These days she's fodder for tabloid writers and late-night comics, but way back in the '90s Mariah Carey ruled the charts. This two-disc collection offers up evidence why, for better or worse, Mariah's five-octave, pop/R&B stylings set the diva standard. Greatest Hits culls its offerings from Carey's five albums on Sony (she is now signed to Virgin), and you get all the facets of her platinum-plus sound. From the soulful smolder of her 1990 debut "Vision of Love" (still one of her best tracks) to the coyer-than-thou duet with Jay Z ("Heartbreaker"), Carey thrills, trills, and hits notes that only canines comprehend. Fans will gobble this collection up, but inclusion of some of Carey's more adventuresome remixes (e.g. the Puffy-produced "Fantasy," featuring ODB) might have made this package more noteworthy. --Amy Linden

If you only buy one album in your life..........2007-05-18

...this is the one. Miriah has defined and redefined pop music throughout her illustrious career, and this album brings the entire journey together in one dynamic, brilliant package. This duo CD set showcases all of Miriah's favorites, in addition to most of her #1 hits. One of my favorite aspects of this album is that some of the songs are not even technically "hits"; rather, they are Miriah's personal favorites (i.e. "Butterfly"). This amazing performer's five-octave range, coupled with her impeccable sense of pitch, dynamics, and musicality, along with her unmatched emotional drive, put her, in my opinion, in the position of Greatest Vocalist of All Time. If you like her even a little, buy the album. You will love it. If you don't like her, buy the album. Listening to it only once or twice will cause you to fall in love with the undeniable force that is Miriah Carey's voice.

Magnificent!.......2007-01-09

Carey's first post-divorce effort makes passing allusions to her ex-hubby (and label honcho) Tommy Mottola, but it doesn't dwell on them the way many similar projects do. Instead, Carey is right back to her old tricks; cooing trademark melismatic spirals through sexy, beat-heavy hits. Fans will dig the bedroom slink of "Baby Doll," the dripping "Honey" and the infectious title track (reprised, along with a bit of Elton John's "Skyline Pigeon," in "Fly Away"). The highlight is a duet with Dru Hill on Prince's "The Beautiful Ones," which just might be her most pointed commentary on Mottola. --Michael Ruby

This is a must have cd.

a butterfly that kicked tommy motolla to the curb.......2007-02-06

late 1997 and early 1998 was a great time for the divas, with each of them releasing personal albums that contained the most creative work of their careers. Janet with velvet rope, Madonna with ray of light and Mariah with butterfly. This one was the leader in the pack. Honey was such a successful single and the video showed mariah in a much sexier light than ever before. The first single was followed by the title track Butterfly. Although the video was dissed by critics the music spoke for itself. Next the roof was released and that's when I finally went out to buy the CD and discovered other gems like breakdown, baby doll and the beautiful ones. I didn't appreciate whenever you call until recently, but it's probably one of her best songs ever. The way this album flows was also really well done. Mariah experimented with hip hop for the first time on an album and it worked great. I love the fact that this is still listenable 10 years later and not outdated like the new jill swing r&b that was still lingering and the timbaland hip hop sound emerging at the time.

2nd buy.......2007-01-10

I had the tape and the CD of this one, had to get it AGAIN. I can't play this enough. The cover of Prince's Beautiful Ones is amazing. She blends so well with all the people she collaberates with.

Her Best Album!.......2006-12-05

I love this album sooooo much!!! it had so many greta songs in it. I remember when i first got it I never tried to listen to any songs that weren't singles, so i would only listen to Honey, My All & Butterfly (i didn't know about Breakdown or Roof). One day i was bored and decided to listen to every song. All i can say is DAMN. i been missin out. I instantly fell inlove with breakdoown, roof, 4th of july, Whenever You Call, & The Beautiful Ones. Ever since then, every time i buy a cd, i listen to every song because i literally went months of only listening to the singles. Unfortunately i let someone (who loved mariah) borrow my cd and they never gave it back....guess who? my english teacher!!! every day she =had an excuse of why she didn't bring it or it was in her car! Now you now if a teacher would steal a cd from her student, than that cd is worth buying..Believe me, your missing out until you get this!

One of the main reasons I absolutely LOVE Mariah Carey!.......2006-11-02

This is probably the best Mariah Carey album ever released and I know that's completely opinionated but this review, of course, is going to reflect my opinion. The first single `Honey' is still one of the most infectious, sexy and downright brilliant R&B / Hip-Hop tracks every released. Every time I hear this track I can see her music video and that makes it all the more wonderful (I'm sorry but I still hold strong to my belief that not only is she one of the most talented BUT ALSO one of the most beautiful women in the industry). Tracks like `Breakdown' and `The Roof' give Mariah her upbeat hip-hop groove while songs like the irresistible `Babydoll' dripping wet with sexuality prove that Mariah is the maiden of titillating bedside manor.

Tracks like the title track `Butterfly' give us that soft side of Mariah, those ballads that made her famous in the first place, and as far as ballads go, by far her best EVER is `My All' which gets me going every time I hear it. With the Spanish guitars at her side Mariah has never been so incredibly desirable. With every track here Mariah proves that she alone deserves the title of queen of R&B, and even though after this release she had her share of minor slumps, her brilliant `Emancipation of Mimi' album has her once again at the top of her game as if she never left. Definitely, one of the best all around albums, not only by Mariah but ever.

Mariah Carey's #1's is as much a time capsule of '90s pop and R&B as a record of one woman's chart toppers: the disc chronicles a shift from the sweet, nearly '50s-style "Vision of Love" to more recent hip-hop-lite grooves featuring heavy input from Puffy Combs ("Honey"), Jermaine Dupri ("Sweetheart"), and O.D.B. ("Fantasy"). Some hit, some miss, but all feature the fluttery swoops that Carey substitutes for expression of feeling. Depth is beside the point, but few of these tracks are even fun. Still, after eight years, there seems to be no stopping her, and this album will hardly break her streak of successes. --Rickey Wright

Customer Reviews:

Mariah Medley.......2007-06-13

This is a good Mariah compilation. Solid mix of dance and R & B music, with pop attibutes at times and a little rap thrown in other times. Showcase of Mariah's stuff up to that time. Notable songs:

Sweetheart - good bounce to it, an airy tune

Honey - fun and lively, good groove

Fantasy - fun tune from mid-90s that makes the listener want to dance around. Good beat. Showcases Mariah's soprano

Dreamlover

Emotions - very good showcase of Mariah's vocal range and the power of her voice. Funky piano in there.

Someday - Mariah's first "big one" from 1990 I think. Great tune, infectious pop with a hard edge. Mariah's powerful voice with its big range was already on display in her early 20s.

Could be better.......2007-02-13

Simply put this CD is missing anytime you need a friend and without you.

Before the style changed..........2006-10-13

This 1998 album was the last Mariah came out with before she stopped just flirting with and went full-speed into hip-pop, starting with 1999s "Rainbow" and going to last year's "The Emancipation of Mimi." Now, don't get me wrong, the woman has had a few good singles in this new hip-pop era of hers'; in fact I like all 4 of the big singles from "Mimi." However, the new output pales next to the fantastic POP songs on "#1s."

The album shows how good she was...huge ground-breaking ballads like "Love Takes Time" and "Hero," makes-me-want-to-cut-a-rug dance tracks like "Emotions" and "Someday." Plus her specialty, fabulous mid-tempo gems like "Always Be My Baby" and "Dreamlover." And who could forget one of the most popular songs of all time, "One Sweet Day" with Boyz II Men. The single spent 16 freaking weeks at #1 on the Hot 100, more than any other song ever! Plus, this album shows how good she was when she just flirted with hip-hop, on the 2 great cuts "Fantasy" (although not this tacky version with ODB, but the original album version) and "Honey."

There are so many good songs missing that didn't make #1, so get "Greatest Hits" for those. In fact, just get "Greatest Hits" because it includes almost everything on here plus good stuff like "Can't Let Go" "Make It Happen" "Without You" "Anytime You Need a Friend" the aforementioned "Fantasy" original version and "Butterfly." I am disappointed because neither "#1s" or "Greatest Hits" has "Breakdown" with Bone-Thugz on it, one of my faves of Mariah's.

I wish Mariah would lose some of the "Hip" and gain back some of the "Pop" so she could make music as good as this again. This disc is as good as R&B/pop gets.

A Diva she maybe..........2006-04-14

but she's earned the right. This CD is a must have for all MC fans. Mariah has had an amazing career, despite her brief lapse a few years back, but everyone needs a little break now and then and I'm sure the whole situation was blown out of proportion. Actress she may not be, but this gal can sang. Highly Recommended.

Mariah Carey is amazing.......2006-04-01

Mariah Carey is one of the all-time best singers in music history. Her ability to hit typically unfathomable notes is, of course, her trademark and signature; but unlike some of her contemporaries, especially the late 90s and early 2000s pop stars like Britney Spears, her singing is the reason for her popularity, as it should be for any singer. Her #1's is a great CD, as are many compilation records by artists because they feature their big hits and not the filler from the actual studio releases. Impressively, Carey has had an incredible amount of singles but also an amazing number of No. 1's, more than any other female artist and rivaling only The Beatles and Elvis Presley. Even though #1's is not meant to be a Greatest Hits package (as Carey has said in the enclosed album art) like her official Greatest Hits CD released several years later, it certainly comes off as one. Mariah's voice remains powerful throughout the years as heard on #1's. Brilliant--certainly worth purchasing because it compiles the sound that made the 1990s.

Early buzz on The Emancipation of Mimi predicted that this would be the disc to mark "the return of the voice"--the voice being that glass-shattering instrument that propelled Carey to bestselling female artist of all time status--and mostly it is. But because of the small army of talent involved in its assembly, the album is way more than just a comeback vehicle. For proof, try straight-ahead, look-out-Beyonce-Mimi's-still-got-it "Mine Again," or '70s-soul cuddle-up, "Circles:" a don't-attempt-on-American-Idol love song, or the gospel dazzlers "Fly Like a Bird," and "Stay the Night." But for songs that steer this disc directly into 2005, no looking back, scan the jewel case for the tracks followed by the word "featuring": "To the Floor," with Nelly, bumps along to maximum booty-shaking effect, while Twista spins his natural-disaster-force vocals into "One and Only." Snoop Dogg, Pharrell Williams, and Jermaine Dupri also pitch in; between them and the highwire vocals, Emancipation works the kind of pure-pop magic that sets us all free. --Tammy La Gorce

"Fantasy" provides the only real transcendent chapter on this album. Reinterpreting Tom Tom Club's "Genius of Love" with a percolating dance beat, the single emphasizes everything that makes Mariah Carey great. Her voice swoops, squeals, and careens over the seductive rhythm, while the words capture just the right amount of vulnerability and determination. Unfortunately, the thrill is short-lived, as the multiplatinum singer soon falls back into typical adult-contemporary schlock and pointless vocal gymnastics, particularly on "Melt Away" and the bombastic cover of Journey's "Open Arms." --Aidin Vaziri

Customer Reviews:

She's always been the "Total Package".......2007-06-22

From the first time my ears heard her voice...i was in love with this talented diva like, American Musical Treasure. This is truly one of if not the best Mariah Carey Albums of all. I am a firm believer in the notion that some songs or artists should NOT be re-recorded...however Mariah does an excellant job of owning, even if only for this album, "Open Arms"...of course the original being from Steve Perry and Journey. There's Something about Mariah and the lyrics "Lying Beside Me"..."one Sweet Day" is a tear jerker for anyone who has ever had to say good~bye to a loved one...great song. "Always be My Baby" is a cute song for the lover in you..."Fantasy" is for the dancefloor with it's sample of "Genius Of Love" from the Tom Tom Club. Another personal fav' is "Melt Away". This is a beautiful woman "working it" with a voice that is another reason to believe in GOD because this voice could have only come from Heaven.

This is Mariah on point. Definitely her best album........2007-03-31

It has some pop, some R&B and even some dance music. From start to finish I can seriously listen to this CD. While Long Ago is the weakest track here, it doesn't make for a bad song. It just sounds a bit outdated.

My favorites are:

Open Arms
I Am Free
Fantasy
When I Saw You
and
Daydream Interlude.

Don't miss out on Mariah's best album, right behind it? Butterfly. Buy it today!! In fact, maybe you should buy two and share with a friend. ^_^

It's Just A Sweet Fantasy.......2007-02-26

This is one of Mariah's best albums, no matter what other people may say. It's either Daydream, Music Box, or Butterfly in my opinion. Here's the list of the songs
Fantasy - Great, but I love the Bad Boy Mix of it better
Underneath The Stars - Love this song. It's like a stepper's cut/slow jam. Perfect song for those summer nights.
One Sweet Day - You gotta love the colaboration with Boyz 2 Men. It's a sad song, but I love it
Open Arms - The Journey cover. Love Mariah's version - it's more of an R&B ballad
Always Be My Baby - Love it, and always had.
I Am Free - It's okay. Not the best song on the album
When I Saw You - Great song! Another ballad with great lyrics
Long Ago - The hip-hop jam. It's a nice song
Melt Away - Love this song. Another great ballad - it's one of those rainy day songs
Forever - More like a doo-wop song. Great!!
Daydream Interlude (Fantasy Sweet Dub Mix) - Love it, even though it's a shorter version of the Fantasy Sweet Dub Mix. The full mix is 8 minutes long and way better than the edited version.
Looking In - Love the song. Anyone can relate to it - the final ballad from the CD.
Overall, if you love Mariah's ballads, you'll love this CD

Mariah Carey's great debut.......2007-07-13

Mariah's debut is full of amazing songs. All the singles except for "There's Got To Be A Way" went to number one on the Billboard chart. That's quite a feat for any artist. Her vocals are amazing and this is some of her best singing and production in the history of her career. The non singles are good too such as "Sent Up From Above", "Alone In Love" and my favorite "All In Your Mind" which kind of has a reggae feel to it. She tackles various music styles that suit her voice perfectly. I don't really remember when she first came out but I got this album later used and enjoy listening to it from time to time. This album is a must have for any Mariah fan. It's even better than "The Emancipation of Mimi" which is saying alot. While I think "Charmbracelet'" is her best album this is still a great work of art from beginning to end. Highly reccomended for any Mariah/Mimi fan.

Mariah's debut is OK but it suffers from something..........2007-04-29

I spent minutes looking through these reviews, seeing all of the 5-star ratings. I was appalled at all of them because honestly, this CD is far from perfect. I do think that the singles she released are the best songs here: Vision of Love, I Don't Wanna Cry and Love Takes Time and Someday. I liked Vanishing and Alone In Love though. And Sent From Above was OK.
The rest is pretty forgettable. I also would like to add that this CD sounds so outdated these days. It really didn't age too well.

If anyone wants to see Mariah at her best, look to Daydream, her 4th album (excluding Merry Christmas).

--Adrian

What a debut!.......2007-01-20

Music was undergoing quite a change in 1990. So-called "hair" metal still ruled the charts (which I love to this day), but you could feel the change in the air and folks such as Mariah Carey coming onto the music scene breathed much needed fresh air into the increasingly stale music scene of that time.

While more in-depth reviews of her debut album can be found elsewhere here (and those folks can do a bit more justice to it than I could), I have to agree with the sentiment that she had an amazing voice and musical talent. The thing that really made me a fan (if only casual) was the fact that she wrote her own songs. Record company creation she was not, and that's a BIG plus in my book.

The album opens and closes with two classic 90s tunes - "Vision of Love" (which initially propelled Carey to the top of the pop charts) and "Love Takes Time," which I love the title to as too many love songs give impressions of instant, true blue love. The lyrics to her early material were poetic, sincere, and true to life.

Truth be told, I'm sorry that Mariah became complacent by using music samples, doing covers (where *some* are good, but the majority stink), and teaming up with rappers that did nothing for her musically. She never needed anyone to assist her in the singing department and I'm positive the well of strong, original material hasn't dried up.

Her debut disc is Mariah at her best. I was thoroughly amazed that she managed to release another disc chock-full of hits with "Emotions" just one year later in 1991. To see her have a nervous breakdown, star in a stinker of a movie ("Glitter"), and release an album that actually celebrates an alter-ego (so the story goes. Sounds like split personality syndrome to me) has been disappointing for someone like me who remembers the life Mariah helped breathe back into a music scene that really needed it in 1990.

Regardless, this is a pop music essential. - Donna Di Giacomo

the vision of an amazing voice!.......2006-10-10

Ok this is the one album that made me fall in love with mariah careys voice the most! I listened to this cd all the time and couldnt believe how amazing her voice was every time I listened to it!

I love this one out of all her cds!!

Mariah Carey Enters The Music Scene With Her Debut Album: 3½-4 Stars.......2006-07-21

As Mariah Carey entered the music scene in 1990 with her debut single Vision of Love, she certainly caught the attention of millions. Her brilliant voice combined with excellent pop songs proved to the perfect formula for success. Her self-titled album Mariah Carey sold by the millions, ending up selling over an impressive 15 million copies. However, it was not until Dreamlover was released as the first single from her Music Box album, I paid any attention to the songbird - yet she has become one of the few artists, I always keep an eye on.

As Vision Of Love introduced the world to Mariah Carey, it was obvious that Miss Carey would be a force to reckon with. Her debut single is among my favorite Mariah Carey songs. The impressive pop ballad is a haunting and heartfelt offering. Especially, the part where Mariah repeats the lyrics, twice, is wonderful - it almost functions as a duet. This is Carey, when she is at her absolute best; vocally and musically. There's Got To Be A Way is a lovely up-tempo song about the problems of the world and how, as the title suggests, there has got to be a way to unite the human race, resolving the problems of the world. The catchy chorus is certainly the most memorable part of the song. Another favorite and no.1 single, I believe, is the sad I Don't Wanna Cry, which is an emotional ballad, showcasing Mariah's vocal range. The up-tempo Someday has an infectious beat with lyrics stating that someday a former boyfriend will regret leaving as he will come back, begging to be taken back. The version on the album is quite good; however, the version on Mariah's Unplugged EP album is to be preferred, in my opinion.

Vanishing is the power-ballad of the album. Overall, it is a display of Mariah's various vocal talents. The ''big'' vocals do tend to overshadow the song in general. However, Vanishing is simply impressive both vocally and production-wise. The haunting lyrics and Mariah's emotional voice are a perfect mix. All In Your Mind starts off slowly, soon picks up pace, culminating in the faster chorus. The song is a nice offering and Mariah's acrobatic vocals near the end of the song are impressive. Alone In love is a bland mid-tempo ballad and quite forgettable - except for the vocals of Miss Carey. You Found Me is a mixture between ''rock'' and pop. It is certainly inspired by a tougher sound. I, actually, like the chorus. Sent From Up Above is a tad corny, yet it is still an enjoyable song. Moving on, Prisoner is an up-tempo song with Mariah Carey's attempt at rapping - she does not do a very good job - yet you cannot help smile while Carey does her thing. Unlike others, I simply do not understand the appeal of Love Takes Times. Admittedly, it is a nice ballad but hardly no.1 material nor a Mariah Carey classic. Each to their own liking, I guess.

Mariah's self-titled debut is quite impressive, yet it is not without flaws. There is some of Mariah's best material on the album: Vision Of Love, I Don't Wanna Cry, Someday, Vanishing and All In My Mind. However, her debut album also contains lackluster material: Sent From Up Above, Alone In Love and Prisoner are mediocre material, which keeps the album from receiving a perfect 4. With that being said, the album is still a treat to listen to due to excellent vocals and fantastic pop songs.

Columbia Records rushed this compilation of patriotic and inspirational favorites into production in the wake of the September 11, 2001, attacks. The title song is a new version by Celine Dion similar to the performance she gave on the Tribute to Heroes telethon, while John Mellencamp's "Peaceful World" is included in an alternate, acoustic treatment. Each listener may find his or her own favorites, but few will be left unmoved by a selection that also includes Bruce Springsteen's "Land of Hope and Dreams," Simon & Garfunkel's "Bridge over Troubled Water," and renderings of "America the Beautiful," "This Land Is Your Land," and "Amazing Grace" by, respectively, Frank Sinatra, Pete Seeger, and Tramaine Hawkins. Bill Withers's "Lean on Me" closes the disc on a plainspoken note that perfectly encapsulates the spirit of rescuers and other Americans since the tragedies. A back-cover note promises that a "substantial portion of the proceeds received by Sony Music [Columbia's parent company] from sales of this album will be donated to the Twin Towers Fund." --Rickey Wright

Blown away............2007-03-06

I am not a Celine Dion fan normally, but stumbled onto this mix for many of the other titles on this CD. The brief download does not give her version of God Bless America justice. This arrangement builds slowly, eliciting "what the heck are you listening to?" comments and grows until anyone in listening range has goose bumps. I played it while stopped for hours on the freeway in front of Moore Park College where the long lines formed for Ronald Reagan's casket review and people on the side of the road actually gathered around the car and asked me to replay it. A must for any fan of patriotic music.

Uplifting!.......2005-06-20

This is a very nice patriotic CD with some great songs. My favorites are God Bless America, sung by Celine Dion. America The Beautful, sung by Frank Sinatra. This Land Is Your Land, sung by Peter Seeger. Peaceful World, sung by John Mellencamp. Blowin' In The Wind, sung by Bob Dylan. Bridge Oer Troubled Water, sung by Simon & Garfunkel. Good Bless The U.S.A, sung by Lee Greenwood. And The Star-Spangled Banner, sung by the Mormon Tabernacle Choir. The songs are all beautiful and uplifting!

A Good Americana Compilation.......2003-10-27

This compilation was made soon after the 9/11 in a wake of patriotic feelings among Americans. It comprises songs of different genres, from rock ballads ("Peaceful World" by John Mellencamp, "Lean on Me" by Bill Withers) to ballads ("Bridge over Troubled Water" by Simon&Garfunkel), to big Americana hits ("God Bless America" by Celine Dion, "America the Beautiful" by Frank Sinatra, "This Land Is Your Land" by Pete Seeger, "We Shall Overcome" by Mahalia Jackson) to the National Anthem "The Star Spangled Banner" by the Mormon Tabernacle Choir, plus "Hero" by Mariah Carey, "There's a Hero" by Billy Gilman, and a few more.

This CD is a good compilation of songs that may lift the spirits of the nation, as well as some truly inspirational melodies. Performances by Tramaine Hawkins ("Amazing Grace"), Billy Gilman, Celine Dion, Simon&Garfunkel, Bill Withers are the gems of this CD. The same can be said about the National Anthem, though you might find some acappella version (by Lee Ann Rimes, for example) not less appealing.

Personally I bought this CD because of Lee Greenwood's "God Bless the USA". But this turned out to be the worst track. It is probably some remix. Almost nothing is left from the original version, neither its marching touch, nor the integrity that left your skin covered with goosebumps, inspired you and made you realise the true spirit of American patriotism. The version from this CD is more on the jazz, relaxed side, which is killing for such a song.

On the whole, this CD deserves your attention if you need a compilation of Americana music, or at least a flavour of it.

A great CD, powerful and moving.......2003-10-24

True to its title the music CD God Bless America is a masterful tribute to America. This collection of patriotic music includes many soul-stirring songs; I especially like the selections by Lee Greenwood, Frank Sinatra, and Bill Withers. All of the songs on this CD are powerful and will remind you how great this country truly is.

God Bless America is great for working, driving, or listening to all by itself. I guarantee that you will not regret purchasing this collection of American songs. This CD draws together an immense pool of talent and is extraordinarily successful at illustrating the greatest nation in the world.

Moving Patriotic tribute!!!.......2003-05-25

Well done! Loved Celine Dion's version of God Bless America in tribute for her adopted county. Pete Seeger's This land is your land is equally great. Has the beloved Lee Greenwood's God Bless the USA!

Early buzz on The Emancipation of Mimi predicted that this would be the disc to mark "the return of the voice"--the voice being that glass-shattering instrument that propelled Carey to bestselling female artist of all time status--and mostly it is. But because of the small army of talent involved in its assembly, the album is way more than just a comeback vehicle. For proof, try the straight-ahead, look-out-Beyoncé-Mimi's-still-got-it "Mine Again"; the '70s-soul cuddle-up "Circles," a don't-attempt-on-American Idol love song; or the gospel dazzlers "Fly Like a Bird" and "Stay the Night." But for songs that steer this disc directly into 2005, no looking back, scan the jewel case for tracks followed by the word "featuring": "To the Floor," with Nelly, bumps along to maximum booty-shaking effect, while Twista spins his natural-disaster-force vocals into "One and Only." Snoop Dogg, Pharrell Williams, and Jermaine Dupri also pitch in; between them and the highwire vocals, Emancipation works the kind of pure-pop magic that sets us all free. --Tammy La Gorce

This platinum edition features four tracks not found on the original release: "Don't Forget About Us"; "What It Look Like"; "So Lonely (One & Only Part II)"; and a remix of "We Belong Together" featuring Jadakiss and Styles P.

5 STARS!!!!!.......2007-06-07

I love this album and it is really sad that people are sleeping on it (lol it is six times platinum). This is a complete album that you can listen to from beginning to end. Mariah really did a great job of showing how talented she really is. It is a mixture of everything, this cd is up beat yet laid back, and it's a classic. This is her best album in my opinion and I can't wait for the next one.

MY TOP FIVE (This was a tough selection process b/c the entire album is great)

1. Joy Ride
2. Mine Again
3. Circles
4. Say Something
5. Fly Like a Bird

I never realized fully how good this album is. It's her best since Daydream and Butterfly!!.......2007-05-31

I'm gonna start off by saying that we all shouldn't deny that Mariah's voice isn't what it was back when those previously mentioned albums were released. It's not bad, but it has waned a bit.

But to get to the songs, it seems just like her Daydream album (which is my favorite from her): hit after hit after hit. The only songs I skip sometimes aren't even bad. It's just sometimes Mariah gets the yelling (Circles, Stay The Night) and I have to skip 'em.

If you don't have ANY of Mariah's albums (who wouldn't have at least one?) I would start with either this album or Daydream. If you do get this one, make sure it's the Platinum Edition because the extra songs are worth it. The only reason I could see someone getting the original Emancipation is for the beautiful cover which is superior to this one. But don't both look great?!

Some highlights are Shake It Off, Mine Again, One And Only, Your Girl, Fly Like A Bird and Don't Forget About Us.

I hope you enjoyed my review. Have a look at my others if you would like. ^_~

Mariah Stepped Her Game Up!!!.......2007-02-28

Mariah stepped her game up from her last 2 albums and the buzz was definitely worth it. The first half of the album is good and the end was good, but the middle is a bunch of fillers. "Fly Like A Bird" is definitely the best track you kinda get a feel of the old Mariah back it the 90's. Great job and can't wait for the next album.

Great PURCHASE!.......2007-02-13

THIS CD HAS TO BE ONE OF THE BEST CD'S THAT MARIAH HAS MADE IN A LONG WHILE. GREAT QUALITY, PRICE, AND IT ARRIVED QUICK...THANKS!

Linda Ronstadt was America's sweetheart of the '70s, because she was able to combine a pretty face, a pretty voice and a safe personality. Her songs might be full of big notes and high emotions, but they satisfied every predictable expectation of a love ballad or good-time rocker. Mariah Carey is America's sweetheart of the '90s for the exact same reasons. Music Box topped the Billboard album charts, yielding number-one singles like "Dreamlover" and "Hero." The titles, one a hollow Minnie Riperton knock-off and the other a stiff Barbra Streisand imitation, are tip-offs to Carey's reliance on untethered fantasy (she's the fantasizer in the lyrics and the fantasy object in the videos). These songs, coªwritten and co-produced like most of the album by Walter Anasieff and Carey herself, are constructed to show off her dizzying soprano, not to provide an original approach to a well-worn subject. Even when she gets a strong ballad to sing, like her current singles--Babyface's "Never Forget You" or Badfinger/Nilsson's "Without You"--she overdoes the self-pity bit so much that the song loses its dramatic tension. --Geoffrey Himes

Open up the box - and enjoy!.......2007-02-21

The three tracks I came to know via heavy radio airplay in the early-90s were "Dreamlover," "Hero," and "Music Box," but it wasn't until now that I finally got my hands on this gem of a CD, and I'm sorry it's taken me so much time to catch up on some great pop music.

I still can't get enough of the rhythm of "Dreamlover," and "Anytime You Need A Friend" is right up there with Dionne Warwick's (et al) "That's What Friends Are For." The title track itself is a very pretty ballad.

This is Mariah Carey at the top of her game. She would do it one more time with "DayDream," but then sink into doing more covers and duets as the 90s went on (and I'll never figure out why because she sure didn't need help in the singing department!).

The CD is 42 minutes exactly, and it's time well spent. - Donna Di Giacomo

Bonus track missing.......2006-10-30

The album was first rate..except the bonus track (on the orginal CD).."Everything Fades Away" was missing.... This bonus track was a highlight was ordering the product online...else the CD quality,re- mastering..the packaging etc are all superb..

Flawless.......2006-10-28

This is one of my favorite CD's of all time! Mariah's voice is outstanding, and several of her biggest hits were on this CD, including the beautiful and inspirational "Hero," the song that will get stuck in your head (and your I-pod) for days "Dreamlover," and the heartache-filled "Without You," to name a few.
The truth is that every track on this CD is fabulous. I would highly recommend it to anyone!

Emotions and her christmas album.
Vocally it wa majorlly impressive and it sounded great
there were no songs on here I didn't like.

Fluffy But Satisfying.......2006-08-15

Although she has an undeniably good voice, I'm still not much of a Mariah fan. Her lyrics are ridiculously school-girlish and she never patricuarly personal (with the possible exception of 1997's "Close My Eyes"). Worse, she always seems to stay in her comfort zone and rarely tries anything new.
However, this album shows decent effort. It's no masterpiece, but at least it showcases her voice well. Plus, she wisely brings in such formidable collaborators such as Babyface and the C+C Music Factory to improve her corny sound.

Dreamlover- 9/10- this is a good song. Some bizarre lyrics like "the kind of love that won't fly away", but at least it has a nice beat.

Hero- 8/10- not a big fan of this song. It's meaningful, but it seems like she's desperatly trying to suck up to her fans.

Anytime You Need a Friend- 10/10- nice gospel song.

Music Box- 8/10- I though it would be a up-tempo track, but it's yet another lame ballad.

Now That I KNow- 10/10- Great disco song. Like this one.

Never Forget You- 10/10- pretty good. Babyface is always reliable.

'Emotions' Runs High and Shows Mariah's Vocal Range To Great Effect.......2007-07-07

Not one to contently bask in the glow of her burning fame in the early 1990's, Mariah Carey grabbed her lunch pail and quickly churned out a very enjoyable follow-up to her debut smash 'Mariah Carey'. With the enormous success of her first CD, it was an intimidating act for any artist to follow it up. But she succeeds admirably with 'Emotions'.

It shows Mariah was no fluke, displaying notes and pitch-perfect vocals that even today very few female singers can match. But not all the songs are keepers. I usually play only the first 5 songs and skip the last 5. My favorite is still 'Make It Happen'. The power and range Mariah displays on this track is remarkable. She pierces the heavens with her high notes and enormous lung power. I think Mariah really sings this song like she means it because she's writing the song from personal experience to not give up on her dreams of 'Making It'.

I think Tommy Mottola used 'Emotions' as a follow-up CD to spotlight Mariah's voice more so than the songs themselves. You can hear every part of Mariah's vocal range in the choice of songs on this CD. Obviously her upper range gets more of a workout on this CD than any other one in her entire Sony/Virgin/Island catalog. I think 'Emotions' was released as a vehicle to show her vocal chops and it succeeded in every way.

I wouldn't say the quality of songs is right up there compared with her debut CD or later ones (especially 'Daydreams'), but her vocal high register has never sounded better. Keep that tea kettle whistling, Mariah !

This hasn't aged at all.......2007-01-21

While never a mega-fan of Mariah's, I was bowled over by her voice, the fact that she wrote her own songs, and that she released another album full of strong material just a little over a year after her debut. Some folks would have suffered creative burnout, but Mariah was just getting started.

I bought a copy of her self-titled 1990 debut, but I never did get around to owning a copy of "Emotions" (something that's going to change very soon). I don't why because I remember "Emotions," "Can't Let Go" (which, as much as I roll my eyes over love songs, has one of the prettiest melodies I've ever heard with a love song), and "Make It Happen" getting constant radio airplay in 1991 - and I enjoyed those songs each and every time.

Her lyrics were poetic and struck a chord with the then-teenager me, and her sound, while pop, had strong soulful overtones. She helped continue breathing life into a stale music scene and that feeling still resonates with me a little over 15 years after its release.

It can't be said enough that "Emotions" is classic 90s, is a great addition to the CD collection, and is Mariah at the top of her game.

And, best of all, the album's sound doesn't sound aged. - Donna Di Giacomo

Mariah Carey Causes Emotions: 4-4½ stars.......2006-07-26

As Mariah Carey released her second album in 1991, an enormous pressure laid on her shoulders to follow up the success of her debut album. Despite the fact that sales of Emotions did not reach the same level as Mariah Carey, it still manage to do extremely well, selling over a whopping 10 million copies. Not bad for a sophomore album!

The title-track Emotions was released to audience as the lead single, providing listeners with a contagious pop beat. The song displays Mariah's high pitch notes and awesome background vocals which include Trez Lorenz and David Cole. And You Don't Remember is a superb ballad where Mariah's pleading voice belts out how her lover does not remember the love, they shared. The chorus is a delight to listen too - simply wonderful. My favourite song on the album is up next; the splendid Can't Let Go. It is no wonder that many consider it among Mariah's best ballads to date. Released as a single, the groovy Make It Happen got stuck at the no.2 position, I recall. However, the teasingly song is a wonderful treat. The overall message of the song: You should never give up, work hard and your dreams will come true in the end. If It's Over, a collaboration between Mariah and Carole King, has a taunt of a jazzy mood to it. Mariah Carey belts out the chorus powerfully. Once again, I prefer the Unplugged version - however, this is purely a matter of taste.

You're So Cold starts of with Mariah's praticing her vocal cords, functioning as a build-up to the actual song. The lyrics are a tad annoying, yet the song is still quite joyous. Albums tend to get weaker at the end, which is also the case with Emotions. To Be Around You, Till The End of Time and The Wind are likeable songs, however they do not hold up well against the rest of the album's excellent songs. The ballad-like So Blessed is another highlight of mine. The dreamy melody culminates with the more aggressive chorus especially the belting of the words ''You are my heart'' followed by the softer ''My everthing'''.

Emotions is one of Mariah Carey's best studio-albums, in my opinion. The combination of brilliant pop ballads and excellent up-tempo songs are clearly present on the album. If you are a big fan of Mariah's poppier songs or crafted pop songs in general, Emotions will surely be a safe bet. The only complaint I have with the album is that some of the material is a tad weak compared to the brilliant songs, which are to be found on Emotions; however, this is hardly abnormal. Emotions is a very solid effort and a better album than Mariah's debut.

Overall Rating: 8.5/10

Fantastic.......2006-02-18

Mariah Carey burst onto the music scene with her fantastic self-titled debut album, and followed it up with her second album "Emotions". Essentially "Emotions" is in the same mould as her first album - beautiful vocals, heartfelt lyrics and an emotional connection with every songs.
Standouts in this album include:
"Emotions" - a good dancing track that features Mariah's piercing vocals.
"Can't Let go" - a beautiful ballad. One of Mariah's best songs
"Make it Happen" - A description of Mariah's life prior to becoming a superstar. Very catchy and uplifting
"The wind" - Very last track of the album. Mournful, breathtaking vocals combined with Mariah's sombre voice. Truly Phenomenal
Emotions is a truly magnificent album, featuring a wonderful collection of songs, each one a true delight to listen to.
