It’s true Mariah hasn’t turned in a start to finish bad album, just some with more filler than good tracks (E=MC2) - but never a total mess.

‘With You’ is a totally inoffensive sing along comfort song - but Mariah used to have such strong lead singles.

I admire that just like ‘Almost Home’ she has made a song more fitting of her vocal range today - but WHO told her A&R to let her make a song that so obviously needs a Mariah vocal climax and bridge??? The song feel unfinished.

And regardless - she’s never going to sing the song live all the time anyway - so might as well leave the theatrics intact. I agree she has nothing to prove - but even for a fan I expect more.
