Rotunda Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 As someone who doesn’t really follow Mariah and has only heard like half her discography - these are the ones I’ve heard referenced outside of stans: Vision Of Love Emotions Hero Fantasy One Sweet Day Always Be My Baby My All We Belong Together Touch My Body AIWFCIY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mandalay Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 "I'll be there" is definitely remembered. "One Sweet Day" too. With the rise of RnB and 90s nostalgia plus really good music, I'd say "Honey", "Heartbreaker" etc also have potential. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No wonder I've never heard of any Madonna's song when I was a kid. Well... Yeah. They’re ok. In fairness, Hung Up and Material Girl never went #1 and they pull decent numbers. The irony is that the Madonna stan was implying that OSD/WBT have poor streams. Meanwhile, OSD is pulling more average streams than all but 3 of M’s #1s on Spotify (outstreams them all on YouTube) and WBT outstreams every single one of them except LAP on Spotify. It’s a self-drag I won’t even go there with the Xtina fan. There’s always some other unknowable metric they refer to when you show them clear as day Mariah is stomping compared to other legacy acts. They essentially said Christina has no remembered songs (which in fairness is probably true). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homebrand Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 I mean she has 19, so obviously not all of them will be remembered.. But it would be absolutely absurd to not acknowledge the below are classics like Always Be My Baby Fantasy We Belong Together AIWFCIY I'd also argue other songs like My All, Honey, Heartbreaker, Vision Of Love, Emotions are somewhat remembered as well.

thetea Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 (edited) I hear most of them on the radio, and people around me know her songs. She was hugely popular in NZ in the 90s so most people that were young at the time know them. I wasn't one of them, but my mum was so she knows all of these songs besides Thank God I Found You and she wasn't even a mariah fan or listener. Here are the ones I'd say are remembered and the ones I hear personally Vision Of Love Love Takes Time Someday I Don't Wanna Cry Emotions I'll Be There Dreamlover Hero Fantasy One Sweet Day Always Be My Baby Honey My All Heartbreaker Thank God I Found You We Belong Together Touch My Body All I Want For Christmas is You I hear Heartbreaker a lot. It's a classic at island birthdays and parties. Edited May 11, 2022 by thetea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone else has enough sense to know it’s viewed as one of her forgotten #1s ur embarrassing. just stop OT: I forgot about Don't Forget About Us but thats probably tied with TGIFY and IDWC as her most forgotten #1s.

No wonder I've never heard of any Madonna's song when I was a kid. I didn't either, as a child I had honestly never heard any of her music. I grew up with Mariah in the background, especially ABMB, Fantasy, WBT, TMB but I never really paid attention to her until I bought Merry Christmas on CD and got into her discography from there. It's weird how people make Madonna seem like she has way more streams and attention than Mariah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pecinta Mariah Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 11 hours ago, Mitsouko said: I'd say anyone who paid attention to pop music, listened to the radio, and turned on MTV at least once every calendar year from 1990-2005 remembers the vast majority if not all of her hits. Well maybe not TGIFY but still. Something is remembered if it is recalled in the memory of someone who experienced it; it does not mean that it is recognizable to people who weren't born yet. Ask any 45 year old pop or R&B fan in the US or UK if they remember her early hits and they will say yes. Very well said Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harrier Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 About half are not remembered but that's what happened when you have 19 #1 hits. Even the Beatles probably don't have that many remembered classics, it's a ridiculous standard to put on Mariah Just bc some of you were born after Mariah's 90s peak doesn't mean she wasn't a huge artist.
