    THAT ENDING- I challenge you to find someone better at vocal layering!! Mariah doesn’t just sing a song, but paints a rich and subtle portrait through her harmonies, lyrics and vocal layers. The song becomes a canvas for the mood she is trying to convey. No second is wasted. The attention to detail is remarkable and is what sets her apart from her peers.

    The Caution era was about repairing Mariah's public image after Stella's reign of terror and it succeeded, she scored her 27th Top 10 hit on the Adult Contemporary Chart with With You and she scored her 19th #1 on the Hot 100 the following year which would've been impossible if Mariah hadn't laid the groundwork with Caution. I can't wait to see what Mariah does next because the stage is set for an Emancipation sized comeback.

    Dare I say it, but i shall: CAUTION is my most mostest fave album from Mariah's whole catalog of music since her first album MARIAH CAREY. Every cut is so sharp and deep that I am decapitated every time. Not snatched but beheaded. From opening song GTFO to the last cut PORTRAIT. There are hidden vocal gems that I always discover every time i listen to it. Only MC can structure a song with so many layers of beautiful vocals that may not necessarily require any music. I LOVE ME SOME MC to the nth Degree.

    Giving me life and it's everything
    Thinkin' 'bout when we were seventeen
    Feeling myself like I'm Norma Jeane
    Here in my arms is where you should be
    It wasn't really
    It wasn't really much
    It wasn't really much at all
    It wasn't really
    It wasn't really
    It wasn't really much at all
    My philosophy doesn't quite apply to you and me
    But I won't think too much
    So c'mon and feel my touch
    It wasn't really much at all
    Just a little sensitivity of the soul
    Here in my heart is where you should be
    Oh you are
    Giving me life and it's everything
    Thinkin' 'bout when we were seventeen
    Living like Babs 'cause it's Evergreen
    Here in my arms is where you should be
    It wasn't really
    It wasn't really much
    It wasn't really much at all
    (It really wasn't) it wasn't really
    It wasn't really
    It wasn't really much at all
    Whats up ma? Hush got fly
    Here's a ques', why you left, was it my messed up eye?
    Why? Reminisce wanna be huncy hun
    Follow sheep, from was the first chick, Clarks Wallabees on
    Swag honey drip, spending some time
    Remember them rhymes? Your gold fronts look better than mines did
    What's ecstasy, pounding in the BM'
    Cloud a million, that was way before war, gowns in the skier
    Giving me life
    Giving me life and it's everything (Mariah Carey)

    lyric (like, cause i'm quick, right)
    Mariah Carey:]
    It wasn't really
    It wasn't really
    It wasn't really much at all
    It wasn't really
    So, it's summertime, a splash of wine and forget about it
    If you're so inclined, let's take a ride tonight
    So then maybe if the stars align, we'll fix our minds on another tangent
    And it's kinda like impossible to top this at all
    Giving me life and it's everything
    Thinkin' 'bout when we were seventeen
    Feeling myself like I'm Norma Jeane
    Here in my arms is where you should be
    It wasn't really
    It wasn't really much
    It wasn't really much at all
    It wasn't really
    It wasn't really
    It wasn't really much at all
    My philosophy doesn't quite apply to you and me
    But I won't think too much, so come and feel my touch
    It wasn't really much at all, just a little sensitivity of the soul
    Here in my heart is where you should be, ooh you are
    Giving me life and it's everything
    Thinkin' 'bout when we were seventeen
    Living like Babs 'cause it's Evergreen
    Here in my arms is where you should be
    It wasn't really

  • @Sanjinator1
    @Sanjinator1 6 ปีที่แล้ว +41

    The way Mariah's harmonizing in the background with the guitar @5:30 onwards I feel is a throw back to You Need Me's closing note where she imitates a soaring electric guitar by her whistle register during the fade out. Beautiful craftsmanship from her back then and I'm glad she's maintaining that level of intimate detail after all these years. What an artist!

  • @GLamoRousCooKie
