reminds me of 90s Mariah but also this is 2025 Mariah!!!

Mmmhmmm…

She doesn’t have the… roarrrrrrrrr

No. She doesn’t…

Is this making u think about ur voice?

Yes… … …

See?!?!?!?!? πŸ₯Ί

I know but we can’t both be crying together watching Mariah Carey in 2025!!!!! 😭😭😭

Sigh… … … why did she do this?

I’m sure she’s explained in an interview here and there…

Ugh, I’m not gonna watch all that…

Lol… πŸ˜…

Okay I’m on the 4th listen and I’m appreciating it even more… πŸ‘€

U listen to Mariah on repeat a lot…

Babe. She’s like a singing teacher. Listen!!! πŸ‘‚

I know! I’m listening!!! πŸ‘‚πŸ‘‚πŸ‘‚

Lol… πŸ˜…

Omg… I feel like I’m gonna listen to this clip like 20 times tonight. There’s something new each time!!!!!! πŸ‘‚πŸ‘‚πŸ‘‚πŸ‘‚

Lol… don’t u have to do ur assignment? πŸ˜…
