Just fun note: Shake it off was blocked for reaching number one, by her own song, we belong together!! isn't that crazy? Fly like a bird, you need to see that in the live performance at the 2006 gammys, standing ovation. Thanks for sharing.
Everyone had counted Mariah out before this album came out. One of the best comebacks of my lifetime. It can’t be understated just how big this record was. R&B perfection.
I honestly do not think she gets enough credit for her musicality overall. She’s truly a genius but people can’t see that because they’re not able to hear critically. Her techniques are so soft and fast and quick it. It goes over peoples heads.
Fly Like a Bird is one of my favourite MC songs ever because I literally cry whenever I listen to it. The Emancipation of MiMi is banger after banger. I remember listening to this album incessantly when it first came out. Top 3 MC album for me.
PLEASE MORE MARIAH CAREY REACTIONS!!! Love your reactions from her and I love that you pay attention to the lyrics and special details she's putting into her songs!!!
Yesss! I was so excited for this. Im pretty sure I listed to Fly Like A Bird 3 or 4 times after the first listen. I kept replaying because it just kept building and building and building. Everything from the lyrics to the choir to her voice- it is truly one of her best of all time. You should definitely react to the grammy 2006 performance of WBT/FLAB. Mariah said in her book that this song truly got her through her own dark times, after the loss of her Dad and everything that happened with her family & label around the time of Glitter & Charmbracelet. It does the same for me now, so im so grateful for it. My faves on this album are actually all of the bonus tracks an obviously FLAB. Emancipation is number 4 for me after Butterfly, Daydream and Caution. Loved this reaction!
A flawless, masterpiece, no skip album. Arguable her best work. I love every track, but “Stay the night” is the standout for me as far as production and vocals. Kanye killed that instrumental. The beat/bass bumps hard if you’ve got a great stereo system in the car. As always, an amazing reaction.
So many people were saying she lost her voice in the 90s. This album was kind of like her saying, “Oh really motherf***s??” Lol I can’t rank her. She’s just amazing and every album is like an evolution of her music and her soul. It’s so beautiful. I just remember the nostalgic feeling I had when each album was released and that feeling of listening to it and we were all routing for her to really hit it out of the park and establish herself again as the force she is and so when the album dropped it was like magic. We Belong Together was named song of decade by Billboard magazine. It was a fun time. Saw her at the Garden in New York with this tour. Just fun and celebratory. 🎉❤😊
Great reaction/review of the album! My top 5 Mariah albums are: 1. Butterfly (1997) 2. The Emancipation of Mimi (2005) 3. Caution (2018) 4. Emotions (1991) 5. Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel (2009)
Okay so I quickly realized that this album will be 20 y.o. next year 😭😭🤯🤯🧓👴. Ok ,now this was THEEE album of 2005 and pretty much the remainder of the decade, for me personally. It was her new Chapter, working thru the trials & tribulations that life puts all of us thru (except our problems aren't plastered all over the tabloids & Internet, like theirs). It's evident in the lyrics, the musical arrangements, production and style of Vocal delivery. She was making a Clear Statement, I've Never Left & In Case Y'all Forgot or Doubted Me..., Lemme Remind You.
Mariah is my favorite & this album is straight fire! So funny you got a kick out of her cuss words here & there, she definitely became free with this record. You should check out the memoir she wrote in 2020 " The meaning of Mariah Carey " she lets loose with the words in there lol! Definitely gotta check out the remaining tracks from this album, " Dont forget about us " became her 17th #1 billboard hit & its actually my favorite from the entire album. Love the reaction!
1. So so lonely / my one & only 2. Circles 3. Mine Again 4. We Belong Together 5. Fly like A Bird Nobody writes lyrics like Mariah, the quality is that distinctive. And nobody can quite sing it like Mariah, often imitated never duplicated. The songs all have that unique combo of r&b with gospel, the hip hop with pop, the productions mixing live musical instrumentations and synthetic sounds, MC is always consistent album after album - truly an incomparable, visionary talent, her qualities are both modern & classic. ❤🎉😊
one of my favourite albums. Definitely in my top 5 of Mariah's albums - My top songs : 1) Fly Like a Bird 2) We Belong together (the Jadakiss remix - the remix made me a fan of the song) 3) Stay the night 4) Circles 5) Say Something' 6) It's like that
Oh you gotta find the ultra platinum version if it's available in the UK on whatever your streaming choice is. She went into the vault and added previously unreleased tracks to multiple albums. There's Don't forget about us, a we belong together remix, makin' it last all night, So lonely (one and only pt.II) and two tracks that were unreleased. Basically a whole extra half album on the ultra platinum edition.
I enjoy this reaction but having the video to We Belong Together gives identity to the song; a great impact and resolution. I hope you watch the videos as well. They are amazing!
I agree with u on the songs on this album 😊but fly like a bird and mine again hold a special place in my heart ( also love say something and circles) ❤️ i almost choke singing them 😅ok album list is hard cause for mariah depending on my mood or a long time I've heard songs it may change but 1.daydream ❤classic and its one of her favs 2.emotions 😍 it has all my ballads 3.butterfly ❤ 4.emancipation of mimi ❤ 5. Charmbarcelet 😊(sometimes it and butterfly can switch places and emotions can share places with music box 😢❤it makes me cry more and self reflect) 6. Caution ⚠️ 😅love it especially caution 😂and 8th grade the others follow but most of these can be changed except for 1&2 absolutely 💯 classic albums sing every song on them
Top 5 Mariah Albums. 1. Butterfly 2. Daydream 3. The Emancipation of Mimi 4. Emotions 5. Musicbox Stay the night is my favorite album track. We Belong Together is my favorite single.
The fact that this album did not win Album of the Year is the biggest indictment of the Grammys (unfun fact: the last Black woman to win Album of the Year was Lauryn Hill in 1999...tragic statistic)
Can you please react to We Belong Together/Fly Like a Bird live performance at the 48th Grammys? It's a phenomenal performance. (Mariah was robbed that year though, she should have won song and record of the year) TEOM is my third favourite Mariah album, behind Butterfly and Music Box. Top 3 songs from TEOM We Belong Together Stay the Night One and Only
please react more to little mix I subscribed, and I really want more little mix plz do a couple music videos, an duding by your sound which Is why I subscribed I think ud love thier LM% album its more RnB thankoyu, love from London
I'll be doing those over the next few weeks, mainly on Patreon. I don't do them with the album reaction as the video versions are sometimes different, sound quality can be less good and I can't get the lyrics up. I'll get to all the Mimi videos though, apparently they're all great!
How can you even like her? I don’t know, she had so much potential when she first started out, and a voice in the stratosphere. But the stuff is just pop. She hasn’t challenged her self in decades. Frankly, it’s just boring. So sorry, just my opinion. But it’s nice that you enjoy it so much.

For sure. It's her best CD in my opinion. Every tack was a banger. And it's so many.
I don’t think she gets enough credit for her songwriting

This album is timeless! Just now found out how much I love So Lonely the other day haha
So Lonely is such a bop fr.
Same here, so lonely and your girl has grown on me haha
Fly Like a Bird is one of my favourite MC songs ever because I literally cry whenever I listen to it. The Emancipation of MiMi is banger after banger. I remember listening to this album incessantly when it first came out. Top 3 MC album for me.

You knowww!
this is solid asf
Like your list. I would take off Caution. And replace it with Daydream.
This is her Magnum Opus. Circles is my favorite too. My other favorites come and go, but Circles has me, well.. going around in Circles over it.

Vocally speaking, some of her vocal cadence totally reminds of Michael Jackson when he was part of the Jackson 5. I love this album.
thanks for reacting to this
My fave is Fly like a bird, We. Belong together. The whole album is a masterpiece

Yess and the songs that didnt made it to the album, like misty moon and I feel it
My favourite song on this album is Stay the Night.
Agreed, amazing song!
4:08 lol at the low key Taylor shade. 😉
I enjoy this reaction but having the video to We Belong Together gives identity to the song; a great impact and resolution. I hope you watch the videos as well. They are amazing!
If you haven’t seen the Grammy performance of We Belong Together/Fly like a Bird it’s worth a watch!
Reacted to it on Patreon last week!
I feel it would have been the perfect encore for this album

Jhonny reaction to the gospel-inspired song: "F*cking hell!" 😂😂😂
What can I say? The spirit moved me!!!
Fly like a bird
I wish you knew
We belong together
Circle
Mine again
The fact that this album did not win Album of the Year is the biggest indictment of the Grammys (unfun fact: the last Black woman to win Album of the Year was Lauryn Hill in 1999...tragic statistic)
My favorite singer (other is Aaliyah) and her BEST album!
Great reaction!
Future considerations:
Jade - Everyday of the Week
Jade - Don't Walk Away
Karyn White - Superwoman
Brownstone - If You Love Me
I love Mine Again in this album, why they did not chose this AWESOME track as a single, we never know why.
It is great, but actually out of 14 songs just about all of them could be singles! My pick for "should've been a single" is Your Girl - killer song!
Can you please react to We Belong Together/Fly Like a Bird live performance at the 48th Grammys? It's a phenomenal performance. (Mariah was robbed that year though, she should have won song and record of the year)
TEOM is my third favourite Mariah album, behind Butterfly and Music Box.
Top 3 songs from TEOM
We Belong Together
Stay the Night
One and Only
This CD was a diamond, only good songs.
The emancipation of Mimi won album of the year in almost every music award ceremony but not in the grammys because they ROBBED Mariah one more time …
Maybe a weird question but can you tell us the headphones you are using?
I wasn’t a fan after her debut LP bcoz they were generic (boring) to me until this LP which was absolutely amazing. 😅
You just don’t have good taste
please react more to little mix I subscribed, and I really want more little mix plz do a couple music videos, an duding by your sound which Is why I subscribed I think ud love thier LM% album its more RnB thankoyu, love from London
why didn't you react to the music videos as well? many of the songs here had music videos like we belong together, say somethin, shake it off et.c
I'll be doing those over the next few weeks, mainly on Patreon. I don't do them with the album reaction as the video versions are sometimes different, sound quality can be less good and I can't get the lyrics up. I'll get to all the Mimi videos though, apparently they're all great!
Wheres joyride?
Hi is this a white soul channel?
What kind of stupid question is that? What "white" soul artists are you referring to? Mariah is not white.
@@Mr.Cnothing yeah I’m aware I know Jonny it was joke go drink some chamomile tea or something…..
@@strangerthings88 That was a joke? I thought jokes were supposed to be funny.
@@Mr.Cnothing it is to people that understand sarcasm and it was intended to make anyone laugh, but Jonny. Bye 👋🏼
How can you even like her? I don’t know, she had so much potential when she first started out, and a voice in the stratosphere. But the stuff is just pop. She hasn’t challenged her self in decades. Frankly, it’s just boring. So sorry, just my opinion. But it’s nice that you enjoy it so much.
This album is a masterpiece you’re out of your mind
You may be right, but that’s not very nice to say to me.
