Mariah Carey: Shake it Off

Shake it Off was released as the third single from The Emancipation of Mimi. It followed We Belong Together as a single, a tough spot for any single to be in. However, it almost made it to #1. But at that time Kanye West was rising to popularity so it didn't quite get there.

Mariah Carey: Vulnerability

The eighth track on Mariah Carey's album entitled Rainbow is called Vulnerability and it is an interlude. It is short in length but it includes lyrics found in Rainbow's lead single, Heartbreaker. It's kind of refreshing since I have never come to appreciate it until now considering my love for the lead single itself and the remix of Heartbreaker that is included on Rainbow.

Mariah Carey: I Stay in Love

I Stay in Love was released as the fourth and final single from Mariah Carey's eleventh studio album entitled E=MC^2. E=MC^2 remains one of my favorite Mariah Carey albums of all time. It didn't do as well as its predecessor, entitled The Emancipation of Mimi. However it did much better than Mariah Carey's most recent release, Me. I am Mariah... The Elusive Chanteuse.

Mariah Carey: We Belong Together

We Belong Together remains Mariah Carey's best single in my opinion. It spent fourteen nonconsecutive weeks at #1. It's tied therefore with some other singles which have achieved the same feat. However, no other artist besides Mariah herself has achieved anything greater. One Sweet Day spent sixteen weeks at #1.

Mariah Carey: Don't Forget About Us

Don't Forget About Us was released as the fourth single from The Emancipation of Mimi, that is the re-issue of The Emancipation of Mimi. I own it on compact disc as I have in my possession the platinum edition of that album. I love the platinum edition of The Emancipation of Mimi. It comes with a DVD including four music videos released from that album on that DVD.

Mariah Carey: Me. I am Mariah... The Elusive Chanteuse

Me. I am Mariah... The Elusive Chanteuse was released as Mariah Carey's most recent studio album, making it her fourteenth. It was released during the year that was 2014 which was kind of special considering it was her fourteenth. However, that is taking into account her two Christmas albums, which I don't often do because those albums are rare and different.

Mariah Carey: I Stay in Love [Jody den Broeder House mix]

The Jody den Broeder House mix of I Stay in Love by Mariah Carey is absolutely amazing. Mariah Carey never ceases to amaze me. She is planning a release later this year, 2015, revolving around her #1 Billboard hits. It's the second take on her #1's compilation album that was released at the turn of the most recent century.

Madonna: Bad Girl

Wow, the album version of Bad Girl is very exciting. The Music video version and the Music video itself of Bad Girl is also exciting. Madonna looks amazing in it, but when doesn't she? I think Madonna is one of the most attractive persons on the face of the planet. She has beautiful eyes, an amazing complexion and extraordinary features, above and beyond that.

Madonna: Incredible

Incredible is a track included on Madonna's eleventh Studio album and that album is entitled Hard Candy. Incredible was written by Pharrell Williams and Madonna. Incredible was produced by The Neptunes and co-produced by Madonna. The Neptunes consist of Pharrell Williams and one other person; it's an amazing production duo, in my opinion.

Madonna: I'll Remember

I'll Remember was released as the theme from With Honors. With Honors was an ok movie. I think I watched it once. It was exciting at the time, but mostly because of the theme song. I can't remember where they played it but it was most definitely the highlight for me, that is the theme. I'll Remember was released in 1994, along with the movie With Honors.

Madonna: Erotica [WO 12"]

The WO 12" of Erotica is very exciting. Found on the maxi-single for Erotica, the album artwork for the maxi-single of Erotica is out of this world. Madonna is dressed as Dita, a fictional character, as far as I know. However, it's one of the hottest things I have ever seen, no pun intended.

Madonna: Madonna [Studio album]

Madonna's self-titled debut Studio album is pretty amazing. Released over thirty years ago, sometimes it's difficult to determine that it's that old. Containing such hits as Holiday and Lucky Star, I am in love with Madonna's debut Studio album even to this day.

Madonna: The Immaculate Collection

The Immaculate Collection was released at the end of 1990, just in time for the Holiday season. It consists of Madonna's most popular hits preceding its release and two new tracks. It followed the release of I'm Breathless, a soundtrack album released in support of the Motion Picture, Dick Tracy. However, I'm Breathless was only one of three of those types of albums. Vogue was included on I'm Breathless and it precedes the two new tracks that were available on The Immaculate Collection.

Madonna: Justify My Love [Orbit 12" mix]

The Orbit 12" mix of Justify My Love is pretty extraordinary. Found on the maxi-single for Justify My Love, it appears as the second track on that single, with the album version from The Immaculate Collection of Justify My Love, preceding it. However, there is also a track on that single that I also love, above and beyond the Orbit 12" mix of Justify My Love, and that would be the Beast Within Mix of Justify My Love; as relevant as ever in this day and age.

Alicia Keys: Karma

Karma was included as the second track on Alicia Keys' second studio album entitled, The Diary of Alicia Keys. Karma is a great track. I highly believe in karma as a philosophy; even though it is a Hindu philosophy. However you can find similar philosophies in other religions, like Christianity where you are a sinner and must pay for your sins.

Alicia Keys: No One

No One was released as the lead single from As I Am. It was a great choice for the lead single. However, in my opinion, some of the other singles released from As I Am and richer in content. One of my other favorite singles from As I Am is entitled Like You'll Never see Me Again.

Alicia Keys: Superwoman

Superwoman was released as the fourth and final single from As I Am. As I Am, was released as the third studio album by Alicia Keys. It was my very first Alicia Keys album. I then followed up with some individual MP3s from Alicia Keys; and then I just recently bought her first two albums.
