New Song: Mariah Carey – ‘Angels Cry (ft. Ne-Yo)’

Published: Wednesday 6th Jan 2010 by Trent

The lead single from Mariah Carey’s highly anticipated ‘Angels Advocate’ remix LP has finally surfaced. The ‘Angels Cry (Remix)’, which was supposed to have impacted radio on January 4th, features R&B crooner Ne-Yo. ‘Angels Advocate’ hits stores on February 23rd.

Although the track features identical productions to the original, Ne-Yo weaved his vocals and lyrics expertly into the arrangement and actually enhanced the already brilliant song. However, I would be lying if I said that I was not expecting them to recompose the entire track. As two of the industry’s premier songwriters, they had the opportunity to create some epic material. Either way, having had the experience of working with each other on this song, it would be interesting to hear what they might come up with in future ventures. Good stuff.

Hit or Miss?

    I think its a hit. I really like the addition of Neyo to this song. Winner Winner. They are also redoing vocals for the Jumpsmokers Remix so this is gonna be great.

    I’m like the addition of Shaffer to the track his lyrics and voice compliment the track. I also liked the original so far off to a great start .

  8. number1k9 January 6, 2010

    You are write(pun)! They are both writers and should have recomposed a hot duet together. I liked “Angels Cry,” from ‘Memoirs’ thought it was the best song from the album. One of the few good songs!

    I still prefer the original version.

    hmm it’s ok but i don’t see this burning up the charts- sounds like a one sweet day rethread.

  14. Sammy January 6, 2010

    Sorry b**** but Cassie has taken your crown. This will flop….while Skydiver, link below, will slay world wide.

    Move over b****, there a new Queen and voice of RnB Soul.

    Check ‘Electro Love’ out this year. Gonna go platinum…unlike ‘Memoris Of A Flop’

    I love the Memoirs album, and Angels Cry is my favorite track on the CD. Ne-yo who I also like ruined the song for me. Mariah’s vocals were pure, and the delivery was emotionally charged. It gives me chills. This new version just makes me wish I was listening the first version. I’m still going to support Mimi cause she is a REAL talent, but this song in particular gets a capitol “F”!

  16. G.U.S January 6, 2010

    i think it’s a new song that “thank god I found you (make it last remix)”…. but it’s good. It’s #1 hit yes or… yes!!!!!

  17. Yamaha January 6, 2010

    she’s has been …

  18. candy bling January 6, 2010

    How is Mariah a has been? stop talking crap

  19. S*** January 6, 2010

    Lame, LMAO @ Neyo shittin on her on her own dame song- thats gotta hurt. Time to go back to the drawing board Mimi, Jump off the train of Mediocrity & jump on the train of superiority with the Queen Bey.

    Seriously Mimi has a lot of maturing to do both in & outside the Studio, Seriously Mariah your pushing 40 & this is the best you can come out with?? I dont know which album was worst last years Memoirs or Graffiti… FLOP

  21. S*** January 6, 2010

    oops

  22. candy bling January 6, 2010

    ^ you are dumb.

  23. January 6, 2010

    LMAO @ Sammy.
    Yeah, boo, Cassie is shittin’ on all these h***.
    That’s why “Electro Love” was a huge multiplatinum success…oh wait.

    “However, I would be lying if I said that I was not expecting them to recompose the entire track. ”

    I’d be lying if I said I didn’t agree. It’s a beautiful song. I don’t see it being a hit, though. What I love about MC is her remixes were always so creative and well thought out; they were original and didn’t just slap somebody on the track. I’m ready for the album, but I hope most of ’em are re-written. Stuff like this seems lazy.

  24. Sammy January 6, 2010

    @…

    When Electro Love does drop it will be a multi-platinum success…unlike Flopiah

    Cassie will be shittin on all these other RnB c****. Mark my words b****.

  25. MT January 6, 2010

    I’m so indifferent to this remix. I love the original, and still play it daily in my car… but I feel like Ne-Yo just couldn’t keep up with Mariah in this song. Especially at the belting at the end… he was an annoying whisper underlying her voice.

    Ehhhh

  26. Greg January 6, 2010

    ok i was thinkin about sumthin will the reprises and interludes be remixed or will they be excluded from the album

  27. TRUTH January 6, 2010

    Garbage! It’s all that whispering s*** going on – again!! Mariah is an alcoholic. She was a total train at the Palm Springs film fest AND People Choice Awards tonite. Wow, she was drunk and had to be helped onstage by her boy toy Mr Nick Carey. She was fat and overflowing in that gown. Shame!! Eminem was right about her being an alcoholic.

  28. FiercerMC January 6, 2010

    It’s a good song to begin with
    now, it’s spells brilliance

  29. SOOS January 7, 2010

    Love it! :))

    The original is better, but they did good stuff on this. :))

  30. Fat, drunk, and ugly January 7, 2010

    That b**** is busted and drunk, s\it down fatass Flopiah!

  31. Fat, drunk, and ugly January 7, 2010

    That b**** is busted and drunk, sit down fatass Flopiah!

  32. TATA January 8, 2010

    I LOVE this song! Mariah Carey has won best female R&B artist in the People’s Choice awards for YEARS in a row now!..Of course she will have haters and people that don’t like her but that is each individuals right! I personally love her work and think adding Ne-Yo was a bonus! They are both AWESOME artist! Angel’s Cry was one of my favorite tracks of the Memoirs CD so this just adds to another great track!

  33. Take a rest, Fatso February 10, 2010

    Desperation of Mimi 2

    (enough of disocunted rapper..your prime is a done deal) 🙁

  34. Flop Forever February 10, 2010

  35. CEBO MBAMBO March 30, 2010
