Everything Fades Away didn't make the cut for the American Musicbox release, but it DID make the international versions in Europe, Asia and Australia etc. Why? Because Tommy Mottola (Mariah's husband and record label president at the time) thought the lyrics hit too close to home and didn't want the media to catch wind of there being any trouble in paradise. This was back when there was no internet and celebrity gossip didn't really travel across borders. The official excuse was that it was too r'n'b (!) just like Slipping Away, another song with the same theme, which also didn't make the Daydream album and only got released as a B-side to Always Be My Baby. That happened to a lot of Mariah's best songs in the mid-late 90's - sabotage by her own husband and the record label he was the president of. In 2000, Mariah finally had enough and went directly to the Japanese heads of SONY. She and her legal team renegotiated her contract and was released early from said contract even as she still owed them 1 album. She subsequently signed the BIGGEST recording contract EVER, with Virgin Records (her friend Janet Jackson's label at the time), with 100M. But Tommy still found ways to make Mariah's career a living hell by continuing to steal her musical ideas and intellectual property (for the Glitter soundtrack, just like he did #1's) and giving them to JLo*. It would only end in late 2002 when Mottola was fired unceremoniously for abuse of power over lucrative and successful Sony artists like Mariah, Michael Jackson and George Michael who all suffered under his reign. *That's the basic origin of "I Don't Know Her". OAN, You won't find EFA or Slipping Away on Spotify, even in Europe!
I think it's available in literally every other country's music Box release... I'm from South Africa and even we have the song... Honestly it's my fave song off Music Box... Literally listened to the album on repeat last week...
She posted a video recently of her singing Everything Fades Away with her background singers and singer Jojo who was invited backstage after she went to Mariah’s Vegas show. You should react to it. It’s so beautiful. 😭
Pleeeease react to Mariah''s Someday (live - 1993) I think you'll really enjoy that. Thank God I Found You (Make It Last Remix) And So Lonely (One & Only Part II)
You actually listened to us once again thanks bro! She’s been singing small snippets of these songs she’s rarely performed lately that’s why we recommended it. 🙏🏻
Can't believe I've just discovered this song!! Amazing in every way! Reminds me of how I feel when I hear PM Dawn do Set adrift on memory bliss too, I enjoyed your review too Jack 🎶💜
I've never heard this!!! I'm literally crying! My goodness, perfect reaction . The word ethereal is a perfect descriptor her layering, the way she floats above the music is at a worldly I don't have words it invokes such a powerful emotion
Fun fact: There has always been much debate to who the guy singing on this song is. Some say it's singer Will Downing. Some say it's her with her vocals pitched down by a machine. And some say it's Cory Rooney who also co-wrote & co-produced on other songs with her. Hopefully she will clarify for us one day 🤞
This song it's a hidden gem from Music Box, one of her greatest albums. I don't know why this Masterpiece didnt make the cut because it's just surreal, etereal, amazing!!!
I wished she sang this live, the unknown tracks( kinda) are sometimes the best ones of hers. I'm still mad that she didn't put in her new album 'Caution' the song "Runway" both versions. (mind you who only is available on the Japanese album)
Jack, thank you for reacting to EFAway-this is not just music, it's MAGIC!Please, react to the very similar and absolutely gorgeous "Till The End Of Time" and "All I've Ever Wanted" by Mariah- you will love those, I promise.And you are right- no one can do this like she can!
Mmmmh i feel her as well, that's why I will always say Mariah Carey for me is legend period this right here is number one. The background singer is Will Downing
Man, these 90’s recordings have a certain sound that I really, really miss. Music Box was her fourth album (Mariah Carey, Emotions, MTV Unplugged, and then Music Box) Those are all early 90’s, and since I know you’re a fan of, and really appreciate production, I think you’d like to listen to those first 4 albums. The sound is so live and so raw. Nooooo auto tune. And, btw, I really like your videos. I’m know you say you don’t know a lot about vocals and singing. DM me sometime, I’d love to give you some info on that! I also love seeing someone if your age discover a lot of these great 90’s divas. I’ve lived Maria since her first album. Anyway, keep up your passion for music. Thanks for sharing it with us!! - Jeremy
This is my era, so I'm showing my age. I bought a 45 single for a record player. Everything fades away was the b side of the single.I wore it out and it is one of my top five Mariah Carey songs of all times and it was crazy that it was never released. That along with Slipping Away and Melt Away. It's a shame because I think it would have given her 3 more number ones.
This song was originally supposed to be on her third album 1993 music box but it didn't make the cut in the u.s so it remains a mystery if she still has the demo
Baby doll, I I beg enough to you to listen to music box off the album music box, in fact listen to every track off that album. You will not be disappointed
hi I know it's akward to request for another reaction from artist specially when it's also a powerhouse belter while you are already into some powerhouse divas but still I wanna ask if you could consider reacting to some of our queens here in the Philippines such as the queen of queens in this country Miss Regine Velasquez(Asia's Songbird) and also Katrina Velarde (Asia's Vocal Supreme) Disclaimer: With all due respect to all the "LAMBS" I am also a Mariah fan since I was 12years old upto now, but i have other artists that I also love which are fellow Filipino artist so please bear with me if it happens to be requested here in one of Mariah's reaction video. I just love powerhouse belters and I just want them to be reacted by Jack so please don't get me wrong by my request there's nothing to prove here or compare for the three artists or anything. Thank you and Godbless to all of us and keep safe, hoping that this Pandemic ends as well.

Well said 👏👏

Sophia Darling Source for that being the reason?
@@jasonenglisbe9646 Could you be more specific as to what: "source" + "that" +"reason", you're referring to?
Sophia Darling What is the source that “EFA” was left off because of Tommy and the subject matter?
Jack at 7:05 The background vocal "woooo" is sung by Mariah !!!
Yea omg Manriah
He probably meant the bridge part.
She posted a video recently of her singing Everything Fades Away with her background singers and singer Jojo who was invited backstage after she went to Mariah’s Vegas show. You should react to it. It’s so beautiful. 😭
YES PLEASE!
Mariah is a genius in producing : background, answer, lead vocal, choir... Queen Mariah ❤👑❤
React to "All In Your Mind", "Prisoner", and "Till the End of Time"
Brenda Prisoner & Till the End of Time are so dope.
@@got2bjosh I agree
I love Prisoner
yess she ended m&m with Prisoner 😫
my favorites omg
You need to hear the whole album!!! Music Box is amazing, Now That I Know, I've Been Thinking About You, Never Forget You, All I've Ever Wanted
I agree with you. Jack you should react to the whole Music Box album
The man signing in the background solo is Will Downing.
Thank you been needing to know this forever ♡
Omg. I thought it was just Mariah’s voice lowered! (In the studio)
Slic Ric i thought it was luther vandross lol 😂
its Mark Cory Rooney, the producer of the song ...not Will Downing. Will Downing was a mainstream R&B artist; not a background vocalist.
Wasn't it Mariah's voice lowered?
All I ever wanted by Mariah is an amazing love song
Pleeeease react to Mariah''s Someday (live - 1993) I think you'll really enjoy that.
Thank God I Found You (Make It Last Remix)
And So Lonely (One & Only Part II)
Have to do slipping away do you think of me and runway her other unreleased songs
You should do "Through the Rain" next. One of her best ballads!
React a Mariah Carey - Bringuin' on the heartbreak
You actually listened to us once again thanks bro! She’s been singing small snippets of these songs she’s rarely performed lately that’s why we recommended it. 🙏🏻
I know I say this like every time, but please do If It's Over @ the 1992 Grammys, as well as her shadiest moments when you have the time!
If it's over 1992 LIVE!!! Plzzz
Man i been saying you need to do “the distance” from her Caution album and also “if it’s over” from the Grammy 1990.
In my top 10 favorite MC tracks of all time. That says a lot because I’m a die hard Lamb
Can't believe I've just discovered this song!! Amazing in every way! Reminds me of how I feel when I hear PM Dawn do Set adrift on memory bliss too, I enjoyed your review too Jack 🎶💜
Please react to the song and video for "Whenever You Call". Her best ballad. Goosebumps guaranteed!!! Please
Hey Jack, Please do “Make it Look Good” and/or “Dedicated” by Mariah :)
Ali Lumumba love both of those
I think you can listen You’re so cold by MC =)) the intro show off her 4 octaves range which is wider than any pop singers
Wow thank you for this, this was my first time hearing this song. she always sounds nice when she’s accompanied by a choir.
5:40 is my most favorite. Gives me goosebumps when she hits that note.
DO YOU THINK OF ME BY MARIAH CAREY
Mariah is a legend. Can you react to her song "There's got to be a way" and "All I ever wanted"
You want VOCALS????? Listen to All I've Ever Wanted or Lead The Way. PERIOD
This is definitely one of her absolute best songs. You´ll also love Till the End of Time and Looking In is just so beautiful.
I've never heard this!!! I'm literally crying! My goodness, perfect reaction . The word ethereal is a perfect descriptor her layering, the way she floats above the music is at a worldly I don't have words it invokes such a powerful emotion
React to "The Wind" off of the Emotions album. It has the same vibe as this song.
Yay :) thanx for reacting to this masterpiece! prisoner or music box next? have a good day!
Fun fact:
There has always been much debate to who the guy singing on this song is. Some say it's singer Will Downing. Some say it's her with her vocals pitched down by a machine. And some say it's Cory Rooney who also co-wrote & co-produced on other songs with her. Hopefully she will clarify for us one day 🤞
that's so amazing because to me it sounded like it was just mariah pitched down
Riccardo Atherton I always thought the same!
i think it is luther?
@@theraritiesera5139
Naw, I'm a HUGE luther fan as well and that's definitely not him
its mariah. her voice can go really deep.
This song is such a masterpiece love it, this song makes me feel like I am floating on clouds 💯🙌💕💕💕💕
This song it's a hidden gem from Music Box, one of her greatest albums. I don't know why this Masterpiece didnt make the cut because it's just surreal, etereal, amazing!!!

Can you please react to If We by Mariah Carey ft. Ja rule.

Great reaction jack
You should react to alone in love
React to Do You Think Of Me by Mariah
She just did an ACAPELLA VERSION of this on her UA-cam Video Channel. Check it if you have time, her voice doesn't change that much🤗❤
SIR... IM BEGGING!! PLS REACT OT MARIAHS I WANNA KNOW WHAT LOVE IS COVER.. LOVE AT AMERICAN IDOL!!! PLS SIR..❤️❤️
You should listen to her song called The Wind. It’s a beautiful song with a jazz element. Till The End Of Time is another good one too.
In 90' Mariah get it all alone...
She wrote, produce, sing, back up singer in harmonize, lead choir🥰
She incredible 😍
Mariah is a lyrical and vocal genius. She just knows how to add her background vocals and it just blends so well. Idk how she does it.
It’s my third fave song from Mariah. It’s VERY haunting
This is my era, so I'm showing my age. I bought a 45 single for a record player. Everything fades away was the b side of the single.I wore it out and it is one of my top five Mariah Carey songs of all times and it was crazy that it was never released. That along with Slipping Away and Melt Away. It's a shame because I think it would have given her 3 more number ones.
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
That’s true, her voice really sounds so expensive ❤️
Definitely should listen to Mariah's:
Band Intro at Zurich from her Charmbracelet tour
Sweetheart music video
If you enjoyed this, I'm sure you would definitely enjoy Do You Think of Me also by Mariah. Regardless, great work as always!
Pls do more live of mariah plss🥺
Please react to I Stay In Love by Mariah 🔥
She and Walter Afanasieff produced beautiful love songs. But not anymore.😞
This song was originally supposed to be on her third album 1993 music box but it didn't make the cut in the u.s so it remains a mystery if she still has the demo
You can just hear the sorrow in her voice. I love this song. Thanks for listening ♥️ Do my saving grace next on oprah show or BET award show
React to All I ever wanted ! You'll like it !
Awww thank you, only just seeing this. One of my favourites❤
this is a complete masterpiece!!!!! Im in shock
Baby doll, I I beg enough to you to listen to music box off the album music box, in fact listen to every track off that album. You will not be disappointed
Will Downing in the mix there. Classic song, Mariah at her very best 👌❤
Get her album The Rarities that album will have this song and Slipping Away it will sound better with headphones
hi I know it's akward to request for another reaction from artist specially when it's also a powerhouse belter while you are already into some powerhouse divas but still I wanna ask if you could consider reacting to some of our queens here in the Philippines such as the queen of queens in this country Miss Regine Velasquez(Asia's Songbird) and also Katrina Velarde (Asia's Vocal Supreme)
Disclaimer: With all due respect to all the "LAMBS" I am also a Mariah fan since I was 12years old upto now, but i have other artists that I also love which are fellow Filipino artist so please bear with me if it happens to be requested here in one of Mariah's reaction video. I just love powerhouse belters and I just want them to be reacted by Jack so please don't get me wrong by my request there's nothing to prove here or compare for the three artists or anything. Thank you and Godbless to all of us and keep safe, hoping that this Pandemic ends as well.
happy 6k subscribers Jack! ❤
Boy (I Need You) by Mariah Carey pleaseeee, I really loved the vibe of this one.
Mariah Carey voice is like every musical instrument rolled in to one. It couldn't make sense and it shouldn't make sense.
React to this Mariah- never forget you
ua-cam.com/video/tOmgjpGYJ0w/v-deo.html
