    Mariah Carey having nothing growing up and then became famous, and now she can afford anything. Still, she is so humble / down to Earth and i have heard she gives to Charities which most people dont know. All these years she is so Grateful to her fans, to her team & to God. What a Queen...

    My fav original Mariah Careys christmas song is Christmas time is in the air (again). It's a very classy song, romantic, delicate... I don't know why she doesnt sing it, it's not even overly complicated (like some of her other songs, tbh). It's not even known that much and it should be, it has the vibe of a classic type of song that could be a soft kind of hit. Please, Mimi, bring it back!
