It’s here!
Mariah Carey‘s hotly anticipated new single ‘#Beautiful’ was unwrapped moments ago.
The official lead single from the diva’s fourteenth studio album, the mid-tempo features R&B crooner Miguel.
With the red carpet treatment being rolled out for the cut (see: Clear Channel radio deal and huge TV promotion), does the song itself deserve it? You decide after the jump…
Stunning.
Crafted with radio in mind, ‘Beautiful’ really is just what the Dr ordered for the icon- ‘catchy’ and contemporary enough to win over the casual listener, and authentically ‘Mariah’ enough to appease her core base.
Armed with the gem that is Miguel’s voice and a romanticism that makes it one of her best love songs to date, its sing-along melody, harnessed vocals and heartfelt lyrics have us desperate to hear the rest of the album, and itching to see just how it fares on the Billboard Hot 100 when its promo campaign is put in place.
Basically….we’re in love with it and feel passionately enough about it to see those Grammy nominations stacking up with every second it plays.
*Look out for the ‘#Beautiful’ video (directed by Joseph Kahn) on American Idol this Wednesday on FOX.
YASSSSSSSS!!!
Oh f****** yes. Thank you for putting this up so fast Sam.
Miss Mariah girl, this song is all that and more! I can’t even hate on you today. I just can’t.
Mariah sister! I want to hate on you but I can’t today because this song is everything! I’m not even dealing right now.
I just got paid $6784 working off my laptop this month. I was shocked when my neighbor told me she was averaging $95 p/h, and she convinced me to try. I can’t believe how easy it was once I tried it out. The potential with this is endless. This is what I do, Rich4.Com_
HER VOICE IS OVER!! ITS TIME FOR HER TO RETIRE!!!
JLo – I’m Glad is better
Nivea, SHHHHHHHHHHHHH.
You have nothing important to say, so SHHHHHHHH.

19 #1 HERE WE GOOO
I LOVE LOVE LOVE..it sounds soo freshh i love how mariah is keeping up with the times #BEAUTIFUL- for reals
Ok. I understand you like it but this isn’t “FRESH” lmao Miguel is known to nod to the 60s and thats what this sounds like. have u ever heard of Motown? This almost sounds like a sample…
well obviously i didn’t mean fresh as in never heard the sound before-every song that comes out now will be influenced from earlier music..and yes I have heard of motown have you heard of common sense lmao.
because if u did have common sense you would interpret ‘fresh’ in other ways such as re-inventing the sound of her music compare to emancipation of mimi, memoirs of an imperfect angel etc.
Classic Mariah! She always manages to keep up with the times! I love it!
I think it needs a couple more spins for me to get into it properly, but its a nice song nonetheless. Sounds much better than Jlos mess.
No way this is better than JLo’s. Based on that short snippet I heard while they were shooting the music video, I loved it. I am not a fan for both Jennifer and Mariah, but I have to admit that song will slay, she is smart and knows what she’s doing.
TO BE REALLY HONEST I DIDN’T LIKE IT THE FIRST LISTEN, SO I’M NOT SUPRISED IF YALL DON’T LIKE IT TOO
THEREFORE YOU NEED TO LISTEN TO IT A COUPLE OF TIME!!!
IT’S A SMASH
HIT
19 #1 HERE WE GOOOOOOOOOOOOO OMGGG
QUEEN MARIAH>>>>>> YOUR FAVE
but i would have loved for her to sing more ! like what’s up with u mimi ???? are u afraid to sing or something….
Her biggest criticism has been that she is OVER SINGING to much which is insane because those same people say she has lost her voice. She just cannot lose from winning so I quit critiquing bc Mariah knows what the hell she is doing! 23 years in the game. Let her be creative! She does a lot of layering and background vocals and I guess she realizes that this generation is dumb as hell LOL. so LESS is more now-a-days!
Anyway, I LOVE THIS SONG!!!! This has stole my heart 🙂
THE WHISTLES AT THE END OMGGGGGGGGGGG
YASSS! Did you hear her do that LAST whistle run as the song is fading? She is not slick. She does the most amazing stuff in the last 3 seconds of songs.
well we all no this is the real buz single mariah never comes out with her best song first SO MARIAH BETTER SINGGGG THAT VOICE IS POPINGGGGGGGGG.
So much better than “triumphant” – that had too many things going on.
*Buys on iTunes*
YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASSSSSSSsssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss
Omg I’m dying Queen Mariah legendary you just gave me life. I’ve grew to love Miguel never liked him but now 🙂 🙂
Its alright its kinda boring but it probably just has to grow on me
Lmao. I’ve listened to it like 10 times. IT WILL GROW ON YOU.
YESS! I’m on my 100,000,000th spin! This will be my pool party jam no doubt.
Im really not here for this flop s*** it put me to sleep.
go suck Nicki’s d*** then.
#beautiful
Hmmmmm torn. I do like this song .. Good production and Miguel was a smart move. Vocals speak for themselves obviously.
But I can’t help feel a bit surprised by this being a single choice .. Much less a LEAD single choice.
Nevertheless, I am so so so so glad that MC has taken this route musically. So much more suitable for her and much easier to respect her as a current artist when she isn’t trying to force a young hip hop sound.
Kudos, I am intrigued to hear more from this project.
F****** YEeeeeesssssss m************! This sounds so nice and like no other single she´s ever released. The power of true greats huns 🙂
Itunes Release PLEASE! 19 #1s
This will flop like triumphant n almost home
no one with the last name “Barb” should be talking about flopping… Have several!
I was so worried about it being Miguel ft Mariah and it is because he sings most part but it is reminiscent of Whenever You Call; it is beautiful regardless.
I’m happy with what I hear but I want a solo effort next.
This is a very weak first single
SUPER WEAK
Cute song as in album filler, weak first single.
NOW THIS IS QUALITY RNB MUSIC
AMAZING
This is HOT!!!! I feel like it’s been forever since we’ve had a REAL DUET and these two have just done it! Their voices almost melt together….it’s got such a smooth vibe to it. The control in MC’s voice is just insane.
We have been #Slayed
YES! Mariah…You are #beautiful. Love it.
BORING!!!! TRY AGAIN? Naaaah JUST HANG IT UP!
SSSSHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
Sweetie, just SSSSHHHHHHHHHHH.
eYAAAAAAASSSSSSSSS!!!!!
Xtina Beautiful or this one? Which one
Beautiful this is boring
Xtina ofc. That song is iconic, this one is another R&B generic song that will be forgotten in 2 months.
Zzzzzzzzzzzzz
Now wait! Is this, Mariah ft Miguel or Miguel ft Mariah? Or she just wants to rely on Miguel in this whole song to make it a hit? Pathetic!!!!
Either way, the song will flop, no way on earth this song will compete with the other current and upcoming songs this year, but with all these radio banners and deals, it can be a moderate hit, if not then her career is officially over.
Miguel should have save this for his next album,because this is Miguel featuring Mariah. WTF did Mariah do on this song? really
This is the same mistake she did with triumphant shes featured in her own song! didnt she learn from the calamity of triumphant! i dont see this being a complete flop but its not a number one material quality sorry she has so muchhhh talent but yet shes featured in her own song disappointed on you mariah!
She’s taken the lead for 23 years. She grew up in a time where artists made beautiful music together (Ashford/Simpson, Marvin Gaye/Tammy Wynette,etc.) & didn’t think twice about politics. They just wanted to excite music fans AND that’s what Mimi is doing here! They sing equally too so I don’t understand everyone’s beef.
I liked it!
I’ve only heard like 3 songs from his last album (Adorn, DLB and HMD) but I’m more curious to listen to the rest of it now.
Good job . . 😀
slayed my lace-front off tbh yasss i needed that this morning.
“Oh how you thrill me” Loooooove this song
Why is the britney stan so negative. Chile take a seat basic b****. I love Britney don’t spoil this for the lambs with your negativity
This is not a mainstream song at all, and it doesn’t even sound like her own song, why wasting all this time, promo and money for a flop song like this? Yes I call flop because it’s obvious it will. End of story.
& BodyParty holds on to its crown as best R&B song of 2013 so far. U got me next single right, MiMi???
Y’ALL NEED TO HAVE SSSSEVERAL SEATS.
THIS SMELLS ONLY ONE THING: FLOP, & YOU WILL DEAL !
MIGUELA NEEDS TO BOW THE FCK DOWN IN HER CLOSET, THAT GIRL CANT SING & GRAN’MARIAH FLOPREY, GIIIRL THAT WACK ASS MELODY WON’T PAY YO BILLS !
A brandy Stan calling someone a flop? HA!!! Worry about your fave who hasn’t been relevant in in 12 years…..
Nice sound—-checked
Crossover appeal—–checked
Talented artists—–checked
People can sing a long to it—-checked
Subtle vocal showings—-checked
Feels short cos it sounds so good— checked
Change of direction—- checked
Still staying true to her roots—- checked
This is what hits like We Belong Together are made of huns 🙂
CHEAP-ASS ARTWORK—– CHECKED
WOLD WAS SO READY FO DIS IN 2001 !
please do not come for Mariah when you favorite is Brandy!!!
Mariah Carey WTF was that! I need a song with you and you only with belting notes and great lyrics and great hooks. This s*** is the weakest lead single ever. Even weaker than “Obsessed”. Imma still buy the album but gurl please dont end your legendary career like WHITNEY F****** HOUSTON did if you aint got it no more just retire with class. You are a legend but this s*** is weak im sorry! I NEED SOMETHING STRONG!!! LIKE FANTASY, WE BELONG TOGETHER, HELL I’d even take TOUCH MY BODY. Sorry to say this will flop. I just cant believe this is the same woman that sang and I mean SANGED songs like “ANYTIME YOU NEED A FRIEND”, “EMOTIONS”, ALL I WANT FOR CHRISTMAS IS YOU”, “ONE SWEET DAY”, “WITHOUT YOU”, “FLY LIKE A BIRD”. Gosh I hate when this part of legends career comes around. Michael Jackson, Whitney Houston & now Mimi is about to have her retiring years ughhh mimi please dont leave, this s*** is weak. ugh soo mad right now! I guess everyone has thier momments and hers is comming to an end, just like Michaels & Whitneys. I HOPE THE LAMBS SUPPORT THIS CAUSE…. I can’t!
Hold on to your wigs b****** cos Mariah is about to have her millionth no.1 and hold on to that world record!!!! This song is BEAUTIFUL!!!
I don’t understand why someone else is singing the first minute & a half in her first single & it’s so short. I doubt this will be a worldwide smash, but it’ll probably do well in the US because of payola, but I still highly doubt it though with this kind of “ok” songs.
this is a DUET, Miguel is not just a “feature.
Y’all are too used to 10 second features and calling it a collab.
Mariah slayed this.
Not a good excuse, even if it was a duet as you claim now, she should have sung more than this. Big fail!
they sing equally enough yall b****** act like she never sang a second verse -_- have several chile _/_/_/_/_/_/
you could fool me ,but mariah sound like she’s the feature
SMASHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
HITTTT
19 #1
Hahaha the song hasn’t even been out for an hour and it’s already LITE up the internet haha. Mariah and “#beautiful” are trending worldwide!!!! MC’s on to another smash!!!! Kudos to you mama! 🙂
I have to tell you something y’all.
This song is already the worst/biggest flop songs of the year.
Take care.
YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAS !
THIS AIN’T NO HIT, BUT MORE SOME CRAPPY MEXICAN MUSIC ! GO BACK IN THE STUDIO MARIAH !
100% right!!!!
Smooth. Summery. Sweet. S***. Refreshing. Pop kind of R&B. And God, those harmonized riffs and runs! The Philippines loves it =)
SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERVE
This is the direction i wanted her to take since DON’T FORGET ABOUT US…Mature,amazing vocals,beautiful singing,soulful..her best LEAD single since HEARTBREAKER
It’s nothing special, cute song, but just because it is Mariah Carey people will say it slays, it’s amazing. Another generic R&B song, nothing more.
Damn, after listening to this mess, Triumphant and the other song, (I don’t remember the name) sound even better now. What a joke!
why don’t all of you gather round in a circle & blow each other?
THE SONG IS FREAKIN #BEAUTIFUL!!!!
SLAYRIAH (In my Patti Labelle Voice)!!!!
Yasssss!! She really slayed. I wish it was longer.
Follow me on Instagram – @definite2
that song is beautiful!! her powerful voice, his amazing voice, the guitar!! eargasm!!! MARIAH is back!
Why are dumbass 14 y. olds comin up in here to hate? Go to school b******! The song is great!
I like this s*** a lot. Just wish that it was presented to us as a solid duet without Mariah Carey ft. Miguel because their parts are equal and it doesn’t feel like she is featuring him. Hope it does well.
OH HOW YOU THRILL ME WITH YOUR VOCALS MARIAH AND MIGUEL! AMAZING SONG. NOT OVER THE TOP WITH HIGH BELTING. JUST REGULAR MID TEMPO SONG! I CAN SEE MYSELF ON THE BEACH IN CALIFORNIA JAMMING TO THIS. AMEN
Song is alright. Not amazing, and her other lead singles are far much better. Also is it me or does Mariah seem more like the feature? It’s your single why have Miguel lead the song.
Oh haters…..why people saying it sounds like Miguel ft. Mariah? They both have a verse. The song is cute. What did people want? A movement song? No, its simply #beautiful
Take it for what it is, a cute track
…………………….
That’s it?
As a long, Long, LONG suffering Mariah fan from yesteryear, to me this is just the continuation of Triumphant-Almost Home-Beautiful. Triumphant was dated straight out of 2004 with Mimi featured on her own song. Then Almost Home was autotuned for life and sounded like the B-side of “Diamonds.” Now we have this new song that reaches HARD to sound like it’s already a classic but it’s a deadpan ass snooze of a song that just sits there and goes nowhere and Mariah STILL sounds featured. Why is Miguel’s verse first? WHY? I’m over it. The song is missing SEVERAL things and just goes on and on and ends with me thinking ‘that’s it.’ Mariah better come better than this. Mariah doesn’t know what her sound is anymore. Triumphant was 2005, Almost Home was 2011, and now this is 197whatever. Sigh. WHAT. ever with this song I’m already over it. It’s not a hit. It WON’T smash. And will be lucky to make a dent in the charts. SMH
It is such a pretty summer song, she needs to do a track with 2 chains to keep her R&B fans
does nothing for me!
you stans are SO FUNNY WHEN BEYONCE SANG WITH LUTHER HE SANG FIRST WHEN MARIAH SANG WITH LUTHER HE SANG FIRST WHEN MARIAH SANG WITH BOYS TO MEN THEY STARTED THE SONG FIRST SO FOOL WHAT IS YOUR POIT CALL MARIAH A FT CAUSE SHE SANG THE SECOND VERS MAN PEOPLE ARE SO FUNNY……..
add brian mcknight to the list as well..people acting like she’s never sang the second verse in her duets
Exactly people on this site are hilarious.. Some of them should do thier research before they start typing with stubly thumbs. Mariah been doing 2nd verses on features since she started so all those haters need to have several _/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/
ill tell you something this is already the biggest flop of 2013 this is worse than triumphant
chile get your life. It’s simple and catchy which is what is winning right now. I didnt really like triumphant too much but i still brought it but this is better than triumphant so dont even play yourself honey.
Mariah has got some serious pipes on her, I just wish she could go back to the Vision of Love days when she shined the most.
Anyway this was OK, I prefer this WITHOUT Miguelisha, she should have put Frank Ocean on this, or Bruno Mars. I’m sure it’ll grow on me, as of right now I think it’s just ok.
i really like miguel on this song btw
Not Miguelisha tho!!! LMAO!
her riding his coat tails does seem a bit too obvious, but her vocals were gorgeous
LOLOL girl so pressed. No one forced Miguel to agree to duet. Could it be because maybe he recognizes that she is a legend and musical genius??
I recognize that as well…i LOVE mARIAH….and not mad at her for riding his coat tails….u will deal
sip on some Prep H and soothe that sore spirit. legends don’t ride. they grant you the privilege of doing some of the driving.
It’s a big surprise! it’s a hit she is a diva she is the reinvention marvellous!!!! Everybody buy in itunes make it #1 i ‘ve got it!
It’s cute, fun and catchy…and Miguel adds the extra S** that the song needs lol. I think it’ll be a hit since the chorus is so repetitive and airy. Great job Miguel and Mimi!
ThIS IS WHAT IM TALKING ABOUT!!!
It’s got everything that is classic Mariah AND everything that is so
2013 and everything 2013 needs to be!!
Basically it’s a smash!! 19th #1 here we come!!
Likica is right its another RnB generic song. Its not going to be a massive heat like Hero etc
Hero was 20 years ago! Get over it
These type of reasonings kill me. Typical from @likica
Likica is right its another RnB generic song. Its not going to be a massive hit like Hero etc
FLOP FLOP FLOP… This song is a snooze fest. Mariah has lost her youthful voice and she’s done. When Miguel sounds better than Mariah you know it’s over for her. BYE BYE BEW BEW!
Honey child, you need to have several seats. Mariah’s voice is untouched by many of today’s p*ssy poppin artists (see: rihanna, ciara and nicki minaj) Even if she had half the voice she used to, she could out sing all these radio h**’z. The song is amazing, catchy and different from all the digitalized pop music on the radio right now. This is what the career doctor ordered and it’s working. #STAYPRESSED
oh my GOD.this song gets even better with each listen…i’ve just downloaded my copy
Totally! It gets better and better. I loved at first listen anyway though
Press play or shut the f*** up, this is THE voice.
#the whitsle register at the end POW POW!
Beyonce needs to bow down with that “Grown Flop” crap.
I do like this and I’m pretty sure it will creep into the subconscious like a lot of Mariah’s well-received work does. What I do know is that this will appeal to the older generation who still buy physical recordings, as it is reminiscent of a more mature 70’s-esque era of soul. This washes over the ear rather than assaults it, which is a welcome break in itself. I agree that she does sound like a feature on her own song, hence it should really say ‘& Miguel’ rather than ‘Ft. Miguel’ but their voices really do complement each other and I think she delivers (that run at 2:52 sweet Jheeez!). IMhO it just needs a Mariah only breakdown a la ‘JoyRide’ at the mid-point to really push it into CLASSIC-territory.
Lol you fools don’t even know what a generic R&B song sounds like. This song is funky, fresh and fun. A generic R&B song would be Trey Songz music.
what the f***? Generic rnb song is Trey Songz? lol
A generic (shared by, including or typical of a whole group of things; not specific)…,….which means generic rnb can be as genetic as per person. that Trey songs seems generic rnb to you but to some of us generic rnb would be Stevie Wonder, Boys II men, Amita Baker, Toni Braxton NOT Trey Song
Lmfao everyone you named is CLASSIC R&B. you are a complete and total idiot. Next!
Stevie Wonder, Boys II men, Amita Baker and Toni Braxton are generic R&B??????? Chileeeeeee………
Go re-evaluate ur life!!
I LOVE THIS SONG !!!!!! Mariah is back already number 56 in the USA #1 in the Philipines. Migue and Mariah sound so good together
i stand corrected #30 now in the US she is moving on up Yess MIMI !!! She is slayying
#11 now honey 🙂
WOOOWWW AMAZING !!!!!!!!!!
The song is AMAAAAZING! Yess Mimi,thank u!
I like it. I don’t LOVE it…but Hopefully it’ll grow on me.
I like it but the song is too short, plus Mariah sounds like she’s featuring on her own song!
she doesnt sound like she is being featured honey. She simply has the second verse. She been doing this since luther van dross and boys2men singles even with whitney and brian McKnight she had the second verse in the song. You act like she never sang a second verse before.
Let these children know! Duet means blending, harmonies, synergy, etc. Not who goes first/second/eighth whatever..
I love it.
Ms. Carey is my everything!!!
😉
Faab song. Romantic and classy. Dont Care if its no no. 1!
wtf Mariah!?!
This is a straight up Miguel leftover. This is the best you got? ill pass
Ummm cute looool
This song is cute for the summer lovers. I’m here for it.
loved it
I love Mariah, but she over sang, when the song clearly requires finesse, this song required her to be tender, vulnerable and sing a littler lower in her register to make it more romantic and match Miguel’s vocal sexiness, its still a good though.
Feel good song! I love it!! Summer has officially started!
I think the track is very good, but is this the new MARIAH single? It seems more a MIGUEL FEAT. Mariah song. The diva vocals appears half track late. Anyway, it’s good, and different style from her, which good, coz her last songs were composed as in a automatic pilot mode.
Miguel sounds so S***… Makes me forget he is 4ft tall, 110lbs and has a perm.
I see this getting massive airplay this summer.
I’m not crazy about it but it’s an ok song, i like the fact that it has an Indie/Country’s vibe, it’s not 100% R&B, however this is more a Miguel song, Mariah barely sings in the song, it’s like she is doing the background vocals, at least is not generic.
You´re wrong in one thing though. Both share the same singing time. It´s a duet, not a feature, yes, but not what you are trying to imply. Nice try though lol Like the fact you approve overall
its great song, i mean shes Mariah she can do what ever she wants, shes that Big that she doesnt even have to sing her own songs hahahah. now catch that!talk about superstar!
I like it, SOUNDS MORE LIKE MIGUELS song than MARIAH, BUT I LIKE IT!
THE SONG IS BORING MARIAH HANG IT UP OR IF YOU WANT HIT SONGS COME TO ME I WILL WRITE YOU HIT SONGS LIKE MY BANGER SONG THE GAME IAM VERY TALENTED FOR writing hit music and i dont understand label anymore s***** songs like this one will get massive airplay and great exposure when my song is struggling to find Producer and god knows this one will make the planet dance like CRAZY:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xIfhs5yAfGs
Love this! I was disappointed with “Triumphant” but liked “Almost Home.” This sounds great. Clean vocal, no fuss, with a great summer vibe 😀
On repeat …. I love it, perfect summer duet #RealMusic #Beautiful
My Rating after the First Listen : 4/5
it should have been the first proper lead single!!!
the (-1) is because :
– I wanted it to be 75% MC and the rest is Miguel. not her to be featured in her own Song.(-0,25)
– I wanted to hear more Vocals from her , like i wanted her to shine MORE, the fact she started to Shine at the end of the song…… 🙄 (-0,25)
– I wanted it to Be LONGER , so all I’m asking for is a regular EP containing the SOLO version and The extended version of this Song “A La IT’S LIKE THAT” , or maybe a Remix With Someone Else beside Miguel “A la I STILL BELIEVE” (-0,25)
– It is Strictly (R&B) !!! , so It will be Relevant mainly in the URBAN charts. (-0,25)
anyway , i love it , I just wanted it to be perfect !! 😀
Grrrl you are doing too much. It’s a 2.5/5 at best
I like that it doesn’t hit me over the head with a lot of gimmicks. I don’t know if it should be a single, but it’s very comfortable and easy to listen to.
Classic!!!! I love it!!!! Glad to see all the positivity about this joint too!!! Hope the rumors are true about her performing it on idol. Cant wait!
I don’t know….I was expecting something different, and just maybe it might grow on me…I don’t think this is a smash, but good for the album i suppose…I still love MIMI will see i might be wrong idk..
I agree 100% Its nice, but no the epic sound I was expecting. I sounds like shes just coasting it…But she still my Queen. lol
Remember when she could get a hit on her own?
Jk I barely do either, it’s been over a decade.
I mean…It was alright. Def not a comeback single but whatever…
omg jlo please slay this b****’s life already
I LIKE IT, NOT AS A FIRST SINGLE BUT I DEFINITELY LIKE THE SONG. I ONLY WISH MARIAH COULD HAVE ANG MORE THATS ALL. THE SONG HAS THIS REALLY NICE FEEL GOOD VIBE. I CAN PICTURE SOMEONE DRIVING IN THEIR CAR DURING SUMMER(ROOF DOWN); WITH THE SONG ON THE STEREO’S BLASTING AS THEY’RE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AS THE SUN SETS. THATS JUST HOW I IMAGINED IT LMAO. BUT ANYWAYS THESE TWO HAVE GREAT CHEMISTRY.
THe album cover is pissing me off though…Mariah no durrrlling!
Every single review is being so positive. Radio hit is coming. A few stans commenting late on this post are so desperate. Like they are just a couple of JLo and Xtina stans LOL
That’s for me, well, i tell you, i say what i think of the song, i didn’t say anything bad and reviews are not important to me, most of the time are wrong, do you really think i’m desperate to Mariah to flop, i wish her luck, i’m not like other people, you should know that by now.
It wasn´t for you in this case. It really wasn´t. You tried it though lol But when I wrote this comment I wasn´t thinking of you. You are a common presence here and your comment made sense coming from you 🙂
I even like the song despite the fact that Miguelina is in there.

Since you brought reviews, according to music critics Rihanna’s albums are better and you call her music trash and generic. Hm, interesting…
I am not saying that they are, it depends on a personal taste. But just because Mariah is one of the grestest singers/songwriters it doesn’t mean that her music is so good.
Her new song is cute but nothing special, sounds like every other R&B song. No one is pressed, people just have different tastes, that’s all.
Can you shut up for once please? Always bringing random things that doesn´t make sense. Rihanna´s music is made for her, Mariah makes hers. Nobody takes Rihanna seriously, Mariah is legendary in music. That´s pretty much it. You are the most annoying girl that ever graced this site seriously. Love ya lol
Thanks honey, yo te quiero a ti tambien ^^
I wish you would stop saying that this song sounds like every other R&B song out right now. I listen to the urban stations EVERYDAY and I’ve yet to hear anything like this. It has more of a pop/funk/indie/country vibe to it. The “in” sound at urban is Mike WiLL made it (body party, Pour It Up & kisses down low).
BE SEATED _/
@hiclass
Exactly!
Love it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I love it! Very catchy and relaxing!
#11 on itunes already. Wasn´t expecting this. You know the ageism the industry is made of. Looks promising for the coming weeks
About the song: I keep on loving it. So nice
Will the video premier on idol Wednesday or Thursday?
Wednesday!
#8 on U.S. iTunes lol
#1 in 11 countries in less than 8 hours, currently #8 in the U.S.! Love U Mimi!
#8 now? Wow. Wasn´t expecting this the first day
OMG I LOVE THIS!!
MIGUEL AND MARIAH?! Lawd, they sound sooooo good together?? Can’t wait for the video.
Yes Yes Yes Mariah!!
Hey we are missing u here. How are are you?
Better than her last two songs, but not brilliant. Would have been much better had Miguel not been on the track.
13 countries now. #1 in 13 countries!
Peaked at #7 on iTunes US before the glitches.
#BEAUTIFUL Currently #4 On US ITunes CONGRATS MARIAH & MIGUEL!
Haters Gonna Be Hate
Yes it´s #4 on USA itunes and #1 in many countries
It´s amazing. Only b****** over 40 to ever have hit singles are Mariah Carey and Madonna (and Cher once when she was like 80 years old 🙂 )
#4 on USA iTunes, top 10 in 26 countries, and #1 in 9 countries! Mariah is slaying!!! #BEAUTIFUL
I just saw a new photo from the video (it debuts tomorrow) and she looks amazing. She has lost so much weight these last few weeks
What a smash hit we have in our hands. Can´t believe it really happens for true legendary females still. Mariah teaching the lessors once more 🙂
