LOOOOOOOOOOOOVE IT!!! MARIAH IS THE S**T! IF YOU HAVE ANYTHING BAD TO SAY ABOUT HER UR JUST A HATER! DONT BE MAD BOO BOO : )

we’ll see how the album will do!

shes back!!!!!!

i’ll wait till she drops something else….not feeling this track. i’m sure MC has some better tracks in store.

another hot one from M.C.!!

Go Mi Mi!!!!!!!!

Don’t think this album will live up to the anticipated hype…

Cant listen to it but Mariah normally is great so this shouldn’t be good.

mariah can do no wrong….even if this isnt the hottest single…im sure the album as a whole is fiya!!!

I will be gettin it either way..

It kinda still sounds like the emancipation of mi mi…but hopefully she will execute it well in the video…to make the song more appealing…

Boring and Generic

this might just be the “it’s like that” which i like sooo much more than this but it will definitely have to grow on me, but i feel she’s going to release a second single and that’s going to be the next #1 for her, i feel this might get close to #1 or even achieve it since the wait has been long and we Mariah fans stay loyal lol BUT I MUST RE-LISTEN TO LIKE IT, I DIDN’T GRAB ME AT FIRST OR SECOND LISTEN, SOO GET MARIAH BRING OUT THE FIRST ASAP PLEASE, THIS IS KINDA LUKEWARM!!

OK, AT FIRST LISTEN I WAS LIKE IT’S IIGHT….BUT NOW I LOOOOOOOVE THE TRACK, IT’S ANOTHER MARIAH HIT. IT KINDA REMINDS ME OF OLD MARIAH (DAYDREAM ERA) BUT WITH NEW SCHOOL TWIST. OVERRALL MARIAH AND THE DREAM HAVE CREATED A NUMBER ONE HIT, THE NEXT SONG OFF THE LP WILL BE A SLOW JAM, SHE ALWAYS DOES THAT. MARIAH HOLLLLLLLLLLA!

its cute……

thats it.

FYI - MARIAH JUST FINISHED THE VIDEO

ALBUM TITLE IS CALLED E=MC², NOT THAT CHICK. THANK GOD.

well unlike Janet (yeah I brought Janet into this) Mariah has the vocal skills, so you can ignore her desperate attempt at staying young and relevant by taking off her damn clothes! I think it kinda cheapens the artist for them to show so much sexuality. it is like they are jumping up and down like a little kid saying look at me. Mariah was so classy when she first came out and I know that was part of her husband’s image for her, but it made her a little bit more respectable.

I can’t wait to see the video……I know Mariah will be good and naked

I LIKE It but do not LOVE IT. Oh well we will see.

I expected more. She needs a power ballad ASAP to show off her voice.

It’s way better than Janet’s wack @ss single. Go MIMI!

It’s okay. Not original though.
I hope the album is Mariah’s sound; not everyone elses.

I really like it. I think it is a grower but this is better than the Janet songs I have heard so far.

FIRST FEEDBACK AND THE OTHER JANET SONGS ARE BETTER BUT SH!T, IT’S FINALLY GROWING ON ME CUZ I’VE BEEN LISTENING NON-STOP!!! I’M DEFINITELY BUYING BOTH HER AND JANET’S CD’S CUZ I KNOW THAT SECOND SINGLE, WHICH IS COMING SOON WILL BE FIRE!!!!!!!

Number 16 and other poster just made me think of something…Maybe i’m thinking too hard on this but i’m bored at work so please forgive me…E=MC2…Maybe that means…Emancipation (name of last album), mariah carey 2….Like, it’s part two of the last album….

@Stacy H.

I just knew it was a matter of time before somebody started with the dumb comparisons, but since you are at it all three of Janet’s new tracks sound better than this new single IMO.

One more thing:

Mariah has vocals but can’t dance for shit so what’s your point??

MC .. you can do no wrong.. love it!!

This is one talented lady, and she is BACK YAY!

I wondered why she changed it to E=MC² from ‘That Chick’? Unless that album title was completely fake, but whatever this title’s name is better…I get the MC part of it, not sure about the rest lol..

AND I hope she dont strip down purlease. You know Mariah will have too much hanging out which is NOT a good look…

but still GREAT TALENT…

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

YES MC DON’T LIKE CLOTHES ANYMORE…i guess cause old man mottola use to keep her WRAPPED UP!!

H20: Janet may have danced in the video for FEEDBACK but what did it get her? A FLOP! So it goes both ways boo…

Are ya’ll CRAZY….this record is AVERAGE…just average….for a Multi-octave singer? who is the biggest selling female in history…and she comes back with this boring single (which rips off Breakdown off the butterfly CD)…it’s boring…..plain boring….this is what we WERE waiting for????? This is some bullshit. She’s a LAZY vocalist on this cut….how could the same producers who did UMBRELLA come with this corny piece of fluff…a MAJOR disappointment. Let’s hope they switch up the single…..LA REID….just can’t screw up Janet’s CD…now he’s SCREWed up Mariah’s return…….. HELP HER JAY Z

@toya

Don’t speak too soon this shit hasn’t hit #1 yet.

Hot mess at best! I need her to try and sing somethin’ a lil’ more mature! Really!

Poor Mariah, she’s devoted so much time to knowing every word in the English lexicon and she goes and sings the most grammatically tragic shi* just so teens will dig her. Whatever. I can loathe that she’s so low brow with it these days, but I can never say she can’t sing. Actually, I just listen to her voice, the way it rises and falls…I don’t even listen to the words…it’s like some curious instrument…So, based on the fact that she’s got supernatural vocals, I’ve got to listen to everything she does. I hope it gets to #1.

This is a Ciara or Janet sounding track, Mariah’s got a voice so this is disappointing as the first single. For us die hard Mariah fans this is more like a track on the CD that we like, but it’s not single material. I been down with Mariah since Vision of Love, even Glitter ok…stronger single is needed. I can already see the video touching her body showing one side of her face with that damn butterfly ring on.

She had better shit than this on the Glitter soundtrack.LOL

IMPORTANT!!!

BRIAN! They are deleting blogs left to right for posting this song!!! Especially if you can download it!! Some really popular ones are GONE.

I suggest you take it down before the worse happens here.

It ain’t even all that to see you guys go.

aye one thing that sucks is how yall love to compare artist. There will never be just artist, there is no real competition because everyone is different. I mean the radio plays the same 40 songs in rotation so you can have everybody.

I knew someone was going to compare Janet with Mariah, but they are both great on their own. And how soon yall forget that Mariah flopped, we were all busting on her and said she would never made it then emancipation came out.

Fucking drone sheep. Make up your minds. Be thankful these damn people share their talent with you in the first place. Respect them. If you don’t like the music. Don’t listen.

Anyway, my opinion. Song is weak and average, BUT she is a great artist. This may be strategy. Get us talking, expecting more, craving more, then a banger will come. That’s how it works.

At the end of the day both Janet and Mariah are worth over $150 million have awesome careers. That’s what counts.

hot record….Cristyle wrote this with MiMi…media just given Dream the credit cuz he got the name.

A shit load of Janet’s stans are hating on Mariah’s new single. There is no surprise there. I guess the fact that Feedback is a flop, and TMB is more likely to become a bigger hit bothers them. I personally like the song better than “RWU, and “Luv”. I’m glad the majority agrees that TMB is hot. Hopefully Mariah will follow the song up with a bangin club banger. I also agree with Brian. We should get Migrate” as the 2nd single. Or “I’m That Chick You Like”.

I think people should give the song a few more listens, before giving an opinion. It’s hot. I just wish Mariah would’ve displayed her vocals a bit more.

Brian, u better get up on Cristyle! Teyanna, Tiffany Evans and now MC! You have posted 3 of her records in a month…

Why won’t she just stand at the microphone ,concentrate and belt out some powerful vocals. This is not her style at all. Sing Mariah, sing. Damn I can’t wait for Whitney to come back out.

Please remember that Mariah Carey’s FIRE single is usually her second one, and I have to somewhat agree that I expected more out of this Mariah and Dream collabo BUTTTTTTTTTT the song is ENJOYABLE and that’s what I think they were looking for…… let’s remember “It’s like that” and then “We Belong Together”, case closed. Mariah has always brought heat and there’s no denying that. One.

#26 calm down it is going to be alright. I was just stating the obvious fact about the situation with Janet and Mariah. they are both women who have had great careers in the younger days, and both are now trying to make a strong comeback, even though Mariah’s last album was much more successful then the last two from Janet. Don’t worry #26 Janet will appreciate it when you buy her CD

I’ll continue listening to her previous material……

I fell asleep listening to this track. NEEEEEEEEXT!!!!

mariah can’t sing like she used to so why do you ppl want her to sing a ballad? she’s better than janet vocally that’s for sure but her voice does not sound the same anymore and frankly she’s one of the most annoying ppl in the industry. she’s always half-naked YET when other ppl are half-naked, they’re called hoes or sluts. double-standard

@RP but whitney can’t sing anymore, at least not like she used to. she screwed up her voice

Straight up…This song isn’t even 1/2 as interesting to listen to as “Feedback”, much less “LUV”.

It is SO UNFAIR that Janet won’t even get an opportunity to shine but Mimi can just LEAN BACK and come out all low-key, make some elementary, simple shit and get to the Top 5 (The more I listen, the less I think “Touch My Body” is #1 material …).

One thing I can say is that Mariah’s vocals are so.much.more improved compared to “Mimi.” I can hear that “Daydream”-era tone again, and I’m very impressed. Good for her!

Too bad the song is not THAT hot.

#41
who’s comparing Janet and Mariah? That would be stupid…you can’t. Mariah’s voice isn’t even human, seriously… and she’s always been more hip hop oriented… they’ve got nothing in common, except age…I guess

I never understood why people commenting on a blogsite that the artist will never see, meet, know, pay, or give two sh*ts about make it their business to call anybody that disagrees with what they like a:

1.hater
2.dumb b*tch
3.idiot
4.any other baffoonery you can come u p with at the time

correct me if im wrong but isnt the whole idea of a blog to get diff perspectives on a subject and be able to give yours w/o ridicule? Hmmmmmmmm……

#48 Nothing was ever wrong with mariah’s voice…she is purposely underperforming. And, people don’t like to talk about this but she’s always dieting and getting lipo…she seriously looked uncomfortable that year at the BET awards when she stank…it looked like she hadn’t eaten and had gotten 10 gallons of slush out of her just before the curtain call. But, when you hear this song, you can tell she’s still got it…you can also hear where she’s trailing off purposely…I hate that she won’t belt one out anymore, but teens like shi* about booties and little else, what are you gonna do?

Lol, what important Blogs? I just checked and that track is still up.

______________________________________________________________________

MC’s last album was also much more successful than her two albums that came out before IT! MC just got her career back on track and for that I’m thankful because I’m a fan. But lets not act like she hasn’t had her share of flops in the past as well. between 2001 and 2004 nobody was checking for Mariah at radio or in record stores. She was once where Janet is now and it really wasn’t that long ago.

It’s a trip how people comment and pop shit then want to come back and try to validate there comments. It is what it is, your opinion. I don’t need an explanation on why you made your dumbass comments, I could care less. You acting like Glitter and Charmbracelet were some hot albums, go sit your monkey ass down.

Not feeling this…..Not feeling the vocals at all!!:(

This is song dissapoints me…..I hope and pray the rest of her album aint garbage as hell!!!

@49

Well damn. Who the hell is going to step up to the plate to become the premier vocalist?? Any suggestions? That is what the game is really lacking.

For ya’ll who think this is a dope song ya’ll need to go back and listen to some of the hot joints from the late 70s, 80s and 90s. This is garbage, its like Mickey D’s taste real good but too much will kill you. Listen to MJ’s off the Wall or Thriller. Them songs stand the test of time, you won’t remember this song 5 weeks from now.

Wtf…!?? is LA Reid serious? That was pretty disappointing as a first single, I have to say I expected much better. Love Mariah but this is crap, not even worthy of her… like it’s aimed at Tellytubbies or something.

H2HO I mean O is a hater, I think she is just jealous. IMO

This single is a HOT mid-tempo track for real 18th number 1. Can’t wait for the song with Damien Marley!

Ya’ll wait till Shanice album comes out, I’ve heard some joints and it’s really dope, she’s going in a new direction, changing it up. You’ll be pleasantly surprised.

AWW SHES A SLUT… !!

she should prob hook up with fabolous and ne-yo..”2 make thewm better… since they aremnt sop hot….

sry. ;

You mean Shanice from Crenshaw? LMAO

@61

Yo mama a HO !! LOL

I love this song!!!

And Brian I hope that link is not a download up there because THEY ARE SHUTTING PPL DOWN OVER THIS SONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What will we remember 5 days from now? What from this generation? Seriously… Everybody’s on Mariah right now…sure the song DOES suck…but how does it differ from anything that’s been celebrated in recent years? The only thing that separates Mariah and other lauded gen-X divas is that she’s older…she can’t do all the ass dancing and if she could, nobody wants to see it because she doesn’t have an ass lol Just remember Beyonce got 5 Grammys in one night before you go criticizing Mariah… Sure she should do better but for her, because she CAN not because she is the only one mediocre artist…If she should be held up to yesterday’s standards, so should Beyonce, Janet, Rihanna, Amerie, Kelly, Ciara…NONE of these women have done anything worth mentioning…

does neyos boo want him back?? cuz all those love songs…. gets old REAL quick.. hes got somethin comin…. U 2 FAB! :)))

How u guys gonna compare Janet and Mariah…thats like apples and oranges! wtf

Anyway…I think the track is nice. It sounds like Mariah.

Janet and Mariah will both do great this year.

I like the beat!

That’s the best u got? What are you 12? Get the F&*ck outta here. LMAO!

well i like it,minus the begininng…..the first verse….and thats it,the chorus is really nice…im digging the chorus alot,i think it saves the song.

Yea I know of two major blogs that shut down, and a forum. so watch it concreteloop. be easy!!

@74

Yeah I decided to take it back with that one!!LOL

It’s a blog do really expect me to take you seriously?? Relax, have fun with it. BIYAATCH.

Please ho, who would take a 12 year old seriously. Go do your homework.

I love Mimi!!! But the track is okay!

Nothing to scream about….but the 2nd verse is better than the first!!!

That song is lame as fuck. yall know she is having blogs deleted for posting her song. Better delete it. Isnt worth listening to anyway.

PUT SOME CLOTHES ON!!!!! (Song is great)

#48 what the hell are you smoking….did you even listen to her last album because she sang her ass off on alot of the tracks on that album like “stay the night” “mine again”, “joy ride” “circles” “fly like a bird” “i wish you knew” please mariah CAN still sing….and lik others said,her second single will probably be the bangers.

we will see what alvins mom will do when the cd comes out until then later not a hater lololol

[...] • Mariah Carey’s new single! [CL] [...]

this is horrible, even the lambs have to agree (I Agree with TY), Mariah has an incredible voice. Didn’t usher tell her to stop whispering and she would sell records and she comes out with this weak single. I blame LA REID, Mariah Carey is a Legand, and Icon who deserves respect and strong material. She has paved the way for the Beyonces, Ameries, Rihanna’s, etc…. How do u give her some dumb-sing-a-long where she sounds like can’t sing. Mariah is stupid too., i’m sorry lambs., all you fools were expecting her to bring out a “it’s like that” and KILL the end with those powerful vocals and she releases this stupid song which pics up where Charmbraclet left off…. this is sad, a very sad day for Mariah. This will NOT be a hit. You can wait on a We Belong Together ballad to save the day…but the Damage this will cause……..is already being done. LA REID ur a dummy. U damage Janet’s chances and now U ruin Mariah’s.

I personally Love the song after playing it like 5 times it is a very catchy song This really to me is a buzz song to get us ready for more to come from her just like “It’s Like That” did then she hit us with “We Belong Together” and we all know how that song did so I think she is going to drop a bangin ass 2nd single hands down

And Janet’s song Feedback is cool and all but I dont think that many ppl is really checking for her like that like ppl saying they are but who knows we will see when both of there albums drop and im buying Mariah’s first day it come out

CD song filler…..It is ok to fill space…only.

@78

Are you just mad cause this single is weak? I know I didn’t get under you skin that bad. Can’t take the heat, stay out the damn kitchen. Am I really affecting your day? I hope not. Everyone is entitled to their own opinions, so no need to bust bad and talk shit like it is really something serious going down. Like I said RELAX, it’s just a blog.

It’s alright. Like everyone else, even the stans that are loving it, feel like there should be more. She’s coming off of her best album in years(Emancipation) and they, she should have dropped something better. Let’s not blame LA Reid because Mariah and Janet have both been in the game forever so if they’re not in control of their own careers this late in the game there is a problem. With that said does anybody else wish that Mariah and Janet would go back to when they was really shutting shit down? You know how Mariah would drop an album and the industry would follow suit, the same way with Janet? These are two trendsetting bitches and I want that power back for them. EITHER WAY I’M COPPING BOTH ALBUMS. I’LL DANCE WITH JANET AND TRY TO HOPELESSLY HIT ALL THEM DAMN NOTES MARIAH HITS( ALONE OF COURSE LOL)

OH YEAH COSIGN @35 MARIAH REALLY DOES HAVE A HUGE ASS VOCABULARY AND THE LYRICS ON THIS ARE WEAK. YOU CAN’T DENY THAT THEY ARE. LISTEN TO ANY MARIAH ABLUM AND YOU JUST MIGHT HAVE TO TAKE YOUR ASS TO THE LIBRARY TO GET A DEFINITION LOL BUT NOT WITH THIS ONE. IT’S FOR THE CHICKENHEADS!!! (LYRICALLY)

It’s alright…sounds like Charmbraclet throw aways.Most likely it grown on me.

::yawn:: this song is boring wow

sounds all the other songs she’s made..come on mariah step it up

OOOOOKKKKKKKKKK, HERE WE GO AGAIN. ISN’T THIS THE SAME REACTION YOU GUYS HAD WITH RIHANNA’S “UMBRELLA” AND DARE I SAY ALICIA KEYS “NO ONE”, BUT WHEN YOU GIVE A SONG A CHANCE IT WILL GROW ON YOU, IM READING ALL THESE HATING COMMENTS BUT IM SURE YOU GUYS ARE THE SAME ONES WHO WERE UP IN CAR OR AT HOME SINGING…..NO ONE NO ONE NO ONEEEEEEEEE OR UMBRELLA ELLA ELLA EHHH…..BUT JUST WEEKS BEFORE YOU WERE UP ON HER DISSING THE ARTISTS WORK. SO PLEASE ENJOY THE SONG, SIT BACK AND RELAX, AND STOP TAKIN SH*T SO DAMN PERSONAL ——- “TOUCH MY BODY” IS AN ENJOYABLE TRACK THAT JUST MADE IT FOR VALENTINES DAY, I’M VERY SURE THAT LA REID OR EVEN MARIAH DONT THINK THAT THIS WILL BE A MEMORABLE TRACK THAT WILL BE TALKED ABOUT IN THE NEXT TEN YEARS. IT’SSSSSSSSSSSSS AN ENJOYABLE TRACK THAT FITS TODAYS MUSIC ON THE RADIO. GET WITH THE PROGRAM. (please somebody give me an amen)

people comparing mariah and janet are sort of immature- theyre both great artists in different ways. one is an amazing vocalist, the other an amazing entertainer- but they are totally different

this is a great album filler, not a single in my opinion
http://prima-donna1.blogspot.com

Ok, I listen to it a couple more times.The lyrics are kind of weak, but then again it’s the Dream that wrote this song and we know EH EH EH in your vocabulary won’t go far so I see why many of you see it’s weak.It’s a cute song, but not living up to what this new album is about.

damn damn damnnn! voice of weezy from da jefersons) I was exspecting something ta make me slap my mama and fall out speakin tounges needing ta get fanned down by the ushers. but damn its a leaked amerie track for the love of God bring back sangin and the church said hot damn!

Its nice, it is, but it doesnt scream huge number #1 single. I didnt get the same feeling I got when I heard We Belong Together. I am a little disappointed though I feel like this is the same old recycle stuff she’s been singing for the last decade. I really wanted her to come a little harder. its WAY too safe she’s at the point in her career where record exects can take a bigger risk on her.

And don’t get me wrong I loves my mullatto bytch but its like beyonce calling you saying hey I wana have sex wit ya. and ya get there and she drops the clothes and she got the body of missy elliot. get my point I’m dizapointed

TOUCH MY BODY? WHO WROTE THIS SHIT? I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT!! I’LL TOUCH YOUR BODY IF YOU TOUCH MY ….!!

I like this Mariah always come correct…Well besides Glitter and the next album…she can SANG…go Mariah does everyone on Def Jam gets a song from NeYo or The Dream and Tricky Crazy

What a piece of shit!!!!

Watch this mess go to number one because America knows nothing about true music.

I like this This is HOT! U did it Mariah,

Please!!!!!!!!!!! As if Mimi could ever make a bad song….this shit is smooth and melodic……love it….

OMG this SUCKS BAD take it down!

So, erruh…
Back to the drawing board for Mi Mi.

And I am actually her #1 fan.
hairsmystory.com

LOL, Mariah has become such a clever song writer, I love how she flows over the beat. And this line is PRICELESS:

“If you run your mouth and brag about our secret rendezvous, I will HUNT YOU DOWN’

LMAO, gotta love Mimi!

This is a TRAGIC first single for a multi-octave, multi-platinum, multi-dimensional selling artist! Is this what music has been reduced to? Mediocore production, lazy vocals, and a Casio beat?!?! Im sorry Mimi- ME NO LIKEY!

Mimi, I love you, but why are you putting out such mediocre material? Where’s the passion that you put into previous efforts, including “We Belong Together”. Now THAT was the shiet. I can’t wait for the next song. I’d hate to say this, but “Feedback” is a much stronger first single.

RELEASE “MIGRATE” NOW!

First of all Mariah is my girl and so is Janet and you guys sound like idiots comparing these two legendary women who have young girls trying to be like! So stop all the hate to try to uplift one artist and put one down. These two have made it possible for women to be successful in the industry. Anyways I love Mariah and this song is hot E=MC². is the mass-energy equivalent formula to to solve for the the amount of mass and energy formed by Albert Einstein but I don’t know how that relates to Mariah maybe she can explain all i can do is assume lol anyways as you were

NO.

THIS SHYT IS HOT IM SORRY I LOVE MiMi!!!!! “Put me on the floor- wrestle me around - play with me some more….” ahhh so hot!!! Go MiMi looking forward!!!

This is a catchy song. Everyone that wants her to belt on every record is silly…what kind of album is that! She has songs that she did..where she sings her ass off…enjoy the first single and love the album. LA is a genius….oh yeah Dream didnt write this song….

This song is very radio friendly; HOWEVER!!!!!!!!, this is not a song that shows off Mariah’s vocal ability.

It will have to grow on me because the beat is kinda cheesy and whenever I listen to songs in my car, I tend to like them better.

And Mariah ain’t perfect either! Janet may not have the vocals, but she can dance!!!

And we all know that Mariah can’t dance for shit, but her voice is hott!!!

http://www.myspace.com/cristylemusic is writer of this song….she has it posted on her page.

Hmmm….it’s ok. I listened to the song twice and my opinion hasn’t really changed about it. But honestly I was expecting more considering all the hype and being so careful about any singles leaking.

I’m still a Mariah fan so I’m not a ‘hater’ lol. But I just wish everyone (not just Mariah) were more concerned with really being creative rather than just making music that’s trendy or hot for the moment.

I can’t even hate, I like the song! I hate to admit it but it’s better than Janet’s Feedback. :\ And I knew this was gonna happen. Damn smh

I agree that this song is very catchy but mind you that catchy and simple lyrics=big money! How is that? People buy it! So when the consumers demand creativity guess what? Labels would promote artist and push them out like Kim does after having Diddy babies lol

LOVE HER!!!!

Not crazy about that song and definitely not feeling E=MC2 as the album title…. She should have stuck with “That Chick”…. Contrary to popular opinion, that is a hot album title.

She needs to put on clothes. This nudity is getting quite boooooring I must say. She loves “touching” herself too much.

Mariah Carey is THE Best selling female artist of all time. Her octive and vocal ranges has surpased many artists that come along after her and before her. She does not have to dance to sell because her talent and voice is enough. Unlike other artists *cough* Janet, Rihanna, Ciara*cough* Mariah writes all of her music. I don’t know why the comparisons are even made but if they must. I love the song. Similar to Emancipation of MiMi “It’s Like That” was cool for me but We Belong Together was official, the game was over, Mariah is back. I love Touch my body and I’m looking forward to hearing more material from the album.

Ok so the song doesnt sweep me off my feet lol, its a little catchy, but definately not what i was expecting after this long anticipation. Guess I just have to wait to see what the second single will be before I can make a decision on the album

@ Blackisbeautiful:

You’re right, creativity and thinking outside the box doesn’t sell as well as music that follows the formula for what’s popular at the moment, unfortunately.

THAT_BITCH has made just about the only honest comment I have read. It kills me how Mariah fans are on the attack with Janet when Mariah herself delivered 2 album flops and a movie flop. It wasn’t that long ago Mariah was a virtual nobody and other female artists were topping the charts and unlike Janet, Mariah wasn’t facing a MTV, VH1 and pop radio backlash. Had the Superbowl incident never happened Janet would still be making hits. But Black folks just salivate at the chance to bring down a legend like Janet when she is being punished for simply being Black, while Timberlake gets to play the King of R N B music. But Janet is such a star that Damita Jo, a brilliant Cd, was still CERTIFIED double platinum and 20 YO was CERTIFIED platinum. Now only a star could do that. Janet will soon have another #1 CD and she will be going on tour so you all who sit around wishing for her failure will just have to wait a little longer.

As for Mariah’s new song, it is ok and nothing special. Hopefully her second single will be the clincher just as it was with the Mimi CD. And I wish Mariah much luck and success because she deserves and has EARNED it.

I am waiting on Monica, I think she is gonna kill it this year, Mimi is dope man, I like it, she is gonna kill it.

GARBAGE!!!!!!! She def. gotta step up to even be on the level Emancipation was…Cmon MiMi.

Uh, maybe Rihanna and Ciara don’t write their own shit but the last time I checked for every album in Janet’s catalog minus the very first two(dreamstreet and janet jackson) and this latest one(Discipline) Janet has always wrote her shit right alongside Jimmy and Terry. So she may have to dance to sell but don’t try to squash her in there with the wannabes out now. WHy are we talking abot Janet anyways? lol This single is weak. She’ll get some radio airplay along with the video but it’s no number one hit that’s for sure, no matter how much it grows on you. Either way Janet, Mariah, Beyonce, and everyone else is two-steppin’ all the way to the bank on royalties alone!!!!!!!!!!!!! That’s the real clown!! LOL

I like it a lot, I jst wsh Janet was gettn sum luv, I dnt get t, these 2 females r POWERHOUSES (1 in DANCE & 1 in VOICE!) 2 good albums 2 look4ward 2, IM HAPPY …..

Both Mariah and Janet deserve success becasue they’ve worked so hard to get it, that you can’t deny. Janet’s doesn’t have Mariah’s voice but star power always translates. Mariah can’t work the stage like Janet but she can stand their flat-footed and make you wish for even a part of her vocal range. Two very different artist but both MEGA-successful, multi-talented, filthy rich and BLACK women doing what they do best entertain the masses and get paid well to do it!!!!!!!

On the single I’m dissapointed for two reasons. Lyrically it has to be one of Mariah’s weakest. Whoever above said Mariah has got a crazy vocab was not bullshiting and this makes me think of someone in junior high. 2nd beat wise it’s wack even for a mid-tempo song.Melodically it is very nice, I won’t remember it though a week from now

It’s okay not overly impressed. Yall better watch out though word is LA Reid shuttin down sites with this single on it.

YALL MARIAH FANS STARTED DA MARIAH VS JANET SHIT.LOL. YALL CAN TALK ABOUT JANETS LAST TWO CDS BUT SHE NEVER GOT AN AWARD OF WORST ACTRESS AND NON OF HER MOVIES WERE VOTED AS ONE OF THE WORST FILMS EVER MADE. AND DIDNT GLITTER (MOVIE),GLITTER (SOUNDTRACK OR ALBUM), AND CHARMBRACLET ALL FLOP? I THINK THEY DID HELL I KNOW THEY DID SO JUST CUZ MIMI HAD ONE BIG COMEBACK IN 05 (WHICH NO ONE WAS OUT DEN) DONT GET ALL BIG HEADED. CUZ US JANET FANS ARE NOT THREATIN IN ANY WAY SHAPE ARE FORM.

AND DID BEYONCE NAME MIMI AS A LEGEND AT THE GRAMMYS? NOOO

DOES MARIAH HAVE HER OWN STAR ON HOLLYWOOD WALK A FAME? NOOOO NOT JUST YET.

SO SAY WHATEVA ABOUT JANET CUZ JANET,BEYONCE,WHITNEY IS GONNA SHUT THAT WANNABE WHITE BITCH DOWN CUZ FOR ONE YALL DONT EVEN KNOW IF SHE BLACK SHE JUST SAID SHE MIXED I NEVER SEEN HER FATHER.LOL. HAVE YALL? NOOOOO

AND WHEN DA LAST TIME SHE HAD A DUDE ON HER ARM AINT HER LAST EX ATLEAST 10000 B.C YEARS OLD? YESSSSS.

AND THE ONLY REASON WHY IM HATIN IZ CUZ YALL HATIN ON JANET FOR NO REASON WHATSOEVA. AND IF YALL WANNA HAVE A HISTORY LESSON ON BOTH JANET N MARIAH IM READY WHAT DA HELL U GOT.

M.C. THATS WHAT UP, “I KNOW A HIT RECORD WHEN I HEAR ONE.”YESSSSSSS.
GREAT FOR RADIO; EASY LISTENING.; ALL SHE EVER HAD TO DO WAS SING
ANYWAY. HER REGISTER IS STILL UNFUCKWITTABLE. VERY FEW SINGERS HAVE A CATALOG LIKE HERS . HER VOICE IS A FORMIDABLE AS EVER.

HATTTTTERS!

133/S.I.C.K. What do u mean by all she ever had to do is sing? She’s written/co-written, and co-produced about 95% of all her music. She doesn’t even record her vocals in the studio with producers because she does her own vocal production.

I don’t like the song. Mariah is talented but she needs to stop doing them kiddy tracks. People will give their right nut to be able to sing like her.

I dunno why janet and ciara are brought up but they certainly DO write their own music. I’m aware ciara has a separate deal for writing and 5 ASCAP awards to back it up if anyone needs proof. idk about rihanna but i doubt she writes her own music… so freaking talentless.

Some people here need to calm the fuck down. TMB is just a little mid tempo tune. I guarantee you that Mariah will bring it with her second.

Janet unfortunately is still being blacklisted. If it wasn’t for that, I’m sure Feedback would have been a smash. The thing is that Janet needs radio. If radio is hardly playing her music, then how do we expect it to sell? She really needs radio. Not just television.

Radio and the charts should do well by TMB. I’m sure IDJ will drop another single right before E=MC2 drops.

Ok I am Mariah;s #1 fan since 1990. I must say that she has had to water down her style and talent since Glitter because people dont appreciate her when shes belting in full voice. Then they complain if she is mainstream on these kinds of tracks.. wtf do you want? Her album is sure to be fiya and if not she still wont be outsold by most of these chicks out here. So just Relax, Sit back and listen. Shes tryna show her diveristy she has years ahead to continue to grow as an artist.

Yossarian

The song is not all that. They better have an great 2nd single because this is not gonna cut it.

who keeps tryna get folks to take down the post… haters… worse case they will have to stop playin it thats all. Relax

I have to agree with Mariah fans. I think The Dream wrote this song for her because her writing skills are so much better than this lol. If you don’t know, listen to the “Butterfly and “Rainbow” albums I’ve noticed that her vocabulary is expansive. Well with that said, I think this single is an average song. Mariah’s vocal producing was very good on this record however the lyrics were lacking. Maybe the album would be better though. Oh yeah no need to put my girl Janet down. These two are totally different. You guys need to calm down and take your meds with Chris Crocker because these women have always sold records and did the damn thang! Mariah is a vocalist/songwriter and Janet is a performer/songwriter okay get it right bitches and stop looking foolish defending these women on who is better? It’s really childish

News alert: Obama wins Va DC and Maryland!! Go Obama Go!!! Yes we can! WI Tx, OH Stand Up!!!! Vote Barack Obama!!!!

love it

Thank you # 140 you get it. Mariah has written alot of great stuff but her audience was limited mostly to her fanbase. now she has a chance to sneak in the slow burners, hence We Belong Together, Fly Like Bird, Circles, Stay The Night.
She just has to reach the pop listners first. I love Janet as well always have.

man.at first when i saw that the song was played and read yall comments i was so mad at Mariah.Then i got off work into the car and all the hip hop stations were playing it. now i must say after hearing it myself i will never go by what yall say without hearing it myself cuz this song is too dope. i love it.wait til next week when its grows on U. yall will b singing another tune. i knew mc was gon bring heat.

BLENDER REVIEW OF MARIAH’S NEW SINGLE:

MARIAH’S NEW SEX TAPE=THEMED SMASH
WHO: Mariah Carey
WHAT: “Touch My Body”
WHY: While Mariah’s new album, E=MC2, is set to be one of the year’s biggest, this introductory single is downright subtle - yet effective. Co-written by The-Dream and produced by Tricky (a.k.a. the dudes behind “Umbrella”), “Touch My Body” rides the same never ending snap blueprint T-Pain used to brilliant effect on last year’s feather-light super hit “Buy U A Drank (Shawty Snappin’).” You won’t mind hearing it on the radio and TV every 10 minutes for the next few months - this thing sooths as it repeats. Here, Mariah is focused on one thing: “Come on and give me what I deserve and touch my body,” she coos. And make no mistake, she wants to be touched on her terms only: “Cause if you run your mouth and brag about this secret rendezvous, I will hunt you down.” She even thinks about the possible ramifications of her touchy tryst when she sings, “If there’s a camera up in here then I best not catch this flick on YouTube” (nevermind the fact that the video in question would never get past YouTube censors). A pop genius making genius pop.

“TOUCH MY BODY” REVIEWS
Tuesday, 12-Feb-2008, 8:22PM EST

Erik Bradley
Music Director, B-96, Chicago, IL

“‘Touch My Body’ picks right up where The Emancipation Of Mimi left off. It’s another classic Mariah mid-tempo SMASH with a hook that will stick with you for days. The reaction to it thus far has been incredible…I believe at the end of the day this will be Mariah’s 18th #1 single. I’ve heard many of the songs on E=MC2 and not only is it full of killer songs, I feel it stands just as tall (perhaps taller) than T.E.O.M. Here comes another 10+ million worldwide sales and more time at the top of the charts for MC!”

Source: B96

Here is my take on this. First off, I love the title. It’s genius. E=MC2 means Emancipation=Mariah Carey to the second power. It’s a good song but not great. The melody is catchy and I like her tone, it reminds me of the Daydream era a la Always Be My Baby. She didn’t vocally bang out the end of the song, her songs always build vocally but this one doesn’t go far which is what I think is missing. Mariah only co-wrote this that’s why the lyrics are more urban. I still like the lyrics though, not Shakespeare but decent. It’s a safe pop record which is what I think they are going for. I hear album consists of mostly uptempo songs and I was hoping she would have released a stronger more uptempo lead single. I’m sure there are stronger/better songs on the album because LA said he is planning to release six singles from this album. I’m waiting for the big power ballad. They only played ten songs at the listening parties so I’m sure they have some surprises. As for Janet, she is a legend herself and shouldn’t be brought up to make Mariah look better. They both bring different things to the industry and I hope they both do well. LA better put in that overtime.

@ 143

Yep! lol Mariah is the girl and I think she chose The Dream to write this song for her because he is the hottest songwriter right now. Ever since he wrote “Bed” and “Umbrella” the man has taken off lol. I still think his writing is subpar but I can’t hate on the man living out his dream and what does it matter people like it and it’s gain him popularity and money lol. That brother getting paid. So I guess Mariah is just watering down her style to what’s hot to get a hit. Soon she might let Keri Hilson write for her or the clutch maybe. Yep she reaching it out to the pop listeners and a different generation too.

Funny how MC fans will come out to defend her at any rate.. This track shows that she is not willin take risks. D song is simply OK, it might not live up to the hype its being given.. I really hope the video will lift it up… No offence, but y’ll need to clear da chart for BRANDY… she’s gonna kill it this year folks…

@149

Cristyle wrote this with MC….

Nope. In terms of the production - it sounds like every other song she has recorded in the last ten years. Vocally it’s seriously lacking. She left us with very high expectations after The Emancipation of Mimi, and so far she’s not meeting them. Hopefully the next one is a banger.

I want to say thank you to all my Marylanders, Virginians, and DC heads for voting for OBAMA during the Potomac primaries. Love you all!!!!

It’s ok - but i never get the full effect on the computer. when i hear it in the whip or in the club bangin i’ll probably like it - it’s the same way I felt about we belong together. sometimes simple and easy is the way to do it. i certainly don’t want to hear a whole record full of wailing and blowing. gotta have lighter songs too to keep me listening. we all know the woman can sing if you listened to TEOM. i’m not the hugest fan, but i know i enjoyed several of the faster songs and slower ballads on that album - and i’m sure she’ll deliever to her fans again.

Correction: Ciara writes or cowrites all her songs. Rihanna can’t and doesn’t write for herself.

As for the song, it should do well but it’s not a banger.

U no whats funny, i havent even heard the song i just assumed… i mean who really just uses their body to promote like that… who really just uses that “title” to promote that… her voive is her talent ,,not her body… am i mistaken?? shall we go back to i had a vision of love instead of i had a vision of fucking ur brains and could u cum in my mouth while ur at it??? cuz she was all sexual in the perfume commercial i mean a few more inches she could have been naked…its really sad to see…thats really sad to see. oh well!

how u say leave me alone then express what u wannna doo…like touch my body, pull my hair,,, kiss me there… thats strange…

shes like singing a luliby of what she wants…”i will hunt u…this is private…BUT TOUCH ME. AND I BETTER NOT CATCH THIS ON YOUTUBE!!! but i just wanna make u feel good…!”

what??????

i think she wants what kim & ray j had…. well i guess her a and reggie…. SHE JUST WANTS J….who doesnt?? even kanye does…. wow.

goodnite!! ;

@ 151

thanx for the info because Tricky Stewart usually works with The Dream so I assumed she might’ve co-written it with him but thank you anyways

Mimi go have to step her game up a lil more she is in the ring with Beyonce, Rhianna, and Ciara

I like the song. it’s not her best song, and it does not show any artistic growth but its a cute song. I think in this song she’s just trying to be contemporary with what’s going on today. The lyrics and vocal skills are kind of dumbed down on purpose but sometimes I don’t feel like listening to socially conscious music. Sometimes I want to here physically conscious music, and Touch My Body is interesting in that is shows off Mariah sensual sexy side. I’m sure there will be better songs on the album.

i like the song

GO OBAMA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think the song is great. I don’t understand that Mariah vs Janet ish especially considering that they are two completely different artists who respect each other. *shrugs* I love them both.

Anyways, for those who say that Mariah isn’t taking a risk I would have to disagree. Mariah’s risk taking is in the fact that she is not in her 20’s anymore and has put out a record that is adapting to what is hot right now.

That in itself is a risk- adding on to the fact that Mariah is an amazing vocalist who decided NOT to showcase her many octaves, heck she didn’t even do one of her trademark whistles (lol). It may not be seen as much of a risk as say her cutting off her hair and doing can-can moves but its a risk nonetheles. We all know how older women (and I say that with all due respect) are more criticized than their male counterparts.

Love it! Even though I miss the ol’ school classic Mariah Carey that could hit those notes, she’s still delivering. I ain’t mad at her!

I LOVE it! Yes, its typical, safe Mariah music, but I love her music so its ok. Plus, remember with Emancipation, she came out with “Like that ya’ll” which wasn’t so great, but then blew us away with “We Belong Together”, so I ‘m sure she’ll have many more tricks up her sleeve.

Re: 122
You need some medicine for those coughs? Because Janet writes her own music too. For someone you claim doesn’t write their own songs, she sure does won a few ASCAP Songwriter of the Year awards LOL.

Re: 70
What the F was that? lol @ you grouping Janet with Beyonce, Rihanna, Ciara, etc. SMH. I’m tired of that shit. WTF is wrong with people? You CANNOT put Janet Jackson with those names. These same people who hold this stance do not do that for Mariah Carey, yet Janet came out before her by 8 years! You saying that hypothetically if they were held up to yesterday’s standards…JANET JACKSON IS FROM THAT GENERATION. Come the F on now. NONE of these woman have done anything worth mentioning? Janet hasn’t done anything worth mentioning?

Hmm…Now I DIDN’T want to do this, but you asked for it.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Janet_Jackson#Tours

The Rhythm Nation 1814 Tour was Janet Jackson’s first worldwide tour in support of her multi-platinum smash album, Rhythm Nation 1814 before flying into Japan on May . The tour started on March 1, 1990 at the Miami Arena. The tour was a 9-month long venture. Criss-crossing the U.S.1990. The Japan tour was her first experience of foreign audience. She sold out shows in that country, most impressively, the 48,000-capacity Tokyo Dome with four shows, which still holds the record for the fastest sell out in the history of the Tokyo Dome, a record seven minutes. Then she also sold out shows in Hong Kong, her only Southeast Asian tour venue. She flew back to North America to wrap up remaining shows before flying to Europe. She performed in England, The Netherlands, and more with many sold out shows, ending the year with a bang.

# The Rhythm Nation Tour appeared in 25 countries.

# The tour opened with a sell out show in Miami.

# Beginning in March 1990, the Rhythm Nation Tour ran a full nine months and performed over 120 shows.

# The 5-date LA shows sold out in a record of 48 minutes.

# Janet collected 25 cents from each ticket sold in some of her shows and donated an accumulated $450,000 to the United Negro College Fund for the Rhythm Nation Scholarship.

# In the end, the tour spawned numerous sold out shows around the world and attracting over 2 million fans. This made the Rhythm Nation World Tour the biggest debut tour by any artist in history. The tour grossed over $28.1 million in the U.S. alone and it became one of the ten best grossing concert tours of 1990.

I DIDN’T WANT TO DO IT BUT YOU ASKED FOR IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

@THE FLOACIST At least we know Janet sure has been shutting shit down for the last 25 years and not just dropping albums. lol Really though was all that necessary? lol BACK TO MARIAH The single is cool, I’m not gonna be humming it in my sleep anytime but it’s a nice little diddy for the boppers. I’m sure like LA Reid said they’ll be dropping about 6 singles, at least try too, off this album. I’m still copping Janet and Mariah. Like someone posted earlier, I’ll be dancing with Janet and trying to sing like Mariah the rest of the year.
-SIDEBAR-JANET HAS MORE BILLBOARD AWARDS THAN MICHAEL AND WHITNEY? WELL SHE HASN’T BEEN MICHAEL’S LITTLE SISTER IN AWHILE. LOL GET ‘EM JANET

LOVE THE SONG MIMI IS DA BEST, NOT MANY ARTISTS HER AGE CAN SWITCH THINGS UP. ON THE CONTRARY TO WHAT PPL THINK I GUARANTEE THIS WILL BE A HUGE HIT, BECAUSE IT’S SOMETHING THAT CATERS TO EVERY AGE GROUP. N RELAX YALL DIS IS JUS A TEASER AN APPETIZER, OF COURSE MIMI GONE HAVE RAW GROWN ASS WOMAN MATERIAL ON HER ALBUM. DUH!!

I LOVE IT!

This is so typical and generic. All 3 of the new Janet songs are way better than this crap.

not really feeling it but, I guess after I hear it a couple more times it’ll grow on me

IM STARTIN 2THINK BRIAN ONLY LIKES NEW ARTISTS….U HAVE NOT LIKED ONE SONG BY AN ESTABLISHED ARTIST THIS YEAR……………………..THIS IZ A HIT…WITH A CAPITAL H….DONT KNOW WHAT THE DETRACTORS R THINKON OR TALKIN BOUT….JANETS 3 SINGLES R BETTA THAN THIS…IN WHAT COUNTRY……NOT EVEN A MARIAH FAN LIKE THAT BUT I CAN TELL U THAT THIS RIGHT HERE IS FIRE….NOT RISKY ENOUGH…PPL JUST MAKIN SHIT UP NOW….SHE SAY IF ITS A CAMERA IN THIS ROOM..ITS GON B LEAVIN WITH ME…..SHE AINT NEVA BEEN ON NUTHIN LIKE THAT BEFORE….I FUCS WIT IT….YALL NEED A NEW MUSIC CLASS….NEW MUSIC IZ NOT FA’ EVERYBODY…SUM PPL HAVE 2 B BRAINWASHED FIRST….FACT

THIS SO IS GARBAGE, “if you tell… I will hunt you down” what the hell? I am mad she let this ish leak. Can we say you better go back to the studio and try again this is more like the “Imitation of MiMi.” I’ve never liked confused about who you are, found black years later when it became cool, Mariah Carey, but I will not deny that chick can sing but lately her lyrics and voice have been mediocre. Where is the voice? And I do not mean the high pitch note she thinks is golden I mean the range she usually sings on ballads I haven’t heard that ish since 1994 Hero. Come on Mariah.

the one has spoken….NOW SHUT THE BACK DOOR.

I’m feeling the title she finally chose for the album, so that in itself has peaked my interest.

The song is just ok. This is really radio friendly,so I can see why it was chosen as a first single. With Emancipation, the whole was definitely better than it’s individual singles. MC knows she has to come with fiyah on the CD.

I just hope the video won’t be the standard Mariah videos *YAWN*

Very Nice

Nice, it’s the same Mariah no changes just good music.

KUDOS!!!!

I don’t really like it…in a minute I”m gonna request that she don’t work with JD for a while b/c this is bullshit lyrically

http://www.mariahcarey.com/e=mc2/

According to her site it said her, The Dream, and Tricky Stewart wrote and produce the song.For the rest of her album I we’ll be hearing the same thing since the producers now recycle beats.I don’t know about this one, but we’ll see.

Really NOT feelin this…damn, she used to be my favorite back when she was hitting the EXTRA high notes!!!

Like it, but yeah it is typical Mariah…. but hey stick to what is working if it works keeping working it! lol… I would still buy her cd!

Not feeling this at all. She needs to stop with the corny 16 year old lyrics. Its not cute!!! I hope she does better with her second single because if not, ppl will be VERY disappointed and Mariah’s ass will go back to Glitter days circa 2001, and I for 1, don’t want to see that happen again! Better luck next time Mimi…

@ 170

We can only imagine how many Billboard Awards MJ would have if the awards were given out during his OFF THE WALL and THRILLER eras.

i love it!!!!! TOUCH MY BODY!!!!!! WHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHEEEEEEEEEEEEWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!

Even though this song was produced by THE DREAM, it has that JD sound all over it.

Loved the knowledge dropped about JJ.. But this MC song I think its okay. I too want better from her. Leave this type of fuckery to Ciara and Rhianna altho that’s my girl but I want Mariah to come out with something stronger.

This track is kosher….. but I think it sounds like an intro or an interlude for the next hot song on the album. Almost like it’s about to introduce the HOTTEST track on her album. I like it though.

What’s funny to me is that Mariah hasn’t lost her fans- with her crossing over and all. think about it. When Tommy first introduced her, she was Pop, like when Clive marketed Whitney. And the success went through the roof! But when they seem to cross into mainstream of what I like to call R&Pop, Whitney didn’t do so well. Take Michael Jackson’s Invincible. I loved Floetry written “Butterfly”. As most of us R&B heads today, loved that album. But critics killed it. Janet teamed with Nelly, we saw for ourselves what happened to her album.
So all is to say……..
I like the song, but what I said in the beginning still stands

Very predictable and typical of Mariah. I’m not at the least bit impressed with this song. If this is how the album will sound, I’m just gonna burn it.

obviously she can do better as we have heard better. songs like this only hit #1 cuz its bashed into your head by radio stations and you’re forced to like it. not her best work by far and definitely not classic mariah.

MARIAH IS THE QUEEN OF POP, AND THIS TRACK IS BOUNCY LIKE SHAKE IT OFF WAS, A REAL NICE R&B TRACK, MARIAH IS THE SHIT!!! I LOVE HER SWAGGER, I FIND IT SOOO SEXY! SHE CAN GET IT! THE I LOVE ABOUT MARIAH, IS HOW FAST SHE BE FLOWING ON TRACKS, BEYONCE BE DOIN THAT TOO! THEY SING BUT THEY FLOW LIKE BONE THUGS DO! THAT SHIT IS HOT!

I absolutely love Mariah, and to me she can’t do no wrong.

But this song doesn’t really seem like single material to me….I mean I guess it does it’s job cuz the chorus gets stuck in my head.

But I’m sure she is gonna come out with a fyre second single…cuz Like that wasn’t my favorite either, but I loved WBT

Love this track my girl is bizaaaaaaaack.

I cant wait to hear this in the club with my drink in hand and flirting with a cute guy, or poolside with a hot lil bikini on.

Such a sexy breezy joint.

And love the album title very creative.

As for the Janet and Mariah hemming and hawing, i think it unfair both ladies are known for two totally diff things, but women are tralblazers, pioneers, and our generations legends , i’m glad both ladies are back with what seems to be some good spring summer music.

I like it. Can’t wait to see the video.

i like it. i’m glad she didn’t oversing this song.
it sounds playful….almost like foreplay.

don’t need her vocals climaxing on a song that probably isn’t meant for that purpose.

ya dig?

This song is catchy…Mariah knows how to work a hook, it’s pretty and the melody is contagious. Yes, the lyrics are a little young, but the song is playful and not too obviously sexy….I like the metaphors, I like the subtly.

Mariah is going to come with the fire the second single, what ever it is, no doubt. But this is a nice, solid introduction to her new album.

Big Up Mariah!

JANET N MARIAH WILL BE ON TRL ON FEB 25TH TOGETHER!!!!!!!!!1

dis is going to be a good year for music this a real good song im really feeling it..reminds of the old mariah love it

I LOVE THIS SONG!! MIMI ALWAYS HAS A GREAT COMEBACK AND I’M SO HAPPY SHE COMING BACK!

NI@@@AS KILL ME!!!! HOW YOU COMPARING JANET AND MARIAH. TWO DIFFERENT SOUNDS AND TWO DIFFERENT TYPES OF SUCESSES. NO ONE TURNS ON A JANET TRACK WHEN YOU WANNA HEAR SOMEONE SING THEIR HEART OUT. THATS WHAT MARIAH IS FOR. ON THE FLIPSIDE, NO ONE TURNS ON A MARIAH VIDEO OR GOES TO A MARIAH CONCERT TO SEE A OUTSTANDING PERFORMANCE. THATS WHAT JANET IS FOR. IT’S LIKE COMPARING APPLES AND ORANGES. IT’S LIKE COMPARING CIARA AND MONICA. TWO DIFFERENT STYLES! BTW THE TRACK IS AT BEST AVERAGE! I WAS HOPING FOR MORE.

MARIAH may write her own lyrics.. but they all sound the same, premature, immature, corny, and typical.. her LYRICS have never impressed me.. it sounds like something a highschool girl can come up with..

and this song is cute. but i really expected better… especially since she was bragging on her music. .and how much she is in love with the album..

and she serious needs to humble herself.. before this album becomes a flop..

Janet and Mariah on TRL together? Island Def Jam ain’t playing.

I dont think so MIMI! GURL CHEK YA SELF!

for those already labeling this album a flop….i hope people judge y’all based off the first word/sentence outta ur mouth too.

lol.

folks ask for her to sing about something more than rainbows…candy….little girl shyt.
now the woman’s singing about the same shyt grown women be thinking about (if not saying)….being a little more sexual than what she’s used to & whatnot…..and she’s still getting booed. youtube, kinda corny, yep….but guess what, it’s completely relevant to 2008. wendy williams reference, corny, yep……still relevant though (esp. to those who live in NY….like MC).

lol.

folks are funny.

ion know about y’all…..but my life doesn’t follow the same script everyday. ion wanna hear the same message in my music over & over either.

i know this much though…..if she came out w/ another WBT type ballad…..people would be clowning on her for singing the same type of song. she can’t win for losing, and i’m sure she knows this.

so, do what u gotta do MC. you can’t please everybody all the time. but for what it’s worth…..i like it.

I don’t understand why anyone would think ALL of mariah’s song are corny and immature? How about Fly Like a Bird, We Belong Together, My Saving Grace and so many more. She is a living Legend and is just keeping up with the times. I guarantee this song will be No 1 just like her album will.

Nice joint. I love how she rides the beat. Go Mariah!

i’m feeling this song evn the cheesy lyrics i best not catch this flick on youtube i will hunt you down straight gangsta lol. big up mc!!
