i dont really get the concept…or the purpose of Nick Cannon..

BUT SHE LOOKS GREAT!!!

Nice. Somewhat matches the concept, and Mariah looks great as usual

I think the concept is really good. However, what’s up with this Nick Cannon and Mariah Carey marriage thing? I am thinking its a joke cuz Nick Cannon is in the vid? Damn!!! dude got a lot of swagger and boldness to get that chick…lol. Nice vid though.

The song is so-so……..The video is nothing new….The Nick Cannon rumors
are comical…..But, Mariah Carey is one fine ass 37yr old crazy b!tch….

I guess I dont really get the beginning of the video with her and Nick Cannon together, especially if this song is about Death…Overall the video was wack, could of been better such a shame because its a nice song but because the video is wack its not going to go anywhere but cause more gossip between her and Nick cannon ( Is it just me but did anyone notice how fine he is?)

the song is nice eeven it sounds like i heard this type of thing from mariah befor but she looks amazing

Why is Nick Cannon in this again? lol I get the whole their married thing, but what is the point. . . lol other than that, I think Mimi looks great, I guess it wasnt photoshoop after all.

nNck is mighty Fine, loll 2 bad his a player loll …

who said the song was necessarily about death…..it can apply to anybody who loses someone whether it be DEATH, the end of a friendship, or relationship. I got the concept of the video..she seemed to get to busy for her boyfriend and by the end of it he was not seen anymore..and i liked the way it ends with pictures and videos of people that may have lost…..

i love the lyrics!!!! its relatable–go mariah dew ya thaNg!!!!!! see me @ #1 AGAIN!!!!haha–in your face.

video–but the song is better

I thought her and Nick looked cute together in the video, don’t really get why he is in it but they look good together none the less

Ummmm.. maybe Nick is in this video because they really are together. I mean if she is showing snapshotso f her life and all.. That swimsuit photo shoot looks like the one for the new magazine cover coming out.. But man, she and Nick Cannon don’t even look right together,,

As for the song.. I recently lost a fmaily memeber and I can feel what she singing about. Right time in my life for this song. I really like it.

ITS GOING STRAIGHT TO #1!

I LOVE IT!

P.S– so what’s up with Nick Cannon pipe game ! he’s getting all sorts of hot chicks!

The video was ok. Yes nick is fine and mariah looks good too.

Ummmm, yeah, I guess so…the only reason I can think for Nick being in the video if free publicity. He’s been kind of low key in the spotlight for a while and what greater way than to make cameo in a Mariah Carey video and marry her a few days before the video leaks. *sarcasm* I don’t know about ya’ll but I want to go out and buy all of Nick Cannon’s movies and Mariah’s CD’s. I can hardly contain myself…

Damnit if you’re gonna pull a publicity stunt you call Silly Ricky aka Raz-B’s brother and make sure he approves of it first!!!

this video’s a copy cat of luther vandross- dance with my father

The song is nice but I don’t understand why nick cannon is in the video. I mean, the song is called “bye bye” for the people who lost some one important. If Nick was dead and she watching all this footage, it would actually fit. But with that being said, she looks sexy as hell, especially for a 38 y.o. Just like Janet.

AND SPEAKING OF JANET, WHEN THE HELL IS SHE GONNA PUT OUT ANOTHER SONG????

I thought he directed the video

Anyway I like the song, it’s so Mariah and I got the video to mean losing someone through death or just drifting apart.

And these marriage rumors better be a joke!!!!

i love this

this song is amazing, & the video is the bomb

all u people hatin on thier union yall need to stop lol nick is actually a good catch hes young has a promisin career had a hit tv show n hes a positive black brotha n hes very good lookin each time i met him hes soo tha opposite as the “corny” guy he speaks well damn im rambling tha vid made me cry cause tha song is so meaningful damn mariah u cant do wrong in my eyes yeaaa

i cant stop listening 2 this song

I love the song but Mariah and Nick didn’t get married. That is all just publicity for the video and for the ablum. Thats just my opinon. I’ll put my foot in my mouth later on if I find out they are really married and it actually lasts.

wat!!, i didnt know that she was making this a single. i reaally adore this song & video

I thought the video was boring…UNTIL I REALIZED THAT…Mariah is a Genius, because she’s basically playing the video down so that people can CONCENTRATE ON THE LYRICS!!!!! This song is another Mariah classic and people can’t hate on it this early, because lets not forget…Everyone HATED “Touch My Body,” and a month later, those SAME HATERS bought the single, which marked MARIAH HISTORY!!!

THE ONLY REASON Nick Cannon is in this video is because he is going to be in her next single video for “Love Story.” It will be a continuation, much like “It’s Like That” & “We Belong Together,” with that actor Wentworth Miller who played the love interest in both videos.

I love the part where Mariah is shooting her VIBE COVER in this “Bye Bye” video, because it’s the same cover that everyone hated on in the Concrete Loop previous post, but you cannot deny that Mariiah looks AMAZING on the Cover and even More Amazing shooting the cover in this video (She’s 38 has an 18 year old body, and yet old enough to show it off without being trashy, lets not hate on that!!!)

FINALLY, Mariah is NOT married to Nick Cannon…DUH!!! She’s with Mark Sudack, her record exec. and the wedding rumors are for Mariah and MARK!!! Nick Cannon is just a decoy for this video and the real wedding (since we all know Mariah is super secret, and lets not forget extremely faithful and would NOT make silly choices in marriage).

Only Mariah’s REAL FANS would know that!!!!!!!!!!!

thanks 4 this post cl, i love this song, the video is cute,and she looks good

Yeah, and for the record, she looks the same to me from the Magazine shoot and the video. So, I dont think there was much photoshop done there.

And, it’s rumored (from her fan club boards) that this video is going to coincide with her next video. In other words, the reason for Nick being in the video will be answered in her next.

I think Nick and Mariah look absolutely beautiful together. That is one handsome guy. I like funny guys. I hope that Mariah and Nick are happy although they have folk burning candles, praying to the devil, and wishing on fallen stars that they geT a divorce, or not be even married at all. They probably are gonna say the same thing when Janet marries someone the public has deemed is beneath her(Jermaine ). How can we say whats good for them and we dont even know who they really are? We only know this facade that they show’s us. I would be stupid to think that I know who Mariah , Nick , or even Janet should be married to, or who is better for them. I hope they are married.

this is such a beautiful song!!!

#27, Jeremy…I guess we posted at around the same time! LOL

#30 baby im wit u def n yall now realizin nick is fione i guess yall couldnt get past his comedic ways

There video is beautiful with a beautiful message. I’m sooo glad to hear something slow from Mariah.

agree with everyone that said this will be mariah 19th numba one, incredible song

I actually like the video. I must admit MC and Nick look pretty good together. Mariah is at her best when she is in a pair of jeans and a top singing and not doing all the over the top ish!!

THAT’S MARIAH’S DADDY!!!

The man in the Black & White photos towards the end!!!

THIS IS WHO SHE DEDICATED THE SONG TOO!!!

SO SAD AND YET SO SWEET!!!

The SONG is more important than the VIDEO

That’s why Mariah didn’t make an actual video.

That was so smart, because this song is Absolutely Brilliant!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

POST #27 is exactly what I was thinking. . .

yes #29 good point
this will be her 19th #1

Her dad actually came out quite a bit in the video.

I also noticed that she has a picture of her famous Dog, Jack…I wonder if he died?

I love me some Nicky, I have for years…but I cant understand why he is in this video. It just dont fit the concept of the song.

Nice song but the video is okay

I was looking at the butterfly ring and made me think of her old song Butterfly and how it was horses in the video. Lmao don’t why I thought of that.

2 all the no life rejects who were saying that she was photoshop watch the vid again & i really loved what 27 & 29 said

At 3:32 that is Jack and that is an old picture of Mariah…so that’s why now there is speculation that he died.

*blank stare* ok what the hell does the first 3 minutes of that video (before the footage of people and pets that are no longer with us) have to do with the song?…and how random is nick cannon’s cameo? if he’s gonna be in the next video then just put him in the next one where his appearance makes more sense and is not so random! duh!…can mariah please do a video where shes not singing the song in slow mode with the wind blowing through her hair while shes wearing a tight or mid-driff bearing outfit???…i love her music but im over the videos…i thought this video would be different. she should cut the first 3 minutes and extend the last part…its the only part that made any sense!

hmm?

1.She lost too much weight
2.Hate the cheesy stage performance
3.She’s gonna hate this video when her & Nick divorce in real life
4.WHY DID SHE DO AVIDEO FOR THIS SONG WHEN THERE ARE SOOOOOO MANY BETTER SONGS ON THE ALBUM???! /Vent

mariah is the queen, she knows what the industry likes

Love this song. Mariah looks hella good. She needs to hook me up with her diert.

HANDS DOWN , A BEAUTIFULL SONG & FUTURE NUMBR 1

Ah… Mariah’s looney fanatics. God bless yall…that is everyone that isn’t #27 in disguise, lol.

Anyway…I actually love the video. Good job Mimi!

I liked the video and the song. The vid was simple. And all the pics made me feel she was really presenting a part of herself .

she looks helluv like her pops….

Maaaaaan, I thought all these people ridin #27’s jock was a joke. I was like you would swear Jesus just spoke and everybody caught the Holy Spirit.

@ J. Lewis.

That was the same crazy Mariah fan! I was like damn what did 27 say?! Went and checked the i.p. address and it was the same person. It’s not that serious! LMAO!

Lol@ J. Lewis. Man Ima MC fan and all, but reading all those responses to #27 comment is kinda serious to some ppl. I digg the message to the song and I think she looks and sounds really good.

@ Angel, hell naw. People just have too much time on their hands lmao…

Love the song! The video is ok, Dont really get the point of a love interest in a song like this but to each its own I guess.

Mariah LOOKS GOOD!!!! I feel you #27. LOL @54…….you are about right!!!

Amateurish and boring. Is there a concept/theme behind it? Because I honestly can’t match the video with the lyrics of the song. Everything is just jumping around the place. Also, Nick is so stiff on here, and is Mariah’s head permananently bent to the side or something?

I really like the song, and JayZ’s rap on the remix is crazy! What a shame that they didn’t put more creative effort into making the video.

Angel….what’s been up with the comments coming up missing? At first there were 80 something comments now there are 57? Happened the other day too….

but the video was okay

loving so pretty her n nick def. married lol.

@ 61.

As I was telling J. Lewis. One of Mariah’s fans spammed the comments and posted the same comment under different alias. That person violated the commenting rules and is now banned. Happens all the time, that’s why I moderate.

@27 You got be typin all this. Never have i seen so many people agree on this blog. Over 6 people like your comment. You didn’t say anything that profound anyway….seems a little fishy to me LOL!!!

Mariah I love the video and the song. Very nice song. #1 all the way. If this isn’t and Touch My Body was then something is truly wrong. This song has a old Mariah vibe to it and I love it!

i just wanted to tip my hat to nick cannon for bagging ANOTHER beautiful woman of color. Song is nice, wish the vid wasnt so low budget

Thanx for clarifying…..

@27 LOL To bad you can’t type back because i would love to know why you wasted your time typing all those comments. just stupid.

Love Me some Mariah! Sexy! You do you,baby.

the million dolla question is WHY IS NICK in it??

The video is aight, but the song is a banger. Go Mariah.

LMAO @ Angel catching someone post under different names. I tell you the stans are something else.

#5 yes i think its because he is with Mariah, Mariah makes Nick Cannon look sexy forreal lol I never looked at him how I did when I looked at him in this video he look reall good I think its because of MiMi tho lol when they seperate he wont look good no more

I know that was crazy because I kept going back to read what #27 said, and I was like wth what was so profound about that.

I like the song and the video has a nice concept but i got a few questions:

1) did da brats grandma died??? i remember her in the “in luv with you video”
2) did Jack die???
3) which one of those black men is her father??

Oh and if her and Nick are together i wish them all the best

I like it

tell me why those TWO BRAIDS on the top of her head is the most ethnic look i’ve ever seen Mariah in

i forgot she was part black

…comedy…

HE WAS SUPPOSED TO MARRY MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
I wish both of them well

#73… I believe her father is at 2:58, 3:09, 3:49, 3:59 and 4:03

It has never been confirmed that Jack has died, but now with this video it seems like he may have.

Nice video but the song is smeh.

Not buying the Nick Cannon rumors one bit.

I thought Jack, i think that’s her dogs name, was in one of those MTV commercials she was doing to promote her album (where snoop was the voice over for the dog). I thought that was him

I think this song sucks. Wow, it was awkwardly written and thrown together over a horrid beat.

U can def come harder than this Mariah, even though i’ve never cared too much for ur music but as far as i can tell, your last album’s singles were 100X better.

@78. That’s Jack Jr. Basically Jack’s replacement. People wondered why she got another dog and named him Jack Jr and that’s when everybody figured he was dead. She looks good in the video, but it does seem off at times. I liked the end with all the pictures of the people/pets lost, especially the old pics. The song is ok, but there are so many other songs that are better than this one. If she doesn’t release “I Stay In Love” soon…….

2;09 they are actually kissing

wow good for you NICK

You can’t deny that they look super CUTE together!!! I love them together if the whole rumor thing is true. (i hope it is) although nick is a strong man cos we all know that mariah carey is super EXTRA!

Thanks #77 aka ONE LOVE…..

LMAO @ #79 aka TRUTH80…. “Jack jr”

I didn’t realise how good they look together until i watched this video…

i never noticed that nick cannon was so fine… like omd hw jealous i ws feeling when i was watchin dat!!!

anyways if those rumours are true, congrats to derm, i already started counting tha days till they get divorced!

love tha song bt that video is kinda nt going with tha whole meaning to the song

She looks great, but still crazy as hell, lol. Nick Cannon, PLEASE!!!! Is that her same little dog Jack that she’s always had?

I loooove this song!!! It made me cry the first time I heard it.
But the best song on the album is Stay in Love and I hope she releases that; i doubt it because shes releasing Love story next.

The video was cute, funny to see Mariah with the braids lol and her and nick actually look cute together.

WHY SHE COME OUT WITH THIS, AND NOT THANKS FOR NOTHIN? ANYWAYS, I NEVER DID LIKE THIS SONG ON THE ALBUM, BUT THE REST IS FIRE….

I liked that I feel its one of Mariahs realest videos

I would love the remix with Jay-z I want a video for that

I love it! She looked nice! But the remix with Jay-Z is better!
♥[[Tiara]]

All her songs ou starting to sound the same to me..Didn’t Nick JUST break up with the last chick not too long ago ?? IT’s funny how quick celebs fall in and out of love..All the women he’s had,he kept for a lil while,then DUMPED them..we’ll see how long he keeps Mariah around

Video was cool….I think Her and Nick suprisingly look good together. I believe the rumors are true and hope they are happy! Need to stop the hate in ‘08 people!!!!!!

Love this CD, but this video is a cheap mess. WTF, this isn’t like Mariah she only makes cheap b-side videos for RnB remixes (my all remix, Always be my baby remix with DaBrat and Xscape).

This video should have been timeless, not have some cheap video footage of her time in the UK. A mess. I’m very disappointed. The ending of the video is where the emotional core lies…when it should have been throughout and her glamour “hair blowing” shots are corny and tired it’s like she walked off the set of We Belong Together onto this set but she’s thinner. This is NOT like Benny Medina. he’s known to enforce bright, powerful, sexy videos with the diva looking incredible.

They need to release, That Chick, Thanks for Nothing…….but instead they choose corny love story and bye bye…..i see a misiake

I like the video. ANd if Nick & Mariah are married, well then they are just married then. Aint nothing we can do about it but voice our opinion. If they love each other and are truly married, then may God bless both of them and their union. I love both Nick & Mariah. I’m a die hard fan of both so if they like it, I love it and wish them both nothing but the best married or not.

hmmmm…

@84, that’s what she named him. JJ, which stands for Jack Jr. Yeah the old dog named Jack seen in all her video’s prior to this album is dead.

I agree with #27, just kidding.

They actually look good together, who would of thought. I can believe that they are married, think about it. Nick most likely had a crush on her since he was little. LOL, and he seems like he falls in love quickly and Mariah just wanted to be married and she is a little coo coo for cocoa puffs.

wow!! she looks good on this video. what kinda workout plan is she on cause she was chubby! I like the concept of the video with her dad and all of those in her life that have passed on. I think Nick is in there to flaunt their relationship, but they look cute and if they are together I hope it works out..

Mariah usually looks great, but It’s amazing how much younger she looks with her hair pulled back in braids/a ponytail etc. I like the way they shot the video. It is reminiscent of the “Thank God I Found You (Make It Last Forever)” remix. It also reminds me of the throwback Mariah b/c she has on more clothes in this video (with the exception of the mini skirr)
Btw, there is only so much a computer can do regarding enhancements- the lady looks GREAT! It’s great to see the shot of her & Luther. Their “Endless Love” is better than the original. The pic of Da Brat with her grandmother is too cute.
It’s funny that some people hate the video b/c usually people are tearing Mariah down for being over the top. She does the stripped down video, and people are still complaining. LOL

Mariah, I hope my song “Lovin’ You Long Time” is on tap next!

@ 76 RaRa:

She had an entire head full of braids for the “Thank God I Found You (Make It Last Forever)” remix

#81, Yes JJ “Jack Jr” is in the actual video and she had both dogs. But in the end at 3:32 that is a picture of Jack. I’m a HUGE Mariah fan and am a member of her fan club, and just yesterday a lot of the fans noticed the picture and now we are all thinking he died.

The video is corny, but she looks good as hellz…..but NICK CANNON? W.T.F….it ain’t tru..she’s with marc sudack, something fishy is going on here…..

at 38years old, this is about as stupid as the justin/janet nipplegate.

Mariah, focus on making QUALITY videos, for songs that people relate to…like this, Thanks for Nothin, and I Stay in Love and she’d be good.

Nick Cannon, is a child.

Didn’t really get the whole Nick Canon thing but I love the song it kinda makes me sad but then uplifts me towards the end. Anyways I liked it and Mariah looks great.

She takes care of her sister’s daughter - her sister died from AIDS. Much respect to Mariah. It was reported that Nick directed the video and all his cameo’s could be their version of ‘03 Bonnie & Clyde - their coming out (like Beyonce and Jay which was a dope idea - record and video). Dope too that she had her sidekick Da Brat in there who was also reported to be at the wedding. I say congrats to them. They’re both on their grind and both rich as hell. Hope Nick doesn’t cheat on her or drop her though like he did all the rest.

Well I guess its real that they are married but anyways I do like that song a lot and the video, dont get way he was in it. i guess she wanted to show good times of the people she love. I sometimes can’t even listen to this song cause it makes me cry.

This song is amazing. Such a nice contrast to ‘Touch My Body’. Everyone that hated Touch My Body’(despite it being a #1 record breaking smash hit) should like this one better.

Nice song but the concept of the video don’t make sense.

she looks more like TINy here, she’s a beautiful woman

I’m still tring to figure it out. Is Mariah trying to convince us she’s a teenager with the tight clothes? the dog, the butterflies, the overdone eye-lid batting? I don’t get it. Are you a grown woman or a teen trying to pretend she’s grown? We all know you’re over 30 Mimi so what is the deal? I’m not feeling this song, Love Story however is HOT.

awwww. i love dis video. most of the events that she was at was in london. i like the pics that are used to remember those who have passed away. its such a personal song.

da 1 fing dat ruined dis video was…………………..NICK CANNON.

ok, da guy is funny on his show, but i dont really like him as a person as i see him on TV . mimi can do better than him. im not bein rude but i dont think their marriage will last. congrats to them if they r married but they may be proving us wrong in da end.

apparently, mariah is reportly engaged 2 her music producer who helped her with her last album. if this is true good for mariah 4 hidin her relationship and using nick as a decoy. but is this fake cause nick wants 2 b advertised. WHO KNOWS??? does he have an album comin out?, a nu season of wild n out? WAT? dis is makin ma brain confused. LOL.

OR

IS THIS PART OF ASHTON KUTCHER’S SHOW ON E! POP FICTION.

I like the song and the video!!

I LOVE THIS SONG BUT THE VIDEO DOESN’T MAKE SINCE TO ME TILL THE END WHEN THEY SHOW HER FATHER AND HER WITH OTHER CELEBS.

Congrats to Mariah for snagging a young in! You go girl!

I just LOVE this song, what a great song writer she is.
The video is nice, reminds me a bit of the old mariah..

beautiful song and video! she looks great.

however, i still dont get the whole nick cannon relationship…or excuse me, MARRIAGE rumors or his relevance in this video…

songs beautiful video sux but mariah looks very beautiful

whether she wit nick or not they make a cute couple in the video and nick does look extra good for whatever reason….i cud care less who shes wit personally.

i love this song and the video.

aww i like it!
mariah looks GREAT!
i wish she would just make a video for all of her songs on E=MC2 because they all have single potential. esp cruise control or love story or last kiss or heat or.. yeah you get the ideaa lol

i thought i saw new york in the video.

Beautiful Song ….

The song is cool but why did she decide that this should be the next single? She have so many other hot songs on her album, I can’t believe she chose this one.

KIngs and Queens: Mariah, Mary J, Madonna, Janet, and R Kelly- always reinventing themselves and keeping up with the generation I love y’all forever

THAT VIDEO WAS THE FREAKIN BEST!!! IT REMINDS ME OF ONE SWEET DAY AND FOR THE PEOPLE WHO DIDN’T GET THE PURPOSE OF NICK’S CAMEO OBVIOUSLY THAT WAS EITHER THEIR WEDDING SHOWER OR EXCERPTS FROM THEIR WEDDING AND SHE PROBABLY DEICATED IT TO HIM TO SAY SHE NEVER WANTS TO SAY “BYE BYE”
..aww i like the pic wit her cat and the other wit odb he really helped her career as far as hip hop fans
im OFFICIALLY GETTING ALBUM HER SONGS ARE ALWAYS INSPIRATIONAL

@ #27 THE “REAL” mARIAH FAN DON’T U FEEL STUPID SAYING THE WEDDING WAS FAKE - GUESS U AINT WATVH OPRAH! LMAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAO

all of her songs soooound the same now. what happened?

i like the song n the vid..but like y is nick in there, is he dead? come on now. AND STOP WITH THE LIES MARIAH, YALL AINT MARRIED!!

I love mariah carey and what she do and i hope she and cannon will stay and will be together 4 ever and i am happy to know that they are happy together i will always be nice to try something new to some one else……………. I………………….. LOVE ………………………U ………………….MARIAH………………………..
